thank you all for your thoughtful feedback re: Bruce looking like a cat. i have now posted the full scene on twitter and you are never allowed to doubt me again: twitter.com/leovader/status/1426628122317922304?s=20
I personally think you should've included this compelling evidence in the video (especially with the bonus meme at the end), but you are the auteur here
@@colette2529 i truly didn't expect it to be so controversial.
I mean, I was literally just about to say. Without him being calked a dog he looks exactly like a cat. Like, even the way he runs. I guess that's just a result of Bruce having to look like the "laddy cat" snowball is pinning after for the joke to work
My issue with this conclusion is that the scene in question is coded like a scene in a 90's comedy when the leading man hits on someone he thinks is beautiful, only for the person to turn around to reveal themselves as a man in drag and/or a Trans person. A terrible, outdated joke that has no place in modern society.
However, I would not put it past the writers of the TV show to take that joke formula and also confusingly map the gender element of the joke to the dichotomy of cats and dogs. Because the punchline in the clip you've shared is not just that Bruce is masculine (unless calling Bruce a "dog" is itself a play on calling him ugly because he's not seen as a girl) but also that he is a dog. Which raises several questions about the relationship of gender and species in the Stuart Little universe I don't think it's prepared to answer. But the appearance of an androgynous dog like Bruce does provide an important clue useful for further analysis.

The odd thing about the vandalized car is that it's not up on bricks, it's up on the wheels themselves. This implies a market for mouse tires but not mouse rims...
As someone's who's seen, removed, and felt those type of wheels I wouldn't doubt it.
I remember playing with those wheels and wondering if they sold replacements for the tire incase it rips or the thread is worn thin.
Now that I'm older I understand getting replacement parts for toys and collector items isn't as easy as I thought.
So yea.
Stealing them rubber times could cost more than the car itself.
They have rejected human culture obviously including drip And it’s decadence so they only take the tires they’re like communist mice
Or/And a lack of mouse bricks...
Well, you know, not every Mouse has a car. A lot of mice do not know how to drive and therefore, do not need the wheels. The tires on the other hand, can be recycled into several different rubber toys or implements. To a mouse, the rubber is probably more valuable than the car.
What's the state of the mouse class divide in the Stuart little universe.

There are also humans called Dick. Makes you wonder what kind of society we truly live in.
@@Chillerll Dick is just short for Richard
"Guy" as a given name is derived from the Italian name "Guido", which is Latinised from Old High Germanic "Wido". The actual meaning of either name is debated.
Something of note is that Stuart has several small books that presumably contain the full story. So that means that there's enough small animals able to read that publishing miniature versions of books is viable
I’m not even religious and I have no idea where it came from but I own a bible literally so small you *need* a magnifying glass to read it. It’s like at most an inch and a half tall. I have no idea who printed it or how, but it is possible.
@@AfromanRants Stuart did obviously
In a world where tiny animals are sentient, publishing houses existing to print books in miniature seems not just logical, but likely. And while you may think that such small printing presses would struggle for funding, I imagine religious texts and propaganda for the “betterment” of non-human people would be the first tiny books published. You just gotta make the mice and the birds aware that Jesus was a human *early*

That “dog”, Bruce, was 100% a cat. Looking at how it acts towards Snowbell by hissing and seeing how it’s tail moves when chasing proves it.
Other characters refer to it as a dog later in the episode

I like that the original book suggests Stuart is human, just a little fucked up face and height wise. that's canon now. all talking animals in Stuart Little are human. most of em were orphaned by their very reasonable parents for being so short and beastly. cats are not human tho, they just like to chat
But if stuart is a human and humans can't understand cats, how does he understand snowbell?
@@lucs028 schizophrenia
@@lucs028 he has fucked up lil ears too
@@gy7uj917 it all makes sense now
Not just suggests. The book straight up say's a human gave birth to him.
I think one of the main misunderstandings regarding Stuart is that he's not actually a mouse. He is born to human parents, and is described explicitly in the books only as "looking like a mouse in every way". As per the lore, he is entirely human, he just has the exact biology of a mouse for... some reason.
That answers zero questions!
The Stuart of the books is unambiguously a small human, and the Stuart of the movies is unambiguously a mouse.
stuart little is actually a clever (and very subtle) metaphor for how being short fucking blows
no it’s a metaphor for how being short is awesome because you get to use small things instead of normal-sized things
@@jade_is_tired all my short kings love driving their hot wheels to walmart

Did y’all notice that extremely subtle but very realistic touch at 6:51? Monty’s ear turned in the direction the Mafia boss cat’s voice was coming from before he fully turned his head to face him. Nice attention to detail!
I mean they probably just called the cat by its name.
The cats aren't fully CGI, just the facial expressions are. They will have made a noise to get the cats attention so that it turned its head. It most likely wasn't delibarate.
The fact that he watched 9 hours and 14 minutes of Stuart Little content and read the book. Shows the serious dedication to the video
Leo Vader feels like the most authentic expression of what UA-cam is supposed to be and intended for
The weirdest thing in the Little universe is there's one of the books where he encounters a tiny...human women? like, she's a regular lady just small, and he tries to romance her??
I love your being although you never existed
Stuart in the books is a tiny human man. He's described as "looking rather mouselike", but people misinterpreted it to mean he is a mouse.
Like how Twoflower from Discworld was described as "four-eyed" meaning that he wore glasses, but the cover artist drew him with straight up four eyes.
@@HiperPivociarz The illustrations in the book have him as a literal mouse, so it's not hard to see where people got confused
So that begs the question, if they had a child together, what size would it be? Would it be proportionately as small to them as a mouse is to a human or would it be "normal sized" to them?
(Edit: an average mouse is about 9cm long, the average American male is about 175cm tall, so that means their child, if proportionately small, would be about 4.5mm tall)
@@HiperPivociarz Or how Balrog from LotR are described as having darkness behind them that look like wings and now most depictions of them have literal wings

It's not that complicated dude, she's just correct. It'd be more difficult to adjust.
I accodently step on my cats tail if we're both unaware, a mouse would literally be dead & its be traumatizing if said mouse was your child. I'd be anti adopt mouse if I could
The way _I_ see it, Snowbell can speak fluent human english whenever he wants, he just chooses to speak animal language most of the time out of spite. He still hasn't gotten over that one trip to the vet, and he kinda just feels betrayed by humans now.

Dude every cat I've owned has learned what "trim your claws" and "bath" means. And let me tell you, none of them are fucking pleased when they hear that.
"Good questions inform, Great questions transform"
The question "can they understand the cat in Stuart Little" has truly transformed me.
Thank you Sir Leo Vader, I will never be the same.
My daughter watched this movie non-stop for like two weeks straight, so I liked this video way more than I should and actually pondered a lot of these same things.
My theory is that the Littles adopted Snowbell as a family member and never actually bothered to learn the complex language of cats only just knowing the fewest necessary to talk to snowbell who in turn only knows a few human words to respond since no one taught him how to speak human. He acts out because he has no way to voice himself in the family who just treat him like a pet. Stuart grew up in orphanage with humans and probably other animals so he learned the other animal languages there.
@@leeroyjenkins0 I don't claim to have all the answers but a possible explanation could be that we see the movie through Stewart's lens of understanding so the translations between animals is seamless to him. The different animal languages could be similar but distinct perhaps like if you knew spanish you could make out a few phrases in Italian but without further study you couldnt really understand it. So perhaps to other animals the conversation is legible but more broken than the fluency that Stewart interprets it as? I

I've never identified with a statement about fiction more than this.
+++. I uh, kind of wish some of the answers were better though... But I've got nothing myself so respect to the attempt!
As I child I had two theories: Stuart was in a “princess and the frog” scenario and he just had to overcome some personality flaw to become a real boy again. The other theory I had was that it was supposed to be a commentary on human experiments on rats. But then why introduce a bird instead of a monkey or a pig, which are other animals we usually use for testing purposes. I also think we could assume that this movie and Enchanted occur in the same universe and that Stuart is merely a cartoon mice that slipped thru to our world. Or maybe the product of a regular mice and a cartoon one.
Humans do experiments on birds too. Mostly pigeons, but songbirds are also used as a model for the neurobiology of language learning.

Yeah, that's exactly what he is. He's not a literal mouse, he's a tiny man who's "mouse-like". He has mouse features, including a friggin' tail of all things, but he was conceived and born from human parents, and is always regarded throughout the books as a human man. It's.... complicated.
It's definitely one of those things that can only make sense to children, because they'll just blindly accept anything at that age. A fat guy who stalks you every waking moment to see if you're being naughty and breaks into your house once a year to commit reverse burglary? Sure thing. A kleptomaniac magical woman who's got an unhealthy obsession with human dentata? Right on. A human family who gives birth to a boy but looks like a mouse and matures faster than Benjamin Button, who is fully human yet looks exactly like a mouse for some wholly unexplained reason?

Makes me think of Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated where they explained the lore of why scooby could talk. Apparently there was a race of extra dimensional aliens that crossed over to earth during Egyptian times and used animals as host bodies for their minds, hence the Egyptian reverence of animals, and then they interbreeded with the animal population and many of their descendants have human level intelligence and can talk, so basically a small minority of all animals descended from the aliens can speak and scooby is one of them. They even have a criminal insane asylum for intelligent animal criminals as well. They gave way more "talking animal" lore than I ever expected in that show lol.

finally, someone asking the real questions
No one, absolutely not a single soul had to dive this deep into the Stuart Little universe, but I'm so glad you did.
In later years when Stuart's dad couldn't save him from a misdiagnosed disease (in which he sacrificed leg muscle and tissues for some strange transplant treatment) he abandoned his family and became a doctor that specialized in diagnosis. But the memory of Stuart took it's toll on his mental health and he eventually fakes his death and escapes to Mexico on motorcycles with his doctor friend who has terminal cancer.

Cats can absolutely learn words. My cat will react to the word "food," in particular. Granted, that's due to some serious day in day out associations, so snowbell reacting to "bath" in the same way would mean they bathe him regularly. That's not completely out of the question, given that he is a white long haired cat who is allowed outdoors, but even with that they're probably bathing him too much.
All of the cats I've owned have eventually learned to hate the word "bath" to the point that they would hide if it was said at them and it would become far more difficult to bathe them, requiring us to spell it out.

Yeah these sorts of things always happen with name spellings. It comes down to familiarity most of the time, though for me in this case it's mostly aesthetic. It's also a bit of phonetics too since i like the pronunciation of the name with a distinct 'w' sound like "stew-art" or "stoo-wert" rather than "stoo-art" which to me is implied by the u spelligs. Either way it's personal preference, i just thought itd be fun to mention

I would say "food" and my cat would go running over to her bowl and wait for me to fill it
you are seriously one of the most underrated youtubers. your content is really funny i hope you blow up soon
I think it's cause youTube hates small creators because it doesn't have enough data yet to be able to predict who will like the channel, and they're not gonna waste time on anyone who won't make them that sweet sweet ad revenue so they drag their feet bothering to recommend anyone who doesn't have a decent CTR. Now that he's found an audience and UA-cam know his metrics are good and the earning potential is there, I think it's just a matter of time before he releases one that hits the algorithm just right and gets pushed out to a lot of people at once. The growth from his 'are they wizards?' to now is already impressive, and that effect just gets exponentially bigger the larger your subscriber count is to start.
A couple of channels I watch will talk about the channel itself from time to time, and they all describe a similar process. I think most people are biased against smaller channels as well, so it can be roughest trying to build up from that. And he's already done that incredibly fast.
Reasons why I love Snowbell:

I’ve legitimately been thinking about this and watching this feels like an itch that has finally been scratched. Thank you for confirming I am not insane for bringing this up at every party.
I’ve just realized that Stuart’s dad is Hugh Laurie, aka Dr. House and Senator Tom James. What range!
I heard the library of ruina menu music and I thought I finally gone crazy, glad I can never escape
“You must suffer as I have” - Stuart Little
My theory is that based on their personalities, cats pretend to not be able to speak to humans. Although because they are sentient and do know the language, smart and respectful people like the Little family understand that the cats are understanding them (to some degree at least) by their responses when they speak and treat them thusly.
Literally opened this video and then watched both back to back and now I’m back again
This might be my new favourite Leo Vader vid, the skit at the end absolutely killed me
The UA-cam algorithm has utterly failed not showing you to me sooner. Subscribed!
I completely forgot I read the Stuart Little book as a small child until I saw the illustration of Stuart and the tiny girl. That shit made me terrified of meeting a mouse the same size as me
unironically some of the smartest an funniest content on UA-cam. you are truly an inspiration Leo
Fun fact did you know that In real life cats have 2 language one for babies or used when adults when taken care of by humans and the other one used when they turn into adults to talk with other cats. So what it can be is that people may be able to understand cats but only if speaking cat language
That fanfic joke was my subscription, glad I found your account
Stuart Little? More like A Little Inconsistent Anthropomorphism
I highkey feel superior for being subbed to you. I already had an A+ sub list but now...I'm elite.
I’d always assumed that animals just have different intelligence levels, and some are smart enough to talk to other animals just fine but not humans directly.
To be fair, one of my cats knows the word “treats” and we have to spell it out or he’ll walk to the treat cabinet and claw at it.
The other talking mice definitely live in an underground society!
Also, these are one of the few movies I watched (repeatedly) as a kid, so now I finally know what it's like to have a youtube video be made about a film from your childhood.
My theory is that many animals have their normal sounds/body language to communicate with other animals who understand that, like a foreign language to humans basically. The cats can choose to talk to the humans, and the humans figure they’re being ignored when the cats arent speaking to the humans, making the ignoring mutual.
This is the kind of nitpicky bullshit that gets you labeled as "a little much" by your friends, and I fucking love it hahaha
