A Few Of My Favorite Classic Cartoons Part 2/2

 


Dough Ray Me-Ow (1948) is another Looney Tunes cartoon that feels influential and hilarious. The characters names are Heathcliff, the cat, and Louie the parrot. Both of these guy's personalities are memorable to me. Like I remember that Heathcliff is dumb, I remember that Louie wants the money, it's fantastic. And the gags are all fun and enjoyable. By far my favorite is when Heathcliff thinks he's not four but he is with a certificate and he's running around with a cake with candles and a stick of dynamite. 


Woody Woodpecker's cartoons we're always interesting  and i do like the character, but I didn't really loved how he evolved. The design he has in his first few cartoons will always be my favorite, and the fact that Mel Blanc voices him. What makes Woody Woodpecker (1941) memorable to me, is that the acting is so related to something like Looney Tunes that I'm suprised that the Universal cartoons would do this. By far my favorite is when Woody is dealing with these cute animals, and Woody is showing off them with his tricks. I also like the fox alot as well. He has one of the best poses to a cartoon I ever seen. The ending was also funny. Give this one a watch. 


Bugs' Bonnets (1956) is by far one of my favorite Chuck Jones cartoons I ever seen. It's laugh-out-loud from start to finish. I still get these scenes stuck in my head to this day. The fact that these head accessories are falling from existence, and is what the entire point of this cartoon is, I don't blame it. It's like every minute of this cartoon Bugs, and Elmer are playing different roles that feel out of character for them. Also with Chuck Jones, I'm not necessarily fond of Chuck Jones's animation in the late 50s to 60s, but here it's hilarious because of the expressions and movement when certain things happen. And I have to give it his, Chuck Jones's Bugs Bunny design is so cute those days when he made these. I would highly give this one a go. You may think it's not the best cartoons ever but to me it is. 


Kitty Kornered (1946) is a cartoon I thought was the best I ever seen when I first saw it, and my opinion still stands. Porky Pig is one of my favorite characters and I found him more interesting than Daffy. I pretty much relate to him 24/7. This is by far the most influential cartoons I ever seen. All the cats designs has a certain charm to it, and the story is all over the place, but makes sense somehow. I have nothing else to say, it's just a cartoon I never get sick of with how many times I see it. 


Droopy's Double Trouble (1951) is one of my favorite Droopy shorts. It's one of the best ideas to a Tex Avery cartoon I ever seen. I always found the twin dynamic to be hilarious and really chaotic at times. But by far what makes this great is that you can't tell which one is who because their both wearing the same outfits and same face proportions. Butch has the best expressions to a Tex Avery cartoon I ever seen. Just look at these. 👇


              Those two expressions are meme-worthy.



The last cartoon I will be talking about is Awful Orphan (1949). My favorite of the Porky and Charlie Dog cartoons. Their dynamic is one of the greatest in the Looney Tunes catalog. Charlie Dog is the best character I ever seen. He just relates to my sense of humor and my mind while Porky relates to how I usually am in real life. The introduction is simply Charlie introducing himself to a bunch of strangers and it's just so cute and funny. And this also has the best moments to the series so far. Where Porky sends Charlie Dog off to Siberia and after kicked off, he wears Siberian clothes and does the Cossack dance. Which is by far my favorite dances in animation history. Love the aesthetic of this one and Chuck Jones's greats. 


Well, I'm done all 13 of these. I might be doing more but I'm willing to talk about other things. 

Anyways hope you like what i reviewed. And have a good Saturday. Bye-a 👋

A Few Of My Favorite Classic Cartoons Part 1/2

 If you haven't seen my first page. I was willing to talk about my favorite classic cartoons I have enjoyed for the past few years. And so far I have 7. I'm showing you 13. But 7 can take up this page. So let's begin. 




 

The Riveter (1940) is hilarious from start to finish. The late 30s to early 40s Donald Duck was the best. He had cartoons centered around slapstick and comedic timing and mostly he would come across Pete. It has some beautiful backgrounds and funny animation. When Donald starts to feel the rivet making the noises, it has some hilarious moments, like when Donald ruins Pete's sandwich. I would highly recommend you watching it. It's what I could consider a Disney Classic. 



Another classic disney short that is also my favorite is Billposters (1940). This is one of the most hilarious cartoons ever made where Donald and Goofy are displaying posters for a soup company. It starts to get funny once Goofy is doing the work, where he puts the poster on the windmill. It gets better and better. Highly recommend you watching this. This is somehow even underrated and not well liked by critics. Can't imagine why. 🙄


The Windblown Hare (1949) is one of my favorite Looney Tunes Shorts. It's not the first experience I ever had from this franchise but It's one I kinda overlooked for and the more times I watch it, the better. Robert McKimson is severely underrated and I found him way better than Chuck Jones. Sometimes he would make a Bugs Bunny cartoon so intense and his own characters, Foghorn Leghorn and Pete Puma are way more hilarious and fit in than Chuck Jones's Marvin The Martian and Pepe Le Pew, in my opinion. 

This cartoon is so hilarious that the pigs even make fun of the wolf for the sake of blowing houses. And Bugs is at his best here. He's mostly all interesting in his cartoons but here he's absolutely insane and more clever than I thought he ever was especially with his line deliveries. 



Art Davis to me is also overlooked the most with the Looney Tunes directors. He made one of the best cartoons Looney Tunes ever did. And this is called What Makes Daffy Duck (1948). The animation is rubbery which is what I love about it. It even has one the best title names to a cartoon. The gags are awesome and I appreciate this cartoon more for it's movement because i get these rubbery animated scenes stuck in my head all the time and i don't mind it. 



Red Hot Riding Hood (1943) - Tex Avery's MGM animated shorts have to be my favorites of all time. All of them were either great to masterwork. And this is one of my favorite classic cartoons ever. The intro starts off as a trick to think this was another Red Riding Hood parody and immediately the wolf demands something more unique even Red Riding Hood and the grandma agrees. It's one of the best introductions ever. I'm a big huge fan of fairytales and this kicked me off guard when I first saw it. I also love the Wolf's design when he is in his tuxedo suit. And Red's performance was also fun. I would highly recommend you watching this. This is what a cartoon should be. Fun gags, some unique music sequences, and feels real without feeling too surreal. 


Katnip Kollege (1938) is a cartoon that everyone seems to not care but I care the most. Mostly because I find it "The Most Underrated" this was great when I first saw it but then I loved it more with it's music, colorful characters and backgrounds. Johnny Cat is one of the coolest characters in the Looney Tunes catalog and his relationship with Kitty Bright is also fun too. When cartoons like these are made, it doesn't need to much of a story, it can just care about the music and energy much like how the 30s was. We didn't need sad, we needed happy. Especially with people back then in the last few years of The Great Depression. Feel free to watch this one if it interests you.



Screwball Squirrel (1944) is the last one I will be talking about on this page. This cartoon is the best ever in terms of the gags. And the intro with the disney styled squirrel was hilarious and relatable. Even though I am a Classic Disney Movie Fan myself, I never found that design good mostly cuz it felt too cutesy. Its close to the designs in Bambi which i never cared about and a Disney film thats not a classic in my taste. Anyways, while going through the gags, the best ones are when they are chasing around and somehow the frames are on repeat and Screwy doesn't know what's going on and Screwy looking at what he's doing next like he's flipping onto a page is pure Avery. I would recommend you watching this. 


I'll be back later for more of my favorite classic cartoons. 

In the meantime have a good day. 👍

Welcome.

I'm SNG. A person who has creativity in the heart, and comedy in the soul. 

My favorite hobby has always been drawing because it's an inspiration that will become the future in my life. 

I started out watching a bunch of TV shows on Nick Jr. and Cartoon Network when I was little and then began going on YouTube and exploring at a big kid age. 



               Yo Gabba Gabba was one of my biggest influences.



But then, I researched Tom and Jerry on the WB Kids channel, and I had to watch more of it. It started to begin when I was watching a more popular video on the channel. Presumably a compilation clip showed Tom and little bulldog, Tyke. It showed Tyke all messy and Tom was willing to dress himself like a chicken in clever ways. It's funny. And I all the sudden heard Tom screaming at the top of his lungs after Tyke bite his tail. I was absolutely satisfied and wanted to watch more of Tom and Jerry throughout time. This was when I searched for another classic cartoon called Looney Tunes and it changed my life.



    This is the scene that changed my life forever. From Slicked-Up Pup (1951) one of my favorite Tom and Jerry Shorts for that reason alone.


This was when I wanted to show the world what I got and began to have more of an interest in classic animation. The way characters moved, the immortal personalities, the wit, the timing everything in Tom and Jerry and Looney Tunes was pitch perfect. Even with their roughest decade the 60s, they had some OK and influential cartoons. 


And while I'm talking about classic cartoons, I want to talk about some of my favorites so far. But I got to leave it here. So until then, you'll see me check out some underrated gems you'll love to see. Bye-a! 👋
