Line 3:
* [[Animation Age Ghetto]]: Siskel and Ebert's complaint about the movie was that it was too dark and depressing for children to handle. They said much the same thing about pretty much every [[Don Bluth]] movie though. The box office money it made shows that kids and adults were watching it anyway.
* [[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|Awesome Music]]: Since Heartwarming Moment isn't an option - "Somewhere Out There". Enough said.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Warren T. Cat is the greedy leader of the Mott Street Maulers, holds the downtrodden mice of New York in a chokehold, forcing them to pay him off under the guise of "Warren T. Rat" while secretly having his cats pick off a mouse every once and a while to keep them terrified and under control. When Warren stumbles upon the innocent orphan Fievel Mousekewitz in his introductory scene, Warren manipulates him into his clutches and then tosses him to the hold of a cruel sweatshop for a quick fifty cents, sneering "you don't need a family anymore—you got a job!" When the mice finally stand up to Warren's manipulations, Warren simply decides to cut his losses and tries to burn them all alive with a sick laugh.
* [[Ear Worm]]:
** THERE ARE NOOO CATS IN AMERICA AND THE STREETS ARE PAVED WITH CHEESE.
** Soooome wheeere, oouut theeere...
* [[First Installment Wins]]: Though there was a stretch during the nineties where ''Fievel Goes West'' was equally well-known, due to being a decent film with a simple genre hook, and also a spin-off series to keep it in kids' minds. Since then it's slipped back below the original in terms of popularity.
* [[
* [[Iconic Character, Forgotten Title]]:
** The movie is sometimes mistakenly called "Fievel" - that the sequel ''does'' have Fievel's name in the title likely doesn't help.
** Interestingly, in most other countries Fievel's name ''is'' in the title. Take Germany's ''Feivel Der Mauswanderer'' (Fievel The Mouse Wanderer) or Spain's ''Fievel Y El Nuevo Mundo'' (Fievel And The New World), for instance.
* [[Magnificent Bastard]]: Warren T
* [[Memetic Mutation]]: The site [
* [[Misaimed Marketing]]: Infamously, if unintentionally (one would hope), done by [[McDonald's]]. One of their special promotions tied into the film's winter release was a special offer involving Fievel... '''Christmas''' stockings.
* [[Moment of Awesome (Sugar Wiki)|Moment of Awesome]]:
Line 31 ⟶ 32:
* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: Fievel's parents really don't seem sad or concerned enough when Fievel falls off the train, and when they get to Green River they're more concerned about where they're going to be living than the whereabouts of their son. And when Fievel is reunited with them, they're happy, but they don't make a big deal out of it, as if it were some daily occurance. Considering they already declared him dead in the first film, [[Fridge Logic|you have to wonder what kind of parents they are]].
* [[Awesome Music (Sugar Wiki)|Awesome Music]]: The whole soundtrack to ''Fievel Goes West'' is great.
* [[
** Fievel gets sent away from the Indian mice, bouncing on a tumbleweed. While this happens, he is bouncing all the way back to the town while random critters sing the theme from ''Rawhide''.
** Don't forget Tiger dancing to "Puttin' on the Ritz" with a skeleton. Funny, but whaa--?.
Line 59 ⟶ 60:
* [[Toy Ship]]: Fievel and Cholena have a few [[Ship Tease|moments]] together, more than she and Tony do (their duet, "Anywhere in Your Dreams", being the example that stands out the most). For the most part they're the [[Fan-Preferred Couple]] of the film (also helped by fans who [[Ship Mates|prefer Tony staying with Bridget]]).
