Thank you! I'm so glad you liked it.
I had a lot of fun writing a new article for
@cartoonbrew.bsky.social about cartoon beavers throughout animation history, tying in with the release of Pixar's HOPPERS! Take a look for some great clips and history.
For our latest Cartoon Study, @nonsenseisland.bsky.social chews through animation history to spotlight some of the medium’s most memorable beavers, from Golden Age oddities to 'The Angry Beavers,' for the release of Pixar’s 'Hoppers.'

The bigger issue with adapting Seuss is, of course, that he was such a singular talent with such a unique point of view that he's hard to imitate. Lots of the good adaptations were made while he was alive and could contribute ideas, lyrics, sketches, etc.
Dr. Seuss adaptations frequently struggle with expanding short stories to feature-length. I always thought a good candidate to adapt would be I HAD TROUBLE IN GETTING TO SOLLA SOLLEW, since it has a journey structure, so we could encounter various Seuss creations along the way.
Dr. Seuss self-portrait. I could stare at his scratchy line-work all day.
Really cool scribbly gestures by Spanish artist Alejandro Sirio.
Earl Hines is definitely one you don't hear about as much these days... I think even I only know a couple of his songs!
Also, caricature I did a while back of Count and Duke...
I love this!!
Good taste! I love THE GIRL CAN'T HELP IT... directed by Looney Tunes animator Frank Tashlin.
If you love Red's singing voice as much as I do, you'll enjoy seeing Imogene in person, singing with Ray McKinley's band:
In honor of Tex Avery's birthday, here's a classic scene from Tex's SWING-SHIFT CINDERELLA (1945), with the beautiful Red animated by Preston Blair and voiced by Imogene Lynn.
Born today in 1908 - the brilliant Tex Avery.
Great moment from WHAT'S NEW PUSSYCAT? (1965).
Bugs Bunny's friends.
Crazy gag here.
From 1931's SHIPWRECK, by Walter Lantz & Bill Nolan.
Clip I'd never seen of Merle Oberon, star of 1939's WUTHERING HEIGHTS, thanking the Chinese allies in WWII. From STAGE DOOR CANTEEN (1943).
I can't get enough of Emery Hawkins' animation. The squishy fluidity of his movements just bursts with personality.
I always enjoy it when Woody Woodpecker sings in an operatic voice.
I love the amount of skill and creativity that went into this 1939 Hungarian stop-motion advertisement for lightbulbs.
INCANDESCENT LOVE by Gyula Macskássy & György Szénásy.
RIP Enid Denbo Wizig, assistant animator and ink & paint artist on the classic Looney Tunes cartoons of the 1940s under Chuck Jones. She was deaf since childhood, but became an expert lip-reader and wrote about her inspiring life and career in the book "I Never Asked Why Me?"
Happy 93rd birthday to Kim Novak.
Hey guys! Check out my new article for @cartoonbrew.bsky.social about the times when Tom & Jerry actually spoke! Lots of history and great clips. www.cartoonbrew.com/cartoon-stud...
Tom & Jerry first appeared on February 10, 1940, in the Oscar-nominated 'Puss Gets the Boot,' and we’re celebrating the cat-and-mouse duo’s 86th birthday with our 16 favorite times the typically mute duo spoke.

Better than all the Super Bowl commercials combined.
100 years ago today, legendary cartoonist George Herriman runs out of ink in a classic KRAZY KAT strip, printed February 7, 1926.
Glad to help!
Cool psychedelic painting by Heinz Edelmann, character designer and art director on YELLOW SUBMARINE.
