The Wizard of Oz (1933)

Sorry folks, "The Wonders of Oz" episode 5 isn't quite ready. BUT, here is the full 1933 "Wizard of Oz" cartoon. It will be covered in Wonders 5, so consider this a preview.

This is the first ever Oz cartoon, animated by Ted Eshbaugh. It is public domain. It pre-dates the MGM movie, but notice that Kansas is in black and white, while Oz is in color.

Note that Col. Frank Baum is L. Frank Baum's first son.

This could hardly be considered an anime... But you're thinking of "Journey Back to Oz."

Carl Stalling went on to do the music for the original Bugs Bunny cartoons, didn't he? This sounds like his style, classical music quotes and all...

Hahahaha! Imaginez la séance de brainstorming avant de lancer la création:

"-Huhu, trop bien l'idée de l'oeuf géant à la fin et du robot qui le casse!! Bing, badaboum! Après on dirait qu'il y avait un petit poussin dedans! Et tout à la fin, on fait quoi?

-Et si tout le monde chantait une berceuse pour le petit poussin?

-Huhu, trop bien!

-Huhu!

-Huhu!"
