Anybody Here Like "Old School" Cartoons?
Edited on Mon Mar-03-08 06:37 PM by Dinger
I love Sylvester & Tweety! Especially the one where Sylvester dies 8 times, and hides in a bank vault with TONS of cat food, in the hopes of avoiding death # 9. Well, two bank robbers come and blowup the place, and one says to the other: "You used too much Mugsy!"

21. I'm trying to find the first one I ever saw
I was about 4. :)

It was one of those where she found herself in a Strange Place. The only detail I remember is there were two or three frogs singing, "Welcome" to her. One kept going "Ba-doop-doop-doop," and then another one would zip that one's mouth closed.

Thought it was "Blunderland," but it isn't.

7. don't forfrget the old Mighty Mouse ones from the '50 s and other Terry Toons
and of course all WArner Bros cartoons ROCK
DuckTales , which is in the OLD SCHOOL style is a nearly perfect cartoon series.

I like the one where Sylvester and Porky pull up to the creepy little hotel in the middle of nowhere and are driven totally insane by the mice.

13. One of the funniest Warner Bros. cartoons ever has Daffy Duck warning...
...Little Red Riding Hood about the wolf.

It's from the classic "Book Revue".

Daffy launches into a Danny Kayesque scat; "great big teeth to eat you with... shoot doot dooty obal leet shoo with" then ends up gnawing on her leg for emphasis.

15. "Long-Haired Hare" is still a masterpiece of comedy.
The comedic joys of hearing an operatic tenor sing: "What do they do in Mississippi, when skies are drippy?"

And of course, the cartoon ne plus ultra of Bugs Bunny impersonating Leopold Stokowski and forcing Giovanni Jones to render that impossibly long note.

Joy. Sheer joy. :-)

leaving his hand hovering in mid-air in the "fortissimo" direction. :D

17. The thing I love most about Bugs Bunny is his absolute, unshakeable self-confidence.
It takes moxie to go out into the orchestra pit of the Hollywood Bowl and get professional musicians to believe your the great Leopold. But he never turned, excuse me, a hair. B-)

20. Clutch Cargo, with his pals Spinner and Paddlefoot...
...inspiration for the "mouth" interviews on Late Night with Conan O'Brien. "Syncro Vox Technology" was basically the least animated cartoon you've ever seen with a human mouth stripped into the characters' heads, speaking the script.

I have both of the "complete series" DVD sets:

22. I love the cartoons of the 1930s.

The black and white Popeye cartoons were far superior animation than
the later toons.
I guess that during the Depression, the studios could afford to pay
the illustrators to draw more pages per minute or whatever it is that
gives animation a more fluid motion.
I especially liked a Warner Brothers character by the name of Egghead
even though he was in only 4 toons. Interesting enough, he was given the
name of Elmer Fudd in one episode.

Porky Pig was shorter, fatter, and had a worse stutter(I know, not very P.C.)
but was much funnier.
