82 years later he works for the bug mafia

This kinda stuff was my childhood. I was raised in a pretty poor family, so we didnt have all the fancy stuff. But yaknow what we did have? Recordings. This was one of them, along with tom and jerry and some hello kitty cartoons. Definitely sends me back.

I played a certain boss battle in the Cuphead DLC, and it launched me right back to memories as a kid watching this.

6:48 flipping the sandwich around to get more ants-per-bite was such a pro-gamer move.

Anteater Song Lyrics: Make him yell "Uncle" (Uncle, yeah!) And kick him in the snoot, (We'll kick him in the snoot!) For our brothers and our sisters, for our nephews and our cousins, and our aunts. Make him yell "Uncle" (Uncle, yeah!) And let him feel your boot, (We'll let him feel our boot!) For our brothers and our sisters, for our nephews and our cousins, and our aunts. We're not a-scared of anything at all, We're not a-scared of anything that's tall If we see him first! Make him yell "Uncle" (Uncle, yeah!) And sock him in the snoot, (We'll sock him in the snoot!) For our brothers and our sisters, for our nephews and our cousins, and our aunts. We'll make him yell "Uncle", yeah! Reprise: We made him yell “Uncle”, Uncle, yeah! With our brothers and our sisters and our cousins and our aunts, We made him yell “Uncle”, yeah!!!

I can't believe this is still around. I remember watching this as a kid on VHS when my parents were just a young married couple with very little. No bad memories, or anything like that. Just part of the circle of life....

I love how the ultimate goal was to make the anteater say "Uncle" 🤣

For an antagonist, the anteater in this cartoon is kinda cute looking when not being so menacing.

In 90s this was my favorite cartoons and it’s 2022 and the way that ant eater was walking when he first came out that bush still takes me out💀😭

I usually come back to watch this cartoon to get some motivation in my life

i remember seeing this on the Wizard of Oz and friends dvd as a child and it always gave me an uncomfortably visceral feeling of fear that i havent been able to describe in years.

Cuphead Delicious Last Course. Plain and simple. I always wanted this anteater as a boss and I got my wish.

"Calling all ants! Calling all ants! Run for your lives! Danger! Public ant enemy number one at large! Do you want to be his next victim? THEN SCRAM!"

My fav cartoon of all time. I looked up old ant eater cartoon and found it😂

I remember watching this when i was little and I FOUND IT still in my memory after so many years

Now I remember why this one bothered me as a kid: That anteater doesn't even look like a villain. I was used to villains looking, well, villainous. Also love how many Cuphead comments there are.

It's really nice of you for putting all these vintage color cartoons lately. Keep it up! I haven't seen the ones you've uploaded so far in YEARS. Really appreciate it!

3:26 WIZARD PHINEAS FLYNN: A-ha! See? Arthur is the Anteater.

Here from Cuphead DLC!

I love looking back to mid century cartoons… so we’ll done. Very enjoyable and soothing.. Today’s loud house, etc are not nearly as good as the past.

The anteater from the Cuphead DLC fight “Bootlegger Boogie” looks like the one shown here

*Cuphead DLC sent me here...*

This was my childhood Thank you for bringing it back

So, he's the anteater who was the inspiration to make the anteater character from Cuphead Delicious Last Course, huh? Ok.

As I'm watching this cartoon ,it makes me think where my mom's family was in 1940 - living in a migrant labor camp in California as dust bowl refugees

He probably would've had an easier time if he brought his hat snail buddy with him! /j

Anyone else come here after the cuphead dlc?

Wow this cartoon is already 80 years old

''One thing dis nose's knows is, youse cups are gonna be pushin' up roses!''.

May be one of the first cartoons I had ever seen, and probably hundreds of times as a kid

You know I really like the design and how he has 2 mouths

2:24 That’s basically the plan going against the Moonshine Mob…

“One thing dis nose knows is, youse cups gonna be pushin’ up roses!”

I looked for this cartoon for YEARS!!! I remember seeing this on TV when I was little! And I never knew the title!

3:17 One thing this nose knows is, youse cups are gonna be pushing up roses! -Moonshine Mob Anteater

This cartoon has so many ant puns. The Ant-Arctic Ice Co. RestaurANT. Ant Jemimah Pancake Flour. Anty doesn't live here anymore. And even the song the soldier ants sing. "Make 'em yell UNCLE! For our BROTHERS and our SISTERS and our NEPHEWS and our COUSINS and our ANTS."

Ever wanted to fight that anteater from a 1940s cartoon? You can in the Cuphead DLC. More or less.

This looks so much better than the copy we had when I was a kid! Thank you for posting.

As soon i saw the ant eater in the new cuphead dlc, it immediately reminded me of this short!!

6:22 XD It’s so funny how the queen’s snail started running like an actual horse! Good thing it escaped.

Cuphead looks like they brought the anteater back

I remembered seeing this cartoon when the king of cartoons played it in Pee Wee's playhouse. Brings back memories.

Reliving those childhood days in 2023😢

82 years and now this Anteater recieved a guest card to Smash Brothers... Sorry um....I meant Cuphead as a boss character.

Those cartoons are fabulous thanks for sharing these, such a good idea

This is lovely. Thank you very much, @Cult Cinema Classics. Blessings

Love that pancake mix 🤣👍👍🇺🇸

I had this with some disney cartoons on a vhs in the early 90s. being only 5 it was such a trip

This inspired the anteater boss from Cuphead, but also rumor Honeybottoms’ first phase

Is it a crime if I say I was cheering for the anteater in a while? Here we go! He seems like a real funny guy 🤣

This never gets old🤗👏👏👏👏🖤

Fun fact: more zookeepers are injured by giant anteaters than any other animal and their claws can cut through concrete.

Thank you for uploading. ❤

This was more than a terrible catastrophe in this episode as those ants became endangered by that anteater, especially when it finally caught them all into a sandwich, but they must've been really more than relieved when they were free eventually at the end. 🐜

After this incident (and and outfit change). The Anteater was able to live in harmony with the bugs, which gave us the third phase of the Moonshine Mob.

4:56 Pepper! 4:58 Salt! 5:00 Mustard! 5:03 Vinegar! 5:04 Charge!

A certain boss in cuphead reminded me of this short

I remember watching this on the 200 classic cartoons DVD BTW the ant eater the way he walked when he first appeared 😂

Anteater meets Anteater from Cuphead

I wonder if the Ant Eater in this inspired the Ant Eater in CUP-HEAD’S Delicious Last Course DLC?

So sweet.. I love it!

one decade later and i came back to this nostalgic piece of work. Ima be honest I remember this since dutch lane

Who would have thought that this doofus could fool a thousand players with a fake KNOCKOUT?

Thanks for sharing😊

Oh look it's the boss from Cuphead

Awesome animation, really inventive, action packed and colorful. And it almost looks like a level of cuphead. C'est du beau boulot !

I’ve been searching for this for such a long time. I thought it was just a weird distant memory

Top show very original BRILLIANT thank you very much

I love ants because in Bible Salamon says about that ! I love ants and I take so much care to them ! Really this movie shows their importance and works ! Please all are love ants !!! Thanks !!

*Looks at the anteater* *Looks at the anteater from Cuphead* Something feels odd

This looks very awesome

3:20 The Giant Anteater (Myrmecophaga Tridactyla)

I love old cartoons this song of the anteaters it is grate

Wish i still had the old vhs tape with this on it. Had the 3 little pigs, old macdonalds farm, and some other random cartoons i havent been able to find.

3:22- Making my way downtown like:

3:23 He walks like how i get out of bed

UNCLE

J'adooooorrrre ♥️

So sad to see such a flourishing monarchy government of ants fall into the corruption of making Moonshine for mobs. (Cuphead DLC)

Lol. Just the silly I needed today. 😍❤😍

4:20

I knew I recognized the ant eater in the cuphead dlc

Nostalgia ❤❤❤

6:27 ants decapered

Hard to understand and only french subtitles

Reminds me of the same animations and music as the movie Fantasia.

Cuphead fans watching this like:

For listen well, uncle, yeah!
