Nice Kitty...: Difference between revisions

* Complete inversion on ''[[Azumanga Daioh (Manga)|Azumanga Daioh]]'': The animal is tiny, not big; the character approaches it while placating it instead of backing away, and instead of it turning out to be nice, it turned out to be [[More Teeth Than the Osmond Family|exactly as dangerous as it didn't look.]]

* Disney's ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]''. As can be heard [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azx4nULOlhg here, starting at 8:10], Aladdin says "Down kitty...Look! A mouse!...Scat...C'mon, good tiger... Take off and go!...Down kitty".

* Mike in the Teaser Trailer for ''[[Monsters, Inc.]]'': "Nice doggy. Nice ''big'' doggy."

* In ''[[Octopussy (Film)|Octopussy]]'', [[James Bond]] commands a tiger to "Sit!" (in Barbara Woodhouse's distinctive tone). And it does.

* In ''[[Ghostbusters (Film)|Ghostbusters]]'' when Louis Tully is confronted by the monstrous Vinz Clortho, he tries to soothe it with, "Good doggie...nice little pooch..."

* [[Pee WeesWee's Big Adventure]] - stranded in the middle of nowhere in pitch dark, Pee-Wee hears nearby growling and nervously goes "nice kitty..." When he turns on a light, he finds himself surrounded by big predatory animals that absolutely don't belong in the American desert southwest.

* [[The Aristocats (Disney)|"Nice doggy, nice doggy, roll over, play dead!"]]

* In a ''[[King's Quest V Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder (Video Game)|King's Quest V]]'' death, Graham says "nice birdie" to a roc hatchling about to eat him. {{spoiler|Of course, that death is averted if he [[Mercy Rewarded|gave the remaining meat to an eagle]] and grabbed the pendant on the roc's nest before the egg hatched.}}

* I know I've seen this on ''[[The Simpsons (Animationanimation)|The Simpsons]]'' with Homer doing a Phil Silvers-esque voice, but I don't know if Phil Silvers himself ever did it or not. (Or [[Top Cat]], who was based on Silvers.)

* ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender (Animation)|Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'': Aang flees a big horned gorilla thing until he realizes it's King Bumi's pet. Then he tentatively asks, "...Flopsy?" To which Flopsy responds by grabbing him and cuddling him.

* In ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series (Web Video)|Yu-Gi-Oh the Abridged Series]]'', Bakura tries that offscreen with a tiger. [[The Chew Toy|Doesn't help, obviously.]]
