Long before Deadpool Broke the 4th Wall in Ridiculous ways, there was Felix the Cat taking full advantage of the fact that "In a Cartoon, you can do Anything"!
Can't wait to see you and Felix at the Redford! Bring a copy of Willie Whooper bluray (and perhaps show one ;D) if you have one any sitting around, gotta grab a copy.
What a FAB 100th Birthday tribute to Felix the Cat ! :) His shorts were one of my FAVZ as a kid growing up in the early-late 1940z & early 1950z !! BUT.... sad - but TRUE - THIS cartoon would be deemed ( and NO DOUBT - BANNED ! ) by the Snowflakes of today's P.C. crowd - & - the ACLU !!! It would be labeled - ''RACIST'' among other negative labels .... and the depiction & treatment of FELIX - & - the DRAGON would be fodder for PETA - & - the Humane Society !! :(
Don’t get me wrong- this is a funny cartoon, full of inventive gags and a great testament to the kind of absurdity and imagination that animation is so perfect for expressing- but anyone who says its portrayal of the Chinese _isn’t_ racist is kidding themselves.
