They are briefly thwarted, then use a can as a boat. They enter the house and start attacking furniture, then the house itself. Their job complete and bellies full, they rest long enough for Popeye to eat his spinach and rebuild his house in steel.

Popeye: A Haul in One

ToonAdmin — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 14:20:50 +0000

Popeye and Bluto are, believe it or not, pals and partners in a moving company. (Maybe it’s because Popeye isn’t squinting here.) Anyhow, Olive has made the mistake of hiring them. She hasn’t finished packing yet, so the boys, smitten as soon as she answers the door, compete to help her. Once packed, they compete to move more impressive piles of her belongings. Popeye easily wins these contests, even though Bluto locks him in the van at one point. At the end, Bluto socks Popeye into the piano, then into a table; though he hardly seems to need it, Popeye still eats his spinach, then thrashes Bluto.

They find a group of yodelers on the side of another mountain, and are then lured to a Swiss chalet by one of them using some Swiss cheese on a string. When the locals get angry, Tom and Jerry try to appease them by yodeling, playing instruments and dancing. They then steal some Swiss cheese, which makes them both holey; mice, mistaking them for cheese, chase them down the mountain.

Red Riding Hood

ToonAdmin — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 23:05:51 +0000

An imaginative version of the old folktale, directed by Harry Bailey and John Foster.

“In this version of the story, Grandma’s got more bite than the wolf! After drinking a magic “jazz tonic,” Grandma feels young again, and the fun begins. The wolf is astonished when he finds a flirtatious, smoking flapper at the house in the woods. He may be big and bad, but he can’t help falling in love. Do we hear the dinner bell or wedding bells? The wolf-Grandma wedding is halted at the last minute when the wolf’s wife gets wind of the ceremony. She and their many cubs - all carrying rolling pins - storm the church.”

Tom and Jerry: Redskin Blues

ToonAdmin — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 13:57:51 +0000

Tom and Jerry find their wagon west attacked by Indians, but escape only after being rescued by all the branches of the military, including the Army’s tanks.

A cartoon with lots of music and action as well as ethnic stereotypes the 1930s way: “An unremarkable wild west cartoon is improved by the comedy of the unexpected. Numerous seemingly fat, cloaked Indians are unwrapped to reveal beautiful girls; when the cavalry leader uncloaks the Chief, he’s revealed as a Jewish caricature. The Jewish Indian was a standard vaudeville gag at the time, in part the result of Fanny Brice’s hit song on the theme (I’m an Indian).”

Tom and Jerry: Piano Tooners

ToonAdmin — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 13:54:51 +0000

Tom and Jerry (the human versions, not the cat and mouse) work as piano tuners. After seeing them at work and several creative ways of tuning a piano (such as removing the offending key and cutting the key itself to a shorter length), the two attend an opera singers performance. The singer passes out when the piano plays a wrong note, and Tom and Jerry are pressed into service to re-tune the piano. After pulling the offending key from the keyboard like a bad tooth, the two give the opera audience a jazz piano performance, with the now recovered opera singer joining in.

Tom And Jerry: Plane Dumb

ToonAdmin — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 13:50:51 +0000

Tom and Jerry are transporting goods via airplane to Africa. But being white men they’re worried they won’t be safe, so they put on blackface to fit in. Once they’re wearing it, they adopt black dialect and fully inhabit their new characters. They crash into the ocean and use the wing of the plane as a raft. Before reaching land, they suffer the advances of an over-affectionate octopus and more serious danger from sharks, a swordfish and a whale. Once on land, they’re frightened by fantastic creatures, and duck into a cave. Inside it’s even worse when they encounter living skeletons in blackface. And upon exiting the cave, things are even worse than that when they are discovered by cannibals.

Tom And Jerry: Pencil Mania

ToonAdmin — Mon, 01 Sep 2008 13:40:51 +0000

This Tom and Jerry cartoon (the human versions, not the cat and mouse) is an opportunity for the animators to have fun with the medium. There is no specific plot. One of the boys uses a pencil to create a myriad number of animated illusions that could only work in a cartoon. For example, a short vertical line is drawn, which when held by both ends suddenly becomes a saxophone. When played, the notes pop out of the bell of the instrument to suddenly grow legs and transform into ducks. After the song, the saxophone itself quickly follows suit and becomes a goose. The entire short consists of these disjointed, though often creative and humorously unlikely events.

It takes a little help from some spinach, but Popeye gets everything sorted out, and he escorts Pappy back to the ship, where he hogties him into his hammock. To no avail; as soon as the light’s out, Popeye discovers Pappy’s snuck off again and tied a net around Popeye’s bed.

Tom and Jerry: Pots and Pans

ToonAdmin — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 11:00:51 +0000

Pots and Pans is another Van Beuren cartoon that stars a couple of humans named Tom and Jerry, years before a certain cat-and-mouse team from MGM inherited those titles after the human ones disappeared. They run a train diner with their name on it. Many of the food have faces and move. They also sing with various customers along with the leading duo. Typical ’30s-style animation meant to mainly fill time before the big feature is at least a little more entertaining than any Saturday morning cartoon that has limited movement because of low budgets. Anyone interested in all eras of animation or at least all things Van Beuren should definitely check out Pots and Pans.

Molly Moo-Cow and the Indians

ToonAdmin — Sat, 30 Aug 2008 06:03:51 +0000

Molly Moo-Cow was an animated character appearing in eight Rainbow Parade shorts produced by the Van Beuren Studios 1935-1937. Many 1930s cartoons joke with ethnicity. In this cartoon cooperation is needed to handle pluralism.

The Sunshine Makers

Porky Pig: Ali Baba Bound

ToonAdmin — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 22:53:52 +0000

The Arabs look evil and behave really bad in this racist cartoon, but the heroic pig looks a little strange too. There are no references to religion here, but some of the Arab stereotypes depicted have been revitalized in recent caricatures of Muslims, notably in the caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed.

Can Porky save the fort from invasion by Ali Baba? Porky must defeat Ali Baba’s army and secret weapons in order to be hero.

PS March 2, 2008: Thanks to Logoliker2004 for noting that this is a colorized version of the original black and white cartoon (which is in the Public Domain). IMDb describes the alternate versions: “This cartoon was colorized in 1968 by having every other frame traced over onto a cel. Each redrawn cel was painted in color and then photographed over a colored reproduction of each original background. Needless to say, the animation quality dropped considerably from the original version with this method. The cartoon was colorized again in 1992, this time with a computer adding color to a new print of the original black and white cartoon. This preserved the quality of the original animation.”

Baby Huey: Quack-A-Doodle-Doo

ToonAdmin — Fri, 29 Aug 2008 21:28:52 +0000

The first Baby Huey cartoon.
