Mighty Mouse DVD or Blu ray

​

I think next year for Mighty Mouses 85th anniversary, there should be a Blu-Ray or DVD collecting Mighty Mouse cartoons officially. I bet Paramount doesn't give a crap about Terrytoons, but I wish this would happen. Am I the only one who wants this? The only time an official mighty mouse DVD came out was for the Ralph Bakshi series.

The Mustache Maniac At Large!

"Daffy Doodles" (April 6, 1946) directed by Robert McKimson.

The evil laughter right at the beginning is hilarious!

Fun Fact: While "Daffy Doodles" is the first classic LT cartoon solely directed by Robert McKimson, "Mustache Maniac" was a working title for this short.

My favorite Looney Tune directors

I like the Looney Tunes. Ever since I saw Falling Hare on a bootleg DVD when I was a kid I really liked the Looney Tunes. Have 2 official Looney Tunes DVDs. Anyways, here's my favorite of the directors on the classic shorts, specifically the ones from the 1930s to the early 1960s, not the late 1960s, those cartoons are horrible. Why do I put Chuck in 3rd, because he's overrated. Bob Clampett in 6th because of his narcissim and taking credit for others work.

  1. Art Davis

  2. Friz Freleng

  3. Chuck Jones

  4. Bob McKimson

  5. Tex Avery

  6. Bob Clampett

  7. Frank Tashlin

  8. Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising

  9. Norm McCabe

  10. Ben Hardaway

  11. Earl Duvall

  12. Jack King

Yeah, I didn't forget about Duck Dodgers' birthday!!!!!

Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century is a Merrie Melodies cartoon directed by the animation legend Chuck Jones and a sci-fi parody of Buck Dodgers and the 25th Century. Ironically as people may point out, the short is also seen in The Bugs Bunny / Road Runner Movie (1979).

The question of the day is what would you give Duck Dodgers for a present?

Have a good day and you know who to call if Marvin the Martian shows up to claim Planet X in the name of Mars again so it's up to Duck Dodgers and Eager Young Space Cadet to set things right.

I discovered something about the PD status of Columbia cartoons

I discovered that a certain cartoon series that ran from 1930 to 1931 that was made by Screen Gems didn't have its copyright renewed. I'm talking about Toby the Pup. I discovered that his first film, The Museum, didn't have it's copyright renewed while searching through the 1958 copyright film renewals in the catalog. Wikipedia says that the majority of his films aren't renewed. I guess I answered my own question if any of the Columbia films are public domain.

5 page Popeye story, to be published

Hey guys - so, this is my version of Popeye. It takes place in South Africa, so a lot of the jokes are local - but that is its audience.

I'm self publishing a comic anthology of 5 page complete stories of PD characters and selling it in my shops (toys, comics and collectibles) and online

The reason is two-fold (maybe 3)

  1. I want to give exposure to local south african artists, so i have been speaking with some to add their own stories
  2. I want to print cheap comics - my idea is to sell these at 99c USD (around there, exchange rates fluctuate)
  3. Bonus - it is another item to sell in my store and its a nice way for me to make 5 page complete stories as 'exercise' between issues of my main comic which i also self publishing

Would be great to get your feedback

Other stories in the anthology currently (being worked on)

Buck Rogers
Black Terror
Red Riding Hood

Each with their own spin of course

The misleading fence painting gag from "Henhouse Henery"

"Henhouse Henery" was directed by Robert McKimson and premiered on July 2, 1949. In one scene, Foghorn paints a misleading image of what appears to be an open doorway between the fence walls. And well, you'll have to see it for yourselves. It's also the first Foghorn Leghorn cartoon where Foggy was singing "Camptown Races".

You'll have to excuse the scenes fading from and to Henery Hawk during the making this funny excerpt.

Here's to 77 years of "Henhouse Henery"!

LooneyUne Day 15: Scientist

I decided to draw the scientist from the 1955 film, The Hole Idea, a film that McKimson done entirely by himself.
