Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen

Blaironit Excellent film with a gripping story!

SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

Robert Reynolds This is a one-shot cartoon produced by Warner Brothers. There will be spoilers ahead:One of the things Warner Brothers wanted from their animated shorts was for them to plug items in the WB music catalog. Thus the titles of the shorts were typically taken from songs in that catalog and a cartoon with at best a loose plot (or in this instance, no plot to speak of) was built more or less around the song.In this case, a junk wagon is taking a load to the dump. There's the almost obligatory chamberpot joke, with a neat little twist at the end of the gag. The focus of the short is a mannequin which is dumped at the beginning. He fashions a piano and begins playing the title song and the short is basically sights gags from then on.There are a couple of caricatures (Maurice Chevalier and band-leader Ted Lewis, who would have been well-known 80 years ago, but who is largely forgotten today) and there's a visual using the RCA Victor logo somewhat creatively. Otherwise, there's a handful of puns and rather average sight gags. Some marching soldiers sink Washington crossing the Delaware, which turns into "The Spirit of '76" and a "Grandfather" clock becomes a sort of maypole for some alarm clocks, for example. The ending is cute, predictable and possibly an editorial comment of sorts.This is worth seeing once.

Dawalk-1 Firstly, I'm sorry the last commentator here couldn't/didn't feel this Warners/Merrie Melodies short and has no appreciation for a real good thing when it's seen. Secondly, concerning the title song that's performed here, it's better and I rather listen to that than the crunk/snap/auto-tune based rap/hip-hop mess that had hit the commercial/mainstream music scene this decade. Also, I like the early, black and white cartoons as much as the colored ones. This is one of my favorite b&w animated featurettes. I find the title tune to be the stuck-in-your-head-in-a-good-way kind of catchy. The last reviewer is probably into the sub-genres of music I just stated, that might be why that reviewer couldn't get into this. If that case is true, then I'm sorry, something must be wrong with him not to be grabbed by this.After being carried in a wagon (by the way, not truck), pulled by a drowsy junkman and his drowsy horse, the bumps the hit along the way causes the wagon to jerk and all the things to fall into a dump. One of them is a male mannequin, who comes to life after a clock bonks him on the head. He finds an old piano and after substituting the missing strings with a row of bedsprings, he begins playing the title song. Soon, all the other junkyard denizens join in the act. I find this to be entertaining, don't take the second reviewer's word, see for yourselves. If this doesn't put smiles on your faces and get y'all in a good mood, then I'm not sure what else will.

MartinHafer This is a Harman-Ising produced cartoon from Merrie Melodies (Warner Brothers) and it is EXACTLY the sort of crappy cartoon I truly hated when I was a kid. You see, on the Porky Pig show that was on TV in the late 60s and early 70s, they occasionally had some of these very early black & white singing cartoons and all the kids I knew did their chores or went to the bathroom when these shorts came on the tube! The story begins with a silly garbage truck hauling stuff to the dump--which in this case is off the side of a cliff. A mannequin is among the rubbish and he begins to sing and dance and do some of the WORST and uninteresting imitations you could imagine (particularly the one that they TRIED to make sound and act like Maurice Chevalier). Uggh...this is a truly stupid and annoying cartoon whose theme song will get stuck in your head--even when you DON'T want it to be there! Remember, before you watch it, I DID WARN YOU!

beyond_the_lake I first discovered this cartoon on a show called Late Night Black & White on Cartoon Network. As a fan of black and white cartoons, I eagerly stayed up later than usual to watch this show. It turned out to be well worth it because of this adorable little piece stuck right into the middle of the episode. It begins as a wooden doll falls out of a junk truck and into a pit filled with other interesting pieces of furniture, including everything from a clumsy dancing grandfather clock to three dress dummies who serve as back-up singers. What ensues is an upbeat musical barrel of giggles that everyone will love, no matter what age. Whether you saw it when it was new or are just getting into black and white cartoons, A Great Big Bunch of You is sure to capture and delight you.
