Cats & Dogs | comment |
The quintessential Cats Are Mean movie, this 2001 action-comedy was directed by Lawrence Guterman and stars Jeff Goldblum, Elizabeth Perkins, and an All-Star Cast of animal voices.The movie opens like a fairly standard comedy. A dog named Buddy chases a cat throughout a small suburb, causing havoc as they go. Things get weird when a truck pulls up in front of Buddy and he is captured by the many cats driving it. As soon as this happens, a call goes out to dogs around the world, letting them all know that their agent has been "cat-napped." So opens Cats & Dogs.As it turns out, cats and dogs are a lot smarter and better organized than we humans think. Many of the world's dogs are actually members of an international secret organization dedicated to protecting their humans from the evil cats. Buddy was on a particularly vital case, protecting the Brody family, while Charles (Goldblum), the father of the household, finishes his formula to eliminate dog allergies. Obviously, the cats don't want that to happen, and so the Brody family needs constant protection, in the form of a dog agent disguised as the family pet.The dogs plan to have a trained agent puppy take over Buddy's job, but a slip-up in the replacement of the dogs at the puppy farm causes a young civilian beagle, named Lou (Tobey Maguire), to become the Brodys' pet. It's now Lou's job to protect the family from the diabolical machinations of the evil, horrible, unspeakable feline mastermind known as... Mr. Tinkles (Sean Hayes).A sequel to the movie was released July of 2010: Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore. It increases the James Bond/Spy Film references and spoofs. It also retcons away the innate evilness of felines seen in the first film, establishing that there are heroic cats, they just tend to keep to themselves. Until now...In September 2020, a third Cats & Dogs movie, titled Paws Unite! was released Direct to Video (outside of the UK and Australia, where it got a theatrical release). It follows new characters Gwen and Roger, and their formation of a squad of amateur spies to foil Pablo, a villainous cockatoo. It reduced the spy references and was noticeably Lighter and Softer than the previous films. | |

Artistic License – Biology: Kitty Galore is said to be a Sphynx Cat, which are naturally hairless due to a genetic mutation... but Kitty used to have fur that was stripped from her due to a hair remover incident. Either Kitty was an outlier of Sphynxes, or the hair remover also managed to change her breed. | |

And the research was probably lost when the factory exploded. | |

No Plans, No Prototype, No Backup: Although they don't know it, the cats can be assured that the research Lou hands over to them is the only copy, and Prof. Brody doesn't know how to recreate it because the breakthrough happened by accident. This probably means that it's lost forever once the factory blows up. | |

Death Trap | |
Cats & Dogs / int_55c79f7c | comment |
Death Trap: A rare justified case — Mr. Tinkles was planning to shoot the Brodys once he'd tested the new formula on Scott, but his minions had acquired a toy gun instead, and in his anger he set off a chain of Disaster Dominoes that started a fire by accident. Deciding that was a good enough Plan B, he left them to burn. | |

Cats & Dogs / int_7286e96d | comment |
Idiot Ball: Mr. Tinkles' henchman Calico is flanderized in the sequel from simply being clumsy and incompetent to so dumb that when he is cornered by the heroes in a closed room, he releases a trap of piling cat litter before realizing he's not outside. (In fact, considering that he's got a different actor voicing him in this movie, it's a credible possibility he's not even the same Calico, but a new one who's even dumber than the last one.) A very minor example, but between Catherine and Kitty while completely aware that Kitty's a ruthless character, Catherine believes that she'll save her from being drowned despite it being so obvious that it's her intention to drown both Diggs and Catherine. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Butch verbally tears into Diggs about his constantly ruining everything because of his Leeroy Jenkins personality and his insistence that doing things his own way works despite how this got him kicked out of the police dogs in the first place. The veteran agent angrily tells Diggs in his face that he'll never be a real agent as he is hopelessly untrainable. Butch then tells him to get lost as he's a danger to the mission and a risk to national security. He regrets it later on though. | |

Cats & Dogs / int_9289ca1d | comment |
Forbidden Chekhov's Gun: The big button on the kennel's instrument panel. The first time it appears, Butch has to stop Lou from pressing it, telling him, "You don't just press the big button! Jeez!" Later, after Tinkles reveals he has captured the Brodys, Butch tells Lou they can now use the big button, which activates a rocket sled that sends them to headquarters. | |

Leeroy Jenkins: Diggs suffers this majorly. Catherine and Butch make a careful plan to sneak up and catch Calico and his pigeon liaison, but it gets thrown out the window when Diggs just charges right in due to his impatience. His tendency to ignore his orders and do things his way without getting permission had already cost his reputation badly several times by the time he met the agency. | |

Continuity Nod: The movie starts with brief mentions to times cats and dogs antagonized one another. As a nod to the first movie, Ancient Egypt is brought up. The head of FART brings up the Big Bads of the previous movies as examples of animals he deems capable of doing what this movie's antagonists are doing. The characters make a joke about how they assume it’s not a cat behind the data hacking, a reference to how the villains of the past two films were cats. | |

Fatal Flaw | |
Cats & Dogs / int_aba8065b | comment |
Fatal Flaw: Diggs' inability to trust others and follow orders, as well as his extreme hatred towards cats. As is typical of her species, Catherine has a debilitating fear of water. She is frozen with fear when she tries to save Diggs, who is hanging precariously over the edge of a boat in motion, and nearly breaks down when she and Diggs are threatened with drowning. In the end, she overcomes her phobia just in time to save them both from drowning. | |

Demoted to Extra: Mr. Tinkles, the main villain from the first movie, spends most of the time locked up Hannibal Lecter-style in Alcatraz's cat prison before making his escape towards the very end. Lou, the beagle from the first movie, is also demoted into a supporting character by making him leader of the doggy spy agency, putting him on the sidelines. Sam gets the worst of them all, appearing for all of 5 seconds and only getting in about one line before walking away, never to be seen again. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
Cats & Dogs / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: After the council meeting, Butch calls out Lou for speaking out of turn. Lou gives one back at him for agreeing with the council's decision to allow the Brodys to die so the formula wouldn't be used against dogs, and for not backing him up. Lou believes Butch's taking his anger on his own human family for sending him away (due to his boy leaving for college) on the Brodys. | |

Flanderization | |
Cats & Dogs / int_e5e6640b | comment |
Mr. Tinkles' henchman Calico is flanderized in the sequel from simply being clumsy and incompetent to so dumb that when he is cornered by the heroes in a closed room, he releases a trap of piling cat litter before realizing he's not outside. (In fact, considering that he's got a different actor voicing him in this movie, it's a credible possibility he's not even the same Calico, but a new one who's even dumber than the last one.) | |
