Subject: not meant for children

The kids were at the babysitter when mom and dad went out to see a movie and one or two feature cartoons. The Costello-like cat mentions something about the "Hays Code," which is the motion picture production code of the 1930's. http://www.artsreformation.com/a001/hays-code.html

This is a classic Warner Brothers cartoon that tells us a lot about the ear in which it was made.

Since it hasn't been noted yet, the cats are takeoffs on Abbott and Costello.

Subject: Medicore Looney Tune

I found the pacing to be too slow, and the animation was pretty dull for a 40's Looney Tune. I love "Looney Tunes", but this whole short is forgettable. Even Terrytoons are better than this!

Subject: Very Good

WWII was a great time for cartoons, especially Warner Bro.'s.
Favorite part; when Bud is bouncing up and down on springs, tweety clobbering him at the top of every bounce, Bud shrugs his shoulders like he just doesn't know what to do about the situation.

A Camplett´s classic. Correct me if I´m wrong, but this is Tweety (no-feathers version) debut.
