Help with name of two 90's Disney movies?

Post by SwordInTheStone777 »

I vagly remember these two movies, but I do remember watching them on TheDisney Channle in the very early 90's.

One was about a talking cat that ate liver and onioins and the other was about a thief and had harmonica theme music in it.

Does anybody have any clue to what these movies names could be?

Only live-action talking Disney cat I remember was in "Hocus Pocus".

The only one there is, because the others are "Return from Witch Mountain" and "Race to Witch Mountain".

Witch Mountain isn't a 90's movie.

Anywho, a movie with a thief......

Maybe they weren't really Disney movies but you thought they were because they aired on the Disney Channel? Maybe they were obscure movies that Disney used to air on their channel.

Were they live action or animation?

I loved that version, along with the other 90's tv-movie remakes: The Shaggy Dog, Freaky Friday, The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes, and The Love Bug (well, that was a sequel, not a remake).

Disney should release those to DVD.

Hmm... They remade The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes? I have the DVD that exists right now, I quite liked that movie when I saw it a few years ago...

Yeah, the DVD is the 1969 one.

It's amazing what 30 seconds at imdb will do...

The Computer Wore Tennis Shoes (1995)

Lucky bastard.

I've got the 90s version of Freaky Friday, taped off of Disney Channel around 1997 or so. I wish I had taped the others (The Shaggy Dog especially) as I haven't seen them in years.

Now that I see that there was a Shaggy Dog 90's TV movie, the harmonica music maybe from that movie, cause I remember vagly that whenever the dog was doing anything the music acompanied to whatever the dog was doing.

Was there a TV movie of The Cat From Outer Space? Because I remember the cat that ate liver and onions was living with two kids and their grandpa maybe?

Nope, according to IMDb, there was only the one theatrical one from 1978.

Ok then I give up then.

Anybody remember watching a Disney Channle movie about a cat that lived with people that talked, I think telephaticly?

I must of seen this around anytime between 1992-1996.

The same goes for the dog and harmonica music movie.

Liver and onions reminds me of the Doug episode where he trained himself to eat liver and onions because he thought that's what he'd be eating when Patti invited him over for dinner. Or was it Bebe? Lol, either way, that phrase/dish "liver and onions" will always remind of that!

I don't know how relative this is, but the Wonderful World of Disney on ABC aired a mystery movie with Ricki Lake and a cat in the late 90s. Could this be it?

Oh, I didn't know that TV remakes were made for 70's movies.

It sort of sounds like The Cat From Outer Space, Jake (the cat) had a funky collar that allowed him to talk to the humans helping him. He didn't live with two kids and their grandpa though, it was a scientist who works in Physcics I think (spellings probably off on Physics >_<)

Its not The Cat From Outer Space. I cant remember these two movies really well, because I was around 4-7 when I saw them originally.
