Oswald Rabbit - A Day at the Zoo

[Jocomjg64]

That's ONE abusive zookeeper...

[saubea]

Incredible brutality

[miscgal123]

4:42 sonic's early days

[RemusLupo]

this is like the struggle between disney and universal for oswald...the caged animals are disney

[Keilanify]

Pause at 0:44

[Recedebo]

ever wondered why the main characters are animals but even though the other animals are in cages?

[TheBlobfish9]

well u imagine that

[TheBlobfish9]

0.37 jumping mickeys

[makemesmile857]

hhh thumbs up if u find the 5.11 move is funny

[islalader]

I like how oswald comes back in epic mikey

[2211bunny]

thay shoud put oswald on disney chanel aging hes so flpon cool

[thewalruswaspawl]

Was this after Disney lost the rights?

[kmsquaredLLDL]

The voice acting was added in 2006 when Oswald went back on tv.

Personally I think it kinda kills the carton. And I normally don't like silent films. But I like oswalds.

[Dayachi0]

um y is this guy a zookeeper?

[TheSpazSquad101]

Oh Oswald,,, what has Universal done to you?

[TheCrisscross4]

how come sometimes Oswald's a kid in the cartoons?

[kylethehedgehog101]

@TheCrisscross4 He's never a kid, he's just drawn differently...

[cimoirine]

hey! is that mortimer? 

[BeiberBeliverForLife]

The kangaroo is gay :p

[gentlerat]

I find it amusing that our copywright laws are now based on Mikey Mouse. If they were based on Oswald, they'd be a lot more annoying.

[HighPrinceGasket]

We want Oswald! We want Oswald!

[UberMan5000]

Why is Oswald a three year old child in this cartoon? He should have whipped out a gun, like he used to do.

[vESTINMIXIFY]

Why doesn't the animal at 1:38 escapes? XD

[KGofeny831]

universal made oswald look so crappy!

[Proton178]

nice



[13midnightglory]

no animals were harmed while making this film. PETA approved...who am i kidding

[iniguezawsome]

i like the original oswald

[TruthTeller365]

Wow, these must be when only universal had him and not disney. Well i see what happened, this isn't like oswald at all, there is voice acting, and he looks so different! I'm sorry about what they did to you oswald

[Nodog438]

I had this on my Woody Woodpecker VHS.

[illniz82]

i probaly would love oswald hahaha yah i would wich they broght him back

[IsabelAnala]

ADORABLE. JUST......ADORABLE.

[IsabelAnala]

ADORABLE. JUST......ADORABLE.

[ALittleOutThere05]

5:30

And THATS how Cannons were invented.

[GoodPictures98]

anyone notice all of the mickey mouses on the water works at 0:31 ?

[FlykydFly]

@GoodPictures98 yea only they're naked.

[Tankcheatscp]

@GoodPictures98

Those are just mice.

[4evrTaylorSwiftfan]

How come they can talk now?????

[YayyayCP]

F U universal pictures Disney should own Oswald

[cyberdragonessmaster]

@YayyayCP they do now just hope they make more cartoons with him maybe do stuff with him and mickey learning what it like to have a bother 

[Thenumber1yoshi]

I have to say, though Disney's Oswald is superior to the Walter Lantz one I still do enjoy watching Lantz's Oswald shorts. Sure he put Oswald through a really bad dork age but I still like them if only for their narmy and werid humor, if Oswald wasn't so obscure I would be questioning why some of the Lantz Oswald shorts haven't showed up in a few Youtube poops because as I said their narmy and weird, well narmy and weird enough to be in Youtube poops, but then you remember how obscure *2bccont.*

[Thenumber1yoshi]

*Continued* but then you remember how obscure Oswald and his cartoons were before Epic Mickey (be them the Disney original or the Lantz shorts, I bet back before any Epic Mickey stuff was shown that there were as many Oswald stuff on Youtube and for the shorts that were on Youtube I bet they never had as many people searching for them or had as many video views until Epic Mickey) and then you remember why despite the Lantz Oswald short's narm weren't in Youtube Poops.

[Thenumber1yoshi]

whoops meant to say that there weren't as many Oswald stuff on Youtube

[FrogsForBreakfast]

Oswald sure got boring as time went on. I blame the shoes.

[TheBearman96]

'' well imagine that! ''

[bgirl098]

so thats how they invented cannon balls

[TheLilpanini]

oswald is so cute in the epic mickey advert: when hes teasing mickey behind his back, theen starts whistling. Aww.

[PrincessMerleen]

Oswald didn't exist any more when my mom was a kid. He existed when my grandma was though. I got Epic Mickey so i decided to see some of Oswald shows.

[Casey3390TV]

@PrincessMerleen same here :) my dad used to watch this :)

[Punkylucky2]

so cool



[Nyemai]

Waouh.

[anonimo6700]

me encanta

[michaeljanet09]

the first forgotten character of disney....

[Calaxus]

Poor Os

[TheHubbabubbafresh]

5:00 uhh...

[daddysgirlda]

wow wat a butt munch

[IHATEYOUELMOrofl]

Wow..... Just plain wow.

[goldentriforce29]

NOw disney has him back, will they include Oswald in any of there movies or cartonns. I bet Walt would be proud of Oswald being back home

[Mixtoplix]

Walts oswald is way more badass!!

[osufanaws11]

I was hoping for Disney's Oswald the LUCKY rabbit, not this weird crap!!!!!!!!!!!

[TimexGames]

at 0:43 , the kangaroo looks like hes masterbaiting lol.

[BT27films]

0:33 Tiny Mickeys! OMG

[Ellement90]

thats animal cruelty

[doceinholeite]

2:22 well imagine that.hahhahahahha hilarious

[Xarcifen]

For some reason the idea of a Giraffe Cannon sounds appealing.

[rampuman]

The thing is that Oswald got cancel so they need it to make another one so Mickey wad born us like Oswald is his big brother

[BT27films]

@rampuman He didn't get canceled, Universal Studios just got the rights of Oswald from Disney.

[Waterbendingwolf]

i don't really like this design of Oswald. but its a great classic!

[zitorezende]

does anyone knows the year of this cartoon? certainly it's post-steamboat willie

[ireviewchannel]

3 people work for dreamworks

[96bcrs]

well imagine that!

[Alterego912]

wait a minute....

Was this made before.. or AFTER steamboat willy revolutionized cartoons with sound?

[Shoknifeman]

@Alterego912 After, this is the Walter Lanz version of Oswald, not the Disney version...ps, the Fleischers did sound cartoons starting in 1924, a full 4 years before Disney, who, as usual, took all the credit

[Alterego912]

@Shoknifeman well, from what I've read about, and/or heard about, someone may have started it, but didn't Disney perfect it?

[Shoknifeman]

@Alterego912 I suppose it depends on the deffinition of perfect, I mean, the sound in Steamboat Willie was far from perfect; let me put it this way, the Disney company has an amazing talent for claiming all the firsts, even when history shows otherwise.

[Alterego912]

@Shoknifeman even the first technicolor cartoon?

[Shoknifeman]

@Alterego912 Well,that depends which version of technicolour... Disney bought exclusive rights to 4 colour technicolour (for cartoons), but, the 3 colour process was used by others, first.

[HoodyBoy97]

ha! all the animals ganged up on the zoo keeper

[kmicenec]

Oswald's voice in this video sounds odd. I don't think it suits him. My opinion anyway. I always imagined that in the future, Oswald should be given a sassy outspoken kind of voice. Anyone with me on that one?

[Shoknifeman]

@kmicenec As I recall, his later voice was rather child-like

[kira12n]

''well imagine that!'' lol

[Cartoonmiker]

This video is really cool

[bcpipes]

I have a harp that sounds like a xylophone, too!

[SilverZeo88]

If I didn't know better, I say this episode is how Oswald see Mickey

[OddishThing18]

oswald reminds me of yakko (from animaniacs)

[Bellboy285]

Lots of great personality animation in this one. I think part of the reason is that (I believe) some of this was animated by Tex Avery.

[baryldrummer]

This is definitely cute, but I'm not so keen on the voice acting (what there is of it). lol

[IspodUxie44]

lol I didn't even think voice acting could be pulled off back then! XD

[AcuAwaGomu]

i think oswald was so cute in this one. a big change from troubled trooly. and i wish he would had stayed in power. i would love to see oswald as the face of disney. i could imagine growing up to that.

[IRONToad117]

its kinda interesting, he is going to be the bad guy in the new mickey game. its going to ROCK

[AcuAwaGomu]

he isent going to be the bad guy. he is going to be the lost brother the real bad guy is the phantom blot.

[526Gaijin]

What exactly IS the Phantom Blot? Does anyone know???

[YumRelish]

Another disney cartoon villian. Originated from the comics. Basically, a living blot of ink. But sometimes he was portrayed as an old man wearing black clothing.

[526Gaijin]

Okay,I see PB in the modern Mickey Mouse cartoons as the person-in-black version;I see in 'Epic Disney' they're gonna go with the living ink version--much creepier and befitting the story. Thanks again.

[SonicthehedgehogfanA]

Its not Epic Disney, Its Epic Mickey.

[526Gaijin]

Oh,yeah. My bad.

[retread01]

I find these old cartoons mildly disturbing. As animation was new and no one was really sure what a cartoon should be like, they tended to overdo the motion, there is always something moving on the screen, usually a looped animation. It is tiring and manic.

[HYAAALP]

Good grief, is EVERY Oswald cartoon flooded with Epic Mickey-related comments?!?

Anyway, I hope they make another cartoon with ol' Oswald. And with all the hype over the new game, I'm pretty sure they will eventually.

[bmoreravens12]

i was just thinking that and yeah they need to star making new oswalds.

[xxKatherineChanxx]

no they dont i think just watching the old school stuff is fine

cant you see how maddly they messed up Mickey?

[taigers12]

He doesn't actually use their bodies, he has the Mad Doctor create robot replicas of them.

[SonicZeroKm]

Wow. It's incredible how this cute little Rabbit who helped the animals from abusers turned into a homicidal maniac that turns all the loveable DIsney characters into monsters and attempts to kill Mickey.

Just... Wow.

[KeiTakaro]

Which is pretty good since Disney hasn't had a really good Villain for quite a long time =D

[taigers12]

That's not what happens in the game at ALL! People need to understand that Oswald is a good guy in the game and that he just is resentfull at Mickey, but the real villain is the Phantom Blot, who Oswald actually fought against and lost too.

[SonicZeroKm]

Uhhhhh... I posted that comment BEFORE it was announced Oswald was just a victim as well as Mickey... Still, wanting to get rid of his own brother is pretty cruel. Nonetheless, it's to expect they'll come to an alliance... I hope Oswald's playable :3

[xxKatherineChanxx]

probobaly not but i would think you have chill on the team

[bmoreravens12]

thats true with the mickey mouse club house

[AMVpurgatory]

@SonicZeroKm

That's the idea. Turning a very unlikely character into an evil villain.

[fireball111121]

@SonicZeroKm Oswald isn't trying to kill Mickey. Owald plays as Mickey's older brother who is stuck in the world of forgotten. They have sibling rivalry, but nothing evil.

[hahashutup32]

@SonicZeroKm

that wasnt mickey!!!!!!

gosh why do u even say that?!?!? and if u didnt like Oswald or any of the Disney charcters y do u even watch this!!!!!????!!!!!

[SonicZeroKm]

@hahashutup32

Where did I say I didn't like Oswald or any of the Disney characters? I love Disney! I've seen every single Mickey Mouse cartoon, that's how much I love Disney.

I know Oswald didn't do anything evil. That comment was posted more than one year ago, when barely anything of the plot was revealed, and people thought Oswald was evil.

Mickey Mouse is one of the most brilliant things ever invented, and all the crap Disney throws at us now is a disrespect to the name.

Mickey rules.

[AcuAwaGomu]

@SonicZeroKm um you have never played the game have you...

[SonicZeroKm]

@AcuAwaGomu

Why do people keep commenting on my year old comment?

I already had to make it clear twice, for crying out loud!

Back on September 2009 barely anything was known about the game, and people thought Oswald was going to be the villain. It was revealed around the end of September, on the October Issue of Game Informer, that Oswald wasn't the villain.

I HAVE the game, I've beat it twice, and I can very well assure you I've played it before you.

[yellowtaxi11]

@SonicZeroKm Wow you definitely never played the game before.

[SonicZeroKm]

@yellowtaxi11

WHY DO PEOPLE NOT PAY FREAKING ATTENTION, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.

BACK IN SEPTEMBER OF LAST YEAR, NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WAS KNOWN ABOUT THE GAME'S PLOT. All that was known, was that the Phantom Blot was the bad guy, everything was screwed up, and that Oswald was in it.

So people assumed Oswald was gonna be a villain, but it turns out he wasn't, I've beat this game 2 times already, so PLEASE people, read my newer comments, not the one I posted a year ago.

[holly8791000]

@SonicZeroKm What are you talking you about? Why would Oswald wannna kill Mickey?

[EpicPrincess100]

@holly8791000 because in the game mickey stole his fame

[KLRBAC]

@SonicZeroKm in what?

[MrSintendo]

@KLRBAC The video game Epic Mickey.

[CBN0]

@SonicZeroKm

Nopers, Ozzy's still a good guy.

[TheAmazingTachan]

@SonicZeroKm If you're referring to epic mickey, it technically wasn't him...

[IsabelAnala]

@SonicZeroKm

ok, you got it all wrong! oswalds just jealous of mickey and mickey's sucess, he doesnt want to kill him! and he didnt make the other disney characters into monsters, he gave all the rejected and retired characters a wonderful home. he just created robots of goofy and donald and whatnot so he'd have best friends like mickey. mickey and oswald make up in the end, in epic mickey. now do you get it? oh, and the're brothers. brothers love eachother, no matter how mad they get.

[SonicZeroKm]

@IsabelAnala

Lesse, Ummmm...

First of all, read when the comment was posted.

More than a year, ahum, right.

Then, look at many previous comments, and you'll see about 5 or 4 of me saying that in September 2009 aboslutely nothing was known about the game, except for the fact that there were forgotten Disney characters, Oswald the lucky rabbit was in it, and everyone assumed Oswald was evil.

Now, I'm only going to say it one last time:

I'VE BEATEN THE GAME TWICE, STOP READING MY OLD COMMENT.

God

[Kevgam13]

Look at 0:44 it looks so wrong

[Wiweeyum]

Wow... he was a total jerk.

[RedQueenHakai]

Look at the little Mickeys in 0:32

[superwrathe]

what is the name of the song oswald is playing on is accordion?

[priscianusjr]

It's called "Little Brown Jug."

[incrediboy7]

oswold might be in epic mickey! that game looks awesome!!!

[OddDeity]

He is.

[LFirstbasema]

How dare the zookeeper lock Oswald in the storage room.

[seca14]

RESPECT.

(HAHA NICE)

♥SONIA♥

[VideoFreakAustinT]

2:20 ROFL!!!! LMAO!!!

[LeRadd]

Oswald was first, until it was taken away from Walt, then he came up with Mickey Mouse, later on got Oswald back, If Oswald was not taken, there would not be any Mickey Mouse. :)

[lalo2099]

Mickey mouse was created by Ub Iwerks

[DisneylandWalt]

YOU ARE WRONG LALO! Disney did create Mickey Mouse! Disney came up with the idea, name, and personality. Ub Iwerks just drew him!

[themessiah114]

Mickey Mouse was created in 1928 by Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks and voiced by Walt Disney. You both are right but the confusion is Mickey Mouse was NOT created by Walt Disney ALONE. While Walt DREW Mickey, it was Ub Iwerks that gave him the IDEA for a mouse character after he lost his other cartoon, Oswald the Rabbit.

[DisneylandWalt]

Now you are confusing it. Walt came up with the idea for Mickey Mouse, and explained its personality, and how he should look. Ub DREW Mickey.

[brassmastah]

I'm not sure that's correct. I was just reading his biography, and it says by most accounts Walt drew Mickey on the train ride back from NY right after losing Oswald.

[Shoknifeman]

@DisneylandWalt Well, truth is that Ub probably did create Mickey, but, as always, Walt took the all credit (A parallel exists in the Archie comics, Bob Montana created Archie and his pals from himself and his school friends, but, MLJ comics founder John Goldwater took ALL the credit for Archie's creation (rot in heck, JG).

[superbuzzspy23]

@DisneylandWalt ummmmm dude this wasnt created by disney your thinking of OSWALD THE LUCKY RABBIT not OSWALD RABBIT

[StudioSHAD]

@superbuzzspy23

It's the same character.

Walt Disney lost the rights to Oswald in a dispute with his distributor, and the rights went to Walter Lantz (creator of Woody Woodpecker if I'm not mistaken). Lantz's Oswald cartoons shortened the name to simply "Oswald Rabbit."

BTW Disney regained the rights to Oswald a couple of years back.

[superbuzzspy23]

@StudioSHAD i know they got the rights back because i have the disney treasures movie duh!

[superbuzzspy23]

@StudioSHAD by the way does that look like oswald the lucky rabbit

[brassmastah]

wrong. do your research. Ub cleaned up the drawing style of Mickey after Walt sketched him originally.

[porter158877]

you can so tell the difference between the ones that disney made and when he left

[bubblymaddie123]

I wonder what it would be like if Walt hadn't had lost Oswald to Charles Mintz.... it would be "Oswald the Lucky Rabbit Club" lolz, and the rabbitkuteers

[superjoo22]

Look at how much (Pegleg) Pete has changed.

[HyaPowa]

"Give the Brute a Great Big Bird!" Neat to hear Ozzy's voice at the end of this one.

What a laff! gotta luv ol' Oswald the Lucky Rabbit.

[EbonyShadow07]

Ha! Gotta love all the gags they put in here!

[blacrock9]

It's funny how Oswald was given gloves AFTER Disney lost the character rights.

If you want more information about Oswald, Wikipedia has a very good and very accurate article about Disney, Lantz, and Oswald.

[fukyamudda]

das kängoroo,soooo gut die lache :D oswald ishc es einfach xD

[Damonrox]

oswald was created by walt disney

[AzNeonAqua]

Wow... that was one violent and sadistic zookeeper. Thank goodness for Oswald.

[fromthesidelines]

Yes, this was originally released by Universal in November 1933, when Tex Avery was working for Lantz; this is obviously a later reissue, as the second version of Oswald from the mid-'30s is featured in the title card. Walter Lantz & Bill Nolan were originally credited as "co-directors".

[baxterfilms]

Tex Avery (who was an animator at the time before WB) contributed the gag with the bear getting his fur eaten by moths, and him saying, "Well, imagine that!"

[96Nathan96]

??? i thought it was oswald the lucky rabbit

[kingdorkiv]

it is, he just looks weird in the title card.

[little196]

Oh Ok....

[assthemagichat]

This is some time after the beginning of the Great Depression, and as a figure, the Keeper could be "the Man" which took everything people had from them, including their dignity. Odwald's character braks out of the shack to help the down and out animals, to essentially say that in context of the Depression that 'everything's going to be alright.'

[JuaneleTamal]

This cartoon is from 1933, when Disney had lost the rights of the character. Walter Lantz did this and all Oswald cartoons until 1946

[auricalco]

Those mice are just like Mickey, but it was to cruel, knocked out a mother is something upsetting. Was Disney agree with this?

Those it had a political explication?

However I feel sorry for Oswald he could can be as famoust as Mickey

[blacrock9]

Actually, most cartoon mice looked alike at the time, Mickey wasn't the first to look like that, he was just the most famous. I think that it is probably because the different companies shared many of the same animators.

[auricalco]

Those mice are just like Mickey

[padib72]

good stuff!
