The chaotic nature of the scenes with a bunch of characters and everybody talking and Popeye mumbling and occasionally laughing and Olive saying, "OH!" and all the goofy slapstick humor is right out of the 1930s black and white Popeye cartoons. They actually achieved that very well. My grandmother took me to see this in the theater during its original release. She was absolutely stunned that live actors could be as goofy as cartoon characters.

@mattneylon1321 2 ай бұрын

Exactly. This movie is brilliant because it nails the cartoons perfectly. When Jay says he doesn’t expect a Popeye movie to be mumble talking and brown drab shacks, what is he expecting and why? Those cartoons were all mumbling characters in a town of beaten up drab shacks. It’s perfect.

Popeye is great, but I think Jay was more trying to say that nobody cares about Popeye or thinks about popeye. Nobody is out there screaming that a bad Popeye video game ruined their childhood. This contrasts with a cynical marketing mascot like Scooby Doo, which people think about and get mad about all the time. Even though in 50 years and like 100 different series and movies, there's only like a cumulative 10 hours of Scooby Doo content that's actually good. People like Popeye but don't care. People hate Scooby doo, and care a lot.

Pretty much everything that Jay says against this movie underlines not only why I loved this movie as a little kid but why I still love it today.

Look at it this way: They supposedly shot footage of Olive Oil sitting on a bed and repeatedly saying things like "He's large" and "He's Virile" before they had decided those were going to be lyrics in a song.

If you ever find yourself in Malta, it's a decent way to spend an afternoon, although unless you're a hardcore fan (which Rich might be lol) it's probably not worth travelling abroad solely to visit it.

Massive cartoon nerd here, the constant character mumbling over each other/improv seems to be like a callback to the original Fleschier shorts of the 30s and early 40s where the voice actors didn’t necessarily have a script or boards of the cartoon but recorded their lines while watching it. This led to a lot of scenes of the characters talking over each other while their mouths weren’t lip-synced.

Spot-on! The screenwriter, Jules Feiffer, hated the Fleischer cartoons but loved the E.C. Segar comic strip. That's why we have the presence of so many characters you never saw in the Fleischer cartoons. The producers and director, however, very wisely, I think, saw this as an opportunity to combine both what was lovable from the cartoons (the muttering and constant movement) and what was lovable from the comic strips (the Dickensian characters, plotting, and lower-middle class setting)

As a Brazilian I can confirm that. SOME of the reason is that making our own cartoons was out of the question since its very expensive and old and out of style cartoons were cheaper to license so Brazilian TVs bought these cartoon licenses for cheap and re-ran them over and over again. Thats why we are obsessed with Woody Woodpecker, a forgotten cartoon that lost to Loney toons even back then.
