Having nine lives.

I associate that prompt in 14,000 Things To Be Happy About with these characters because - well, nine lives is what you think about when you see Channel 4's 100 Greatest Cartoons.

the Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat is really bad…

[cartoon-buffoon]

Its about that time of the month where I get obsessed with a fictional man who is a total piece of shit and this month's furry cartoon man is—

God do I hate Fritz... Like, this dude is a fucking sucks and is piece of shit who deserves to be thrown in a meat grinder yet at the same time I love him.

Also a ramble/review but I watched the first Fritz the cat movie and the sequel which is dubbed "The Nine lives of Fritz the cat". Both movies are easily available to watch on a very public website that I will not disclose due to I do not want either of them taken down (just do a quick Google search and you'll see the website I'm talking about, also donate to that said website!!! It's been a life saver for finding certain films, cartoons, or old books) anyways: Jesus Christ the first movie disturbed me in a way that I haven't felt in awhile. The third act of the first movie particularly fucked me up because it brought up some trauma and I had to pause and come back due to a certain scene (if you know you know). I still liked the first movie despite EVERYTHING it has as it actually does somewhat try and give some commentary or satire on stuff— I also do see why Robert Crumb despised the first movie because of the whole painting leftists as bad thing, I can see his point of view—It does a good job on making you look back into how different times were of the 60s too. That's about all I'm gonna say about the content of the first movie because there is A LOT, and I mean A LOT of stuff that I'm not qualified to talk about, and I ain't gonna pretend I'm qualified to talk about it. I am not that guy/girl. As for the second movie?... I honestly don't have fucking anything to say about the second movie it's a quite literal drug trip because the entire plot is a drug trip, and honestly I'm trying to forget it. It's like they took the first movie and it's 3 loosely chained together plots that have NOTHING to do with each other and went "let's chain even more things that have nothing to do with each other and tie it all together by the fact that it's all one giant weed induced hallucination". I'm aware it's like an anthology movie but that doesn't stop it from being a piss poor one. Idk only watch the first one if you want anything of substance really and even if you do watch the second one get ready for a clusterfuck of a film. Oh and if you're gonna watch the first heed all the warnings you see in reviews of it because as the poster and marketing for the first one says: "we're not ain't rated X for nothin' baby!"

Like seriously there is a lot of stuff—adult stuff—people probably still won't be okay viewing and if you aren't valid I just watched it for the sake of my own animation history loving heart.

Holy Crap!!! .... Robert Crumb's Fritz the Cat Cover Original Art from the paperback comix recently sold at Auction for an amazing $717,000!!

Here, Fritz gets cozy with girlfriend Charlene in this famous cover image, taken from the oversized collection of stories first published by Ballantine in October, 1969. This book was so popular, it rated a second printing a month later! The image would go on to inspire a popular statue by Randy Bowen and Neil Surges in 2003 that quickly sold out.

This is perhaps one of the most famous and important single pieces of art by Crumb, one that has been stashed away in a private collection for many years. It's sure to be the centerpiece of any collection of Underground Comix art. It's in ink on Bristol board, with an approximate image area of 11" x 12.5".

Although later abandoned by the artist, Fritz remains one of R. Crumb's most popular characters, one that dates back to the homemade comics Robert was producing as a teenager in the early sixties.

Fritz himself would go on to star in two feature-length animated movies, Fritz the Cat (1972), and The Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat (1974). Crumb hated the Ralph Bakshi movie adaptations so much that he ultimately drew a story in which Fritz was stabbed to death by his ex-girlfriend.

RIP Fritz.... you were Always MY kinda cat.

Western Animated Movie Sequel Timeline

For reference... On how few theatrical animated movie sequels were made in the West vs. how many have been made since the early 2000s... (Streaming titles like THE SEA BEAST 2 will be included, because these are big budget enough to have been theatrical releases.)

Titles highlighted in blue have commas in them, this denotes that you're not looking at two separate titles. (Just in case you happen to not know-)

I also won't include reboots. For example: The upcoming Paramount Animation film TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES: MUTANT MAYHEM, which despite being a TMNT movie, it has no other relation to the Imagi Studios 2007 TMNT movie. The same goes for the two SMURFS reboots, 2017's THE LOST VILLAGE and Paramount's untitled upcoming musical.

I'll also leave out animated movies that are part of franchises that are largely live-action, like STAR WARS: THE CLONE WARS.

I genuinely hate The Nine Lives of Fritz the Cat it’s such a dogshit sequel however I think about Fritz’s wife screaming at him, “never in my life have I seen anyone walk around more stoned than you” or whatever she said everytime I get really really high
