Disney's 1943 Reason and Emotion

[GlinkoPlayman]

Disney has fabulous animation scool worldwide but same time messed up big time

[TekoMuto]

john dopes shouldn't take acid before listening to the radio.....

[strikerk]

I know~ let's EAT! ROFL Fuck you Disney.

[sneeky510]

aww they like the rough stuff lmao!! x3

[SenorCatbutter]

3:51 bitch slap

[qhack]

This was obviously made back when Disney wasn't ruled by emotion... Can't say that today.

[kKkdchic]

at 1:45 . he doesn't look normal to me lol

[21h040349160]

This design of Hitler is pretty cool, I must say

[Aleksandr011]

Godwin's Law, 1943

[dagnytheartist]

I like this. I think Reason is the part of your brain judging based on mistakes you've made, where as Emotion only cares about what you want. That's why Reason wasn't born until the child faced the consequences from his mistakes.

[ArmandAmadeo]

Guys chill out, this is from the 40's, from a different time. Disney doesn't hate 'chubby' people. In fact, in the 1940s being 160 lbs woman was fashionable. It's just saying desire, as a general emotion, makes u forget common sense and go overboard sometimes. It's not racist because it doesn't make fun of any race. Emotions in general can be easily manipulated with fear as a key, that's a common political tactic. Also, IT'S JUST A CARTOON. Personally I liked it.

[Blake4014]

This is more accurate than we think. Good metaphor used.

[holysmack03]

I love Hitlers evil pointy teeth..

[fishluvrfejes]

i'm glad to know that all of my actions are controlled by two people who live in my head...

[mosddoomsday1]

I think that current news guy was on acid.

[Goodmintonescu]

Good taste, Ne Ghe ! ;-)

[eddystone333]

Disney obviously had no idea what an average male looked like. Lol.

It's too bad things aren't this simple in real life. A more realistic metaphor would have had Reason become sick or misguided. Fascism doesn't succeed just because people listen only to their emotions.

[sarahsandiego2]

Emotion get's you slapped and fat..

[cookiemonsteruchiha0]

I find this video discriminating. Its racist, and it makes fun of fat people.

[abracadaverous]

NO EMOTIONS, EVER! Emotions make you fat. Disney said so.

[User274073]

I wanna club sandwich with PO-TAY-TO SAUCE!

[thimization]

Is it bad when there are weapons in your brain?

[BETMARKonTube]

Il bello è che alla fine usa la stessa identica strategia di Hitler, per far fare agli americani quello che vuole.

Rabbia, Paura, Orgoglio... Patetico...

Bel cartone, comunque.

[LeeAnnOfAlderaan]

Hitler looked like a vampire

[LuneFromage]

Haha, Plato's Republic in cartoon form... but kind of a bit more creepy.

[shagoosty]

Pause at 6:28

WTF?!

[GermanConquistador08]

@shagoosty HERP DEP!

[shagoosty]

Isn't slapping him an emotional response?

[farouqalhusseini]

I didn't see Hitler coming. It was so sudden...

"Go ahead, let emotion win.... It's good... FOR HITLER!"

[CybershotCollections]

3:50 BITCH SLAP!!

[jimbojamesIV]

How can anyone watch this video all the way through and deny that either the Nazis won WWII or we somehow became Nazis along the way?

[Nertrender]

so when women slap men it is a completely emotionless, calculated response?

[PrimeConsciousness]

At the end of the video they should show reason dropping a nuclear bomb on Hiroshima while flying into the sunset.

[SenorCatbutter]

@PrimeConsciousness reason: to break a determined foe.

[PrimeConsciousness]

@SenorCatbutter Real reason: To set an example and send a message to America's worthy foe called the Soviet Union. The Japanese empire was entirely broken and surrounded when those bombs were dropped. A peaceful detonation would have ended the war, but the carnage and aftermath was the true goal. After those bastards exploded, Josif Stalin wouldn't dare open fire on his lingering Yankee comrades.

[cuetogomez]

is it me or emotion´s voice is like Danny De Vito´s?

[mikisct]

How come the Redheads are always the barbaric ,though most of the red heads in my family are over achievers hmm, does that mean that they are more emotionally driven & that's why they are more adventurous? who knows

[jimbojamesIV]

@mikisct Interesting comment. I'm sure you must be aware that red is the color of blood, and perhaps you're also aware of redness in ancient societies were the Greek Typhon had red hair and so did Esau and so did several others, aha, Rhadamanthus, also had hair.

It's definitely an ancient belief which ever way to take it.

[jimbojamesIV]

@jimbojamesIV Typhon might not have had red hair, but there are definitely several others.

[meowkie]

"Remember, we're on a diet, please--"

SMACK!!!!

Happens to me every damn time :c

[gingergiggles]

This is hilarious!!! :D

[BadIdeaBearCub]

Such a delightful story ruined by propaganda. but I saw it later on The Wonderful World Of Disney retooled as a lesson on society or something, without the Nazi allusions.

[lilstalion10]

Theamericanjedi10 how is this racist?

[mariethebest09]

Oh, old-school Disney animation. I wonder what Walt would say if he knew that future generations would watch these films on YouTube and laugh at how outdated they are.

[GuillerMak37]

@mariethebest09 Yeah...that would be interesting.

[MRBLONDE13XD]

so keeping reason back then meant that girls shouldn't eat.

[KBAFourthtime]

I believe, during the Nazi scene, where Reason is being weakened, Emotion is only trying to be an Emotion that loves his country, his freedom, and his life.

[BlackValleyRequiem]

Slapping people who piss you off is reasonable? Seems pretty emotional to me

[B0LESLAW]

"an average normal male" except for his face.

[BrianCardova]

Sweet deal

[gamerunknown]

6:32

7:24

[kywildhorse]

omg I have been looking for this video for AGES!

[hols2000]

Ow man, this is propaganda as well. You don't attack to gain freedom, you defend the liberty. Many wars intend to spread freedom and democracy, the sad truth is that the only thing they spread is  pain, misery and restriction of many liberties. So don't give me no crap about freedom ;) Being free is being free to choose and I would never choose to go to war nor would I choose to be attacked by a bunch of morons flying a plane. Would you?

[andrielisilien]

And nowadays we are trying to kill emotion by removing the arts from our public schools.

[WhyYouStealMyName]

WOW that is good propoganda!

[TheNatkidd]

Yeah. People must have been in so much fear in that time. They have nothing else to do but to fight for our country. America.

[andrielisilien]

The lady's emotion vs. reason made me laugh. hahaha I love the alarms going off with the weight gain... Should happen more often LOL

[charpsteve36]

this was really inspiring until I remembered that this war ended seven decades ago.

[MissBillieDove]

Funny how the man cares about stuff like war and the woman's only struggle is whether she should eat of keep her figure.

[DenoNomer]

Very interesting....

[MrESPIO1978]

god bless AMERICA!!! thanks for winner the ww2 because the hate and death dont cover the wordl

[KBAFourthtime]

Who said, "Well, she's not bad," about that lady? Reason or the Narrator?

[racerx2481]

that's fine... for HITLER!

[ChromeMaquilover22]

These older Disney propaganda films are fascinating. lol so men apparently have no emotion :P just reason folks that's right.

I can't imagine what sort of mind set they're trying to get us into nowadays XD

[andrewjfletcher]

Godwin's Law at 5:26

[knoxjeff]

2 Nazis disliked it the other team's propaganda.

[TheLisagrey]

I never realized Hitler had fangs and talons. I'm sure that's completely accurate and not, say, playing on fear to gain the viewer's sympathy.

[RaymondoPerson]

@TheLisagrey seems more like a humorous caricature than an attempt at making him scary, and they never really said that emotion should be completely kicked out.

not saying this isn't outdated in many ways (the super-sexist stuff for instance) but given its time it's still pretty damn well made.

[bigmankralc]

Disney hates chubbies :P

[ztslovebird]

@bigmankralc So does every other major entertainment company.

[Zareste]

"reason as doing what you hate, for us"

[KBAFourthtime]

"Behold, the Nazi..."

Did he say what I thought? "Superman"?

[Irrenmann]

AWW, THEY LIKE THE ROUGH STUFF!! YOU'RE NOT GONNA PASS *THAT* UP!

if we listen to unchecked emotion, we're handing the planet to the Nazis...and beyond that is the real danger that women might get FAT!!!!!

[DBuilder]

And so Junior grows up into the GMan from Half-Life...I mean an average normal male.

[17secret]

Genius!

[Launchpad05]

Fear, Sympathy, Pride, Hate = CBS, NBC, ABC, The CW, The Democratic Party, MTV, Disney Channel, E! Entertainment,

[mrgears]

"Reason and Emotion"  Sort of a layman's term for "The Cortex and the Limbic System"

[khaals]

The world economy is about to go down the tubes because the the chief of the International Monetary Fund felt the impulse to rape a hotel chambermaid. Reason and emotion indeed...

PS Does anyone think Mr & Miss Emotion resemble Fred and Wilma Flintstone?

[stinkynikki1]

1:50 That man kinda reminds me of woody from toy story.

don't ya think?

[Jon12213]

Hewl naw...Emotion slapped her in the face! LMAO

[Dodec84]

In the 21st century, we wouldn't call women that slap men in the face reasonable, when the only thing they did was asking a question ...

[MarkP0rter]

i like the ending: with emotion by the side. so don't listen to emotion if you want to nuke japan...

[MarkP0rter]

Emotion is my kinda girl

[KBAFourthtime]

*Emotion bawls*

REASON: Don't cry. He is a big liar.

EMOTION: Don't call Mein Führer a liar! The whole world is against our peace-loving Führer!

[KBAFourthtime]

Are Reason and Emotion actually friends or enemies?

[SensuWaKawata]

@KBAFourthtime They're frienemies.

[KBAFourthtime]

@SensuWaKawata What you're saying means they're both.

[KBAFourthtime]

After saying, "You shouldn't have slapped him; he was cute," did the Female Emotion just ask her, "Do you want to be an old maid?" If so, what is she talking about?

[MWolfL]

You know a cartoon is powerful when it still affects you in the future. This one is a good example considering WWII has been over for 60-70 years and yet it affected me as if I had just seen it in theaters during the 1940s.

[KBAFourthtime]

Who did all those voices, by the way?

[bubbles1x]

anyone notice the sexism and racism in this short??

[pinocchiofan]

The crying audio is from Pinocchio.

[whitelion44]

cool cartoon. I remember seeing this as A kid. and a bit of trivia, the male Emotion is a charicature of the animator,Ward Kimble

[JUNIORWHOPPER]

You could convert this into any number of things in the 21st Century. This is not just a World War II cartoon.

[SorokChyetirye]

Fear, sympathy, pride, hate = Dawkins.

[pucpimp]

that lady turning into a skeleton scared the living shit out of me when i was a kid

[jkgatling]

A friend of a friend of mine who was at Pearl Harbor, and he said OOHH EEI HOOO!

[guillermogg]

This animation is ideal to study the role of Reason and Emotions in the development of thinking. If interested in learning more I strongly recommend reading the book: "An Introduction to Objectivist Epistemology" by Ayn Rand which explains also tremendously good the development of thinking and of rational selfishness.

[applesweeter]

Is this still revelent to daily's psychology?

[imdb88]

Thumbs up if you think this idea should be made into a feature length film

[HypercatZ]

Fear, simpathy, pride, hate = Religion

Fear = The Hell.

Simpathy = Your god loves you.

Pride = You are the favourite son of your god.

Hate = Everyone who doesn't respect your god must be punished or eliminated.

[adsweaty]

@HypercatZ wow an athiest who preaches his beliefs (ive never heard or read that before)

it annoys you when we do it to you so why bother doing it to us?

[pmunkyandpals11]

@HypercatZ This isn't applicable for every religion. Don't be so quick to judge.

[rebelbanjo]

@HypercatZ

Fear,sympathy, pride, hate = athiests/liberals

Fear = Fox news/conservatives/ religion can only harm

Sympathy= I must educate the world/I am a minority and abused/ The world owes me

Pride= I am right/ Obama is God/ We must submit to socialism

Hate = Everone who isn't politically correct must be silenced or eliminated/ Fox News is bad/ Rush Limbaugh is evil/ Church who help are driven only by selfish reasons

See? Anyone can do it.

[battybuddy]

You know, even if you were to ignore the meat of the cartoon (being the whole Hitler deal) this cartoon is still pretty damn phylosophical and useful.

[ThomasRowsell]

double think at its best

[briecinc]

This is too applicable; it's scary.

[quiktymevideo]

I love how they make Emotion into a caveman and Reason into university professor.

[Nanchee76]

3:52 lmfao!!

[ROy1849]

did it say discriminate?????? racism????

[Knoss]

@ROy1849 discriminate means to choose. In this case to make choices which lead to winning the war. Racial discriminaiton means to make choices based on race whcih is not the intended messagage of this cartoon.

[ROy1849]

@Knoss im saying there is none. Some person said the video was racist

[melco20]

Fear, simpathy, pride, hate = "FOX NEWS"

[JasperDale]

@melco20, i really like FOX NEWS! you actually learn what is going on in the world. you probably don't watch Fox News so you are still uninformed about how liberal the media truly is.

thankfully, we have the internet and networks like Fox which will give a fair and balanced view of what is happening on the planet.

and, hopefully, more and more people will watch Fox News and our abortion loving president will be voted out of office in two years. thanks to Fox, we are winning over more people

[GAvillain]

@JasperDale Amen to that.

[KiCreativeStudio]

@melco20 Fear, simpathy, pride, hate = USA News Media. All of it.

Take it from someone living in the crisis in Japan watching how "both sides" have been reporting the news.

[Hyman74Roth]

@melco20 Yes sir, fits like a glove.

[77Tswswt]

@melco20 true but not just Fox News, ALL of Mainstram Media is equally guilty in the spreading of fear.

[apk1215]

They weren't able to turn off the propaganda, though,as people are in a country with a free media,etc..

[BrianCardova]

@melco20 = 90% of the media

[mongproductions1]

I'll never know if it was because I can't control my laughter on how silly Hitler looks or it was just how stupid, childish nonsense, and demonic Hitler made the Germans believe. But I just laughed my ASS off during 5:29-6:58!!!

[AlanJaamal]

I like this short even though reason and emotion aren't that black and white.

But it's nice to see the mind frame of people back then.

[ztslovebird]

THIS is why we've been losing the wars after WWII; the federal government won't let us make propaganda cartoons about supporting the war effort or educating the masses about why we're going to war in the first place!

[mongproductions1]

I never found out what was purpose of this until they mentioned Hitler.

[TheYellowScreen]

A propaganda film about how the Nazis are feeding their people a bunch of propaganda. XD

[rejectzombie]

@TheYellowScreen during WWII disney had a contract with the government to make these cartoons and there animators would not get drafted.

[rejectzombie]

Respond to this video...  i like hitlers hair !

[powetcrusher]

you can't see it but i'm saluting

[greyreynyn]

4:30 the acid kicks in

[htruman]

What's scary is sceens with hitler, is almost the same thing glenn beck is doing.

[mongproductions1]

Everything about the video said is true...in order for others to believe Hitler, fear, sympathy, pride, and hate were the only tools he needed for the Germans to follow his cause. You should think about the intentions people have before you decide.

[Vjn3]

average meaning most males have smaller noses than normal. 6:40 , madness, THIS IS SPARTA

[Vjn3]

average meaning most males have smaller noses than normal

[supersonicwind1]

hey.... when the reason of the nazi said: this is madness like on sparta: this is madness!!! madness? THIS IS SPARTAAA!!

[laurenloves123]

This was great. it's so funny to see these sorts of propaganda. makes you think.

[giselaverzola2006]

funny entertaining...and learning...

very nice animation

5*****

[TheMarlakay]

glad you enjoyed the video. I enjoy your channel as well. Marla
