Oliver & Company
Directed by George Scribner
Putting its own 'twist' on the story of Oliver Twist, the orange runt of a litter of kittens must fight for survival on the rough streets on New York City, finding unlikely friends in the dogs owned by a down-on-his luck man named Fagin. Soon, Oliver and his new band of comrades must fight for survival when Fagin is unable to pay his debts. From TMDB

60 of 123 · most liked firstRewatched Oliver & Company for the first time in a while, and, I know this has been said before, but this is such an underrated movie. The animation style, the interesting take on 'Oliver Twist,' the soundtrack. It's so good.

neutral · AI labelView post →Having Oliver & Company set in modern-day 1988 New York City in real life may have dated the film, but I think that's what makes it unique in a way. Did any of you guys notice the brand names like Coca-Cola, USA Today, McDonald's, Sony, and Yamaha?
positive · AI labelView post →One fun fact I learned today is that before he went on to become an extremely serious filmmaker on things like Cop Land, Girl Interrupted, Logan and others, James Mangold got his start working for Disney, writing a Sunday night movie titled The Deacon Street Deer, and also co-wrote Oliver & Company.
neutral · AI labelView post →Very sad to hear that animation legend Roger Allers has died aged 76. He co-directed The Lion King (1994), and also worked on Oliver & Company, The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, The Emperor’s New Groove, Lilo & Stitch, and Open Season. www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie...

positive · AI labelView post →Oliver & Company came on this morning. It’s been a while since I’ve even seen a frame of the movie. In one of the opening scenes it show this young character trying to pet Oliver. And made me think, was this the first time an Asian was depicted in a feature Disney Animated film?

I forgot the movie addresses homelessness & poverty in such a raw way. Folks say “you couldn’t make that today” about movies & of course you could, but Disney would NEVER make that now.

neutral · AI labelView post →When they were making The Little Mermaid, the directors were told to temper their expectations because there was no way it was going to be as big of a hit as Oliver & Company, because O&C was a boys ("general audiences") movie and TLM would only appeal to girls. TLM almost doubled O&C's box office.

neutral · AI labelView post →Oliver & Company: A Disney film I had never seen! Might be a personal comfort one for me now, though I do see quite a few flaws with it's execution, but it's one of their most unique films, and I think it's massively underrated, also that Billy Joel song is just peak.
neutral · AI labelView post →There are people claiming that Oliver & Company is a better film than The Little Mermaid and has better songs, but needless contrarianism is no way to live.

positive · AI labelView post →Oliver & Company is a top five Walt Disney Animation Studios film and better than all those "Disney Renaissance" films that came immediately after it.

positive · AI labelView post →And that it just keeps repeating regardless of examples to the counter. I mean, The Little Mermaid "Jeffrey Katzenberg warned the directors ahead of time that since this was a "girl's movie," it would probably make less than Oliver & Company, which had been the studio's biggest hit of the decade. "
neutral · AI labelView post →12.) Oliver & Company Overall a fun movie for me, but expected since it's animal shenanigans and good music 😆 Two things surprised me at the credits: seeing Billy Joel in there (listened to his music a lot growing up) and seeing that this movie was an adaptation of a book. #kiy2026media
positive · AI labelView post →7. The first movie I ever saw in theaters and one of my favorite memories; my mom picked me up from school for a movie date to see OLIVER & COMPANY (1988) and I lost my little three year old mind! I’ve been in love with the film and movies since, and have owned it in every format.
positive · AI labelView post →As a kid, I remember, besides Billy Joel being no draw at all, the name of the film Oliver & Company seemed very off-putting. Like "he has a company? I don't care about that. I'm a kid". Why would a kids film put Company in the title? At least Wonka counterbalanced the Factory with Chocolate.

neutral · AI labelView post →Just going by how well I remember it, the first time I saw a movie in theaters was Oliver & Company when I was 5; I remember how huge I thought the screen was, how my mom used my coat to smuggle popcorn in from home (it was Redenbacher Dill Seasoned, which I've never seen since)
positive · AI labelView post →I just rewatched Oliver & Company last week. It rules! Cool take on Oliver Twist and a great New York movie!
positive · AI labelView post →Me too. My wife and I looked at each other ands/raised eyebrows both said “Oliver & Company”? Fun film (MNNA)
positive · AI labelView post →Btw I just started the new movie Mike & Nick & Nick & Alice (the Hulu movie with Vince Vaughn and Jason Marsden) and the movie’s opening scene is Ben Schwartz singing “Why Should I Worry” from Oliver & Company. I better see edits of movie Sonic jamming out to this and singing this.
neutral · AI labelView post →9. Oliver & Company New "best soundtrack for a Disney movie" contender just dropped for me Also, Oliver is a cute boy
positive · AI labelView post →Billy Joel is a legend. His performance as Dodger in Oliver & Company and the song “Why Should I Worry?” made for the film are especially great.
neutral · AI labelView post →HBO’s Billy Joel documentary, BILLY JOEL: AND SO IT GOES, is really great… … except it neglects to mention Joel’s voice acting and singing for Walt Disney Animation’s last pre-renaissance animated feature film, the mostly forgotten OLIVER & COMPANY.
neutral · AI labelView post →Hearing there was going to be a live action "The Aristocats" but it's been cancelled just dredged up my memory of a dream where I signed to direct a live action "Oliver & Company" which was being produced by Fred Durst because it was his favorite movie and also he INSISTED he had to play Dodger.
neutral · AI labelView post →it makes me think of the movie Oliver & Company, when Oliver walks over the grate and gets all puffed out.
neutral · AI labelView post →My LaserDisc of Oliver & Company looks amazing. If they drew in the buttholes on all the animals, it would be the most anime Disney film ever.
positive · AI labelView post →It's funny how I have the trailer to "Oliver & Company" permanently burned into my brain from when I was a kid, but I never actually saw the movie until I was an adult.
neutral · AI labelView post →Oliver & Company, I love this movie!
positive · AI labelView post →Obviously Whoopi Goldberg was perfect for Sister Act, but I sometimes wonder if Midler's Touchstone run might have been extended, had she done the film. I do think Oliver & Company, which Midler performed in, was as close a Disney animated musical could get to an '80s Touchstone movie.
neutral · AI labelView post →We watched Oliver & Company over the weekend. Haven’t seen that movie in like 30 years. Still holds up great
positive · AI labelView post →Man I been on a Disney movie craze atm. Rewatched Robin Hood, The Aristocats, Oliver & Company, The Great Mouse Detective! Man where time has gone by since I’ve watched these classics.

neutral · AI labelView post →I know I also saw Oliver & Company but zero memory of that movie... other than the Disney VHS commercials that all had the one Billy Joel song
neutral · AI labelView post →Yes, I understand Eddie's point. your q: at first I thought 'there must be' but... Robin Hood is the only movie of its type - there are other talking-animal led Disney animations, but they're all original characters or adaptions of animal led books. Maybe Oliver & Company, but that fails on good.
