The Great Mouse Detective/Funny

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


  • For some reason the way Basil's housekeeper reacts to him shooting the pillows always has me in stitches.

Housekeeper: My good pillows!

  • "It will be most dangerous." *Accidentally sits on violin*
  • "It was my fond hope to stay and witness your final scene, but you were fifteen minutes late.."
  • Personally, one of my FAVORITE parts is when Basil is gearing Toby up for searching out Fidget. The whole time Toby is growling and looking angry. Then THIS happened:

Basil: Low brow, close set eyes, broken wing-
Toby: *once the last one is mentioned, he looks at Basil with a look of clear confusion*
Basil: Oh, he's a peg-legged bat with a broken wing.

    • In an instant, he's back to growling angrily. I ALWAYS laugh at that part!
  • Pretty much anything Ratigan says and/or does when he's not pushed to psychotic extremes. Vincent Price nailed down his gleefully evil personality with 100% accuracy with an extra 20% humour thanks to his chivalry.
