Thanks for the memories!

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

The Ployboy (1929) *** (out of 4) If you're looking for plot then it's best you stay away from this Mickey Mouse short, which has him working in the fields with his cow Clarabelle. She's refusing to work that well so Mickey ends up getting into some trouble. THE PLOYBOY is a pretty entertaining cartoon even though it contains pretty much zero story. It's basically a cute little film thanks in large part to the animation but there's also a nice little score that goes along with it as Mickey and Minnie both whistle a nice tune. There are some funny moments to be found including one sequence where Mickey gets fed up with Clarabelle licking him so he has to resort to a couple tricks.

This is an early Disney short featuring Mickey Mouse. There will be spoilers ahead:This is a collection of gags which fell asleep while searching for some sort of plot. The gags are good enough and the animation is nice enough that it doesn't really matter.Mickey is driving a plow being pulled by Horace Horsecollar. Minnie comes up playing a guitar and "singing" with Clarabelle Cow, who needs to be milked. Mickey starts milking her, only to get licked by Clarabelle, which he doesn't like at all. Twice this happens and twice Mickey retaliates.Then Mickey kisses Minnie, which she likes about as much as Mickey liked being licked by his cow. Minnie retaliates and storms off, which amuses both Clarabelle and Horace and angers Mickey. That's when the fun begins. Horace has a close encounter with a bee and charges off, dragging Mickey and the plow behind him. The upshot ultimately ruins the pig's whole day.This short is available on the Mickey Mouse in Black and White, Volume Two Disney Treasures DVD set and is worth tracking down. Recommended.

I like the early cartoons of Mickey Mouse. Even though they are very crude by today's standards, there is a certain unmistakable charm about them that I just love. However, with this being said, I finally found a Mickey cartoon that just isn't up to snuff because it has virtually no plot--though it is still enjoyable.Mickey is doing chores on the farm. This is THE plot. However, some of the things he does are milk Clarabelle (in her first cartoon), plow the fields with Clarence (in his first cartoon) and give Minnie a huge kiss--for which he pays dearly. The entire cartoon is set to music, which is timed very well with the action occurring on screen. Additionally, you get to hear Minnie sing--and it's painful indeed! Overall, watchable but somewhat pointless. Watch it if you are a big fan, otherwise try to find one with a bit more plot.

A Walt Disney MICKEY MOUSE Cartoon.THE PLOWBOY who should be attending more to his chores and less to trying to lip lock with his girlfriend is none other than Mickey Mouse.This very early black & white Mouse cartoon has virtually no plot, but is driven almost entirely by the soundtrack. In his first screen appearance, Horace Horsecollar pulls the plow, but also displays a rather unhealthy interest in Miss Minnie. Artist Ub Iwerks makes poor Clarabelle Cow and her vast udder the subject of more of his favorite appendage jokes.Walt Disney (1901-1966) was always intrigued by drawings. As a lad in Marceline, Missouri, he sketched farm animals on scraps of paper; later, as an ambulance driver in France during the First World War, he drew figures on the sides of his vehicle. Back in Kansas City, along with artist Ub Iwerks, Walt developed a primitive animation studio that provided animated commercials and tiny cartoons for the local movie theaters. Always the innovator, his ALICE IN CARTOONLAND series broke ground in placing a live figure in a cartoon universe. Business reversals sent Disney & Iwerks to Hollywood in 1923, where Walt's older brother Roy became his lifelong business manager & counselor. When a mildly successful series with Oswald The Lucky Rabbit was snatched away by the distributor, the character of Mickey Mouse sprung into Walt's imagination, ensuring Disney's immortality. The happy arrival of sound technology made Mickey's screen debut, STEAMBOAT WILLIE (1928), a tremendous audience success with its use of synchronized music. The SILLY SYMPHONIES soon appeared, and Walt's growing crew of marvelously talented animators were quickly conquering new territory with full color, illusions of depth and radical advancements in personality development, an arena in which Walt's genius was unbeatable. Mickey's feisty, naughty behavior had captured millions of fans, but he was soon to be joined by other animated companions: temperamental Donald Duck, intellectually-challenged Goofy and energetic Pluto. All this was in preparation for Walt's grandest dream - feature length animated films. Against a blizzard of doomsayers, Walt persevered and over the next decades delighted children of all ages with the adventures of Snow White, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Bambi & Peter Pan. Walt never forgot that his fortunes were all started by a mouse, or that simplicity of message and lots of hard work will always pay off.
