The part where Chief gets hit by the train was actually a huge point of contention between animators. In the book this movie is based on, Chief dies from the impact, which many of the new, younger animators wanted to leave in, stating that it was necessary to give Copper a proper motive for revenge. However, the veteran animators wanted Chief to live saying that they had never killed off a main character before, and they weren't about to start now. Ultimately, the old guard won, but it caused a major riff between them and the new guard, and even contributed to Don Bluth leaving Disney to form his own animation company.

Not just Don Bluth. It also got two of the other young animators, Tim Burton and Brad Bird, to start looking for a way to work elsewhere, ultimatly leaving after The Black Cauldron. Also Cheif dying was supposes to be in the movie originally when it was mainly Reitherman in charge rather than Stevens, in the book Cheif, Tod and Copper all die.

This was actually Disney's last animated movie that DIDN'T use any CGI.

The first movie Disney used extensive CGI in was for the clock gear scene in "The Great Mouse Detective", released in 1986.

I was sad but I didn't cry not even when I was a child and this was the second Disney movie I ever saw. I must have been five or six and it never seemed dark to me. I didn't cry now. Miss Brispy and the Secret of Nihm is dark for me or the Black Cauldron (We only had the Audio tape as children and that felt dark enough). But I remember how much the movie exidet us (me and my brother). It was the numer one topic for a while (for my brother it was the first movie he ever saw and he is two years younger). We had the book for the movie later on.

Originally, Chief was to be killed by the train and therefore justify Copper's revenge on Tod. However, for the same reasons as Trusty, the producers decided it would be too intense for kids, so they had Chief survive with a broken leg instead.

I enjoy this Disney film. The tale of how two unlikely animals end up becoming friends and having to put their friendship to the test as adults is very interesting. Plus, I appreciate the comedy relief provided by Dinky, Boomer, and Squeaks. The Fox and the Hound is a fun and emotionally engaging film imo, a wonderful Disney classic.

Ik it is as the technically right thing to do by releasing Tod but you also got to understand that even though he was wild as a baby he's basically domesticated now, with no real idea how to survive on his own. I cant imagine the heartbreak and worry she had upon releasing him. Another thing with Vixie and Tod with the traps. He was confident but he also didn't have his basic survival instincts. He didn't know the signs like when the forest is quiet there's danger. Vixie was always wild so she knew these things and sensed something was wrong.

Despite how scary some of the scenes can be for young kids as it was for me when I was one, I still really appreciate how they didn't 'dumb down' or soften the edges and kept the story and animation mature and true to life. If this were made today I have no doubt half the scenes here would've been scrapped and the other half would've been watered down and "kiddified". I miss animation and storytelling like this.

If I had to pick the one Disney animation that's guaranteed to make me cry, this one is it. It doesn't matter how many times I've seen this; when it gets to the lady taking Tod to the preserve, I'm sobbing during her monologue. But the story itself even stands up today in what it shows: kids don't have any judgements and make friends with anyone, they're TAUGHT to judge and act certain ways to certain people. But they are also capable of still acting on their own personal feelings, if given the chance.

Alot of the voices you'll hear in this movie have been used across the board in early Disney movies... For instance Chief voice was also used in Robinhood!

This film was the final Disney animated film, that Frank Thomas and Ollie Johnston, two members of Walt Disney's original "Nine Old Men" had worked on before their departure in 1978, it also was the first Disney animated film to bring in the next generation of directors and animators, which included John Lasseter, Ron Clements, John Musker, Glen Keane, Tim Burton, Brad Bird, Henry Selick, Chris Buck, Mike Gabriel, and Mark Dindal, all of whom would finalize the animation and complete the film's production. Those new animators especially Ron Clements and John Musker would play an important role in the Disney Renaissance of the 1980s and 1990s.

The landscapes in the US in these countries are very similar. Everything is taken as inspiration. I don't think it's one specific place - it's a mosaic of parts and regions of the US that were the inspiration for the film. The state of Pennsylvania is associated with the writer Daniel P. Mannix, it is assumed that the Nobel is based there. But the Appalachia bridge can also be part of the set, certainly. @@Schniedragon88

This was really one of the last films that had any involvement from the remaining "Nine Old Men" of Disney's golden age who I believe retired early in the production, and so the animation torch was passed on to the next generation of young directors and animators including: John Lasseter, John Musker, Brad Bird, Ron Clements, and Tim Burton The bear scene was an early example of Glen Keane's stellar work before he later became a lead animator mainstay of the Disney Renaissance, e.g. Ariel, Aladdin, Beast, Tarzan, and others. Somewhere on youtube (hopefully the footage is still around) there's a behind the scenes bit where he flips his sketches of the moment Todd leaps onto that bear. His artistry is incredible and really showed the dynamism and intensity of the moment

In the book version, Chief does die and he was planned to in earlier stages but it was changed to him surviving with a broken leg which does diminish the reason for Copper and Amos to get revenge on Tod. For a long time it was speculated that there was a conflict between the older animators (some of the Nine Old Men like Ollie Johnston, Frank Thomas and producer/director Wolfman Reitherman) and the younger ones (such as Glen Keane and John Lasseter, yes, one of the former heads of Pixar and director of Toy Story 1 and 2, A Bug's Life and Cars 1 and 2) on the disagareement whever Cheif should die or not (the older animators wanted Cheif to survive because of they thought it would be traumatic to kids, the younger ones wanted Chief to die for a better story). However, not too long ago, a KZfaqr interviewed Jerry Reeves, the director of Brave Little Toaster and many Disney World attractions such as Cranium Command and ExtraTERRORestial: Alien Encounter, as well as the surpervisor animator on Space Jam. He revealed this wasn't the case, it was a demand from the higher ups of Disney (the producers and board members) that Chief shouldn't die, to play safe with the audience. Another note from them was to not show Tod's mom get shot as to show that she might have survived (though, in my opinion, this doesn't work out and even if it's more implied that she died, I think it's too obvious she didn't survive or she would have come back for Tod, which would have made the whole thing with Widow Tweed to adopt him being redundant).

It doesn't matter if she raised the fox as a pet or raised him to be released. You NEVER take an animal to an unfamiliar place and drop them off! Not even a wild animal. They won't know the food, water, shelter, dangers, or even who has claimed that territory and will fight for it. They can't learn all those things in the 2-3 days it would take to survive. It's a death sentence. 🦊

According to Wikipedia the first western animated film to use CGI was Rock and Rule which was released in 1983 - its worth watching by the way and not a children's movie. When you watch The Secret of NIMH (1982) keep in mind that it was released only one year after the Fox and the Hound which is crazy when you compare the (non-CGI) animation affects and style.

The Fox and the Hound is my all-time favorite Disney movie, and the only Disney movie that makes me cry every time. Their ending, not being able to be together at the end, was so sad for me as a little kid. Now, when I watch it, it makes me remember the friends that I have lost along the way of my life.

I actually tend to love movies that show a relationship that has a bittersweet ending and doesn’t last forever… I love happy endings too! But I’m learning so many relationships in our lives can’t be lifelong. And those relationships still hold such beauty for what they will always mean to us. I struggle with letting go of friendships especially and I feel like these movies help me see the goodness of letting go. It’s still painful, but it’s also sweet and meaningful. Those movies bring a different type of comfort to me and I really love a tear-felt goodbye. Great reaction y’all!!

This was one of my favorite Disney movies as a kid (I WAS in the VCR generation, but the movie was re-released in theaters before it was released on VHS). While it's dark, gritty and mature compared to most Disney fare, it's pure sweetness and light compared to the 1967 novel it's based on. Aside from its artistic value, this movie also gave the world the gift of the Don Bluth cartoon movies from the 1980s and 90s. Bluth worked for Disney until this movie was in production. He wanted to stay closer to the book, which would have meant making it MUCH darker than it is (can you imagine a Disney film being "much darker"?) but the surviving members of Walt's original animation team who were still in charge of the studio at the time flatly refused. Bluth then left to form his own studio, taking many of the younger animators with him. They went on to make "The Secret of N.I.M.H.", "An American Tail", "The Land Before Time" and "All Dogs go to Heaven", which I enjoyed just as much as the films Disney was making.

Love that they mention the music. It is a Mandolin! you have to remember before the surge of rock in the 70's and 80's. Folk and country music was the most popular music in US period. So a lot of these classics like Bambi, Fox and the Hound, etc. all had a feel to them of the country lifestyle and included well known voice actors who were known for their country drawl. Characters from Green Acres and He Haw we're instantly recognizable. It was something all the parents of the children watching could connect with. Nowadays a lot of people have never even been camping or visited the rural areas. Bluegrass and folk music is almost a lost art form. Which is why a lot of modern kids movies have to really cram a lot of stuff into the movie to hit with a broad audience.

I loved this movie as a kid. I watched it over and over and over again. There was something just so comforting about the animation and the way the kid versions of Tod and Copper talked to each other. I always cried when she let Tod go. Even hearing her inner monologue here made me tear up.

@jlerrickson 8 ай бұрын

I'm so glad that you shared your reaction to this film. Aside to the obvious "we can love each other when we're fundamentally different " message, this makes me think of the countless videos of different species reuniting after they bonded in at least one party's formative years: the recognition and the affection are there, but you wouldn't live in their territory or with their pack. Yet another example of the dark and brutal source material being shaped into a lovely and palatable story.

Glen Keane was the supervising animator for much of the film's final act. From the moment when Tod wakes up in the tree panicking, he looks and moves much more like a Disney Renaissance character.

The original book ends with the main characters all dieing. In the hunters vengeance he killed off the world he knew over time, selling land to developers of a local suburbanite and by tge time they got the fox, the woods he knew where built out of existence and the animals that were once in the area replaced by people. This is an alternative take where the hunter doesn't hunt tod till the end of his days.

I'm all grown up and I still bawl at the scene where Tod is left alone in the forest. Maybe I just love animals too much, maybe it's my own abandonment issues or just the fact that I can't stand the thought of an innocent soul feeling alone and lost but ugh, I cried just watching this reaction video while preparing my lessons for tomorrow, let alone if I decided to watch the whole movie.

This was the last of the hand drawn animation by the old generation of animators from what I remember. An absolute classic in the Disney collectikn. Saw it in the theaters when I was a kid and it’s probably my favorite Disney movie of all time. I can still watch it. The music, the atmosphere of the animation… it’s a masterpiece, IMO.

I just never hear people mention it when talking about Disney movies.

When Copper started legitimately hunting Tod, it didn't feel like Copper. I knew he was Copper, but I knew that he was not playing around. The way Copper moved also felt different. Like it was on pure instinct. Same with Tod. It felt as if both Tod and I stopped seeing Copper and instead seeing a threat they had to get away with.

The book is WAAAAAY different from the Disney version. Male foxes are called Tods and female Foxes are called Vixens. First off the animals wasn't talking and Copper an Tod wasn't friends too. Also the hunter/master was an alcoholic. In the book Chief actually died when he got hot by the train. Which enraged the hunter. He taught Copper to ignore all other animals and to hunt Tod and only Tod. The hunter and Copper actually hunted killed 2 of Tod's Vixien and their litter of pups. Due to them wanting to get Tod and only Tod the hunter would set up traps and put out poison too. Which in turn a child ate some of the posion and died. After a long time of hunting the tod the hubter and copper went on a non stop hunt after tod for days until tod collapsed of exhaustion and died and copper bearly dying too. In the end though the hunter started to get old and i believe was going to an old folks home. Knowing he couldnt have copper there with him he took Copper and shot him before he left.
