Halloween Cartoon For Oct. 15th

Here's a golden oldie for ya. This is the first Silly Symphony short from 1929. Directed By Walt Disney, and animated by Ub Iwerks. in 1994, 1,000 animators decided what the 50 greatest cartoons of all time were. This was made #18. The animation, and choreography are still very impressive.

Animation Corner - Top 10 Disney Shorts

Everyone has their favorite treasured cartoon moments. Being a kid waking up, or coming home from school to watch your favorite shows. But I've seen the new shows on TV and the majority of them are awful. Not the say a lot of the shows from the 80's and 90's were all flawless. But today with the easy access to animation programs for any computer, any idiot with a laptop can make a Phineas and Ferb, or any of the plethora of shitty quickly made c.g. series. Today they're made on a assembly line, churning them out as fast as they can, not for the love of animation, but like migrant workers just trying to clock in and clock out. Now their is always exceptions, like Adventure Time, or Sym-Bionic Titan. But most of the cartoons today have no guts, and no heart.  So this is for the nostalgic memories of our childhood, and for the new children who are starting their own memories. And just like food, showing you and your children there is more to life than cheap, hard to digest fast food-type cartoons. But to enjoy the painstaking art of making a high quality, well crafted, gourmet short film, that comes from the soul, for the appreciative to enjoy.


This my first Animation corner, is to feature my favorite non-main character Disney shorts. No Mickey, Donald, or Goofy. But still just as important to be shown in the lexicon of American pop culture.
