Hey,any of you ever hear of a stray Irish Setter called Scruffy?probably not..huh?Well im sure all of you have heard of Lady the Cocker Spanial and her owner Jim Dear and Darling.Ok,my point here is that before Lady and the Tramp there was a movie called Scruffy about a stray Irish Setter whos mother was mistaken for a wolf and shot...so we see through the movie that Scruffy gets numerous homes untill she finds her permanent one at the end,meanwhile cshe meets dogs like Butch,hes the leader of the street dogs[in LATT Tony and that other guy Call Tramp"Butch"]now Scruffy can match up to as Lady..noew the people who drew Scruffy mad her look like an Cocker Spaniel,even though she was an Irish Setter,so as you can see Disneys "remake"of Scruffy was interpitated wrongly and they though Scruffy was a Cocker Spaniel...she was an Irish Setter...now the reason why I am posting this is to show you Lady and the Tramp is not an original movie this isnt like the Lion King Kimba conterversy its different there is proof that LATT is a copy.

yes I do I cant recall but there is a site i went to once with Scruffy screenshots and everything and the story is just like Lady and the Tramp and so is the name..like Butch if you listen in LATT they DO call Tramp Butch..thats my proof and they also stole a part from Scruffy to make Bambi where Scruffys mother if shot by hunters while Scruffy runs away.theres my proof.

When was this film made?

Its extremely old I think it was made by Buena Vista.

A lot of themes are similar, not through copying and all, but just naturally. You can't be 100% pro sure that Bambi copied Scruffy, with the proof you have. That's only and opinion you got there. And the LATT, well okay, but have you got any articles or something, or is that just your opinion?

Cat,its no opinion if you saw the characters and watched the movie you would understand.

GIVE US THE SITE ADDRESS!!!

edit and put this in non caps please,and i do not remember the site and the screen shots werent all great whoever took them took them badly they all had black lines on the top of the shot.

I foudn this about a movie called Scruffy, and it was made in 1980 so no way would Lady and the Tramp be based off of it if this is the same film you are referring to.

Also Buena Vista is asociated with Disney.

OK,kk,Latt and Scruffy is made by the same people,and I think maybe scruffy came before bambi,so maybe bambi took a part from scruffy.They are ALL made from DISNEY!AND greykitty said Buenna vista is assoiciated with disney,so I dont think LATT is a copy.

Bambi couldn't be a copy since Scruffy was made in the 80's, Bambi was made about 40 years before.

ok number one,no fighting ok?Im sorry i was confused on release dates and I am not sure if Buena Vista was owned by disney yet..Bw please dont yell at me,and thankyou both.b/t/w Greykitty the site I was looking at must have been a fake because it said Scruffy was released before LATT.
