@@hammondOT Ikr? People are so thoughtless and disrespectful towards the past simply because we have some new technologies. Otherwise, people & everything else are the same as it ever was.
@@allendulles2481 That’s not the point. Even today, we’re still amazed about new technology. That would’ve been even more true in the 20s. Nobody is disrespecting or demeaning anyone.
I’m teaching myself animation using a program that makes it fairly easy to make my own cartoons. I watch this and am in awe of the talent, imagination, and hard work that went into these cartoons. All I have to do is click and drag a pre-keyframed action to the character. I cannot conceive of the amount of work that was done, by hand, to make those skeletons dance so smoothly. Cartoons aren’t kid stuff! 😉
My great-grandmother was almost 35 years old in 1929. о_о She was born in the Russian Empire, but in 1929 in the Soviet Union did not show this cartoon. I was born in 1997.
Geekerama. Yep, this was big time scary for kids back then, I’m sure. That was a *much* simpler time. Moviegoers in 1929 probably shrieked at the skeleton head extreme closeups. We take gore and violence for granted today. Today’s unbelievably violent crap would never get out of the animator’s studio door back then.
This cartoon is still a masterpiece, and it was included on the 16-LP boxed set called the "Silly Symphony Collection" where it featured the complete soundtracks along with dialogue and sound effects from all of the cartoons. As for this cartoon, even by 1929 standards, it's still a test of time. The music for this cartoon was done by Carl Stalling, and that was 7 years before he joined WB for the music for all of the "Looney Tunes" and "Merrie Melodies' series. Prior to joined WB, he did the music for early Disney cartoons with Mickey Mouse along with the first of many "Silly Symphony" cartoons, and then he also did the music for Flip the Frog, Willie Whopper and the ComiColor cartoons under Ub Iwerks until 1936. Carl Stalling was the master of genius.
I realize that something is REALLY OLD when was not even my grandmother had been born in 1929. And even after so long, this cartoon not been forgotten. Awsome.
Alex Henderson you just said that because it could have been true, because yes it was creepy and yes people back then did get scared more easily but how could it be banned from TV?..
+Akifah Alam Ubbe Ert Iwwerks born 24.03.1901 in Kansas City, died 07.07.1971 in Burbark. Carl Walter Stalling born 10.11.1891 died 29.11.1972.... any questions?
Me being a huge fan of Tim Burton, here's a fun fact: The scene from Corpse Bride with Bonejangles singing the story about how Emily had died, it's way of playing out was influenced by this.
oKay so when I was younger i played a game called Epic Mickey 2; the power of two, and im pretty sure this is one of the stages. I CANT believe i found this. thanks so much. Ive been looking for years.
+Jules Cadence All of them, most likely. This was made 86 years ago, anyone who could've worked on it at the time would be well over 100 now. And since the number of centenarians compared to the world's population is pretty low, the chances that even one of them would've worked on this are incredibly low
The Sorge With the usual kind of burying? O_o What are your resources for this? I've seen pretty old corpses still having flesh, but maybe they were embalmed or buried in certain ground.
thank you for posting this! I just saw it for the first time in the extras for the game Epic Mickey 2 and decided to see if it was online, fully expecting it to not be because Disney haha.
I feel that, if this was done today. Someone, somewhere would find this offensive, and it would be banned from someplace and be labeled as politically incorrect
So according to Disney, skeletons awake in the middle of the night, dance, and then go to sleep again, and that's for the rest of the eternity, meaning THE RIDE NEVER ENDS?
Brilliant! Sheer brilliance! I LOVED how they do all of their moves to the music! THAT"S the way to do it! More cartoons need to be like this! Thumbs up if you agree! :D
I'm in California and I too was born on Halloween! I didn't like it so much when I was younger but as I have gotten older I have come to love the fact that my birthday is on Halloween! And if u r wondering, yup I still go trick or treating but now I take my granddaughters also! I love Halloween!
If you thing that's the first jumps are then checkout the bedroom scene from the cabinet of doctor caligary that's from 1920 and is actually scary even today if you don't expect it

As a kid I remember seeing this on the Disney Channel back in the 80’s and always enjoyed it.
Any one else prefer this type of animation then the new 3D stuff that Disney do
I love this classics!!!
Nothing beats the old classic cell-drawn animation! It's a dying art. The 3D stuff is good but this is so much better!

No, not really.

In about 90 years, Warner Bros. would use the "skeleton as a xylophone" gag in "Corpse Bride".
76 years later, how is that almost 90?
+Marcus Postma This came out in 1926, so says the title. Therefore, yes, it is 90.
The skeleton dance came out in 1929, corpse bride in 2005.

They used to have AC 7, 1d8 HP, and appear in groups of 3d4 (3d10).
ARE YOU JOKING?!?
WHAAAAAATTTTT?????
When the skeleton moves up to the screen man was totally not expecting that. Actually managed to freak me out (unlike modern 3D movies).
This was actually banned from TV because it was way too creepy for it's time.
tvs didn't exist back then Haha, well they weren't as popular as the radio but the probably saw this in the movies or something hahaha

You should keep in mind that all of this is hand drawn! Not like todays cartoons..
With today's technology we should have made just as smooth or smother animation than we did years ago.
I Really love that period of time
A lot of cartoons still are hand drawn what're you talking about
Not really, usually CG now
what a waste of time
new Castlevania looks pretty good
Oh, oh ho! Ha!

Classic animation!!! Still don’t want to know how they did it!!!! Love these classics!!!

This is the kind of stuff that happens in real life.....
when you watch a cartoon like this, you're seeing more than just Disney's first animated short.
you are witnessing history in the making.
This is the most wholesome thing that has made me laugh in a long ass time.
1:44 the first jumpscare in history
If you thing that's the first jumps are then checkout the bedroom scene from the cabinet of doctor caligary that's from 1920 and is actually scary even today if you don't expect it
1929 animation still better than any CGI...
Stop it, get some help
Yep
Chris Craft nostalgia is one hell of a drug
Chris Craft facts
I don't really like comparing the two, it's apples to oranges. CGI obviously gives better detail but 2D animation has a lot of charm.

nostalgia is a feeling check the Vsauce video of it
You may not know this but videos may still be aired on television after the year they were released. Surprising I know

+Kaat Brackeniers wait this has been aired on the TV? I actually didn't know, sorry
You didn't have to be born in the 20s to watch this, I'm sure plenty of people watched this as a kid for years after it came out
It feels like nostalgia, but I'm not old enough for that to happen.
They need too put more *backbone* into the dance.
You don't see animations like this anymore... :'(
You will when the video game Cuphead is released.
The new are just ban ka boom
I don't think you guys understand how much it cost to animate stuff nowadays look it up you'll be surprised
