Does anybody agree.. I would happily watch this animation all day but i would hate to have to watch all this new computer generated animation crap that is on the childrens television.. I used to love the old cartoons - Dexters labarotory, Power puff girls and etc. but these new ones just look bad.. Johnny test? What the Hell is this crap. Looney toons was the stuff, they were real cartoon characters - could never kill bugs or wiley - i would happily kill off these new abominations. Im 13 BTW!

It was the first animated film on celluloid but not the first animation to be projected on screen.
The first ones were made around 1892-1893 in France and Germany and featured color drawings on a semi-transparent paper fitted into a projector similar to a celluloid one and projected in 5-10 frames per second.

At 1:43, a scene is omitted from this historical classic. Would the poster care to share what it was for posterity's sake?
