[xcusemyrandomness]

this reminds me more of the nutcracker suite...

The makers of these were in disney at one point, the main clue being the clock out of its got me again appearing at the beginging.

Once again, Warners has beaten Disney to the punch, and by over 50 years.

I can't believe they got away with showing a girl's behind at the end! The Hays Code just came through then!

I used to watch this with my daughter on TV when she was 2 or 3. I always sung that song with the "boo boo boo boop" part. Now she's 24 and we can see it again! Thanks Jillem.

haha I love when he tries to close the book with Beast alive

and I really like the colors in this one

The second "Merrie Melodies" color cartoon produced (in Cinecolor, because Walt Disney controlled the exclusive rights to "three-strip" Technicolor for his cartoon shorts through the end of 1935), released in April 1934.

@fromthesidelines oh, no wonder the cartoon looks like its in red and grayish green.

[waynemcclain1975]

funny

[mankind89032]

It's funny how she loses both buttons in one scene and they are back the next.

[loudrgfan]

They don't make cartoons like this any more.

Wonder why?

[championf1]

@loudrgfan I don't understand why they don't make cartoons like this anymore either, but for this one at least, I love how the girl's pajama's act as a parachute

@championf1 A certain Bob Clampett innovated and made cartoons really silly.
