The Strangest Cartoons Ever Made, Vol. 1 [DVD]

The Strangest Cartoons Ever Made is indeed a weird show for the most part. There is one that is weird not in content but due to the fact that it was made for a whiskey company. The Peanut Vendor would prob scare the dickens out of a young kid! It is not a cartoon so much as a 'puppet' of sorts. If you have a taste for the odd or unusual you will love this weird and old cartoons. Their age is part of their charm. One of the cartoons which is French and called Joi de Verve is very unusual; please don't ask me what it is about! We see two girls dancing and prancing around what appears to be an electric company! Their dresses are constantly flying around and at one point very, very briefly we see a breast! If you are not watching closely you wont even see it. By cartoons end they are prancing around a train station. All very strange for a cartoon made in 1934. If you have a taste for the odd and unusual I highly recommend this collection.

Great curios of the cartoon world. Be warned, though, some of these cartoons are of dubious quality, and many of them don't make any sense. That's part of the reason why they're so charming! I particularly enjoyed Sniffy Escapes Poisoning, a PSA cautioning children against using pharmaceuticals in which pills sing and dance. Joi De Vivre was a real surprise on the compilation. This beautiful and surreal short is a also great example of art nouveau. Highly recommended to anyone interested in animation history!

love old cartoons

The video quality of the cartoons are in my opinion, very good considering that these graphics are almost 80 years old. The sound is also OK with same consideration. There is a frame though, in the first feature that the sound just disappears and that could be somewhat frustrating but again, these cartoons are almost 80 years old! As for what is selling, these are indeed some strange cartoons! One gets what is sold here. Overall is worth the price and I would recommend it.

Strange is right! Impress your friends..LOL

Excellent collection that lives up to its name! Thunderbean once again has put together a wonderful collection of vintage animation!

Splendid super terrific
