Uncle John's Crazy Town: August 2012
http://journeytojohnsbrain.blogspot.com/2012_08_01_archive.html
Sunday, August 12, 2012. I'm always surprised when I see how well received the Fleischer cartoons were in Europe at the time of their release. While other would be animated cyphers, outside Mickey Mouse, failed to make an impact it seems the french embraced Betty Boop almost immediately. There is even a possibly apocryphal story that Jean Paul Sartre was a fan. Who knows? Anyway, here is an article from a french newspaper, Minerva, from 1934 in which child stars (of whom she is included) are featured.

Uncle John's Crazy Town: May 2013
http://journeytojohnsbrain.blogspot.com/2013_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 29, 2013. Color Classic V. Silly Symphonies Pt.2: The Rambling Conclusion. Welcome back to my brain. It's scary in here. Up my series of posts on the oft maligned Fleischer Color Classics. In terms of advertising there was no-one to beat Disney. Still, the Fleischers produced some gorgeous ads and posters for their cartoons. Image: Greenbriar Picture Show. The films of the 30's, and particularly the Silly Symphonies, are often described in terms of their training value. Screen Song ,.

Saturday, July 28, 2012. Betty Boop on DVD? If the set only had 'Betty Boop's Penthouse' it'd be worth the asking price. Click the link to get to the the mention of it today at DVD Savant. Here is the mention of it from a few months back at the Home Theater Forum. If anyone out there can correct me on any of this let me know. Posted by J.V. (AKA "White Pongo"). Wednesday, July 4, 2012. Posted by J.V. (AKA "White Pongo"). Cartoon Research Garage Sale. Do you want it parted on this side? Betty Boop on DVD?

Uncle John's Crazy Town: January 2013
http://journeytojohnsbrain.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 29, 2013. Old Educational ad from the Film Daily. No mention of cartoons . but captures my sentiments perfectly. It's healthful! Posted by J.V. (AKA "White Pongo"). Tuesday, January 15, 2013. A while back, over at Mark Mayerson's. Blog, Mark did a post on the varying standards of equipment used during animation's 'golden age' and linked to an article by JJ Sedelmaier. Don't see it here though in (I think) the inking department of the Fleischers New York studio. Whether it did or not thou...

Uncle John's Crazy Town: October 2012
http://journeytojohnsbrain.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 27, 2012. Ghost of a Post. Send her in". If I had my druthers every voice in cartoons would sound like Billy Murray. Over at "She Blogged By Night". Stacia is posting a terrific set of early 30's "cheesecake" Halloween glamour shots. I love how the surreal elements of the Fleischer cartoons almost seem to actually exist. In these. After you've finished oggling our Miss Betty Boop go cheggitout! But, for now, you should concentrate. CON-CEN-TRATE. During the span of years from 1914, I ha...

Uncle John's Crazy Town: May 2014
http://journeytojohnsbrain.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 4, 2014. Betty Boop: Vol.3. After emerging from my mailbox home, disc firmly in teeth, it occurred to me I was due to give my thoughts on BETTY BOOP THE ESSENTIAL COLLECTION VOL.3. Just stop sticking in those cardboard mailers-they really hurt! Now I should say I've seen these cartoons a gargoonian. The question on my mind remained whether Olive had sought to correct the screen ratio problem that distracted highly from my enjoyment of their first two volumes. At first everything seemed OK...

Uncle John's Crazy Town: October 2011
http://journeytojohnsbrain.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Monday, October 10, 2011. Today I am showcasing another cartoon from the WTF department: the Scrappy cartoon 'The Gold Getters' (released March 1, 1935) animated by dependable duo Sid Marcus and Art Davis (& crew). Sure, it's not on anybody's top ten list but there's some funny gags, some nice rubbery cartoon animation, weeeeird timing and, well, a lot of head scratching in general. What more could you ask for? As times were difficult bartenders in such establishments allowed only one drop of acid per mug.

Uncle John's Crazy Town: Olive Films' Betty Boop
http://journeytojohnsbrain.blogspot.com/2013/06/olive-films-betty-boop.html
Sunday, June 2, 2013. Olive Films' Betty Boop. Only one grievance. Every Olive disc has so far made use of an original poster for the covers of their discs. It would be nice to see one used for this release also. This image is a little too close to the multitude of Betty PD issues that have proliferated through the years. Yesterday on their Facebook page. Charles Laughton sips tea in this frame grab from the Universal/MCA video tape release of 'Island of Lost Souls'. Note the window behind him. I don't s...
