These are all pretty rad - and I know I've seen a gif of that second one around as someone's avatar, but I cannot remember who. Nice to know that it came from somewhere, though!

On a lighter note, we cannot forget the :nms: and at times :nws: world of Beyond Grandpa.

I liked the feel of Sciany, as it reminded me of the more grim Tool videos.

Took some work to find this one, but ages ago this short popped up in an animation compilation. :nws: at times, I bring you Romeo and Juliet (1984) by Dušan Petričić. All you need to know is that the cast is comprised of monsters.

Before I forget!

In an effort to track down one specific short, I instead found this compilation from the 22nd International Tournee of Animation (1991). It has Gisele Kerozene in the mix. Not for little ones, meaning that there are some :nms: / :nws: parts in there.

You may also recognize the character at ~12:35, and this compilation does feature the new classic Balance.

The Goddamn George Liquor Program - from 1997, it's one of the first animated programs made exclusively for the Internet in Flash. From a group of cartoonists who worked on Ren and Stimpy, it's crass and archaic but a neat little piece of history

Belladonna of Sadness is amazing, just had to pause it and say the 'black death' scene alone is worth watching even if you don't want to watch the rapey rest of the movie.

Fantastic Planet was good too but way too padded, could've been cut down to 30 mins easily.

The first time I saw Fantastic Planet, the original audio had been replaced with ambient music (think: pre vapor wave) and it had subtitles. Forget which YouTube poster that was, but the music worked really well.

This week, we have a little of both - this short was part of a series made by Warner Bros. for the troops during WWII, but I cannot seem to find any DVD compilations or screenings of restorations. If someone ever animated Goofus and Gallant lessons for the war effort, this series would be it. For these reasons, I am sharing this charming piece of history with you here.

I present, Private Snafu. Warning: this is 1940s America during wartime, so prepare for possible foul language and potentially offensive jokes.

Sylvain Chomet's The Old Lady and the Pigeons is really something. The short took 5 years to produce and it's from the guy who made The Triplets of Belleville so you know you're in for something good. It's a heart-warming story of a lonely police officer taken in by an old lady :3:.

There's a Blu-Ray on Amazon for $15. All HD restorations from National Archives materials.

The Snafu cartoons are neat because it gives you an idea of what Bob Clampett and Frank Tashlin would have done without Production Code stuff to hold them back.

That will go nicely with another DVD I have, which features unedited Popeye cartoons. They have a rather unique disclaimer at the beginning regarding some of the more problematic aspects of the shorts.

In that same vein, here is a really weird one from the Van Beuren studio, Three Little Kittens (1933). They drew a really mean looking deli slicer for this short, and its usage prompted me to share this with you all. :haw:

What's fascinating about Van Beuren is the usage of what appears to be a Mickey Mouse knock-off. Digging around online, I am pretty sure Disney told them to knock it off (via legal action).

You can see even more of it in this short, The Office Boy (1930).
