This is a quirky but fun idea I wanted to make as a post.
You may have known these familiar famous faces, I know I certainly have, in fact, all of these people you see here are people I find legendary in pop culture. These are unique and rare photos I caught on the internet.
First is Mel Blanc meeting with Clarence Nash. As you might already know Blanc is known for voicing Porky Pig and Nash most famously voices Donald Duck. So what did you expect? It actually happened.
This is a great picture.
Who'll win?
Disney or Looney Tunes?
I'm an extremely huge fan of Bing Crosby. I had a huge influence on him for about 2 1/2 years. He has teamed with incredible people. This is him meeting with Glenn Miller. Both are music legends. I was astounded when I first discovered this photo.
With other people he has met, he definitely has met Sinatra, I loved his radio shows with Judy Garland, and Ella Fitzgerald.
I also love this picture of Bing and Nat King Cole.
He also teamed with Walt Disney, the studio was working on The Adventures Of Ichabod And Mr. Toad, in which he is the narrator in the Sleepy Hollow segment. He truly made that movie a masterpiece.
Recently, I watched some clips of Bing and Fred Astaire and they are truly wholesome and sweet. These were mostly made in promotion to their own album together. This was back in 1975. Have a watch.
Here's two more you'll be destined to be impressed by.
Lastly, is Nat King Cole and Betty Hutton, the most underappreciated collaboration ever witnessed.
I'm a big fan of both Nat and Betty, but this was surprising to me because I never expected these two to get together, they even perform so well. Let me just say it was a blast. I know the title of this video says Part 2, but it's way longer and Part 1 only had Betty sing herself in that video.
Your going to love this one. They do their own version of Anything You Can Do, which is a creatively magnificent song and as always Hutton is just as goofy and entertaining as she was born to be.
Enjoy! 👍
There is a slight possibility a Part 2 might come out. But I have no idea yet.
Went out today to buy some cool stuff including DVDs and toys.
Managed to get a DVD of a movie I really want to watch, probably tonight, Easter Parade. I've been loving Fred Astaire, and Judy Garland! I also appreciate the humor in Cartoon Network's MAD. It's an underrated show that should just only be taken for laughs.
Jiminy Cricket is probably the most relatable character ever. He's really honest and reliable but also has a fiesty attitude at times. He literally tells Pinocchio the truth, and both him and Cricket to be a dynamic duo.
I love collecting little animals in human clothing, it's very handsome and elegant. So I bought a bear with a cute straw hat and unique pose. It was a good price. Only a dollar, makes for a good item in my collection.
Most people find porcelain dolls to be creepy and unnerving. I think they're one of the best, most cutest and fashionable things I ever seen in my life.
I love the simple yet gorgeous faces given on each of the characters. They don't give a ton of personality but who cares? Red Riding Hood is really adorable. They even close their eyes and open them when you touch them. It's so silly yet amazing detail.
I also think baby dolls are cute too. Not all of them hold up, but these are almost all appealing and appreciated as a gift or something you can buy yourself. The tiger outfit kinda reminds me of Tigger for some reason.
They're simply beautiful and nothing like any other toy. Other types of toys including action figures may had more effort into making them but I feel like these don't get enough credit because I doubt they appeal to everybody.
They remind me of how life should be. Being quiet, observant, and healthy while also having a neat sense of style.
Have an incredible Andrews Sisters poster. I've been a fan of their music for almost a year now and it's good to see some respect for classic musicians even with merchandising being a big cultural impact amongst fans.
So with all the DVDs I bought today, I have with my collection. Don't know what'll happen if I run out of room but it's looking fantastic.
I can tell you one thing. I don't like Casper looking at me, that's for sure.
You know how people always think to themselves they would watch something that feels special to them, maybe it's something old, but they've wished to be living in that decade?
Some people might say the 80s, the 60s, the 70s, to me it would be the 40s.
This is why the 1940s was the greatest
BIG BANDS!
WACKY CARTOONS!
MUSICAL MOVIES!
THE MODEST FASHION!
Everything about this decade was fantastic. But what about other decades?
I love the 1930s too. So does the 50s, every other decade is good but not as powerful. That being said I think alot of good has happened after the golden age of entertainment passed on, but man the 30s to the 50s, were probably the best the entire world has to offer.
When I watch an old film, I like how more logical and sensible the characters and actions are. This was also the course where things start to get even funnier.
Throughout the course of the early 20th century, films were silent, and you couldn't even get the knowledge of laughing too much or relating to the characters.
The late 20s, to early 30s, everyone was talkin' and it became more lively and natural.
There was a potential rise to cartoons as well. There were a few exceptions to cartoons back then like Out Of The Inkwell, and Winsor McCay's shorts but that's it really.
There was strong characters in the 30s through the 50s. Every character that is still considered popular today was created this period of the century.
I'll name a few characters
Bugs Bunny
Porky Pig
Goofy
Donald Duck
José Carioca
Foghorn Leghorn
Droopy
Man, I would've lived my whole life expecting something fresh and iconic more commonly than today. Disney Movies were a big exception by the 30s-40s.
The reason why I think the later Disney movies don't do much to me anymore it's because of the amount of dialogue you have to be awake to.
This is Bambi, a movie that barely has any dialogue whatsoever. Sure, it does have some speaking in it, but it isn't stuffed with drama too often. Not to mention that the calm and quiet environments is what makes a movie focus.
I imagined Artmania especially my TV show to have dancing scenes and music just like the classics because you just can't beat THE CLASSICS!
When I worked on Artmania's Spirit Of Christmas last December, one post I payed tribute to the big bands like Glenn Miller, Benny Goodman, and Tommy Dorsey. With all those unique and stylish names, I created band leader, Vinn Kringle.
What happened to this type of music? Where did it go?
I seem to think every musician and song I love best doesn't get the impact and recognition they really deserve anymore. I know we have to move forward, but it really staggers me that for such a chaotic world we're living in right now, I can't see why the most calm piece of entertainment is hidden by most people. I mean it's free to experience and explore around.
YouTube isn't all about content farms and trends you know.
If your a fan of classics and both exploring social media, you would know you shouldn't be afraid to search random clips of talents and performances. You don't have to pay online for movies if you don't want to, you can just freely experience around 2-5 minutes of fun.
Speak for yourself.
The Andrews Sisters were special to me. I remember first experiencing and listening to their biggest hits, and something about these three just felt easy to appreciate and they had a sense of humor mostly when they were on screen.
Attractiveness
There was something so unique about how people looked and dressed like back in the golden age of hollywood.
Judy Garland is one of those actresses that shine just the way you look at the fashion, and style. I truly love her, her singing voice is full of beauty.
The Amount Of Funny Stuff You'll Get
I watched a few Three Stooges shorts lately and I think it's one of the most hilarious series of entertainment I ever seen.
If you get the outlandish speech given with one of the characters, you'll easily find it more normal to experience. The jokes and gags felt more creative and simple back then.
Tex Avery for example would add a sign to one of his cartoons and I always found those to be hilarious since it's a sign of reality.
I also think this is how comedy should work and not a bunch of horrendously bad celebrity roasts and shock value.
Drawn Energy
I call it this because these films can easily get stuck in your mind, and whenever your playing a song that sounds groovy to listen to, you can draw your mind into the classic animated movements of characters or real people dancing along with the song.
Remember The Three Caballeros? I usually have those dance scenes drawn into me even ever since I first watched them.
This is one of my favorite scenes from that movie.
You see movie posters nowadays, they look good, but they're kinda lazy in terms of the cast of characters.
When I look at these, it just warms my heart because artists back then used their artistic skills to paint all these people and advertise it.
This is me bringing back that old-school spirit.
The best decades of all time relate to my drawing style and perspective of how I view creativity and knowledge.
I hope you all liked what I enjoy about these decades and their wonderful chemistry of entertainment and timeless value.
