The term coined by Chuck Jones . But that's essentially what television was. But give it some amount of appreciation for occaision funny images. As for Chuck Jones he had no business with that attitude considering what he did with Tom and Jerry

I understand that Paramount holds the Copyright. How does Melange Puctures, LLC enter the scene?

@@RayPointerChannel since Republic Pictures label acquired the rights for NTA (National Telefilm Associates) libraries including U.M.&M. TV Corporation who purchased most of the pre-October 1950 Paramount Cartoons and short subjects library which includes Fleischer Studios to Famous Studios (later renamed in late 50s as Paramount Cartoon Studios), and Mr. Bug Goes to Town is the only Paramount (and Fleischer's) animated movie retains the copyright (except for Gulliver's Travels (1939 film) is currently in Public Domain).

@@RayPointerChannel additionally, they renamed Republic Pictures (old label) to Melange Pictures, LLC is due to acquisition of Spelling Entertainment and later Viacom (now as Paramount Global, pending merged with Skydance media as of this moment). Eventually, the Republic Pictures brand later revived by Paramount Global since last year to produce and distribute their latest films and it was released and distributed by Paramount Global Content Distribution.

Yes.

The description lists the 2 Boop cartoons in here. The Popeye one is "The Spinach Roadster"

Some of them are from House Cleaning Blues, Pudgy the Watchman, and The Spinach Roadster.

The use of the tern, Industrial Espionage is a bit histrionic and concluded by contemporary realizations. Everyone who worked in the Animation industry passed what they learned by working at various studios. While it can be concluded that Disney's luring of Fleischer's trained people to make use of their learned techniques, Disney took them further. But Disney was an unstable studio with layoffs. So it was natural that laid off Animatos took the knowledge from Disney and brought it to others studios. This is how the medium evolved. Thus was no conspiracy or deliborate effort to steal technology as was the case with people like Edison, Armstrong, or DeForest. Animation was a simpler and less sophisticated business. So this conclusion about deliberate Indutrual zespionatecis a gross overstatement. It didn't hsppen.

I wonder about the same thing when I first saw these 65 years ago. Look for my appearances on Stu's Show where I tell this story.

This is the way they aired. Take it from me. I saw these. NBC had rights to the Columbia theatricals, and continued running them during KING LEONARDO, which replaced RUFF N' REDDY in 1960.

@@RayPointerChannel I believe you. It seems that the only H-B show that ended with the Screen Gems "Torch Lady" was "The Huckleberry Hound Show." When Screen Gems placed a ending tag again on a H-B product, it was 1963, when the "dancing sticks" logo started to appear on a number of H-B shows from 1963-1965 (1963-1966 in Canada.) Also notably missing from the prints was host Jimmy Blaine, who opened the 1957-1960 airings. Later airings post-1961-1964 were hosted by Captain Bob Cottle, and those episodes had a NBC "camera" closing, plus the 1962 "NBC Laramie Peacock" opening. It has been said by blogger Don Yowp at the "Yowp/Tralfaz" web sites that the theatrical releases of "Loopy De Loop" did not have a Columbia "Torch Lady" opening, either. Thanks for all of the info. This is a very historical TV series for H-B fans who have never seen a complete "Ruff N' Reddy" half-hour program.

How so? The Kids in the Shoe, or this music video?

It was not " cut down." The print was a challenge already with some spliced sections. An amounts of sophisticated editing was necessary to overcome this flaw. However, if someone has a perfect print of this 94 year old cartoon, I would gladly accept ot since was released 10 years ago.

It is suggested in the book where Kansas was described as "without color." The movie has so overshadowed the original book that generations have never read it, let alone realized that it was a book, even thought the prologue to the movie makes reference to it.

Yes.

Cuphead d8d this.

Yea, but not very well… Can you tell me the exact shorts used in this video? I think I’ll be able to one day do better….

HI! I will be out of commission for two weeks since I am preparing for appearance on the west coast My suggestion for getting my book would I ld be to go to the McFatland Books website. As for the DVD, they can be ordered through Amazon or my website, inkwellimagesink.com. But I'd suggest that you order the DVD after July 30th. Thanks for asking.

There are more. The entire Planet Pirates chapters are posted along with the second story. Also the outer space adventure has been synced to the Colpix record issue that used the origina 1/4" voice recordings . Look for Ruff Freddy's Adventures in Outer Space.

The originals have not been seen in 90 years. I had to reconstruct the titles to eliminate the Barker Bill Terrytoons TV titles, which cut the openings. So where do you suppose the originals exist? I'll let you know if you are warm.

​@RayPointerChannel Steve Stanchfield actually owns a 35mm print with this short's original titles.

I had other important cartoons that illustrate the story more strongly, but KZfaq blocked the first post, and I had to remove those cartoons. They were SEEIN' RED, WHITE, AND, BLUE, THE BLITZ WOLF, MESS PRODUCTION, and RATION FOR THE DURATION. Interestingly, I have noted that these titles are posted on KZfaq and are not blocked for Copyright Infringement. I stuck my neck out to see what might be flagged and found out. This is another example of the double standard on KZfaq and their inconsistency in policing its content. I went through a similar issue last week with the posting of TV OR NOT TV. After four attempts I finally got a version that would not be blocked. Again, others use the same footage I am using and are not flagged. The difference is in how I am using it. I also do some image sharpening and color correction as well. So, thank you for appreciating this. I'll be posting Part 2 soon.

Thanks!

That's because the backgrounds were Model sets. So you are seeing real planar separation as you would in real life.

Thank you! And "Hi," from Michigan! If you are a Fleischer Fan, then you may be interested in my book, kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qJd0jZqisa65Y58.html

Glad you are enjoying them. Spread the word! Thanks!

Of note, the Fox and Crow and Lil' Abner cartoons were produced under Dave Fleischer after his resignation from Fleischer Studios in 1941.

Revising this early series, I am making a lot of interesting discoveries about just what a struggle is was for them to get started in television. Originally, they were only offered $2700 to produce the first 13 episodes. That's $675 for each four minute segment, to $168.75 per minute compared to the $60,000 they had to produce theatrical cartoons, which cost over $8,000 per minute. Their first chapters of the Munimula adventure was shot on 16mm film. It appears that there had been some tampering with the original film elements when the series went into syndication because sections are out of synchronization. There is also evidence of damage where tape splices can be seen in at least three areas. Also there are jumps in scene cult and within the scenes themselves. The soundtracks seem to be on a separate roll since the jumps in picture do not coincide with splice thumps on the soundtrack. This may also explain the drifting of the synchronization since there may have been patched in footage replacing damaged footage the may not have been properly lined up. This can explain why some scenes are four to six frames out off. One scene was actually off by 24 frames, or one second! This has been an experiment in trying to adjust color and exposure balances from mediocre transfers made 40 years ago before the existence of film scanning. With the sudden interest in Hanna-Barbera history, many may feel that the RUFF AND REDDY episodes should be candidates for restoration, with specific attention to the first 13, which were the start of the Hanna-Barbera empire.

This was the origin of what Cuphead did. But they had computer aids where Fleisher Studios shot the cell in front of a miniature set that photographer real space.

Why do you ask?

This was produced before the phrase was associated with Betty.

@@thishandleistaken425 Not quite. "Boop Oop A Doop" was a catch phrase that was in common use long before it was associated with Helen Kane and the Betty Boop character. It was used for the ending of the Oswald the Rabbit cartoons from this period as well. Unless a catch phrase is registered as a type of "trademark," no one has exclusivity to it. In the case of "Yabba Dabba Do," this is a trademark, exclusive to Fred Flintstone and the Hanna-Barbera properties thanks to the imagination of Allan Reed who originated it.

Snow White and Gulliver's Travels are not the "damsel in distress to be saved by the hero. Not the same formula. Sleeping Beauty is more so.

I have all of the episodes of the Muni-Mula story. You can search on KZfaq but you might only find the episodes with the Boomerang Watermark. The film sources need restoration. I have made a lot of adjustments in exposure, color correction, and fixed some image jumps caused by slopping assembly of the 16mm A/B Rolls that are not on other versions. Also, I have restored the flute intros to the spinning titles that are missing on all other versions which come from the syndication prints. What you are seeing is how they were presented when they originally aired on NBC. Because of the work I have done on these, my Watermark is there.

​@@RayPointerChannel damn "I have restored the flute intros to the spinning titles that are missing on all other versions" the only syndication alteration I was aware of is that all R&R openings include the 1957 version, even those that were meant to have the 1959 opening but, for some reason, weren't. perhaps we could trade? i have some unwatermarked Pixie and Dixie cartoons unrestored from a Spanish DVD + a restored Pixie and Dixie cartoon I attempted to remove the screenbug from back in July (could use fixing but I could still give to you anyway) as of typing i also am working on a color-corrected + logo free Quick Draw McGraw (uncomplete and who tf knows when at this point) if it hasn't been said already i'd love to have some non-TV rips of ruff and reddy. and you don't even have to send your edited copies (credits will still be given to you + i don't plan on re-uploading them on YT; that's scummy)​

@@tiroloco2459I understand that there may be some work on RUFF N' REDDY planned. The Boomerang sources are mediocre and come from old video transfers of 16mm prints that are not color and exposure corrected. But this is a start.

​@@RayPointerChannel i thought the boomerang copies came from laserdiscs of some sort "I understand that there may be some work on RUFF N' REDDY planned" for DVD??

IMAGINATION. This was produced when Dave Fleischer became the Producer at Screen Gems Studio from 1942-1944. It was a short remake of RAGGEDY ANN AND ANDY, produced while he was in charge of production at Fleischer Studios in 1940.

Yes. However, no one in recent years has duplicated the original timing and fluidity. The closest came in the Animation of Betty Boop in Roger Rabbit, which mastered it and took it t I a higher level.

Mae Questel Reprised Her Role as The Voice of Betty Boop , Both Mae & Betty " STILL GOT IT ". 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍​@@RayPointerChannel

Since I saw the original 1957-1960 first run, I recreated it. That is how it really looked. And yes I have all of the following episodes. Want more?

@@RayPointerChannel are the rest logoless? even then yes i am in a desperate need for more 😭
