V Trinadtsatom Chasu Nochi

From what I can tell, this is some clip from a Russian fantasy musical film that has something to do with the folktales of the witch Baba Yaga. Or maybe not…hell I don’t know, but it is quite groovy and strange at the same time.



Ludwig Von Drake - The Spectrum Song

“Yellow, green, red, blue blue blue, red, purple, green, yellow, orange, red red, red, yellow, green, red, blue blue blue, red, purple, green, yellow, orange, red red.”



Mel Brooks - The Critic

No, not Jay Sherman but the very first film by Mel Brooks. This animated short is from 1963 which is five years before he would go on to do the first version of The Producers.



Marine Boy - The Green Monster

This cartoon was apparently one of the very first anime shows to be imported from Japan to the U.S. and dubbed into English. He could breathe underwater because of his special chewing gum….wtf?!?!



Captain America - The Red Skull Lives

yuck “When Captain America throws his mighty shield, all those who chose oppose his shield must yield. If he’s lead to a fight and a duel is due, then the red and white and the blue’ll come through. When Captain America throws his mighty shield.”



The Bear That Wasn’t

Why isn't this on the Cartoon Network? This guy isn’t really a man. He’s actually a bear instead, despite whatever label the industrialized world might want to slap onto him. It is vintage Chuck Jones work.



The Cube

zomg, so trapped Jim Henson made this for NBC in 1969 and it soon became something of a TV legend. It was widely traded back in the days of tape copying but thanks to the miracle of internet video it now is more readily accessible.



Marvin Digs

I can dig it Here’s a forgotten gem from animation legend Ralph Bakshi which was produced by Parmount’s animation division toward the end of it’s existence in 1967.
