I love how much Joe moves like an actual animal, yet he has so much character and emotion behind those movements as well. Ray Harryhausen did an incredible job.
@@289cobra9 I know, what I refer to is he honed his skill to a higher level of quality. I know O'Brien was among the first stop motion animators and that Ray worked with him on this film. I love the work of both.
The live-action and stop motion footage are integrated seamlessly, even if you can't help but feel sorry for the lion who was undoubtedly harassed and driven crazy by his trainers in order to "act".
Imagine putting the real lion's video over a stop motion video like that, that was some genius technique and must've astonished people back in those days,
Yeah it's funny that when Joe knocks the cage over and after smashing it open when the lion escapes you can clearly see it as stop motion but when it is running away it's a real lion and man I was laughing throughout a lot of scenes in this movie it was freaking hilarious and after all these years I still can't get over the fact when they made this movie they used the same roar and grunting sound effects for Mighty Joe Young like they did for the original King Kong that came out nearly 12 years earlier as this movie was released in 1945 and the original King Kong was released in 1933.
@@Chepstowion_Adventura So? A circus lion was natural in the old days since people at the time were scared of wild animals on the loose like this one.
@@Chepstowion_Adventura Kid, I’ve been from one circus to another and there was no sign of animal cruelty, anywhere. So, the animal cruelty in the circus of the 30s was a humbug.

Mind-boggling to think this film came out more than 70 years ago, and the stop-motion editing looks so incredibly fresh and clean. Absolutely amazing.

Brilliant stop-motion animation by Ray Harryhausen.
Yeah he really kicked O'Brien's ass!
Ray harryhausen is a genius
@@martinpetersson4350
He did what he did because of O'Brien. Ray saw King Kong as a kid in 1933. The rest is history.

I love how Joe pounds the ground whenever he gets angry. What wonderful detail in the Animation.

Look. In the old days, it was common that lions were trained because people at the time were afraid of wild animals on the loose!

The lion runs what a brilliant idea!!

Turned 70 Years Ago After King Kong (1933)
The Lion was smart enough to run away rather than engage in a fight with Mighty Joe. Smart decision, it's not a brave one.

1949.
More action in that clip than in the entire remake, even if the remake is "more realistic".
Stan Winstons animatronic and suit for the remake was fantastic, best I've ever seen.
@@martinpetersson4350 they weren’t made by Stan Winston tho, they where made by Rick Baker.
@@murilog.p.1383 You sure? this is Mighty Joe Young. I might misremember but I do know Rick Baker has made a lot of primate costumes.
Damn that is amazing stop motion!
A lion escapes to live another day
Sounds like Joe hit him with the rock at the end there.
Lion escape not from joe but the circus that was keeping him prison

@@benjaminfischer3229 yeah but it animal cruelty and so that lion feel happy that he free from his captors.

That stop-motion animation still looks great!
Joe: Don't be alarmed, your majesty. I've come to set you free.
The lion looked so damned realistic. 🦁
It was a real lion. It was filmed as a Separate Element and Inserted into the Scene in Post Production.
Robert Armstrong had the gift of meeting 3 gorillas in 3 films, lmao.
King Kong, Son of Kong and Mighty Joe Young?
Wow this is crazy how they super imposed the claymation with the real lion. It’s better than cgi we see today.
Mighty Joe Young sound like King Kong from 1933
Marcellus I think King Kong & Mighty Joe Young were cousins smile 😊2-13-20
Damn that animation still holds up. Amazing!
0:42 1943 King Kong: I'll Killed that Cat
Interesting to see the special effects developing in such a short time from King Kong. Heavily scored too.
Lion runs off , cause he heard old woman say "here Kitty"
All my heart and love to Mr. Joseph Young to Danny G.
I like it when Joe slammed his fist on the ground cuz it looks like he's saying "GOD DAMIT"
i love how life like the stopmotion was in this film, compared to 1933's King Kong this looks way better (in my opinion)
I love this movie! Classic!
Not VS the lion, FREEING the lion. 😉
WHEN U SEE LIONS RUNNING AWAY.....U KNOW THAT SHIT IS SERIOUS FO REAL!!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Fun Fact they use real life lion and the stop motion version
Jerry at the Movies on War Eagles of 1939 "Greatest Movie Never Made"
Mighty joe young
really good and funny
damn youtube for giving king kong credit
This dont even look like stop motion thats how good the stop motion is
Joe: ow!! Listen you little shit I'm trying to rescue yo- OW!!
Are there a video explaining how they match the live action lion?
now i saw the 1998 version of mighty joe young and he was only freeing a leopard
The Lion Bit Joe
Joe: Why Do You BIT Me BOY!? I SAVE YOUR LIFE!
the fact that my friends and i tried to voice act the lion and joe
Amazing
How did they project the lion into the cage while it was tipping over?
How they gon have a fake looking gorilla and a real lion in the same scene

Wait a minute this isn't megalo boxing
What is Joe trying to do to the lion?
He tried to free him but he didn't know how until the end
That’s a very good question. Based on what Joe does to the lions later in the movie, he probably wants to wrestle with him or change him.
KING KONG 🦍🦁
this is not joe It's king kong
Um -- what?
Look at fanel fabien fighting white people yo my nigga pedro I'm not playing lol people on youtube yes whites he was born fighting
