    Goofy's Voice

    How many times was Goofy's voice performed by Pinto Colvig? Did Colvig still do his voice even in cartoons where he doesn't have a 'goofy' voice (eg. "Tomorrow We Diet", "Motor Mania", "Cold War") or was it someone else? I also know that Colvig left Disney in 1939 to work for Max Fleischer...

    Turner/WB merge

    Everyone knows (well here at least :p ) than Time Warner merged with Turner in 1996. To cartoon fans, that meant that WB now had acess to their pre-48 cartoons, Hanna Babera shows and the entire MGM cartoon library. The question of this poll is... Do you think the merge betwen the two should of...

    What happened to the end title?

    I just watched a non dubbed version of "A Hick, A Slick And A Chick" (I was rumaging through old recorded videos). The odd thing about this version of "AH,AS,AAC" was that the end title was messed up. It had Bugs coming out of a shield (used in cartoons like "Baseball Bugs") and the 1937-1938...

    Microsoft Publisher 2000 help

    I've been building a website over Microsoft Pubisher 2000, and I have a little trouble with it. I inserted some JPG pictures in it, which look fine while building it, but when I preview the website, they come out in GIFs and look like crap. Is there anyway to change this?

    Do you like Sniffles?

    Chuck Jones' character Sniffles, seems to be either hated or liked by fans, I was wondering, do you like him? Personally, I like his cartoons, "Sniffles Bells The Cat", "Hush My Mouse", "The Un-Bearable Bear", "Toy Trouble", "Lost And Foundling" and "Sniffles Takes A Trip" are all pretty...

    Headshot Help

    I've been making a website (through Microsoft Publisher) about headshot opening titles in WB cartoons. I haven't yet finished or uploaded it, but I need pictures of the headshots from certain cartoons, to do a guide of the different versions. I thought you people could help (I will credit you on...

    Hit or Miss: "The Jerky Turkey" (MGM)

    Here's another hit or miss, a 1945 cartoon directed by Tex Avery. I think it's a hit! The Jimmy Durante turkey and the Pilgrim were good characters and there are a lot of great gags. The "Eat at Joe's" bear, gunpowder beng poured down the pilgrim's pants, the half breed Indian, the town...

    Hit or Miss: "Who's Who At The Zoo"

    Here's another Hit or Miss poll for a 1942 Porky Pig cartoon directed by Norm McCabe. What do you think of this short? Personally, I think it's a miss. It's not at all funny and the gags are a little stupid. Where's the humour in a lion waiting for an ice cream truck? It's one of McCabe's...

    Question about Rod Scribner

    As everyone knows. Rod Scribner was an animator for both Robert Clampett and Robert McKimson. But was Rod Scribner always an animator for Robert McKimson during 1947-1949? I've never seen him credited in any cartoon around that time. Was he even there at the studio? Or why was he not...

    "Odor Of The Day"... Turner Owned?

    I was looking at www.nonstick.com and found this in the FAQ page. (This information is somewhat dated today, it must of been put up before 1996) I've always thought "Odor Of The Day" was owned just by Warner Bros. Is it true that Turner claimed to own it and why? "Odor Of The Day" was...

    Michael Lah Droopys

    What do you think of the six MGM Droopy cartoons directed by Michael Lah after Tex Avery left the studio (just as "One Droopy Knight", "Blackboard Jumble" and "Droopy Leprechaun")? From what I've heard, they aren't very popular among fans, and I was wondering what you think. Personally, I...

    Characters acting out of character

    Sometimes, in cartoons, a character would be taken out of character, mainly to the fit the story. How many examples can you think of this? The most obvious one is Daffy in the post 1964 shorts. Where Daffy acted like a completely heartless villian. I always felt that Sylvester acted out of...

    "A Mouse In The House", uncut?

    Has anyone ever seen the edited scene in this Tom and Jerry cartoon? (Tom and Butch look in an exploding oven and come out in blackface) I have never, ever seen this unedited on VHS, let alone on TV. :rolleyes: :( Also, if they have seen it unedited, does anyone have a screen cap of the scene?

    Hit or Miss: "The Rattled Rooster" (WB)

    These 'hit or miss' polls sound fun, I'll think I'll try one of my own. Anyway, personally I think "The Rattled Rooster" is not Art Davis' best cartoon due to the loose timing, the annoying worm and the weak ending, but there are some really funny moments like the rooster getting...

    Bad animation

    What classic cartoons do you think had very poor animation? I think the Rudy Larviaa and Alexy Lovy Daffy and Speedy cartoons, had some of the worst animation I've ever seen in a WB cartoon. Even explosions and dust clouds look badly drawn. The two Speedy and Sylvester cartoons, "Road To...

    "The Simpsons" shorts on the "Tracey Ullman Show"

    The original two minute sketches of "The Simpsons" that aired on the "Tracey Ullman Show" are rarely, if never, discussed here, so I thought I'd start this thread. What are your opinions on these short sketches? Personally, I think they are classics. They are funny and have a goofy sort of...

    In this cartoon, the razzing noises made by the quail were replaced with a whistle. Does the original sound exist?

    Your favourite Porky Pig title cards?

    From 1937-1943 there were a series of Porky Pig title cards in the opening credits on each Looney Tunes opening (Porky on a fence, Porky with a hat etc). So which one do you like the most. I like the Porky on a fence one the most. (which is used for this forum's logo) The Looney Tunes...

    Remakes

    How many remakes of cartoons are there? I can only think of the following. "Dough For The Do-Do" - "Porky In Wackyland" (WB) "Back Alley Op-Roar" - "Notes To You" (WB) "The Egg And Jerry" - "Hatch Up Your Troubles" (MGM) "Tick Tock Tuckered" - "Porky's Badtime Story" I definately know...

    Your favorite Bugs/Wile cartoon

    I voted for "Operation Rabbit", this one has very good gags in it and it's odd that Wile's second appearance was with Bugs Bunny. Second would be "To Hare Is Human". :bugs1: :coyote: I may be in the minority here, but I actually like "Rabbit's Feat". The way Bugs uses his ears is...

    "The Up-Standing Sitter"

    I watched this cartoon yesterday and was thinking about it. Some people reckon that this is one of the worst WB cartoons ever. I myself, don't really think much of it and that Daffy didn't get what he deserved, but they are some funny gags, like the rhyme Daffy sings and the "are you my mother?"...

    Question about the Bugs Bunny shield opening

    When did WB cartoons stop using the "Bugs Bunny on the WB shield" opening? I noticed it on "Hare Do" yesterday, funny, I've never noticed it before. (I didn't see for a long time until yesterday) Before that I always thought that "A Lad In His Lamp" was the last cartoon to use the Bugs shield...

    Special features on Golden Collection II

    Since, we must of discussed "What cartoons should go on to the next collection?" a million times before, I thought it would be interesting to see what extras should be on the next "Looney Tunes: The Golden Collection II" dvd. I would like to see the following shorts. "The Door" "A Hitch In...

    Your favourite De.Patie-Freleng character.

    Well, since there are going to be Pink Panther movie DVDs and collectible figures of the characters. What is your favourite DPF character? I voted for the Pink Panther. I like most of his cartoons, epesically the earlier ones directed by Friz Freleng and Hawley Pratt. I think the Panther's...

    Worst TV show that is based on a classic cartoon.

    I would have posted a poll. But there are probably too many shows that are based on a classic character(s)/cartoon(s)/cartoonist(s). In first place is definately "The Wacky World Of Tex Avery". The show is a terrible insult to Tex Avery. :mad: It is not funny, it is badly drawn and animated...

    The better later episodes of The Simpsons.

    I thought that this would be interesting. My choices are, "Triology Of Error": It's got a few problems, like it's high surrealism, but it's funny and it's interesting. "I Am Furious Yellow": Now this one is funny. It's only problems are the guest stars, and the way Bart get's his comic...

    The best George and Junior cartoon.

    Your favourite George and Junior cartoon? My favourite is "Red Hot Rangers". I laugh a lot at all those "no smoking" signs. My second favourite would be "Hound Hunters".

    Worst decade of animation

    I'd say the seventies. That decade seemed to destroy the entire point of what a cartoon was. By making it for kids and stuff. The early eighties weren't very good either, with horrible cartoons based on toys. Animation got better later though with Wallace and Gromit, Garfield, Snoopy...

    Best and worse Bill Lava scores

    What music scores done by Bill Lava (the WB cartoon musician who most people think was the worst) sound ok, or really awful. I'd say Chuck Jones' Roadrunner cartoons that he "composed" were quite good, but odd. They sound like some sort of horror movie music. "Suppressed Duck" and "Cats And...

    Ideas for cartoon's WB can put on their classic film DVDs.

    WB has put classic cartoons on their film DVD's "Robin Hood", "Yankee Doodle" and others. What other films should have cartoons on them? I've only thought of two so far, "Two Guy's From Texas" "Two Gopher's From Texas" (WB) "Homesteader Droopy" (MGM) "Bugs Bunny Rides Again" (WB) "Beep...

    Rate each season of "The Simpsons".

    I don't like it when people say "seasons 1 to 8 were excelent", because they are a lot of bad episodes made during that time period. So what do people think of each season of "The Simpsons". Here's mine. Season 1: A great season! The animation is odd but the characters are all in...
