Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })One of the finest shorts in the Classic Disney Shorts lineup, based on The Brothers Grimm story of the same name, The Brave Little Tailor (1938) takes place in The Middle Ages, with Mickey Mouse playing the role of the tailor of the title, as his boasts of taking down ordinary house flies land him in hot water when the people mistake his claims to be related to giants and choose him to take down a rampaging giant. He'd still do anything for Princess Minnie, though...On a side note, the most famous scene is, surprisingly, NOT Mickey's fight with the giant (although that does double as a Moment of Awesome) but rather Mickey describing how he killed the flies, as seen in the opening page quote, which is considered by many an animation nut to be a true highlight of animation acting (and Disney veterans Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston thought so, too). This is also the second to last appearance of the original "White skinned, Dot-eyed" Mickey Mouse design, the last being "Society Dog Show", and the next shorts "Mickey's Surprise Party", "The Pointer" and Fantasia's "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" using a new design for Mickey from there on out (Though, nowadays, Disney will use the old design when they're doing retraux throwbacks.)Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Not to be confused with The Brave Little Toaster. | |

And I Must Scream | |
| Brave Little Tailor / int_a8a04f6f | comment |
And I Must Scream: The ultimate fate of the giant: he's trapped in place and his breath is used to power a windmill, which in turn operates a medieval amusement park. Granted, the giant is asleep at this point, but still. Subverted even further in the Fifty Happy Years Book. The book suggests that this is indeed a happy ending for the giant and everyone else as well. | |
