Did he do any cartoon voices?

@HootOwl513 7 месяцев назад

When I was a film student at Los Angeles City College in 1970, Mr Blanc spoke to a huge auditorium class for 90 minutes to 2 hours. He included clips from some WB cartoons. And yes, he sure did. All his character voices. We were rolling in the aisles laughing so hard it was painful, almost. What a beautiful guy.

@abnowacky 5 месяцев назад

⁠⁠⁠@@HootOwl513That is amazing! You got a chance to speak with the voice of Daffy, Bugs, Tweety, Sylvester, etc?

@HootOwl513 5 месяцев назад

@@abnowacky I don't remember if I asked Mr Blanc any questions myself. [I was mostly in awe.] He did answer several questions from students. I was impressed by what a down-to-earth guy he was, and how generous he was speaking to a small auditorium of college kids. I don't know if the School paid him any stipend or fee. [It would have been ''peanuts'' on a Hollywood level. ] I got the impression he did it out of the kindness of his heart. At the end of his presentation, he got a standing ovation from the House.

@abnowacky 5 месяцев назад

@@HootOwl513 I was suprised to hear Blanc smoked a pack of ciggarettes every single day since age 9, as he aged so well. He must’ve had very good genetics. I also find it interesting that Daffy Duck is the first character he did the original voice of. I know he also did the voice of Porky in “Porky’s Duck Hunt” (1937) but the original voice was Joe Dougherty who Blanc managed to mimic very well. Also wonder if he showed the full process of how these cartoons were made? I know they would put cels on top of background sheets of paper but I don’t understand the rest? How did they synchronize the sound so well? Sorry, i’m acting very excited and asking a lot of questions because you’re someone who met the legend.

@Monkofmagnesia 7 месяцев назад

I fail to see how Porky reminded anyone of Our Gang. He always seemed a characyer unique to himself.

@InvisibleAvenger 7 месяцев назад

That was only for the initial "I haven't got a hat" cartoon. Multiple new characters were introduced in that short like Beans the Cat, and all were aged up for later appearances. Porky proved to be the best of the lot and THE biggest Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies character early on. Warner Archive put out a great DVD collection called PORKY 101 a few years ago, it's the first 101 Porky cartoons in release order. If I remember correctly they are all uncensored too.

@PatrickRsGhost 7 месяцев назад

The original plan was to create a handful of shorts featuring Porky with Beans (a play on "pork and beans"), with Beans being the lead character and Porky the side character, but the animators and audiences seemed to like Porky more. The opening to "I Haven't Got A Hat" in which it shows irised-in shots of individual characters - Beans, Oliver Owl, Porky, and others - is reminiscent of some of the "Our Gang" films.

@HootOwl513 5 месяцев назад

Spanky McFarland was the token Obese Kid in the ''Our Gang'' -- ''Little Rascals''* comedy shorts series. [ * In the '50s Juvenile Delinquency became a social issue, and the word Gang took on ominous overtomes it didn't have in the 1930s.] Anyway Porky and Spanky played similar characters, and were the butt of many Fat Guy jokes.

@jackgilchrist 7 месяцев назад

Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies caricatured everyone, that was part of the comedy. I don't recall them ever censoring the Irish, Scottish, German, French, etc., stereotypes. And Americans too. Yosemite Sam is certainly a stereotypical caricature, as is Elmer Fudd, among many others. As someone of Scottish and Irish descent (and some German and other things too), I could certainly take offense at some of those portrayals... if I had a big stick up my ass. Thankfully I do not. Apparently it's ok to make stereotype jokes about white people. Which I am fine with. Maybe everyone should lighten up a bit too.

@MSinistrari 7 месяцев назад

Back in the 80s during the Night Flight show, they'd sometimes show a clip of Porky accidentally smashing his hand while hammering a nail. He stuttered 'son of a b..b..b' before saying 'son of a gun', only to laugh and turn to the viewer saying 'you thought I was going to say son of a b****'. Hearing Porky swear was definitely an attention grabber, but I have no idea where it had originally come from. The voice is exact through the entire clip so I strongly doubt it was dubbed.

@PatrickRsGhost 7 месяцев назад

Carl Stalling was a genius in his own right. He had an entire library of music at his disposal to use to his discretion. While we're mostly familiar with the classical music being used, Stalling also used popular music of the era. In some cases the lyrics were changed to match the action of the cartoon; in other cases, only the tune was used because it fit the scene perfectly. The song used in "Wholly Smoke" has original lyrics, but is not an original tune. The tune is "Mysterious Mose", which first appeared in a 1930 Betty Boop cartoon of the same name, and has been performed by numerous artists, most notably Ted Weems and Harry Reser.

Nice video but the title The Censorship of Porky Pig sounds like it has to do with the censorship of Porky Pig, not the censorship of racist elements of some cartoons in which Porky Pig appeared. Lots of cartoons in the 30s and 40s have racist elements, regrettably, and I'd guess most of the viewers here have seen as much of it as they would care to see. Showing that rather than things about the censorship of Porky Pig is annoying and an example of click bait. Other than that the video is very good.

The black-face is a bit much, but the Mexican and Native American portrayals aren't so bad since thy reflect their classic cultures. Why would 1824 be anything like 2024, after all? The Chinese stereotype isn't great either, but it does reflect some classic Chinese culture. If harm wasn't intended, maybe keep the cultural accuracies intact? Also, I know pro-smoking American patriotic citizens probably detest propaganda that teries to force them not to smoke or w/e, but why would we want to see small children (the audience it was aimed for) smoking a cigarette? Although the church stuff is a little telling on the side... "People shouldn't force you to smoke but it's okay to be forced to go to our one and only church" or something?

As a Native American myself I get so mad when they cut any clips in animation or early films that show or depict any Native American tribes or Indians exaggerated or not because of so called racism. Somehow completely erasing us from all film is considered better somehow I'm told. Like current day advertising and sports team Logos being removed because it somehow offend certain people oddly though those are not Native American people because we seem to be the last ones that are ever consulted or asked about this if at all. Most of the people on the Banning of these mascots and logos don't realize that native tribes have deals worked with these teams that provide money for the use of these logos that helps schools children and women shelters but that's not as important as hurt feelings of non Native people.

The four matches were supposed to represent the Mills Brothers, just as the pipe cleaner becomes Cab Calloway. One drawback of this kind of censorship is that very often what's being cut is caricatures of the famous Black performers of the day, which seems more offensive in the long run, as if viewers aren't supposed to know or remember them. The so-called blackface had more to do with the limits of character design in the black and white days of animation, so many 1930s cartoon characters being based on the Felix the Cat-Mickey Mouse model.
