Yep, those 7.5 or 8 min cartoons in the rusted cans from the depot from hell. Inside those cans that required a hammer to open were the gems of the industry.What was your favorite? Mine has to be the Bugs Bunny Porky take-off on Wagnerian opera. The first time I saw it, I was laughing so hard and so spastic that I couldn't thread the next reel. "Oy-yo, to-ho! Oy-yo, to-ho! Be vewwwy qwiet, I'm hunting wabbits!"

Great cartoons! One of my favorite topics. Here are some of my favorites:Swing Shift Cinderella (Tex Avery) - Some of the best timing of any cartoon ever. And "Red" is magnificent! Magical Maestro (Tex Avery) - One great projection gag, other than that, pure lunacy. Robin Hood Daffy (Chuck Jones) - Yoikes and Away! Any of the Bugs/Daffy/Elmer series, especially the one with the line "Pronoun Trouble!" One Froggy Evening (Chuck Jones) - Michigan J. Frog Stimpy's Invention (John Kricfalusi) - OK, it never played in a theatre, but this is about as crazy as they come. "Happy, Happy, Joy, Joy" But my very favorite of all time is a Chuck Jones masterpiece featuring Daffy called DUCK AMUCK. This breaks every possible rule and plays with the entire concept of animated cartoons. A masterpiece. That's a good enough list for now...there are so many more!

Yes, Mike, Kit Parker still handles the WB toons. I used 'em recently re-opening a drive-in to play before the features.Their website is www.kitparker.com and their number is (831) 393-0303. Print quality is touch and go, though.
