Cartoons

Mickey's Surprise Party (1939) - Minnie (and her dog) want to surprise Mickey Mouse with homemade cookies just like his mother used to make. But it goes south when popcorn's accidentally missed in! And after a moment of defending them from the cookies, Mickey decides that the only way to console Minnie is with … Nabisco?

The Karnival Kid (1929) - Walt Disney's Mickey Mouse's 9th film, and the first where he speaks. He's working as a carnival, selling hot dogs (with a mind of their own!) And Minnie's working as a "Shimmy Dancer" - which Mickey doesn't like. Later, with the aid of two cats, he tries to serenade the lovely Minnie. Which her boss doesn't appreciate!

All Wet (1927) - Walt Disney's Oswald the Lucky Rabbit Oswald's selling hot dogs on the beach - many of the hot dog gags were later reworked into the Mickey Mouse cartoon, The Karnival Kid. But then, an attractive lady rabbit comes by, who's infatuated with the lifeguard. So, Oswald *bribes* the lifeguard to let him take over! But then, the lady rabbit needs to be rescued … The Karnival Kid: https://rumble.com/v68dzld-the-karnival-kid.html

Private Eye Popeye (1954) - a spoof of 1950's detective films, where Popeye's playing detective, gets hired (in a funny bit) by Olive Oyl to guard her priceless gem -- which is immediately stolen! The butler did it! And Popeye chases him around the world!

Minnie's Yoo Hoo (1930) - a sing-a-long, led by Mickey Mouse, of the song, "Minnie's You-Hoo"

Out Of The Frying Pan Into The Firing Line (1942) - a patriotic cartoon featuring Minnie Mouse and Pluto. It's a funny attempt at prodding people to save their used baking fats for the war effort! It contains glycerin, which was used to make explosives! Who says cartoons weren't educational?

The Spirit Of '43 (1943) is a Walt Disney cartoon starring Donald Duck, set during World War II. He's torn between being frugal, and saving his money so he can do his patriotic duty (paying taxes!) or binge his pay on himself. Oddly, his frugal side sounds remarkably like Scrooge McDuck. And there's NO subtlety about the spendthrift character

The Thrifty Pig (1941) - Walt Disney's patriotic cartoon, where the Three Little Pigs story is retold, with Practical Pig recommending that his two brothers build their homes with … war bonds! And the Big Bad Wolf is reimagined as a Nazi! Who can't blow down the house made with war Bonds, of course.

Superman - The Bulleteers (1942) - a high-tech gang of criminals have a flying rocket car, that they're using to destroy and steal. Lois Lane is after a scoop, and Superman's after the villains!

The Bandmaster - A 1931 short film by Walter Lantz Productions, starring Oswald the Lucky Rabbit. One of the animators is Pinto Colvig (the original Bozo the Clown - https://famousclowns.org/bozo-the-clown/pinto-colvig-the-original-bozo-the-clown/)
