Cartoon.

I say ''masculinist'' rather than ''male'' because the view of male behavior promulgated by hard-core evolutionary psychologists is as narrow and inflexible as their view of womanhood is.

I'm not interested in explaining to men what they really want or how they should behave. If a fellow chooses to tell himself that his yen for the fetching young assistant in his office and his concomitant disgruntlement with his aging wife make perfect Darwinian sense, who am I to argue with him? I'm only proposing here that the hard-core evolutionary psychologists have got a lot about women wrong -- about some of us, anyway -- and that women want more and deserve better than the cartoon Olive Oyl handed down for popular consumption.

The cardinal premises of evolutionary psychology of interest to this discussion are as follows: 1. Men are more promiscuous and less sexually reserved than women are. 2. Women are inherently more interested in a stable relationship than men are.

a Bugs Bunny movie similar to Cat in the Hat & The Gringe, Popeye portrayed by Michael Myers and Jim Carey and Robin Williams respectively. Even a movie like the Flinstones falls into that category of cartoons being brought to life in the big screen.

Which current Hollywood actor would be perfect to the Bugs Bunny role? Keep in mind his voice and his look .
Robin Williams was brilliant as Popeye, John Goodman was good as Fred Flinstone, and both Carey and Myers were both good in their own Dr Seus movies.

Does anyone else remember these classic Christmas (or similar) cartoons?

Santa's Surprise
Christmas comes but once a year
Somewhere in Dreamland

and similar cartoons, like Popeye, Betty Boop, Little Lulu?

I think they were made in the 40's or 50's originally, but I grew up watching them because we had some old tapes. I still pull them out every year. You can't beat the quality of the old cartoons... they have something wonderful that the more modern ones just don't have!
on the contrary, cajohnson667, I'm only 19!

And its awesome that I'm not the only one who loves 'Somewhere in Dreamland'. Its just a good wholesome cartoon and Warner Bros were not racist... *grumbles at stupid politically correct paranoia*

my grandpa has some kind of anchor type thing goin on. and i know this is a cartoon but so did popeye the sailor man

The cartoon was set up to look very similar to black and white mickey mouse cartoons. And this main character was also a mouse. I think the animations were shown on the website only. The backing music tracks were like 20-30's period music. And the character's name was the name of the cartoon. There were several episodes. The story lines included his girlfriend too, and a Bluto like rival. I think the name began with an S and ended with an O, but I could be totally wrong. I know I have not given very much to work with here, but This is driving me insane.

Does anybody remeber the old cartoons of Donald Duck where he had three "nephwes", Huey, duey, and luey? I remeber he had Daisy his girl friend babysit sometimes, but they mostley stayed with him, where did they come from? Where is this "brother" or "sister" The nephwes came from? or where they Daisey's brother or sisters? Also, if Goofey is a dog, (wich I am guessing he is), how come Pluto (mickey mouses dog) can't stand and talk either? Also do you remeber the cartoon Poeype? He had a baby named "sweet pea" whose was that? Every one watched him, and bluto, still tryed to get Olive oil, and poeypye still tryed to date her too, (what a slut) and the baby was seen bounceing back and forth, weird...

This cartoon featured a gag in which the sailor man makes a muscle, then a little arm came out of the muscle, and it made a muscle. Does anyone know the title of the picture and what year it was made?

I'm trying to watch "Heavy Metal" on my PS2 and when I put the disc in, it just sits there. Won't even spin. I tried "Heavy Metal 2000" and "Me, Myself, and Irene" and those didn't work either, so I thought my PS2 was finally taking a sh*t, but then I put in this "Popeye" DVD (the old cartoon) and it worked fine. So did "Escape from New York." So what's up with my PS2?
The discs are perfectly fine. No scratches, smudges, dirt, or anything. And I thought maybe it was the parental control thing but "Escape from New York" is rated R and it plays fine.

Between the Vauxhall Car Logo and Popeyes Girlfriend Olive Oyl?

It is only olives face I can see in the logo

ho? seems she was playing popeye and bluto.
i was watching the cartoon last night and she was fixing to marry bluto. how can you say she didn't like him?

The cartoon itself is titled simply 'Raggedy Ann and Raggedy Andy' and is a 17 minute short cartoon by Dave Fleischer. I keep getting lead to a Popeye anthology and its possible it was put on there but I don't want to shell out more than 50 dollars for a dvd set I won't even watch. =( And if it helps any, it was made in 1941. I don't ask for a free view online. I would certainly pay. Anything would be helpful.

I'm a gymnast so one day while I was stretching I heard behind me someone (I know his name is Emo but we don't know each other personally, anyway we've never spoken to each other) to tell somebody: "hey doesn't she remind you of Olive Oyl from Popeye the sailor cartoon?
I thought they were talking about me, so I turned to them. The first guy - Emo asked me about my name, I told them it's Meggie, but the other guy didn't hear it rights and said "Peggie?!" and started to laugh. I got annoyed (and also blushed with my stupid shyness) and said loudly "My name is Meggie." then the first guy said "sorry he didn't heard it right.because he's dull". Anyway I went on my training.
Then on other day I went to the gym I heard "Hey, Olive". It was the first guy - Emo, but in that moment I was with my back to him so I decided not to turn round to him and not to say anything. It didn't sound like mockery, but normally and simple.
Also today while I was doing my routine on the beam, other guy asked Emo to make a clip of his high bar routine so Emo stood next to the beam I was practicing on. He asked me if he was standing in my way (he asked me simply, without laughing ot anything else) but I said no. Actually the true answer was yes but I didn't own up. I continued doing my exercise but as I burned with shame (because I wasn't calm to concentrate and fell few times off the beam) I just sat on the ground and took some rest.

I really don't understand. Do you think he had had any thoughts or intentions of me buy saying that about Olive Oyl?
What would you think if you were me and you were compared to Olive Oyl?

cartoon question give me your opinion on the following
did you like
Mighty Mouse or Under Dog better? Why?

Quick Draw McGraw or Yosemite Sam better? Why?

Huckleberry Hound or Wil E Coyote better? Why?

Betty Boop or Olive Oyl better? Why?

Felix the Cat or Sylvester better? Why?

Woody Wood Pecker or Tweety better? Why?

Anyone notice that in many cartoons you can actually understand swear words in the muttering etc.

The only cartoon I can think of is Popeye, but there are quite a few that will have a few swear words in it. But Popeye has at least one swear word in just about every toon written for him.

Between him and Brutus I am sure Sweet Pee will turn out pretty raunchy.
In the 443.5 hours of children's programming analyzed by the PTC,
they found

595 incidents of disruptive, disrespectful or otherwise problematic attitudes and behaviors

275 incidents of sexual content

so please don't tell me there are none.

ok. details might be a little vague but here goes. im trying to find a halloween cartoon movie thing that use to show on tv like in the 90's or something. i was like 8 or somthing. but it was about a boy who was sick (i think) and he was taken away by some character (i forgot) and he traveled places with that character. and i think the ending was when he came back and it was morning and his mom came in. i think his name was prolly tim or timmy. im not sure bout the name though. anyone know????

I would like to know the name and a website for the magic, disappearing little dog that was on the Popeye cartoons I think. It’s a cute little dog that would disappear and reappear. it's from and old cartoon from the 50's maybe. I'm not exactly sure which cartoon it was in.

how many of you actually think that cartoons today are real cartoons? not BS thats just simply been drawn and put on tv? come on im a whole 15 i know what cartoons should be! Tom and jerry, popeye, felix the cat, mickey, donald duck, goofy, u know that dang, i really whant to know who thinks that the tv kids watch is really a real cartoon?!?!?!?!?

I'm not sure that anyone will know this. I don't know why I've been thinking of this lately, but there is a cartoon from my childhood I used to love that I want to find. It's animated in this spindly, overly-detailed style, but I can't recall the name. Circa 1985-6?
The plot, as I remember, is that there is a witch who stumbles across three children, dressed for Halloween as a monster, a ghost, and something else. She decides to grant them their Halloween wish and turn them into their costumes for real. Havoc ensued. I think it ends with the witch being confronted by the parents of all the children in town, She convinces them that she did what she did, not out of malice, but a love of Halloween. She encourages all the adults to remember their love of this season, and they eventually do. Then she grants them their Halloween wish, and turns all the adults into their favorite Halloween characters, including a Wolfman, Frankenstein, and more ghosts. Then they all party.
I know there is an obscure pop-culture vulture out there somewhere that can help me out here! And you will be crowned King/Queen of the Obscure 80's Movies.

Who was more vicious? When did Wimpey come along? Sea Hag, name the weird "freak" in the cartoon...Are Popeye and Olyve Oyle married? If not, explain Swee'pea! Get everything right, you win!

What I am saying is why spinach? why not carrot, or tomato?
Also, why he is a sailor? Is Bluto also a sailor? There is a girl in the cartoon as well. I forgot her name, Is she also a sailor?The story about them seldom occurs in a ship, am I right? Why not cowboy? I simply can't understand.
