A common torrent with some uncommon films

Although this cartoon has sound, some intertitles still remain.

The cat in this short does resemble Felix. The differences between those two is that this one has rounder head and thicker limbs.

I know this short was originally silent. Perhaps it was reissued in sound a few years later.

The Alice Comedies were indeed an entertaining series. The reason why Disney and his fellow animators cancelled the project because it was expensive. What adds to the cost was inclusion of a live-action girl.

This is perhaps the funniest of the Alice Comedies.

3:51-5:24 involved the kid, Oscar eating like a pig and Julius tells him to eat properly like a gentleman and Oscar finds that eating style to be lame. They did that on other cartoons like in the 1929 post-Disney/Iwerks Oswald the Lucky Rabbit cartoon, Homeless Homer and the 1930 Flip the Frog cartoon, Little Orphan Willie.

@yohannbiimu I realized that both Friz Freleng, Hugh Harman and Rudolf Ising have in common have in common that started their cartoon careers on Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks' star, Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. So did Tex Avery and Walter Lantz's careers as well too.

OMG I loved it ....

@ProbradIII I watched your other videos and I think you're the freaking GENIOUES .. :D

@Legomakerx actually, Walt Disney was very creative with OTHERS' drawings. He did not do any of this animation himself. People like Ub Iwerks, Hugh Harman, Rudolf Ising, and Friz Freling did all of the drawing.

[Legomakerx]

Walt himself is always creative with drawings :)

I have it on a VHS called "Alice in Cartoonland." I got it off of Amazon.
