This payoff in this scene turned out much better in the final airing with Jimbo’s line: “All right, Simpson, you win this round…”

I've had this in my collection for YEARS. Will share and upload to the Internet Archive within the next few weeks. I got this when taking a pre-college TV Animation Writing workshop from a teacher who knew (or knows) Maggie Roswell.

My GF & I went to our third Noir Fest screening to check out Billy Wilder’s bitterly cynical ACE IN THE HOLE (aka THE BIG CARNIVAL) in Phoenixville’s Colonial Theater. Afterwards, we grabbed some wood-fired pizza.

Pretty good Monday, I’d say!! (The Disney figures are from PlazaJapan.)

Finale of TRAP HAPPY PORKY (’45), largely animated by Ken Harris. Note how Ken had to animate 6-7 characters bunched together—a very complex assignment that WB's post-war budgets would’ve prohibited later on.

Sloppy drunk alley cats animated by Bobe Cannon. (TRAP HAPPY PORKY, 1945.)

Just scored some Felix color Sunday pages from the 1930s. Here’s an appropriate one for Halloween! 💀

My gf & I both are huge fans of BACK TO THE FUTURE. Just caught its 40th anniversary screening at Movie Tavern. It definitely hits harder on a big screen.

Happy to have done some QC on this new set of silent Aesop’s Fables by animation pioneer Paul Terry from ClassicFlix and Cartoon Logic!

FYI: Bill Tytla fans will find some of his earliest animation here in several silent Fables.

A longer Ken Harris sequence from HEY THERE IT'S YOGI BEAR ('64).

When Ken Harris was brought on to work on HEY THERE IT'S YOGI BEAR ('64), he and Bill Hanna worked out a special arrangement: Bill worked on the X-sheets at night, and Ken would arrive the next morning with his work set out for him...aboard Bill Hanna's yacht!

My good friend Charlie Judkins tells me this is Benny Goodman on clarinet. (If not Benny, possibly Jimmy Dorsey.)
