Sneetches

[JdubsTheDestroyer]

@adamlore HAHA i love dr. seuss

[crypter27]

Why didn't the plain bellies have they're own parties & games?

[bcakapinky]

This was the first story in "Dr. Seuss on the Loose." It even came after "The Cat in the Hat" on that same videotape I watched with me and my brother when we were really little.

[LuigiTailsPrower]

Sylvester McMonkey McBean truly is the greatest businessman in the world.

[bcakapinky]

@LuigiTailsPrower Thank you.

[MichaelSar12IsBack]

I wish Depatie-Freling Enterprises had done Fox In Socks!

[Veetoria]

I love that Dr. Suess doesn't need to use real words.. : D

[mhbs2]

this cartoon was based off of the best children's book about racism

[AlexanderLewis15]

its sneeches



[TelevisionFTW1]

@AlexanderLewis15 I've corrected the title, but it's actually spelled "Sneetches". Anyway, thanks for reminding me!

[TheCarlitosbug]

@TelevisionFTW1 You forgot the Dr. Seuss on the Loose intro, TelevisionFTW1.

[plurp7]

fukin cat in the god damn hat! trips me out everytime!!

[jokiest1]

The star-bellied walking yellow bowling pins had bellies with stars. But the plain-bellied walking yellow bowling pins had none upon thars.

[groudon8]

We watched this to figure out whether or not Sylvester McMonkey McBean was a captain of industry or a robber baron. I think it's pretty obvious.

[MrMrsrodriguez08]

Sneetchers?? It's SNEETCHES! fail...

[tyro6743]

wtf boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[cartoonkingforeever]

@MultiRajuncajun you idiot didn't you learn anything from this? violence is a stupid way to change things and nothing ever changes for the right with violence

[tayloreh]

@cartoonkingforeever I would remind you calling someone an 'idiot' is pretty violent :). 'Be the change you want to see in others'

[cartoonkingforeever]

@tayloreh dude i don't where you got your dictionary from but last time i checked idiot is an insult to describe someone who is stupid not to threaten someone with violence

[tayloreh]

@cartoonkingforeever Words do as much as any physical acts of harm, if not more. Words create the motivation for everything. The way we phrase our thoughts within ourselves and phrase them to others make all the difference in how we perceive life. People can do the right thing out of selfishness, and then come across aggressive while doing it, and get nowhere. The star machine guy, even though he's a moneygrubber, he's actually the hero; he uses nonviolence to help them see their hypocrisy.

[Garrysmod101]

if theres one thing i rememeber about this cartoon was the way the guy says "thank yuuu" lol! :P ahh the good ol days

[rockleebroccoli01]

How'd they afford marshmallows if they spent all their money?

[alienmode]

these sneetches are some dumb motherfuckers... good at rhyming though

[Cierrakahana]

some how it reminds me of  schools...

[WumWip]

This would make an awesome 3d animated movie.

[fiddlefiend]

@WumWip I was thinking almost the same thing. Real actors playing every part in Sneetch costumes, but fixed up a bit with CG. Except Danny DeVito MUST play Sylvester McMonkey McBean! 8D

[WumWip]

@fiddlefiend

Or the same people who made Horton Hears A Who could make it.

rich v poor



[jenksmaster]

My history teacher in high school said this story was about communism and socialism....

[LadyDeirdre]

@jenksmaster Your history teacher was a bit confused, I think. The story is very obviously about excessive class consciousness and destructive fashion following.

[Sharangir]

@jenksmaster This is far from truth. It's about how the real world works. Capitalists playing the people against eachother for profit.

[CapitalistOverlord]

@Sharangir It sounds more like a criticism of the racist tendencies of Seuss's contemporaries.

But even that is looking too deeply into it. This is Dr. Seuss, for fuck's sake.

[Sharangir]

@CapitalistOverlord Well it's not per se racist, it happens between skin colour, gender or any visual difference or perhaps even people that own a pair of striped shorts. And then there's the capitalist that takes advantage of it and just plays it out and leaves with all of their money. And I don't think this is too far fetched because it's Dr. Seuss, because he has some really thought through stuff.

[Brumerican]

@jenksmaster Your teacher was probably referring to the Butter Battle Book, not the Sneetches.

[kataankoryu]

Are the plain bellies too stupid to make their own beach bonfires?

[2wingo]

@kataankoryu The star-bellies probably have a monopoly on the wood.

[josemercado08]

this bings back my childhood memories. :) I LOVE THIS DR. SEUSS CARTOON!

[ChyeahBabii]

i love these cartoons! :)

my little brother love them now too!

only problem is...i've got a little three year old saying "stupid" because of this one now lol

[ForbiddenDouchebag]

05:33 - My reaction to the posting

[charentirza]

best sneetches episode ever lol



[Nagneto]

Best anti-racism propaganda cartoon ever. :)

[snowboarddmonkey1]

@Nagneto its actually about social class and not changing yourself to fit in with a certain group and having pride in who you are.

[Nagneto]

@snowboarddmonkey1 : both are good morals.

[snowboarddmonkey1]

@Nagneto i agree. that's what dr.seuss was all about, no matter which book or movie you watch, he always adds a moral to help children learn something and be entertained. (:

[DakariKingMykan]

Ya know... I wonder what it's liek to actully go through those machines?

I'll bet if there was a Suess theme park... they'd have fun houses for them

[DJSoUnDBoyy12189]

@DakariKingMykan My friend....That concept would be a Wonderful Idea!!

[IWillBeHers]

@DakariKingMykan

There IS a Seuss theme park, sort of. It's the Seuss Landing "island" at Universal's Islands of Adventure. No Sneetch fun houses, though, but there are Sneetches along the lagoon and whatnot.

[DakariKingMykan]

8:15-8:28

Hey! I don't recognize those scenes

[TelevisionFTW1]

@DakariKingMykan Looks like this must be the Uncut version, then. I don't remember these scenes, either.

[TheBookWorm1718]

@TelevisionFTW1 I saw both the edited for Dr. Seuss on the Loose version and the whole version when it premiered on Cartoon Network back in '97, and I don't remember that either, granted that was about 14 years ago, but still...

[hemanshera777]

@DakariKingMykan why was that part cut out from this anyways?

[Kitsuneranger]

@DakariKingMykan You must;ve watched the butchered version of "Dr. Seuss on the Loose" that airs as part of ABC Family's "25 Days of Christmas"

[DAOW17]

...wow..3 bucks in those days was ALOT

[mysnsux]

.....And now they're all broke. XD
