Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad

[Garlgraxx]

Don't you think this looks kinda Disney?

[doomguy10011]

@CrazyToonWorld Thank you for bringing back great memories from my childhood :)

[thefanfan427]

Wow, you just don't see that kinda violence on cartoons anymore, it makes me nostalgic for my childhood.

[weluvb5]

"Popeye you ain't gon do nothing" -Baby Boy, I just had to come look for this cartoon after I heard it in the film lol

[SidJustice1]

Bravo!! Bravo!! What a special cartoon this is! Thanks!!

[FaroZ06]

I have a remastered version. "RAAAAAAAAAAAAH! Sindbad the sailor!"

[nigen]

some one tell me why there hasn't been a popeye the sailor man platformer/video game

[CrazyToonWorld]

@nigen Nobody can tell you that, because there actually has been a Popeye arcade machine / NES / C64 / whatever else game. ;)

[johnross456]

@CrazyToonWorld Yep, I used to play it as a child. A bit trippy and scary for a kid, watching Bruno try to reach u with his huge arm

[Kelski1998]

@nigen

Years ago on Intellivision and poossiby Atari most definetly Intellivision though because I had the game there was a Popeye game because Bluto chased you and Olive Oyl helped Popeye defeat him!!!

[jbelloso69]

But bring me the woman!

[corjonbett]

If anyone dasses ta risk me fisks!

[corjonbett]

Sindbad knocks some interesting stuff out of Popeye... A boat hook, a steering wheel, and... AN ANCHOR?! Also...

"Do ya give up?" :D

[TayoEXE]

I haven't seen this in a long time. I watched this episode all the time as a kid, that and Alibaba.

[sglasspool]

When I was a kid, I never understood what that thing (the meat grinder) Wimpy was carrying was.

[TheHandsomeRockLee]

11:27 Where'd he get the gravy? 0_o

[TrendyPencil]

We used to have a video tape of some old Popeye cartoons and watched them all the time. I totally remember this movie and I could never forget the song.

[TheSapphireEmpress96]

Wimpy is the worst traveling companion EVER.

[ronin6401]

ever notice how in these long cartoons popeye's always fighting an arabic villain?

[TheSapphireEmpress96]

@ronin6401 I think TCM showed this in their "Arab Images in Hollywood" special this July.

[jackdiesal666]

Fat, the 1947's man ripped

[abdullah007ali]

Lolz hahaha

[blazikenking]

Why does this not have more views?

[JamesPriceJohnson]

lmfao at 7:47 and at 9:30 "how did you get in here?!"

[buslady]

nothing beats REAL animation...

[LoveoneAn]

I have only seen a few Japanese anime movies surpass the sheer quality of animation before the shitty ass Flinstones came along and gimped cartoons to the Stone Age.

[LoveoneAn]

@MichaelHansenFUN How old are you? This short was aired in 1936.

[DannySants]

Because of this show, I used to eat spinach everyday.

[SakuraxCheat56]

personally, it would be better if it were just in a BIT more better of a quality

[JohanKarel]

5 people are absolutely dumb!!

[tattomichael]

the best moments are right after he has eaten the spinach, followed by the catchy melody and a close-up of his biceps .. always some powerful stuff, a tank, mount everest or a giant engine .. ahhh <3

[MichaelHansenFUN]

this is how it was in the late 70's early 80's

wow

[Freethinker12341]

oh man, cartoons were violent back then lol

[strafer]

The animation was so good back then.

[jdrazor951]

MMMMMMMMM Lunchin

[dreadway3]

It's a 3-way tie, CTW. If we had to loose all but 3 of 'em, those 3 are the ones I'd pick to retain.

[Fozzy4175]

This is the best Popeye cartoon. Period.

[friktastic5]

15:56 gutter trash

[fergus247]

spinage is not even that healthy. much much better foods to eat than that

[Rubberman202]

When was this made? 1936? This looks pretty damn impressive for a cartoon made back then!

[JohnMeteor]

@Rubberman202

Especially so considering Sindbad "lived" maybe 1000 or 1100 years ago. And mix in Popeye and "Stars and Stripes Forever" -- and other anachronisms like SPINACH IN A CAN! -- Wow - History's timeline milkshake.

Whatever happened to good ol' cartoons where badguys got punched out and beaten into goo? (Remember how Popeye "cooked" Sindbad's "goose"?) Priceless! ... These days we have to watch "My Little Pony" and get brainwashed into learning "how we all can get along"...

[moniquead1]

@Rubberman202

this came out November 27, 1936

[moniquead1]

@Rubberman202

this came out in November 27, 1936

[KnowThyself7]

@moniquead1 That's 35 years before my birth. November 27, 1971.

[noend4]

I'm Popeye the sailor man ahgegegegege toot. I'm popeye the sailor man. I'm strong to the finish cause I eat me spinach. I'm Popeye the sailor man.

[ininja32]

Popeye is the greatest, I've seen his cartoons when I was young.

[FrostbittenSamurai]

The funniest thing ever is watching Wimpy follow a live duck with a meat grinder.

[Jprime777]

I remember seeing this at school when I was a kid. They had this and some Felix the cat cartoons, and some others that my memory are too foggy to even remember

[jreed33729]

40  theives takes it all best popeye episode ever. pops had me eatin spinage he's good, cause at age 5 spinage was not on my top ten. hell it wont ony top 3

[CrazyToonWorld]

@jreed33729 anyone here with spinage on the top ten??? :-)

[TonyDuMont]

@CrazyToonWorld It's actually Spinach.

[Usersunited]

@jreed33729 tippy toe tippy toe tippy toe.

[johnross456]

I haven't seen this since I was 5, 22 years ago. It's amazing how I remebered 90% of it. I must have watched it 10 times when I was little.

[CrazyToonWorld]

@johnross456 Now you can watch it another 10 times :-)

[monsetrbou]

@johnross456 same here

[godsangelfella]

@johnross456 me too im 27 seen this like 20 times when i was 5 yrs old

[kotaro07]

Ok show of hands who was singing along with Sinbad in the beginning? 

[CrazyToonWorld]

Ok, so let's discuss your favorite Popeye Color Special. Is it...

A) Popeye The Sailor Meets Ali Baba's Forty Thieves

B) Aladdin and His Wonderful Lamp

C) Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad

Let me know what you think.

[arsetothem]

@CrazyToonWorld nice... actually its all of the above. i HAD the 3 original cartoons in TAPE. buts its gone now.

[Freethinker12341]

@CrazyToonWorld i like this one personally

[Gogorikiisthebest]

@CrazyToonWorld It's not C! It's A & B!

[TeamRocket2010]

@CrazyToonWorld How about D) All of the Above.

[MichaelHansenFUN]

@CrazyToonWorld all 3 of those were turned into cheats

[archona54]

@CrazyToonWorld - All 3. These were the pinnacle of the Popeye Cartoons.

[nigen]

@CrazyToonWorld

A! A! A! A! ^.^

[MWolfL]

My favorite one of the three Popeye specials was the Aladdin one, because that had a breaking-the-fourth-wall gag and because it had more romance with Popeye and Olive. Not to mention that the end gag was funny too. These other two are excellent as well of course.

The breaking-the-fourth-wall gag I'm referring to is when Popeye, as Aladdin, mutters "I've never made love in Technicolor before." Brilliant, especially since you don't often see other characters making *that* sort of reference! XD

[kush997]

sinbad the terrorist

[RJRanke]

This was one of the best,if not THE best Fleischer Popeye cartoon.The songs are great-and this is one of the few times Popeye sang his entire theme song.The best thing about Fleischer Popeye cartoons is that they capture the true spirit of Popeye as a roughneck sailor-and they show that he can do some pretty amazing things prior to his spinach feed.

Interesting that all the Fleischer color two-reel Popeyes are drawn from Arabian Nights tales.Besides Sinbad,there were Ali Baba and Alladin.

[The01kic]

Okay which was the one where he fights MUSLIM looking people? and he uses a CAMEL and the bad dude looks like a gaurd from ALADDIN

[jpenn311]

@The01kic Ali Baba's 40 theives is the episode!

[FaroZ06]

1:21 the song starts :)

I even extracted it any put it on my own channel since the song is so epic :D

[ryantcone]

I Remember being like 7 years old watching this 2-3 times a day and forgot about it until like 2 days ago, awesome.

[DrunkeytheClown44]

@ryantcone same.

I had this one and the 40 Thieves one as well.

[DrakyGordon]

i thought sinbad was supposed to be a hero...lol...

[iamthemyst]

anyone else watch this a billion times as a kid then forget about it then as an adult see it and realize you can sing along perfectly? SIN BAAD THE SAILOOORRR

[mwoj88]

LOL 4:10

[veggietalesfan65]

This is my favorite Popeye cartoon :)

[RoxasRox1042]

I can't see anything cuz of the bloomin' advertisements! Youtube should ban advertisements instead of videos.

[JRock005]

Best line.

I'm afraid of nobody under the sun

All I say is BOO and my enemies run

[naten896]

Man, popeye ruined sinbad's flow. He was going hard.... :P

[DrBlowhole1000]

come forth to sleep, my baby kid

my pinches and crib, my baby kid

if you don't sleep, my baby kid

i close for you your two eyes like this

[MightyNeonFraa]

Wow, I remember watching this when I was a kid. Now that I'm grown up I can appreciate just how great the animation is. The scene with the roc circling the ship is stellar. Just look at how the shadow moves with it and the "camera" rotates. And consider this was done BY HAND. There are shows animated fully with computers nowadays that don't hold a candle to this quality.

[Javer80]

11:50 - Okay. Parenting is awesome.

[Ander0072originalv2]

I always remembered the Sinbad theme from this.

[1PhatL]

11:24 who's ready for christmas turkey?

[CarlosJoseMunez88]

@1PhatL I sure am! YUM...

[1PhatL]

Ow! wherz mie Olyves Oyl. Big pun fo'huh chef boy-r-dee.

[CarlosJoseMunez88]

08:51 LOL!!

14:10 - 14:23 LOL!

14:35 - 14:38 LMAO!!

Popeye rules!

[rabsmiff]

off-color dupe negative [probably Videotape source] but still great animation.

[LightMare7]

Give it to him Popeye! the twister punch! :D

[DreadlockDrummer]

LOVED THIS WHEN I WAS A KID!!!!!!!!!!

[9MrLucky]

ahaha, exactly! always loved!

[darkvoyd121]

my favorite cartoon

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

you need to see this digitally remastered!!!

where is the museum one (you has to learn about them)

[travismw2boy1]

@TEMPmichaelhansen the episode where he takes his nephews to the meuseum

[corjonbett]

@TEMPmichaelhansen Big Bad Sindbad?

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

where is the museum?

[dualqual]

A documentary was done on cartoons of this time frame. The documentary showed this cartoon and how the animaters done the background scene. The Background was a continuous rotating cell that they taped without Popeye. He was later drawn in to make it like 2 D.

[HomeoftheGoodGuys]

There is also a restored print of "Popeye Meets Sinbad the Sailor" complete with the original Paramount logo intact. This one was used in many of the Flesicher's "Color Classics" series including this one.

[KierrokCyclone]

I've always loved it when Popeye would mutter things to himself outloud lol "Ooh kinda spooking in here."

[whitesox901]

@KierrokCyclone

Agreed

[greytheangel]

7:47 ... is he singing scat man?

[springerjkreb]

I wonder what would happen if Popeye met Bugs Bunny?

[Kimcee4younme]

It's amazing what they've done with the background; How they hell did they give it such dimension? I don't know what they did. It's obviously not rendered, but it's clear they didn't animate it in the conventional sense.

[117ty]

@Kimcee4younme

Look up "Ub Iwerks". He did it.

[Kimcee4younme]

@117ty I'm... not too sure about that.

[iCliMbTreEs23]

I am sixteen years old and this is what I consider to be the best thing ever.

[MrOiManDudeGuy]

wow for being a thousand years old this cartoon has some bad-ass action XD

[stripperella1sthubb]

This is better than that fruity remastered version.

[Teckniphobia]

Some of the fight choreography in this show is way, way ahead of it's time. Really great, imaginative stuff.

[darkfreetuga]

this is the time they did good cartoons, now they are all very bad and without funny

[MrExitOnly]

Popeye = greatest cartoon ever! lol

Thumbs up and favorite!

[ceredigio]

The AAP logo was plastered over the Paramount logo when the Popeye cartoons were first shown on TV in the 50s because at the time Paramount didn't want to be associated with television. When I saw them as a kid, I thought for many years that AAP actually made the cartoons! So confusing!

[HomeoftheGoodGuys]

@ceredigio This was at the time when Desilu became Paramount Television by 1968 after it was bought out.

[croscream]

@ceredigio

You think you where confused: In Dutch aap is the word for monkey, so i thought they where called monkey cartoons.
