WENDYF1367 Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 WoW! Love the fact that just a few days ago i was wondering if i could suggest an animation day/night and here it is! I like watching cartoons in the now times, but i still think the "back in the day" cartoons are the best! Thanks TCM for reading my mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamradio Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 I like these, never seen them before i.e. "Mr Bug Goes To Town" (great animation ). Mr Magoo coming up plus some silents. I knew there were a lot in film vaults. Thanks TCM for acquiring them, the programmer must took notice to the animation request thread last year Nice departure from today's CGI animation. What else is out there? Edited by: hamradio on Oct 21, 2012 10:24 PM Edited by: hamradio on Oct 22, 2012 1:50 AM Fixed typos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamradio Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Those charactors in the "Fudget Budget" cartoon looks likes the one on the side of the old Leatherwood milk cartoon. Talk about bringing back memories. I think (not positive) he was called Mr. Moo. I'm watching the old B&W cartoons on TCM, what is this 16mm night? :^0 Edited by: hamradio on Oct 22, 2012 12:04 AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undeadkyle Posted October 22, 2012 Share Posted October 22, 2012 Really enjoyed "Ragtime Bear". Going to have search out more of the theatrical Magoo, as I am mostly familiar with the later TV versions. Also kudos to TCM for going ahead and showing "Lightning Sketches". It's interesting to see as a historical piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's interesting to see as a historical piece. Yes, I watched some of the animated shorts and they were good stuff... Just as funny as anything today... Or as well-done as anything in the case of "The Tell-Tale Heart," for example. Watched "Lightning Sketches`` and was a bit taken aback at first at the ``ethnic caricatures`` of a ``****`` and a ``cohen`` but that was the times, I guess, in 1907. You can see what I`m referring to here: http://www.criticalcommons.org/Members/sammondn/clips/blackton-lightning-a.mp4/view But different times. As you wrote it`s an historical piece and you take that into consideration. In general, the animation was enjoyable to watch and me have no complaints...
