Van Beuren Aesop's Fables Cartoon - Circus Capers (1930)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
- One of at least two 1930 Aesop's Fables cartoons that featured a male-and-female couple of mice. The duo's resemblance to Walt Disney's Mickey and Minnie Mouse was too close for comfort, which prompted Disney to take legal action against the Van Beuren Studio.
I love the way these Van Beuren cartoons look! Even amongst their extremely similar looking contemporaries, these cartoons look really unique. Their line weight is scraggly and fun; spontaneous and full of vitality. And every drawing is very diverse and interesting on its own. These characters aren't just completely round and consistent through out, they've got curved and sharp forms and even go off model. I also don't know how to explain this, but they've also got a bit of anatomy to them; they're not just simple blobs of rubber. Super cool.
You just nailed my thoughts on the studio (mainly foster era) tbh
The artists in question were trained in the arts and could’ve rivaled Fleischer if they really wanted! But they didn’t, instead choosing to do well, the stuff they did
I admit, Burt Gillett was better in terms of art but Foster was better in gags and overall weirdness
For those of you who are interested, the two mice are called Milton and Rita (Also known earlier as "Mary". But I personally prefer her second name, Rita).
Also, how did Milton get so fat at the end of the cartoon?
Was he so depressed that he downed a dozen pints of Ben &Jerry's before he left Rita's train car?
Those two mice sure look familiar...
Me: Mom can I have Mickey Mouse?
Mom: We have Mickey Mouse at home.

Hey Van Beuren was awsome!
@@brickrowdyruff9419 I agree, it was awesome, with such series like Cubby Bear & Rainbow Parade. Shame that the company closed in 1936 due to Disney becoming RKO's new distributed Cartoon.
@@brickrowdyruff9419 No

Bruh I used to watch old cartoons like this.
NOSTALGIA 100%
same, I had DVDs called 200 classic cartoons that had cartoons like this
Krusty the clown: .......... What the hell was THAT?!??!
🐭🤡
Glad he dumped her at the end. "Minnie Mouse" got around too much, lol! Anyway, I love the animation of these early BW classics.
🐭🤡💔🐭🎀
That’s Milton mouse 🐭 😐😐
It's like if Dr. Seuss made bootleg Disney shorts...with a hint of Ren & Stimpy thrown in.
Well, kids, this is where you would watch Mickey Mouse... except they're on another show now. So, here's Van Beuren's favorite male-and-female couple of mice... Milton and Rita, in "Circus Capers"!
I remember I had this cartoon on a DVD. It didn’t have the original titles and had only a home movie opening title and had no closing credits. It ended with a clip from the Bosko cartoon “The Booze Hangs High.”
I had the same dvd as a kid!
How odd. I remember having a DVD as a child that had Van Beuren's Tom and Jerry and on one of them it cut to the clip from "The Booze Hangs High" where the ducks are running and jumping and then cut back to the Tom and Jerry cartoon.
@@japanfanatic1415 DUDE I HAD THE EXACT SAME DVD!!! Pretty sure it was pirated…
@@YTGoldenArchitect WOW! I thought I'd never find anyone that knew what I was talking about! My great uncle was the one that gave me the DVD from his collection, but he didn't even remember it. I believe you're right, looking back it did seem pirated.
@@japanfanatic1415 I'm pretty sure my grandpa got it from a bin of DVD's at a sketchy dollar store lol. I'll try to find it and upload a picture of it to imigr.
I remember this i bean trying to look for this video forever i finally find it .
Man, even the PD Mickey mouse VHS tape did Feature 2 cartoons that is similar to Mickey and Minnie
One is "Smile Darn Ya Smile" (1931)
And one is "Circus Capers (1930)
Wow Mickey and Minnie moonlighting at Van Beuren! I'd heard Disney paid poorly
🤣👍
Actually he paid well, but a ton of the money went to legal fees involved with hiding all the stories about Minnie. She was apparently a bit of a floozy back in the day. She'd been to backstreet doctors so much she messed herself all up inside. That's why her and Mickey never had kids. Walt was actually instrumental in getting her back on her feet again. Bittersweet memories.
Wow Gerine and Violette moonlighting at Van Beuren! I'd heard Disney paid poorly

Van Beuren didn't care who they stole from
And it's like no one cares when they steal from Van Beuren! >:(
No. Walt Disney Animation Studios didn’t care who they stole from
@@brickrowdyruff9419they didn’t steal it. They stole disneys idea. Because they were rats instead of mice before Mickey. Now when he is apart of the 1930s cartoons. They are them look similar to Mickey and Minnie.

I remember this, my dad gave me a caset with a lot of these cartons, this One was my favorite one, but I can't find the rest
8:56 That part makes me worried

Guys this isn’t a Mickey and Minnie 1930 video....it’s a Milton and Rita video k.
I remember seeing this as a kid when I was on my 13th birthday trip in Seattle. It was on some sort of DVD collection with aome sing along song with Christopher Columbus and directly after this cartoon with no end credits, there was some weird cartoon with ducklings waddling to a pond before going into the pond and disappearing into the pond and that's how the cartoon ended. The ending to this always spooked me for some odd reason.
This was a pretty unique cartoon! Although I do wonder what was up with that ending?

Animation Bliss! A lot of Van Beuren cartoons end with the giant head thing. Why? Who knows, or nose as the black nose often fills the screen. Odd how the rejection blew her knickers off. And twice! Another indication that early cartoons were not aimed at kids.
John Statser I guess it was just to make the ending funny.

6:36 oh my! Walt Disney would not have approved lol!
I'm sure they had a lot to do with these toons getting taken off tv by the end of 1965.

OK, which of Aesop's fables was the one about the circus mice again? Was it somewhere after the Ant and the Grasshopper and before the Fox and the Grapes?
this one
I'm very certain that it's after Venus and the Cat.

Been looking for this for a while
Amazing Cartoon produced by Van Bueren Studios from 1930,I can see why Disney sued Bueren for having it's cartoon stars Milton and Rita being lookalikes of Mickey and Minnie Mouse.

When I first watched this when I was 5 years old, I actually thought this was a legitimate Mickey Mouse cartoon.

The moments I thought it would be nightmare fuel it just got *surreal*
i don't think this was made for children.
It wasn't
Back then there was no "For kids" or "For adults" and films could do whatever they want
@@sonicfanboy3375 well I mean… duh, I was just saying, this just doesn’t look like it was made for kids.

5:14 The performing clown laughs at the circus ringmaster, when the lion kicked him from behind - much to the ringmaster's anger! 🤣🤣🤣
1:26 The performing clown (who looked like Mickey Mouse) & the female performer (who looked like Minnie Mouse) are lovers at the circus...
1:26 - Mickey and Minnie look-alikes!
1:26 - Gerine and Violette look-alikes!
i love this so much!!#
5:05 wtf was that?
She was cheating on her lover.
. . .
5:05 is the vicious lion suddenly doing a tippy toe in the tulips dance with the ring master. The sudden change in the lion, for no apparent reason is humorous,...I guess.
At 6:33 Rita Mouse, that was her name, apparently turns against Milton Mouse and laughs at his misfortune. Since Milton is now unavailable, the fickle Rita retires with the Ring Master to his wagon for some kissy face. We've already seen she likes smooching and apparently will do it with anyone. But that's as far as she goes, when the Ring Master tries to go farther, she attempts to return to Milton. But he has witnessed her activities and rejects the Jezebel, which causes her to lose her knickers. Perhaps if the Ring Master had known that was the way to do it, the cartoon would have had a different ending.
John Statser yea this ending made me question this comment I made
Tbh, I feel really bad for Milton Mouse in general
5:46 A vengeful ringmaster sabotages the clown's performing act...
I have this on DVD

This cartoon is actually the precursor to Paul Terry’s The Lyin’ Lion from 1949 and tell me who’s the voice actor of these characters?
These ones were a bit basic for their time, but Van Bueren improved quickly. By the mid 30s they had Molly Moo Cow, Toonerville Trolley, and Parrotville.
Why don't people make parodies of this instead of jumping to steamboat willy?
Hey ! This mouse dancer is MICKEY MOUSE!!

Did Walt Disney start with in Buren before he went off on his own cuz those by sure look familiar...
man, why could they added mickey mouse lookalikes in this cartoon?
They couldn't. They got sued for it.
???
Well Van Beuren argued that Milton and Mary actually came out before Mickey did! So technically Mickey is a Milton lookalike
@@RoyalKnightVIII Her name is rita not mary.
@@TheJuicyJediJester yeah sorry, I saw knew source name her as Mary as well as Rita.
Well she's public domain now so I can call her Mary anytime I want 🤣

Are those two mice related to Mickey and Minnie?
No.
Once Mickey goes public domain they can be
The family members they don’t talk about....

Once Gerine goes public domain they can be
Van beuren's Mickey mouse

Lovely cartoon
How is this by Aesop?
What’s the moral?
No they called it Aesop's Fables as a joke it wasn't made by him
Only the earliest of the Aesop’s fables (done by Terry’s studio) were related to the actual fables of Aesop. All the rest just had morals that had the joke of being completely unrelated to the cartoon.
