Stuart Little is a 1999-2005 live-action/computer-animated film trilogy, based on the 1945 children's novel by E. B. White. The films are produced by Franklin/Waterman Productions and released by Columbia Pictures. The first two films were directed by Rob Minkoff (of The Lion King fame) with the first film being notably co-written by M. Night Shyamalan. It even features one of his customary plot twists!Live-action roles include Jonathan Lipnicki, Geena Davis and Hugh Laurie as the Little Family (George, mother Eleanor and father Frederick), while the voice-over roles include Michael J. Fox (Stuart) and Nathan Lane (Snowbell the cat). The film spawned two sequels in 2002 and 2005 respectively, and a short-lived animated series in 2003.The film's plots are as follow: In the first film, the story starts when the Littles adopt Stuart at an orphanage. The mouse's new parents are happy with him, but his new brother, George, initially isn't. As Stuart is beginning to adapt, things get complicated when Snowbell, the family's pet cat, tries to get rid of him and his supposedly lost parents, the Stouts (voiced by Bruno Kirby and Jennifer Tilly), appear in the scene. In Stuart Little 2, Stuart meets a canary bird named Margalo (voiced by Melanie Griffith) and both become friends. What he doesn't know is that Margalo is forcefully working with a cruel peregrine falcon (voiced by James Woods) who wants her to steal Mrs. Little's ring or else he will kill her new rodent friend. Margalo leaves to save Stuart's life and the mouse goes on her trail thinking the Falcon had kidnapped her. Stuart Little 3: Call of the Wild is a direct-to-video fully CGI animated sequel. Most of the cast returned to voice their respective characters (Laurie, Davis and Fox) except for Nathan Lane (who was replaced by his Timon substitute, Kevin Schon), Steve Zahn (who voiced Monty, Snowbell's feral cat best friend) and Jonathan Lipnicki. In this one, Stuart and his family go for a camping trip. Stuart joins the scouts and makes good friends with Reeko the skunk (voiced by Wayne Brady), who like Margalo, works for a ferocious employer called The Beast (voiced by Virginia Madsen). | |

Stuart Little / int_14180452 | comment |
Instantly Proven Wrong: In "Stuart Little 2", Snowbell, already against the idea of having Margalo, a stray bird, staying in the house for a while, notes how Mrs. Little doesn't like animals walking in the house off the street, and believes she'll "throw a fit" when she sees her. Instead, Mrs. Little is instantly charmed by her. | |

Does This Remind You of Anything? | |
Stuart Little / int_14ed6ab7 | comment |
Does This Remind You of Anything?: This little bit from the first movie is quite similar to interracial adoption: In the second film, the relationship between Falcon and Margalo seems very similar to that of a domestic abuser and their victim respectively, especially when Falcon is angry. Word of God implies that this was at least somewhat intentional, as part of what makes the Falcon so terrifying is that he actively denies Margalo her rights, autonomy and freedom, and not only threatens her but also her concerned friend who wants to help her. It gets further emphasized when Margalo tells Falcon she's "leaving" him at the climax. | |

Stuart Little / int_1872821f | comment |
Related Differently in the Adaptation: In the original book, Stuart is the Littles' biological son...even though his parents are human and he's a mouse (or at least looks like a mouse, which is never explained). The film makes him their adopted son instead, as it's less odd (though everyone is still nonplussed about anthropomorphic mice). It adds a plot in which his adoptive human brother George, who is initially disappointed by Stuart, comes to accept him; family cat Snowbell also temporarily tricks Stuart into leaving the family by pretending to have found Stuart's birth parents (who actually died when he was a baby). | |

Never Trust a Trailer: The first film is a criminal offender. Several commercials show Stuart flying a plane or fighting the cat and other cool things, but none of that happens in the film. But they do happen in the ending credits in a montage that depicts what happens after the story is over. | |

He assigns her to steal household valuables from the Little family. However, it seems that Margalo cannot concentrate on her assignment as she begins to enjoy her friendship with Stuart.

Furry Confusion | |
Stuart Little / int_27a40541 | comment |
Furry Confusion: In the film, Stuart is an anthropomorphic mouse adopted as a son by humans; as a result he has a pet cat. Snowbell also speaks, however. It's implied that all cats and mice have intelligence in this world, but are generally treated as we treat animals anyway. Stuart being given "special treatment" creates a bit of a social scandal in both the human and animal worlds. Both films tend to downplay this latter aspect, treating mice more as miniature hairy humans than actual rodents. | |

Carnivore Confusion: Averted through the movies, particularly with Falcon in the second - he didn't eat Margalo because he needed an Artful Dodger, and repeatedly tells her that if HE gets his talons into Stuart, he'll eat him. Of course, when he finally does get Stuart in his talons, Bond Villain Stupidity takes over. | |

Missing Child: Midway through the first film, Stuart's parents find out his biological parents actually have been confirmed as being dead for years and call in the police. They find out that their son has been kidnapped by a couple of strangers, and that, according to the authorities, their modus operandi fits criminals interested in thrill-killing, not ransom. Luckily, Stuart's fake parents turn out to have a conscience and he finds his way home, but Mr. and Mrs. Little are scared to death in the meantime. | |

What Measure Is a Non-Cute?: In the second film, Stuart befriends Margalo, a little bird who is menaced by a peregrine falcon. This would just be another case of Carnivores Are Mean, but note that Margalo is an Artful Dodger disguised as an adorable female canary and the falcon is depicted as a vicious, mad-eyed, scheming, Ax-Crazy Fagin Expy voiced by James Woods. | |

Snowbell starts out very antagonistic toward Stuart, even trying to eat him and kill him, but later is shown as a Jerk with a Heart of Gold and, when his street cat friends from the alley want him to eat Stuart to be In with the In Crowd, he ultimately sides with Stuart. Played much more straight in the third film, which has a cougar as the main villain. | |

Stuart Little / int_6b05b601 | comment |
Jerkass Has a Point: While he was being rude about it, George is correct about the fact the gifts given to Stuart by family members are not suitable for a mouse to use. In the second film, while Snowbell is against having Margalo stay with them even for a while, he's not wrong to point out that since she's a stray bird, she could be germ-ridden. And considering Stuart had just met her, there's no telling if she would take advantage of them or steal from them. | |

Vague Age: Stuart. Though he is adopted by the Littles and is mainly treated as a child by them, he is able to drive, sail a boat, and has an adult voice actor. Also none of the adult animals treat him as if he were any younger than him (other than the Stouts, but that was part of the plan). Perhaps he's a kid to humans and an adult to other animals? | |

Stuart Little / int_957e5fc2 | comment |
Villainous Breakdown: The Falcon in the second film does not take kindly to Margalo leaving him and retaliates by murderously pursuing her. He might have succeeded if Stuart hadn't saved her in time. Unfortunately, this only breaks the Falcon down even more, which becomes all the more acute when Stuart manages to outwit him during the climactic chase, during Stuart tricks the Falcon into crashing into a popcorn stand and shattering the glass case. | |

Your Approval Fills Me with Shame: Margalo is assigned by the evil Falcon to steal household valuables from the Little family. However, Margalo can't seem to focus on her assignment as she starts to enjoy spending time with the family, and becoming smitten with Stuart. Finally losing his patience, Falcon threatens Margalo to steal Mrs. Little's ring or else he'll kill Stuart. Reluctantly, Margalo steals Mrs. Little's wedding ring. When the Littles notice the ring missing, they think it's fallen down the drain and Stuart volunteers to go after it, but the string that's holding him breaks. Margalo saves him, but Stuart's gratitude towards her only makes her feel more guilty. Later that night, Margalo gives a sleeping Stuart her precious jeweled stick-pin, before leaving the house out of guilt and shame. | |

Oh, Crap!: In the first film: Snowbell has one when Monty sees Stuart in the cereal box. Snowbell has another one later when the Littles discover that the Stouts are not Stuart's real parents, and get the police involved. Stuart has one when he gets lost in Central Park and the cats start appearing. In the second film: George gets one when he has to lie to his mother again, supposedly having just left Stuart at Will's house, and then Will shows up at the door. He manages to cover himself. George has another one when his mother finally realizes he's been lying about where Stuart is. Falcon has one when he sees he's on a collision course with a popcorn stand, before crashing through it. He has another one when Stuart's plane is about to hit him. Stuart has one when the plane's propeller slices open his parachute. | |

Word of God | |
Stuart Little / int_cc4b45f6 | comment |
In the second film, the relationship between Falcon and Margalo seems very similar to that of a domestic abuser and their victim respectively, especially when Falcon is angry. Word of God implies that this was at least somewhat intentional, as part of what makes the Falcon so terrifying is that he actively denies Margalo her rights, autonomy and freedom, and not only threatens her but also her concerned friend who wants to help her. It gets further emphasized when Margalo tells Falcon she's "leaving" him at the climax. | |

Hannibal Lecture | |
Stuart Little / int_e1fa333c | comment |
Hannibal Lecture: Falcon explaining to Stuart that Margalo is simply an Artful Dodger, and her friendship was a lie to get Eleanor's wedding ring. However, Margalo tells Stuart that their friendship is genuine and Stuart believes her. Stuart shoots an arrow at Falcon, which simply pisses him off. | |

The Ditz | |
Stuart Little / int_e2d457 | comment |
The Ditz: Margalo puts on an understated version of this, mostly to throw Stuart off the fact that she's an Artful Dodger. | |

The Artful Dodger | |
Stuart Little / int_e30c7ae1 | comment |
The Artful Dodger: Margalo the canary is this at the beginning, when she pretends to be friends with Stuart, to steal Mrs. Little's ring and give it to Falcon. But when she begins to really enjoy her friendship with Stuart, it makes she forget about her main assignment. And this makes Falcon begin to lose patience. | |

Interspecies Adoption | |
Stuart Little / int_e49c0cbd | comment |
Interspecies Adoption: As mentioned above, the book claims that Stuart was born from a human mother, but the movie explains this as the reason why Stuart has human parents to begin with. | |

Adaptation Species Change | |
Stuart Little / int_e8497e34 | comment |
Adaptation Species Change: It's never explained why Stuart looks like a mouse in Stuart Little. He is the biological son of two normal humans and it's never referred to as any sort of fictional disorder. He's just presumed to be a mouse looking boy. In the films he is an actual mouse who ends up adopted by the Little family. | |

Artistic License – Geography | |
Stuart Little / int_e9f517e1 | comment |
Artistic License – Geography: As the sequel began production prior to 9/11, it was forced to edit out the Twin Towers prior to release. However, in one shot (where Stuart flies past the Empire State Building in his toy plane), the space where the towers once stood can be seen, and if one looks closely the distinctive WTC7 building is still present, but without the towers: WTC7 had collapsed five hours after the Twin Towers did, making it stand out as an obvious edit for those familiar with the NYC building layout. | |

Adult Adoptee | |
Stuart Little / int_eb52ff9b | comment |
Adult Adoptee: Sort of. Stuart is 18-years-old in mouse years when he's adopted by the Littles. Not that extreme an example, but still technically an adult. | |

Why Won't You Die? | |
Stuart Little / int_ecac4c42 | comment |
Why Won't You Die?: The Falcon really wants Stuart dead. This becomes especially acute when Stuart returns from the garbage truck in the plane and manages to resist him during the chase and the Falcon tries to kill him by tearing off the top wing of his plane. | |

Stuart Little / int_f00fce0e | comment |
Resourceful Rodent: Since Stuart is the average size of a mouse, he has to use toys as everyday items. He has to wear clothes from toys and use toy vehicles as transportation. In the sequel, he rebuilds a toy airplane with trash to fly it home. | |

Product Placement | |
Stuart Little / int_f511ea9b | comment |
Product Placement: In the second movie when George's friend Will comes over, he says that he brought his PS2. The film was distributed by Sony Pictures, and the PlayStation 2 was produced by the Japanese electronics division of Sony (which is the same company that purchased Columbia in the 1980's). | |

Stuart Little / int_fe61495d | comment |
Grail in the Garbage: The makers used the Berény painting Sleeping Lady with Black Vase as a prop, unaware of its hidden significance as a lost painting. The painting itself was only discovered to be the painting in 2009, when an art historian watched the film on television with his daughter. | |
