Children, you must keep in mind the era this was made. Film was new, and adults were the main assumed audience for all theatrical content - including cartoons. Cartoons didn't get relegated to "children's fare" specifically until the coming of television, when things like cartoons and puppet shows were put on what were considered dead-time slots, which became children's viewing ghettos (similar to weekday afternoons being "for" soap operas, and weekday mornings being mostly "for" game shows.) The Hayes Code didn't come along until, what, 1930? And pretty much killed off the racier early cartoon characters (Betty Boop in particular suffered from being tamed down.) From that point on, all theatrical releases had to conform to what are now considered "family-friendly" standards (at least as far as that era was concerned) ... the invention of ratings in 1968 freed creators to once again offer adult fare while ignoring the hell out of children - though in North America, the damage to cartoons was already done .. they had been firmly relegated to stupid, silly, cheaply produced kid's fare in the public mind, despite the fact that the best and most popular Saturday Morning fare - old Looney Tunes/Merrie Melodies, for instance - were themselves old theatrical cartoons (before the chop shops got ahold of them in the late 80s onward, cutting up some cartoons so badly, they became utterly unitelligible, for to "keep up" with "modern sensibilities". Others simply disappeared from the roster.) When this cartoon was made, theatres did not have "showtimes". They would simply start running the reels from opening to closing, and patrons would come and go as they pleased. This is the origin of "This is where we came in" .. people weren't fussed walking into a movie halfway through, and would simply sit through the newsreels, serials, cartoons, and shorts until the feature came back around again. And in 1919, people were still reeling from a devastating world war the likes no one had seen before. Dark times breed dark humour.
Felix was the first real 'cartoon character' made, and they endorsed the living crap out of him. The sound came along and it just so happened that Walt D. decided to put sound in his damn cartoon, and it fit perfectly. Wheres with Felix, felix was not made to have sound, it was mostly visual effects. Then came Betty Boop, Popeye, etc. Micky Mouse just happened to gain more publicity than the others. Imagine a world where instead of DisneyWorld, we would have MessmerWorld.
I can't imagine how amazing this must've been at the time. Think about it, most people who watched this when it came out probably never seen animation, let alone animation like this. I can imagine a grown man in the theater in 1919 yelling "The comics are moving!"
Fun Fact: Pat Sullivan thought this cartoon was going to fail. Thinking this would be a one and done thing, he created the ending we know and “love” we have today.
Didn't expect that kind of ending.. Big applause to the animator that made this. Its 1919, idk how they pull this masterpiece. Felix the cat is the original! Mickey, looney tunes come after felix the cat. Legend.
"After surviving the Feline Follies, Felix goes home to visit his current lover, Miss Kitty. While he was away, she gave birth to many beautiful kittens. How wonderful! Unable to bear the responsibility, Felix rushes to the nearest gas plant to end his life. This is canon. Look it up." -Felix the Cat's arcade ending on Vargskelethor's Hardcore Friday Super Metal Almost Criminally Violent Ultra Swedish Meatball Royal Rumble MASSACRE!
I thought this was a bit boring until the end, which was great. That was amazing that the cartoonist was allowed to have Felix run away from his bastard children and then kill himself with gas. It was like it had been taken out of an "Itchy and Scratchy" cartoon.
The oldest cartoon character of all time killed himself in his debut cartoon? Damn that's heavy, cartoons these days don't normally do that especially in such a morbid way.
Do anyone know what is НЕТ? If you dont, НЕТ is a russian word who means NO. When is showing you to select ДА, НЕТ this asking you do you whant to continue. ДА is mean YES. Just for information :) I live near to Russia.
@@Detoox21 But what you don't know,is that choosing "het" in a bootleg russian game will sometimes show you a very disturbing game over screen. Just search for "Felix the cat game over" and you'll know what I mean.
Early animated cartoons were an absolute trip. This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen and I love all the goofy little details. The jerkass mice are adorable. Most impressive to me is the realistic cat “scamper” animation. Man that’s good stuff.
Felix just got fired just found out He had 15 kids and he's going to have to provide for them so he took the easy way out ... if a animated film like this was made today it would be considered groundbreaking and eye opening drama about life and death
for people who dont understand the ending: he commited suicide by running to the nearest gasworks and inhaling coal gas in reaction to seeing the kittens the female cat had and felix wasnt the father.
This cartoon came out just six years after the sinking of the Titanic. I have no idea why I thought of that specifically, but it really hammers home how old this is. Like... Wow.
I really hope we get more of Felix The Cat. We've recently got a comic. But not a new show or movie. It's sad to see how we barley get any Felix content nowadays. He needs to make a comeback
Amazing that this character is the first character that inspired other characters, like Oswald and Mickey. The creators probably would not realise it will happen while making this in the first place :)
Felix the cat was the first cartoon to ever be on tv. That's why it's silent and that's why the film is the way it is. I am happy that they kept this film alive and around. Now adays most of the first ever tv shows are destroyed by non care and time. I'm glad they kept it for so long
Well, what they used was a statue of Felix for to broadcast across a room, when they were developing TV technology. And cartoons this old were meant for general theatre release, before ratings, before the Hayes code, etc, when no one really thought of children as an "audience" or really worth worrying about too much (it was up to parents whether they could go to movies or not, after all.) While people might be more careful about content children see nowadays, they're still basically a side-issue, usually given cheap, low-rent entertainment (because kids are stupid and will watch any cartoon or puppet crap ... so the general belief goes.)
Remember Children, Although Oslwald came before Mickey, he was not the first character in the animation that entertained, talked and caressed with the people.
you’ve been mistaken, this kitty ends up intentionally inhaling coal gas after finding out that his love interest had a litter with another cat, not to mention he got kicked out of his house
ManiacX1999 yea, that's why back then you would see cartoon characters die, drink alcohol, smoke, shoot guns, commit suicide, and make sexual references.
Daniel Z Then how did they... Wait, animators thought children were a bigger audience than adults, and probably a better one considering that it wouldn't be hard to entertain a child compared to an adult. So then why is animation today considered (ad arguably is) mostly for children? Has everyone just forgotten it's roots?
ManiacX1999 It's just because later they realized they had better success with a younger audience then it slowly changed into cartoons are mostly considered for children. still, even today there are references or innuendos that only adults will get and not children. that way some adults can also enjoy some aspects of a cartoon even it's still for kids.
I love seeing that in an ordinary home the stove was wood burning, an average woman could be expected to wear a long skirt and have her hair in a bun, and other details that show the customs of the period - not to mention the verbiage! This was great.
