Mickey Mouse Follies: Black and White: November 2007
http://mmfolliesbw.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 25, 2007. The Barnyard Concert - April 10, 1930. Is Mickey's 16th cartoon and is also historic in its own way. This toon was the first to showcase the Mickey Head with a sunburst behind it; with the advent of color in later years, this opening would go on to become one of the character's most popular cartoon trademarks. The toon also showcases a brand new title card design. Comparing the new title card with the old one used for the toon. Which is strange since by. Because this toon has a...

Mickey Mouse Follies: Black and White: July 2008
http://mmfolliesbw.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Monday, July 14, 2008. Blue Rhythm - August 18, 1931. Is Mickey's 31st toon, and though it is a typical song-and-dance film it is musically entertaining. The film begins with pianist Mickey onstage entertaining a packed theater. The use of shadows is impressive, though by now it's apparent that the Disney animators have mastered that technique. One of the visuals I found interesting was Mickey playing in the dark with nothing able to be seen except his eyes and gloves. Character - Clarabelle Cow. Mickey ...

Mickey Mouse Follies: Black and White: December 2008
http://mmfolliesbw.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Tuesday, December 30, 2008. The Duck Hunt - January 1, 1932. Is the 55th film in Mickey's cartoon series. The toon stars Mickey and his best pal Pluto enjoying the thrill of hunting in nature. The film opens with the Mouse and his pup walking cheerfully and briskly out in the woods. Just look at that beautiful animated reflection on the water. This toon is full of sight gags such as the inclusion of Pluto's fleas. As Mickey and Pluto march through the forest, so do the fleas from Pluto's back. For a few ...

Mickey Mouse Follies: Black and White: Mickey's Orphans - December 9, 1931
http://mmfolliesbw.blogspot.com/2008/11/mickeys-orphans-december-9-1931.html
Sunday, November 23, 2008. Mickey's Orphans - December 9, 1931. 54th in Mickey's cartoon series is Mickey's Orphans. Just in time for Christmas, this toon takes on a holiday theme. This toon is special due tot he fsct it is the Mouse's very first Christmas-themed film. The film opens dramatically on a hooded figure out in a chilling blizzard. On her arm she carries a covered basket. She soon comes upon a small, lighted house and peers inside the inviting window. One kitten even causes the pet bird grief&...

Tuesday, September 30, 2008. Mickey Cuts Up - November 30, 1931. 53rd in Mickey's cartoon series is Mickey Cuts Up. A film featuring Mickey and his lovely Minnie in the garden. Of course Mickey's pooch pal Pluto is present too, making Mickey's chores just a bit harder to complete. The film begins with the Mouse doing some yard work with his faithful rover. I love how Mickey recruits Pluto to pull the mower thus allowing him to pretty much do no work at all. While all this goes on, Pluto sits quietly off ...

Tuesday, February 26, 2008. Background Art: Mickey's Choo-Choo. It's easy to admit that by today's standards the early Mickey Mouse cartoons were primitive. Lush drawings and animation didn't really begin to appear until later years. Yet even though these films may not look as sophisticated as some of the Mouse's later toons, the animation art presented is still unique. Below are background paintings from. Sunday, February 24, 2008. The Birthday Party - January 7, 1931. Mickey is amazed and truly suprised.

Sunday, February 7, 2010. The Grocery Boy - February 11, 1932. 56th in the Mickey Mouse short film library is the gem The Grocery Boy. This toon stars Mickey as a grocery boy delivering food to sweetheart Minnie. Pluto also tags along and causes quite the disturbance. The toon opens with Grocery Boy Mickey preparing a basket of food for one of his loyal customers. He and pal Pluto delightfully weigh potatoes. Minnie is in love with Mickey, but she still enjoys being the diva every now and again. Once...
