Scrap Happy Daffy (Restored)

[larrybndc]

"Gosh! A dream! It was all a dream!"

First time I saw that last scene I just HOWLED!

The old USA Network weekend show "Night Flight" used to show these old clips along with stuff like Georges Melies (sp) "A Trip To the Moon" set to I think it may have been Pink Floyd.

[marioroxmysox]

I actually saw this as a kid, but in color. It's been a long time.

[rjflesher]

2:04 Hitler was indeed a horse's ass. Down with Nazism!

[roseprincess519]

A Nazi goat? I would have gone with a donkey;)

[CaseyCampbell13]

yup, cuz we americans are totally bullet proof. CUZ WE'RE AWESOME LIKE THAT!!!!!!

[fromthesidelines]

Carl Stalling strikes up "This Is Worth Fighting For" under the opening titles.

[fromthesidelines]

Oriignally released in August 1943, at the height of patriotic fervor during World War II. Scrap metal (as well as used rubber and cooking fats) was VERY much in demand for recycling- to be used in making weapons and other essential materials for our armed forces oversseas- and this dramatized how much the government was counting on "the home front" to keep that metal coming. Even in a cartoon context, the war was serious business. Sam Goldwyn originated the phrase, "Include me out".

[AntiVenom36]

The clip when Daffy becomes Super American fighting against the Nazi ship was in the opening of the Futurama episode, Deep South.

[RileyRichardz]

@AntiVenom36 Thats right! I remember that!

[AntiVenom36]

@RileyRichardz They been using clips of old retro cartoons that were made before and during World War II for intros for every episodes of Futurama, but I think they may stopped doing that during the revival on Comedy Central.

[Zizumia1]

Lol, stupid parents today change cartoons to be "better suited to development", even though kids don't even enjoy shit that is on today

[mikemcgee]

contact your legislator to out law political correct censorship that is directed against cartoon classics and live action classics

[samacal]

Beautiful restoration job. And classic propaganda/entertainment to boot.

[davemiller75149]

So hitler was a carpet muncher?

[Viper6454]

These were the best cartoons ever made cause they didn't have the overly unstable emotional idiots that are alive now a days thanks to the jap crap morons and their smut.

[electorg]

OH NOO IT'S A NAZI GOAT MY ONE WEAKNESS

[SteveCarras]

THis is a shapr contrast to "Draftee Daffy", directed by Bob Clampett ironically..

[jbltecnicspro]

You all know that these cartoons were watched by the whole family right? Kind of like Disney movies - there are elements that children would love, and there are elements that adults would understand and love - like the Hitler part. Either way, I don't think these cartoons would be censored today - just shown later at night, probably.

[AshburnStadium]

What a way to call Schicklgruber (Hitler) a horse's ass!

[daffyduckandegghead]

One of the greatest Daffy Duck and Frank Tashlin cartoons of all time.

[byw613]

At 1:50 I thought Daffy said "Metal Shit", but I know that he really said "Metal snip".

Anyway I love this cartoon and I wish stuff like this was being produced today!!

[grizabella626]

Who knew Hitler was a rug eater... *giggle*

[jdklaffke14]

1:52 :D

[Sacredfire059]

This tin termite is a nat-zee!

[TheTravisChannel]

Hitler eats carpet.........

[kudjo24]

next time you dream, include us out!

[steveasat2]

Bathing suits? Were those made from lead or rubber? Either way, WTF?

[sonrouge]

Why did WWII, the largest conflict in human history, only take six years to end?

Because the good guys were focused on actually winning, not sucking up to the very people they were fighting (like we do nowadays).

[VTwinty]

Ok, that is just cold with the Indians, making them the enemy on this cartoon. :(

[Sacredfire059]

@VTwinty The Indians? How do you confuse Nazis with Indians?

[Dipstikk]

Daffy gets the courage to defeat genocidal maniacs by his genocidal ancestors.

[stigler30]

Why is this in black and white? I thought all cartoons of the time were in color.

[PalvoChekov]

@stigler30 well, they were still getting used to the idea. Color was expensive for both live action movies and animated shorts such as these.

[6891man]

Hitler really did chew on the carpet. He went into a tirade when Yugoslavia joined the Allies and chewed on the carpet in his office.

[GhettoKarter1992]

Hitler's even funnier when Tashlin made it!

[KuroNoKiri]

wth Hitler? XD

[Shilivan]

Looney Tunes always did a wonderful job of entertaining. And they did a masterful job of raising troop morale during the war. Way better than the toy commercials that pass for entertainment these days. My kids even like the old Looney Tunes better than the stuff they have out now. Goes to show just how good they were and still are.

[Ryoku75]

@Shilivan Goes to show you don't have to make a cartoon for kids in order for them to like it.

[Welshman2008]

funny rotflmasof

fantastic quality

[Copper20]

Yep, way better than my DVD version of this cartoon.

[clarkstuff]

@Copper20 What DVD do you have that has this short? I think the perfect print of this cartoon came from Looney Toons Golden Collection Volume 5

[Copper20]

@clarkstuff

One of those DigiView DVDs...

[femoman]

LOL, just think how much 4Kids would censor this!

[clarkstuff]

@femoman they wouldnt even show it

[cybertronization]

@femoman Most of the old *Looney Tunes* cartoons ended up being censored in the later years, like in the Bugs Bunny/Elmer Fudd cartoon where they lampoon black people at the end.

[YouToons100]

@cybertronization you mean "Fresh Hare" (1942)?

[cybertronization]

@YouToons100 Yes, I mean exactly that.

[Catsarethebestever11]

@femoman what would they do with the part about the bathing suit?

[F1315NJ]

@femoman Fuck 'em

[Gundamknight100]

@femoman god forbid them ever getting their mitts on this gem.

[RobochaoXX]

Daffy is such a goofball

[22amp]

HAHA I LOVE THESE THINGS HAHA
