Wow! His First Cartoon....

I absolutely love Popeye; it's something my old man got me into, and I've loved Popeye since childhood. Nonetheless.....this short isn't without its flaws, and there are many...mainly in terms of "continuity", and by that I mean in this short alone. Nonetheless....there's only so much you can expect from an "introduction" short....not to mention the fact that it's exactly that: a short. So for what it is, it's ok; kinda cool to see how it all began, but I'm glad they improved on him over time.

But for some odd reason, it didn't have the opening titles...

Somehow, I recorded a COLORIZED version of this from Boomerang. Thank you, DirecTV!!!

@HomeoftheGoodGuys BTW, the UM&M version in every Betty Boop cartoon plastered the Paramount ink bottle ending which was kinda strange, but it never showed up on numerous Public Domain DVD's.

@deyanmegara I remember seeing an ending in a "Popeye" cartoon, but it got slapped by the AAP logo blocking the ink bottle Paramount ending. And to my knowledge, I've never saw the Paramount ink bottle ending before. It was the first to use stop motion animation while the logo and "The End" title dissolves. It didn't use by hand, but it lifts the ink bottle and closing the lid after it flipped. What an interesting concept. They also used it in both Popeye and Betty Boop cartoons throughout 1933.

This was one of the first Popeye cartoons ever seen and it was the only cartoon in a Betty Boop short. When a TV distributor AAP (before it was bought by United Artists TV in 1958) acquired the 1933-55 "Popeye" cartoon library, they only had one cartoon with Betty Boop, but NTA/UM&M didn't bought only one cartoon, just the Betty Boop cartoon library that NTA/UM&M distributed for syndication, but it didn't used the UM&M copyright on the title of the first Popeye cartoon.
thumbs up if you were raised on popey and company and not todays crap!
