The Rescuers Down Under IS an extraordinary film! It was my favorite adventure film when growing up, and I still love it to this day. I can't believe it's underrated; it's awesome!
+joyunicycle I agree completely!! Everything about this film was done with outstanding excellence. It's such a shame it never got the recognition it deserves. In my opinion, it is because the original was not nearly as good so people never gave this one a chance.
+Steven L I actually think it should be in "Kingdom Hearts" now that I think of it. You know, Sora and company helping Penny escape from the clutches of Madam Medusa with Bernard and Bianca? Who doesn't want to see that?
joyunicycle It was originally supposed to be released August 3,1990, but since Ghost was doing so great at the Box Office, they decided to reissue Snow White instead and hold off on releasing Rescuers Down Under until the Holiday Season believing their only competition would be Rocky 5. Neither MGM/UA nor Disney suspected a Holiday Hurricane called “Hurricane Home Alone” that was about to hit. This little Holiday Family Comedy opened the same weekend as both films and DROWNED out both Rocky and The Rescuers Down Under. When Katzenberg saw the opening weekend returns, he immediately cried uncle and pulled advertising of the film and begin cutting down on the theaters playing it.
I loved this film. A rare phenomenon in that Disney actually managed to pull off a really great sequel that even actually stands alone as a solo film in it's own right! I love The Rescuers Down Under, and hey about time Australia, some of it's scenery, culture, accents, and animals were used! What few people will fully appreciate is all the beautiful colours used in this film, Australia has such richness of tone in it's different colours in the earth the mountains the cliffs and rocks the landscape throughout this vast wilderness is truly breathtaking! I'm still amused by the pilot announcement on the plane I was on, having a window seat and being my first flight to Australia I was so keen to look at all the scenery from London England right across the world via the route taken, but I knew we were flying over Australia before the announcement because the depth of the Red colour in the earth is unique to Australia it's so beautiful. So I knew that we were above Australian land before the announcement. I spent several weeks in Australia and the flora and fauna can't be beaten!
I miss disney old films, not only the 2d artstyle looks more appealing to me but their sequels were soooooooo GOOD! Unique villian design, they actually look terrifying, amazing scenery and shots. Like nowadays they make all the characters look like elsa-_- amd and the sequel is often foreseen.... Disney misses the magic that those movies used to have.
By far the all time greatest sequel Disney has ever done EVER you will NEVER find a better Disney sequel in a million years years as quotable and memorable as this.
It is a shame this film has never gotten the recognition that it clearly earned and deserves. Professionally it is on the same level as Beauty and the Beast as well as The Lion King. However, the first rescuers was not nearly as well done ... so I think people were not willing to give this one a chance. Also, Home Alone also came out in 1990 which added some very stiff competition.
Yeah, It seemed so. Well, many things in that movie were pretty good, including the flight scenes with that eagle, the animation and such. McLeach was a damn good villain and George C. Scott did a good job to voice him on it. It just that the first Rescuers wasn't the best, which I think that's the reason why it didn't do too good in the box office. I liked the original part of the story, just not too keen on the rescue mission part since it is like The Rescuers in the way.
When i was a kid this one was my favourite disney movie, and it still holds up incredibly well! Imo it was amazing but it didn't do well because it came out with friggin home alone! I want to see it in 3D but i feel like we'll never see a theater re-release :(
デルプKafei It was obliterated by Home Alone. And also went up against Rocky 5. But Rocky got it worse. I was 7 when it opened. I knew it was going to lose against Home Alone.
I've had this movie on VHS for ages, so if it was not for you uploading this I would've never seen this unless I somehow got enough cash to buy DVD versions of all my VHS tapes. Thanks so much!
I think you forgot to actually mention that this is rare, that Disney actually produced a really great sequel with superb characters, good storyline and superb animation and colours full stop! The scenery, and colours captured in this are breathtaking and so accurate, same goes for the accents. Shame they've not used Australia and all it has to offer again!
Fay Goodwin Fun Fact: The Score was Composed by Bruce Broughton. Who ALSO composed the Music for Tiny Toon Adventures the same year! You can here Tiny Toons sounding music in its score!
It was literally the only animated sequel because it was the first (This is Post-Mermaid and Pre-Beauty). I think sequels get a bad rap, but it's nice to just see the characters again. (: I love almost all of the sequels. Plus, unlike remakes, they actually had to create their own storylines.
EmmanuelleLunada2010 Blame Home Alone. It was a Box Office Tsunami that wiped out all competition. Honestly, Disney miscalculated. The film was supposed to be released in August of 1990, but instead they decided to reissue Snow White, Simply put, Nobody not even Disney saw the Home Alone Hurricane that roared in that November. UA/MGM was so caught off guard by Home Alone’s Stunning Phenomenal Success, they pulled Rocky 5 out of theaters after just a month.
Omg this movie should be EPIC in 3d, it used many rotative surfaces that should work perfectly in 3d :) The flights scenes are awesome, I used to wait for an attraction at disneyland, like flying with the eagle or something, but it never come :( They prefer spaceship :(
@@jamessparkman6604 You can get someone to fill her shoes. It won't be same grant it, but that shouldn't disqualify the concept from ever getting off the ground.
Too bad they never showed Frank the Lizard and his pals getting freed from the cages. But it’s highly likely that Frank used his tail to pick at the lock again and then get the keys and frees his pals and they all got out
I wonder if that's why they didn't put sequels in theaters like bambi(but it's a midquel) Cinderella 2&3 dreams come true and a twist in time Peter pan return to Neverland(well that came in theaters) lady and the tramp 2 scamp's adventure 101 dalmatians 2 patch's London adventure the jungle book 2(well that was also in theaters too)the fox and the hound 2(well I don't know where that film takes place before they were adults) the little mermaid 2 return to the sea beauty and the beast the enchanted Christmas Aladdin return of jafar Aladdin and the king of thieves (well that takes place after the series on tv)the lion king 2 simba's pride pocahontas 2 journey to a new world the hunchback of Notre dame 2 mulan 2 Atlantis milo's return lilo and stitch stitch has a glitch stitch the movie Leroy and stitch(well that movie takes place after the series) brother bear 2 if that's why Disney didn't want to put them in theaters if the originals are better
@@RaptureMusicOfficial Computer animation just doesn't have the wow factor it used to in the 90s and 2000s, and when CG animation is the practically the only thing today it becomes boring. I like options. I hope hand drawn has a renaissance in some way.
NO! Releasing old cartoon movies in 3D means they must fiddle too much with the image, ruining the charm of the original animation. They ruined Beauty and The Beast with that crap, the animation looks so cheap in the bluray release, not due to it being to revealing, but they had to do alot with making the animated pop out against the background for the 3D to work.

Shame this movie didn't do very well. This film is beautifully animated. Such an underrated classic.
It’s a crime that this film is underrated. The music is epic, as well!
Part of that had to do with the fact it was going up against Home Alone.
Both Rescuers films are

THIS MOVIE NEEDS MORE LOVE!!!!
Happy 30th Anniversary The Rescuers Down Under
Damn I used to love this film as a kid. So glad my aunt bought me the DVD
A rarity indeed! Where the sequel is just as good or better than the original. Plus I loved John Candy as Wilbur the Albatross.

Brendan Murphy Agreed! I also loved George C. Scott in this. John Candy was a voice over as well, and his work was great!
Was a lot of fun working on that film, great memories...
When i was a kid this one was my favourite disney movie, and it still holds up incredibly well!

"We knew that Bernard and Bianca would come back in this movie because its a film about them"
haha wtt??
Back when Disney had great movies 🎥
I was looking for a making-of story for the first Rescuers film, but this one is nice also to add to my Disney making-of playlist. :)
"The Rescuers Down Under is a rarity in Disney history--a full-length sequel to an animated feature."
How the times have changed
I think they meant released under the Disney Animated Features Canon.
I think you forgot to actually mention that this is rare, that Disney actually produced a really great sequel with superb characters, good storyline and superb animation and colours full stop!
The scenery, and colours captured in this are breathtaking and so accurate, same goes for the accents.
Shame they've not used Australia and all it has to offer again!
Fay Goodwin Fun Fact: The Score was Composed by Bruce Broughton. Who ALSO composed the Music for Tiny Toon Adventures the same year! You can here Tiny Toons sounding music in its score!
The Rescuers down under is one of the rare times where the sequel is better than the original movie
One of the only good sequels - no it was THE ONLY sequel good enough to become canon pre-CGI
It was literally the only animated sequel because it was the first (This is Post-Mermaid and Pre-Beauty). I think sequels get a bad rap, but it's nice to just see the characters again. (: I love almost all of the sequels. Plus, unlike remakes, they actually had to create their own storylines.
It did use cgi, though not the 3d models, the Caps system.
Back when a "a full-length sequel to an animated feature" was a "RARITY" to Disney.
This movie is underrated for some reason
Part of that had to do with the fact it was going up against Home Alone.
@@huntercoleman460 Ohh .. The timing
I'm still pissed that this marvelous movie got overlooked. It's a huge pity.
EmmanuelleLunada2010 Blame Home Alone. It was a Box Office Tsunami that wiped out all competition. Honestly, Disney miscalculated.

They should re-release this in IMAX or something
Omg this movie should be EPIC in 3d, it used many rotative surfaces that should work perfectly in 3d :) The flights scenes are awesome, I used to wait for an attraction at disneyland, like flying with the eagle or something, but it never come :( They prefer spaceship :(
I just bought both movies in a set on Amazon. I am so excited to watch it again.
1:47 "You wanna make things real so people identify with them-" AND that's where Lion King 2019 stopped listening
I WISH there had been some clips with the voiceacting! Especially with George C. Scott!
Greatly done. I fully enjoyed watching it.
Such a well made film...!
2:55 Percival C. McLeach have a mustache?
Here's comes our talented and stakes adding cast and crew to "the rescue" of our dedicated Rescue Aid Society. Stay safe everyone!
Mcleach: "I didn't go all the way through 3rd grade for nothing."
It's probably the only Disney movie that doesn't have any songs!
The black cauldron
What if having songs in your Disney animated movie is what helps to elevate the ratings of that movie??
Shame this movie didn’t get the respect it deserves. My only problem with the movie is there isn’t as much of Bernard and Bianca like in the original.
Disney needs to go back 90s work best made films
It makes me so angry that is phenomenal film never received the recognition it truly deserved!
1:55 that thing gave me nightmares..
Joanna the lizard? 😂
This wouldn't be a bad idea for a cartoon series.
Alex Benson what cartoon series?
They Were But After The Success Of Home Alone Jeffrey Katsenberg Scrapped The TV Adaptation For The Rescuers
Only problem is Eva Gabor died
@@jamessparkman6604 You can get someone to fill her shoes. It won't be same grant it, but that shouldn't disqualify the concept from ever getting off the ground.
They should makes another the rescuers movie
Too bad they never showed Frank the Lizard and his pals getting freed from the cages. But it’s highly likely that Frank used his tail to pick at the lock again and then get the keys and frees his pals and they all got out
Lets just say it is the first movie produced entirely by CAPS (Computer Animation Production System)
Today, the current technique of traditional animation is digital ink & paint.
I love "the Making of..." videos. :3
VeyZ Art Me too! I'm a huge animation buff and I find this stuff interesting.
This movie is amazing
Mcleach use to be my favorite Disney villian of all time

Anybody notice that none of the cast members are in this?
I like the Disney animated film The Rescuers Down Under
I remembered that this movie is on Disney plus but it came out in the same year as the Mickey Mouse movie The Prince and the Pauper.
They were packaged together in theaters.
And did you know this movie was Disney’s 29th animated movie in history in the renaissance
Did they make this because of crocodile dundee i Wonder?
they took a 2 week exploration of down under - a holiday then?
Paradox Master 1819. Ha ha!
lol
Joanna!...... did you know there was a Razorback in my Truck! Didja!
Music:Bruce Broughton(1990)
1953
I hope they make a love action movie
Disney gotta go back to drawing
They really should go back to traditional animation.
@@ironinquisitor3656 Yes they should! Screw CGi, handdrawn animation is much better!
@@RaptureMusicOfficial Computer animation just doesn't have the wow factor it used to in the 90s and 2000s, and when CG animation is the practically the only thing today it becomes boring. I like options. I hope hand drawn has a renaissance in some way.
@@ironinquisitor3656 I completely agree, sir!
we're did this extra feature came from?
Australia
i’ve seen the rescuers down under
What animation art style was used to make this?
It's very very funny movie because i was laughing myself!
What kind of reptile/lizard is Joanna?
A monitor lizard/Goanna
Did the narrator really say "*painted* snakes"?
NO!
Releasing old cartoon movies in 3D means they must fiddle too much with the image, ruining the charm of the original animation.
They ruined Beauty and The Beast with that crap, the animation looks so cheap in the bluray release, not due to it being to revealing, but they had to do alot with making the animated pop out against the background for the 3D to work.
Makes it look like it was drawn in MS Paint.
pixote is dat u
Is joanna a goannaor what kind of lizard is she
Monitor lizard
@@MindMan424 ok I thought it was called a goanna and is monitor lizards are they Australian animals
Seeeeeeeees
Pu
im think it unbad
