Wowzers - these were really good! Love some fluid animation, no matter how grim the message. Please keep 'em coming - I'll be on the lookout for more as well. Thanks for posting!

WTF? Now I have to pair this with his scene from Natural Born Killers. Funny that the WB logo is on both. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pH1aKZVdqhc

Holy cow, I forgot about that one! Just read the Wiki for that, and had no idea that Rodney actually wrote it, or that Harold Ramis had any hand in the story. Explains the more mature-ish plot.

I watched this one last night on a whim, and felt that it was a nice follow up to Rover Dangerfield. I won't quote the description because it's pretty long, but a good summary is "don't be a dick during leave, lest you make the locals hate ALL military personnel." This one is not as problematic as most early 20th century animation, but you may find that some bits just don't hold up well over time. From 1956, I bring you US Air Force Training Film SFP-366, or Killjoy Was Here!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pay_BLPpJ4

Hey, Artsy, you ever seen Where The Dead Go To Die? It's probably the most weird, sick, and twisted animation I can think of that made it to feature length.

Oh gently caress no. Maybe on Amazon, that's where I bought my copy; Most of the director's work is just amateur music video stuff and if you do get it, PLEASE watch it with the commentary after the first watch. The guy who made it is really weird but he's totally harmless, he just makes this insane religious horror poo poo for some reason; he's totally not trying to be edgy or anything.

There's a spiritual sequel he did, too, When Black Birds Fly. I think it has even more weird rape than the first one. David Firth voices a talking crow that swears a lot.

Thank you for posting these - don't think I'd ever seen Cure before, but I liked the style a lot.  Since I am playing tour guide this week, I apologize for the tardiness of my update. The twisted nature of this short is subtle, as it was originally designed to promote more than just oil. From 1956, here is Destination Earth. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2qpjLyr-FY

Thank you for your patience! Had a great week, and I hope that you did too. This time around, I thought it would be fun to pick a year and do a comparison. 1956 in the US brings us Your Safety First from the Automobile Manufacturers Association. Apparently the future was The Jetsons? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W8pvcGWtXXE Meanwhile, in Russia, Roman Davydov directed Kolobok: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBhy0vg1zfg The puppets for the latter were made of wood. I wonder if someone has these floating around in a garage somewhere?

This one was lovely - I had CHON stuck in my head all day - and thank you for introducing Faith Hubley's work to me! In fact, let's check out more of her work. Moonbird (1959): quote:Moonbird is a 1959 short animated film by John Hubley and Faith Hubley in which two boys have an adventure in the middle of the night as they sneak out and try to catch a 'Moonbird' and bring it home. Voices: Mark Hubley and Ray Hubley. The film was animated by Robert Cannon and Ed Smith. This film won the 1960 Academy Award for best short subject (Cartoon). Moonbird featured the voices of the Hubley's sons, Mark and Ray ("Hampy"). For the Moonbird, the Hubleys secretly recorded the boys sharing an imaginary adventure before going to sleep in the darkness of their room. Their parents afterwards took the tapes and created an animated film to fit their sons' story. And I am 99.99% sure that this is her E short made for Sesame Street - E-Imagination: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mrdAbj3JiXg

Hope you all enjoyed a fun Saint Patrick's Day yesterday! I bring you a mixed bag this week, so let's get started. First, let's go back to the early days of animation with (gasp!) sound. From F. Lyle Goldman and Max Fleischer, here is the 1929 educational short Finding His Voice. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zkc2gy3rc8A Next, we take a more somber turn. From the description: quote:The Queen's Monastery (Water Colour Animation) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndNJGlBNRUY And on a lighter note, something weird that has popped up in at least one other thread - from Animusic, here is Pipe Dreams: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HR8Oz8Pp8hI Have a great day out there!

Since spring is here and all is full of birds and bees, it felt only appropriate to dust off a naughty one.quote:Animation directed by Sergei Kushnerov. A wordless satyrical if not cynical view on sexuality and the battle of the sexes. From 1993, here is Sergei Kushnerov's very  9 1/2 Minuteshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwKD0B9KVWA

Been digging around for more neat content since I'll be a bit busy this week with birthday shenanigans (god drat I am getting old).  Falling under the 'weird' category is this PSA from 1951 called Cheers for Chubby - and you guessed it - this is all about overeating and dieting! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=14oSJAYFMwo It was produced by Jerry Fairbanks, but the style of this short looks similar to the style used by Famous Studios (in mid-century Popeye, Little Lulu, and Casper cartoons). Any animation buffs want to take a stab at this?

I hope you all enjoyed a nice weekend - my birthday was low key but pleasant. This week brings something a bit dark in nature. From the description: quote:Estonian animation film by Rein Raamat. Tallinnfilm, 1983. The film brings to life in one nightmarish vision three detailed engravings from the early 30s created by Estonian artist Eduard Viiralt: "The Preacher", "Cabaret" and "Hell". Linked for content, I bring you Pőrgu (Hell, 1983)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQWuw7UNwG0

I recently revisited an animation festival from the seventies (that has been reposted to YouTube as both the 1977 and 1978 festival), and felt that the following short was appropriate for this thread. From Bernard Palacios, here is the somber 1975 short Oiseau de Nuit: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S0JmWEmKEbU

Konstantinov created a mathematically computable model of the physics of a moving cat. The algorithms were programmed on the BESM-4 computer. The computer then printed hundreds of frames to be later converted to film. An accompanying scientific paper describes the foundation of the employed physics simulation techniques that nowadays are commonly applied to animation films and computer games.
