Everyone, please - enough with the "YOU FORGOT..." Once again. This is not a video about every single thing Mickey has appeared in or every single costume he has ever worn, it is about the evolution of his 'design'. Yes, he may appear in 'Mickey and the Roadster Racers' in racing gear, but his design is prominently the same as every other 3D version of the character, such as that from 'Mickey Mouse Clubhouse' - which was touched on in the video. If I were to talk about every single thing Mickey ever appeared in and every time he changed an outfit or a t-shirt, we'd be here all day.
For a few cartoons starting with The Little Whirlwind, Mickey's ears were redesigned so they would look not perfectly round when his head was in a silhouette but audiences didn't like the new look so the ears became perfect circles once again and stayed that way ever since even in CGI form.
@@mr.deejay8830 I'm not kidding when I say that I am physically incapable of picturing an angular Mickey in my head! The closest I can get to is the new Mickey Mouse shorts design.
It’s because he used a spray that makes him look young no matter how old he is XD The rest of the gang uses it and so does every other cartoon character for the golden age (who got a reboot, at the very least)
My favorite look is actually one that wasn't mentioned. Mickey went through a slight design change in Epic Mickey. While the base design is heavily influence from the Pie-Eyes version, Mickey is a bit skinnier and lankier, if only by a little, making him seem more stretchy and malleable, sorta like an ink blot, which is appropriate given the games theming and the fact that Mickey literally absorbs some of The Blot. This version of Mickey is a well-meaning character, but his curiosity caused all the problems that led to the story of Epic Mickey, so he's certainly a bit more mischievous, just in the Steamboat Willie "playful" way!
I miss him being more heroic and mischievous. I really love Epic Mickey the first game of course. I love how he slowly starts to understand his playful mischievous actions have consequences. Makes him more realistic then him just being a Happy Go Lucky Hero.
I love the pie eyed Mickey which is why I love the new Mickey shorts! But I like the 40's/90's version as well. I really don't like the 50's Mickey, I feel he is the weirdest looking one...
I love Mickey's 30's style, he's a lot more flexible and more expressive compared to his older design, which can lead to some fantastic displays of emotion and smooth animation. I do enjoy his modern design, it's neat and all, but 30's Mickey has a place in my heart and will always remain my favorite Mickey
One fact is wrong. Though Walt Disney himself did most of Mickey's voice during the 30's and 40's until Fun and Fancyfree where it was the last time he did Mickey due to both being very busy as boss and also his voice were affected by smoking too much and therefore only the first half of Mickey and The Beanstalk and for the rest of the shorts and TV-special until Mickey's Christmas Carol, he was replaced by Sound Designer Jimmy McDonald, Walt didn't do Mickey's voice in Carnival Kid, that is a common mistake. It was actually music director Carl W. Stalling most known for doing music for Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies cartoons, who did Mickey's first voice with "Hot Dogs! Hot Dogs!". A missed fact that for a short time Mickey's ears would change from perfectly round all the time no matter the direction he was facing, to slightly more realstic ears that looks differnet when angeled, starting with The Little Whirlwind but audicenes didn't like the design so he returned to his iconic perfectly round ears, similar to Elmer Fudd was overweight for a few cartoons to match body physique with his voice actor Arthur Q Bryant (though his fat face were kept for the future).
My fondest childhood memories of Mickey Mouse was repeated Christmas viewings of Mickey's Once (and Twice) Upon a Christmas and reruns of House of Mouse. I love that Mickey is still a major part in Disney's legacy today, and while I'm not an avid watcher of the new cartoons, I really like the distinct style and the more I see clips of them and will try to check them out soon. My favorite Mickey cartoons are easily The Sorcerer's Apprentice, Get a Horse, Thru the Mirror, The Band Concert, Lend a Paw, and Pluto's Judgement Day, just to name a few.
I’m really not a fan of the 50’s look. It almost looks like a knockoff. I grew up with his early 2000’s look, and stuff like Sorcerers Apprentice and Christmas Carol being my favorite tapes. So that weird spot in between has always been off putting.
you know ive gone too far when I start thinking of a fan-project from the Everywhere At the End of Time community that contains music from the early mickey cartoons (or as i call them, mickey’s glory days).
My favorite Mickey Mouse cartoon is The Band Concert, but my favorite appearance of his is in The Sorcerer’s Apprentice in Fantasia. Mickey’s Christmas Carol and Mickey and the Beanstalk also hold a special place in my heart
House of Mouse/Mickey Mouse Works/Runaway Brain are my favorite versions of Mickey. I also like Through the Mirror(1936) for the choreography and playful attitude.
i always call these "pie eyes" from mickey "pacman eyes" even when pacman was a thing many decades later lmao, i guess i will call them pie eyes now :) i forgot to add that my fav design is his late 1920s look in steamboat willie
Mickey mouse is my number one favorite Disney character, second is Goofy and I love him so much!❤ he's been around for 91 years and I am a Disney fan and a Monster Jam fan. That would be cool if Monster Jam contact Disney to make a Mickey Mouse and all of the characters into a MJ truck. and you can't have Disney without Mickey mouse.
I didn't like Mickeys most recent redesign the first time I saw it. I was in line in Toon Town to see Mickey and they were playing the newer shorts. They are actually really funny so now I've warmed up to his new design. Isn't it crazy how afraid we are of change? To anyone against the new Mickey, I say just give the shorts a chance, you might like what you see.
Yeah... It doesn't really matter how it look cuz after a while you gonna get use to it. Take this two examples: the live action remake of Genie pissed everyone, but after the newest trailer for Aladdin, we just don't really care anymore; now I know I enter in video game area, but games use animations so... The design for Knuckles for Sonic BOOM shoked the fans in a bad way, but now no one really care about how it looks.
We just wish DeStorm Power would take us back to those days. I would go with Ray William Johnson, but he is closer to Justin Timberlake than Mickey Mouse.
My favorite Mickey Mouse cartoons was Steamboat Willie and Symphony Hour. What I like about Steamboat Willie is it is a parody to Steamboat Bill Jr starring Buster Keaton. What I like about Symphony Hour is that Goofy accidentally broken the instruments and the musicians were forced to play them live. And I was shocked when Mickey pulled a gun on Donald when he was trying to walk out in the middle of the performance!
7:37 Probably because I'm used to the way Mickey Mouse is drawn here in Europe (in the italian and scandinavian comics) he seems reeeaaallly strange to me WITHOUT the everyday clothes, almost like he's naked.
my favourites: 20's 30's (when it got its colour with white gloves) 2000's (the 2D one with the best graphics and talks clearly) my least favourites: 40's 50's 80's 90's 2004 (3D) 2013(3D) but that's just my opinion
Personality-wise, the best Mickey is the Runaway Brain and Mickey's Mouseworks version. He's sort of a flawed everyman who gets himself in over his head, often by being too competitive or stretching the truth.
I like a few different Mickey Mouse designs equally. Sorcerer Mickey and Runaway Brain Mickey get equal first place in my book. It's hard to choose just one favourite.
Dude there is this ONE problem. When you went over Mickey's Steamboat Willy design and through the black and white period, Mickey's eyes weren't made smaller. Just the detail of the eye is removed, but his actual eye still has the same size as in the Plane Crazy short
Ive always had a fascination for that stylized early 1950s design. It has so much appeal. Its such a shame the Mickey shorts were discontinued so early.
About Mickey Mouse, I didn't care for himself from 1929, 1930, 1931, 1932, 1934, 1937, 1958, 1969's and 1970's, and 1980's. (I only like when his eyes are wide-around; 👀-or-●●, not shaped like 1 slice of pizza or a piece of cake or whatever from a box or a plate.) When Disney also made "Mickey Mouse Cartoons" back in 2013, I do like the show, but Mickey Mouse's eyes looks like those same kind of eyes!
What are you guys trying to prove seriously i hate Disney but i think the public doesn't know how to use mickey mouse i rather for him to stay with he copyright stuff sure Disney might be greedy but i don't want my childhood to be ruined by some fools in the internet
