i remember seeing this as a kid on hbo or something in the early 90s and just being mesmerized by the animation and the idea of animal people. Later on the internet would call these things furries...
It good they made female characters look more... well female, and just get reminded of that Robot Chicken episode where Mickey and Donald at the bar with the joke "she looks like me, but in drag". but I think that near identical "twins" couple joke/gag, is more strange. and alot of old cartoons have that, heck Micky and Minnie is a good example for it.
yeah see, right there. a lot of old cartoon couple's look like twins then a couple. I guess it post to be a gag of "they do things identically together they starting to look like each other" but... they look like twins not a couple, so you get females that are cookie cutter of the males but in pink and a bow on their head instead. it just funny
Bobby Nick Well it depends. It’s not always a good thing. Sometimes it looks stupid. For example, the male animals look like animals on two legs, but females look humans with an animals head. I hate that. Also it depend on what the artist are going for. If they want their animals to look like animals on twos or cartoony then it should apply to both sexes. If the females are going to have female features and a female body shape, then it should apply to males, but masculine. In a show called Bluey (2018). All the dogs look like walking squares and circles. It would look ridiculous if only the males look like that, but females are more human looking. They have no human features (the males have a mustache without looking too human) because the creators don’t want them to look too human. They found other ways to make the bitches different from the dogs without sexualizing them or making them look like twins.
Bobby Nick Well it’s no different with the males either. If the females have to look more female, then males have to look more male. None of that crap where the males look cartoony or normal animals on twos and females are way more humanized. It’s off putting. There are ways to make a character look like a girl without making her look like a twin or making them so different that the males look like normal animals. There is no reason for the female animals to have a human body while the male has an animal body. Either both have human like bodies or not. Also making them female in the face, not just eyelashes; a smaller muzzle. In other words, give them a feminine looking head and faces. Also being smaller in size/slimmer (unless their a spider or other animals where the girls are bigger) is good enough. Boobs, butt and curves aren’t the only thing that makes a character girly looking. After all if the male animals don’t have to look like men then why should the female animals have to look like women? Think of the otters from Zoopotia. It shows that they can look like females without looking sexy or looking like a twin. Also speaking of looking like twins, well the males look like the twins to their girls just as well? so why should it be only the girls that have to look like female humans? Isn’t the face and being slimmer/smaller in size just as good?🤷🏽
Bobby Nick I get that people have to know that they’re girls, but there are other ways besides boobs or a bow. Making them sleeker and daintier is one of them. Also just the voice alone is good enough (for the deaf or for reading comics, well just read).
Animalympics, a movie like no other -I guess?- hehe, this IS an awesome movie indeed. And the way You explained Furries and anthropomorphic animals was more mature than I usually see. More understanding, more acceptance, and a more civilized manner.
I love this movie. I always enjoy looking at the animation and art style . I'm a sucker for films with anthropomorphic animals. I'm one of the few people who likes Fritz the Cat.
Saw this thing years ago loved it! Got I downloaded copy but mostly just check into youtube to listen to the last song with rene and kit. It's what made this movie so great to me, it just stuck in my head for so long. Glad you did this review very amazed to find out that some of the top people who created some great animated movies where a part of this project. I think that this movie should be shown in animation classes to inspire others that unknown projects do help bring bring about talent an are loved by people.
Would be nice to see Zootopia throw a few references to Animalympics somewhere in the film. Like, a quick blink-and-you'll-miss-it shot of a poster of Bolt Jenkins in "Crocky 5" or a news ticker talking about Tatyana Tushenko training a new generation of young gymnasts or a Dean Wilson biography on how he won his gold metals while on seaweed. Okay, that last one probably wouldn't happen but still. ^_^
This is one of the first movies I really just watched repeatedly, and has been a favorite since I was about 5-6. It's a shame more people don't know about it. I even love the music, and I tend towards darker, heavier sounds. Still not a fan of 10cc, but Graham Gouldman is okay in my book. Great voice acting, excellent for the time animation, and memorable characters.
I remember seeing this on the Disney Channel late at night and have never seen it again, but I was so captivated by this movie and it's great to see people talking about it because I was starting to think I was crazy! No one else I have talked to has seen this!!!
@@SpencerStudios mind you this was back in high school... like YEARS ago... speaking of Years ago. What are you doing replying to a 7 year old comment?
I remember liking this as a kid, particularly the longer song sequences - although I swear I thought Fleetwood Mac's 'Everywhere' was the song playing during Kit and René' s first romantic montage...can anyone help clear that up, was that just on the European VHS release? It's a shame Fantasia 2 didn't turn out more like the animated montages from this film - it would have been amazing. Aside from that though, although I can understand someone wanting to offer another persepctive on a film they like, there's little point if it's going to be biased - and it must be said this was rather. Not pointing out that both the different male and female lions running in the 100m and the marathon had the exact same name, and that this was repeated throughout - although repeating character designs saves on time and money, nothing was done to try and make them appear different from each other, and it would have taken no time at all to at least come up with different names for them. If your curious, the reason the German slalom skiing dog ( wow, those are words I just typed ) left straight after winning the event was because when he was lost on the mountain during training, he became exaused and imagined some sort of 'Dog-grila' - like Shangrila. This distracted him until he remembered the competition, so he returned to take part but wanted to go back and find Dog-Grila again - if it was real...you even showed that song section when talking about the music. I really enjoyed this as a kid - and even at that age it was the music that I remembered long afterwards - and the awesome montages - but I'll admit it has its flaws. This review seems to have a bit of a - 'these guys don't like a movie I love as much as they should, so they're wrong!' vibe to it.
This movie influenced my childhood so much. Yes, it's an animated film but especially the soundtrack combined with the scenes make the movie worth to watch. Especially the lyrics of "Born to lose" and "Love's not for me" tell us much about life and choices. If you didn't see the movie so far, don't miss it!
Yes I found this movie by accident looking for Another animal based sport cartoon. I also like this one a bit. There are just things for the time era that I like. I did´t live during it but just like how things were back then and the Music. The style of animation is so varied. There is no clear way to say why I like it but I do enjoy it a lot.
I was so glad when you decided to review this after Brad! Not that I disliked his, but I always enjoyed your more enthusiastic take on a cartoon movie (special?) I grew up with, as opposed to his more 'meh' attitude towards it. Plus I enjoy it more now that I have a pet tortoise of my own! He's smaller than your Babs, and his name is Sheldon. :3
I still love this movie I actually just finished watching it on RUclips about an hour ago LOL I like the music think it's an adorable movie and it's one of my favorite ones that I grew up with
LOVED!!!!! this movie as a kid, especially the Howard Cosell sounding sportscaster, and wasn't the surfing otter named Brian Wilson (also the name of the beach boys lead singer).
yeah, #Saberspark reviewed this special and was glad to see he shot you a shout out from it. Which is cool =) He credited you for it too with a link in the description.
I enjoy the movie because it is kind of one of a kind. Besides being an animated sports movie with anthropomorphic animals as presented by an unorthodox narrative, it's sense of humor is very satirical. In fact, the humor feels like something from the early Warner Bros cartoons or something out of the Simpsons (appropriate given that Brad Bird worked on this).
I love Animallympics since i was a Child!😍 And i still Love that Movie!😍 It's one if my absolutley Favorite Movies!😍 I always watch it normally during the Summer Olympics😍 and during the Winter Olympics!😍 But Today i have super duper ultra mega hyper giga lust to watch it now!😍 By the Way: Go for it frim the Animallympics Sondtrack,😍 is one of my absolutely Favorite Moviesongs!😍
I was at a furry convention this last weekend and they showed both the winter and summer Olympics at a theater there. It was fun to watch both full movies. Freaking furries
Oda Swifteye I was part of it before the English dub and when it came it was time for me to quit before it got worst. I think China's voice and Egypt's bleached skin was my breaking point
LOVE this movie and wish the whole thing were still on here, or Netflix, but at least it's getting a DVD release in April!! :D The animation is definitely very similar to that of VideoSmarts, the awesome 80s interactive educational series for kids.
When I watched this I always wondered why so many characters are looking upwards when they first open their eyes. Like 15:57 (her eyes are up THERE), you may notice she's looking upwards for some reason.
Some resin could see Animalympics get a remake or something close to it, maybe a series to it self done in today's time maybe? The animation was pretty good from what was seen in the review.
I really want to get my hands on that detective comic he showed a few pages of. Not only do I love that kind of story, the art/setting looks awesome. :D
MrGregorychant fair warning, he doesn't care for MLP anymore. It's a long story I'd rather not dig up. Still, I do love CR's channel, he's a great guy.
I've always really liked this movie/special/somethingorother, I can see it getting a spiritual sequel one of these days You probably don't need them, but here are some suggestions for future Familar Faces episodes: Polly Ester from Samurai Pizza Cats Marina Liteyears from Mischief Makers Unico from the anime of the same name Earthworm Jim Ami and Yumi from Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi Lenny Loosejocks Bartok from Anastasia and Bartok the Magnificent
TheIOfIt No, Polly Esther since everyone knows Samurai Pizza Cats is a shining example of the English dub being vastly superior to the original Japanese dub ;)
+Dracomut I believe that the closer a dub is to the Japanese version, the better it is. Sure, you may have to edit it to make it more kid-friendly or explain some things to the American audience, but the closer it is, the better it is. Kyatto Ninden Teyandee? NOT ANYWHERE NEAR close. In fact, I consider them two separate series!
TheIOfIt That is kinda silly to be frank. Several jokes don't translate well and good luck having good grammar with direct translations. Look at earlier anime, there is a good reason translators today experiment more with loose dubs
watching this after saberspark's clickbait-y 'FURRY OLYMPICS???!!' vid on animalympics, it's refreshing to see this again and hear somebody talk about the 'furry' aspect without sounding embarrased about it.
Amongst all the animated movies with anthro characters I had no clue this one even existed, and I must say I was surprised by some designs! That mink dancer, it's so weird yet so elegant.
This was one of my favorite movies growing up, and to this day even though I’m 32 years old I still,continuously watch it on RUclips. I even own the record of the soundtrack, and I love the songs so much I play it quit often lol.
My personal favorite episode of Familiar Faces!
GrizzlyAdams94 same for me. This introduced me to this movie for the first time and it's become an all time favorite for me
Love this movie. One of the purest forms of nostalgia for me. An underrated gem.
i remember seeing this as a kid on hbo or something in the early 90s and just being mesmerized by the animation and the idea of animal people. Later on the internet would call these things furries...
Sometimes I long for the simplicity of my younger days...
It good they made female characters look more... well female,
and just get reminded of that Robot Chicken episode where Mickey and Donald at the bar with the joke "she looks like me, but in drag".
but I think that near identical "twins" couple joke/gag, is more strange.
and alot of old cartoons have that,
heck Micky and Minnie is a good example for it.
+Bobby Nick I used to think that Mickey and Minnie were siblings.
yeah see, right there.
a lot of old cartoon couple's
look like twins then a couple.
I guess it post to be a gag of "they do things
identically together they starting to look like each other"
but... they look like twins not a couple,
so you get females that are cookie cutter of the males but in pink and a bow on their head instead.
it just funny

hehe, this IS an awesome movie indeed. And the way You explained Furries and anthropomorphic animals was more mature than I usually see. More understanding, more acceptance, and a more civilized manner.
I love Animalympics too. My mother got me a T-shirt with ice skating flamingo and my brother the high diving sea otter.
Later releases were censored
The animals represented continents, not countries
I watch this movie every Olympic year.
Thank you for a balanced review of what is a fun movie! I am proud to say I actually own the soundtrack on vinyl!

I grew up watching Animalympics, and I love it. The fencing scene I reenacted with my sister, it was fun kids stuff.
Cat Butt and Bitchtits always makes me laugh because I remember calling my friends "Bitchtits."
You really need more friends than the stray dog you found in the alleyway.
@@SpencerStudios mind you this was back in high school... like YEARS ago... speaking of Years ago. What are you doing replying to a 7 year old comment?
Great video. I just found Animalympics and it brought back some wonderful memories. Nice way to help me think through why this is such a special film.
I remember watching this as a kid, thank you for bringin' it back.
Now, I have to search a copy.
its coming to dvd in america on 4/3/2018
Animalympics was not meant to be a three act movie format. It was supposed to simulate the semi-live tv report format of the actual Olympic Games.
I absolutely love this movie! Thank you. Kitt & Rene forever!
I love this movie so much! Thank you for letting me know they came out with vinyls of the movie soundtrack! It's on my wishlist now!

Love the Blacksad books.
"They're Canadian" When he gets pissed and takes to the ice the soundtrack is a rocking rendition of Oh Canada, that wasn't a big enough clue?
11:28 is what awakened things in me in my formative years, I just know it
You see, that's where the trouble began, that damn river otter's smile.
LOVED!!!!! this movie as a kid, especially the Howard Cosell sounding sportscaster, and wasn't the surfing otter named Brian Wilson (also the name of the beach boys lead singer).
Graham Gouldman's soundtrack goes hard AF. I still listen to it to this day. Graham was Phil Collins on an animated soundtrack before Phil Collins.
NBC also aired McKenna Shoots for the Stars in 2012 during the Olympics a few years ago
yeah, #Saberspark reviewed this special and was glad to see he shot you a shout out from it. Which is cool =)
He credited you for it too with a link in the description.
You probably forgot to mention Bill Kroyer who worked on the direct to video pilot episode of Computer Warriors. Also, Kit Mambo was voiced by a dude.

I really want to get my hands on that detective comic he showed a few pages of. Not only do I love that kind of story, the art/setting looks awesome. :D
Good luck finding it. But it's worth it.
Looking back on this, _Sing_ is basically a spiritual successor to this movie. I wonder if any of the people responsible had it in mind.
The hockey team being canadian, the rock and roll rendition of Oh Canada when he goes tearing down the ice on a breakaway wasn't enough of a hint?
19:14
Ah, _The Great Mouse Detective._ So many memories... ^////^
Gotta admit I don't remember seeing that scene at all.

I wondered why Chris Antista of Laser Time was so keen on this movie. Now I get it.

"... what with yer freakin' awesome themesong!"
Yes, that I never want to try playing on Guitar Hero ever again.
Is that RD cutie mark pin I see behind that tortoise? I see what you did there. Hey, well, I just discovered your channel. Subscribed!

You probably don't need them, but here are some suggestions for future Familar Faces episodes:

Unico from the anime of the same name
Earthworm Jim
Ami and Yumi from Hi Hi Puffy Ami Yumi
Lenny Loosejocks
Bartok from Anastasia and Bartok the Magnificent

No, Polly Esther since everyone knows Samurai Pizza Cats is a shining example of the English dub being vastly superior to the original Japanese dub ;)
+Dracomut They had to REWRITE the entire dub!
TheIOfIt
Indeed, and they did unbelievably well
+Dracomut I believe that the closer a dub is to the Japanese version, the better it is. Sure, you may have to edit it to make it more kid-friendly or explain some things to the American audience, but the closer it is, the better it is. Kyatto Ninden Teyandee? NOT ANYWHERE NEAR close.

That is kinda silly to be frank. Several jokes don't translate well and good luck having good grammar with direct translations. Look at earlier anime, there is a good reason translators today experiment more with loose dubs
20:27 That image kinda summed up this idea that I came up: the Zombie Hockey League.
Always loved Animalympics. Would have been great to see a sequel where all the gold medalists are presenters of their sport
I just watched this Movie. I must have an old cartoon watching vibe going on
Gary Mathers, A play on Jerry Mathers , The beaver on leave it to beaver, clever little movie this is.
watching this after saberspark's clickbait-y 'FURRY OLYMPICS???!!' vid on animalympics, it's refreshing to see this again and hear somebody talk about the 'furry' aspect without sounding embarrased about it.
Reupload?
I have to wonder if the hockey war scenes was inspired by Disney's Goofy sports animations.
Amongst all the animated movies with anthro characters I had no clue this one even existed, and I must say I was surprised by some designs!
That mink dancer, it's so weird yet so elegant.
Real animators actually study this as a masterpiece. I know...
Now out on Region 1 DVD.
