Some extended-length works today. So put on your snowshoes and climbing spikes, as we embark upon this long, long trail.
This week, a sampling of three studios’/producers’ works from the 1960’s – Jay Ward, Total Television, and King Features.
In this chapter, we enter the TV era, where the most prevalent form of weather is television snow.
Today we survey some of the last storm stories to grace the big screen – some still impressive, a few rather dreadful.
Weather still continued to figure into sporadic offerings in later years, including Daffy Duck, Woody Woodpecker, and two Deitch Tom and Jerrys.
Some classic Disney, a Halloween treat from Tom and Jerry, a triple-decker sandwich of Mister Magoo, and a Bugs Bunny masterpiece.
In the waning days of theatrical cartoons, the luxury of storms and animation of weather extremes became a more seldom-seen sight.
In attendance today are a certain wascally wabbit, a canary who constantly sees putty tats, two different ill-fated black ducks, a double-date with the Terry Bears, and a memorable Disney one-shot.
Lots of fun where the sun don’t shine.
