    5:37 The mouse tossing a brick at the cat is a reference to the comic strip Krazy Kat by George Herriman.
    Not just did Krazy Kat have a strong following at the time, but Herriman had connections at Hal Roach and would often hang out at the studio getting some work done. He even teased a Laurel & Hardy writer for stealing gags in a gift painting to said writer.
    This scene with the ”cat” and ”mouse” (or at least the execution of it) is definitely not something Herriman would have requested himself, because he had very strong views on animal welfare and was infamously self-effacing.

    An animated Mickey Mouse briefly appears in the 1934 MGM movie "Hollywood Party", a kind of musical comedy anthology film. Mickey's appearance is followed by the 5-minute Technicolor short "The Hot Choc-late Soldiers", specially made by Disney for the MGM film.

    • @SomeBoiOnline

    Another rare instance of Mickey Mouse appearing in a non Walt Disney studios film is the all star MGM Feature, HOLLYWOOD PARTY (1934) earlier that year! It should also be noted that Walt Disney himself eventually remade the film in question, BABES IN TOYLAND (1961), which also featured a (somewhat) Laurel & Hardy like duo. 😊 CHEERS! 😊

    I love March of the Wooden Soldiers! Even the "normal" parts of the film are bizarre in a way that only something from the 30s can be, it's hard to explain why though. Maybe because it's basically a live action version of a Silly Symphony or Merrie Melodies, it's kind of uncanny.

      Who knows? The internet in general is still so angry at Disney, not only is there no way the Internet will forgive Disney, even if many irl will, but they’re probably gonna “punish” Disney for “just existing”. Walt may have eventually been carried away by his pride of his company, but I’m sure he never intended for it to go so far into the dark side.

    Disney was not then the powerhouse it would become. It may have been more likely that Disney let Roach use
    the Mickey Mouse character (Along with The Three Little Pigs and the song "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf) because
    of the publicity they would get by being in a Laurel and Hardy film. Stan and Ollie were incredibly popular at that time.

    @Fairyqueen2857 Před rokem +6

    In tern, what the Walt Disney company did in their version of the story, is that they apparently had two characters called Gonzorgo and Roderigo and they were supposed to be a reference to Laurel and Hardy and made them the sidekick characters to the main villain of the story. I haven’t seen Disney’s version myself, I’m only going by what I’ve read.
    I always thought that it was rather odd that Mickey Mouse would be referenced in a non-Disney film but I guess it makes sense if the two filmmakers were good friends.
    I was shocked to learn it was actually a monkey in the Mickey Mouse costume! I thought it was a puppet this whole time! Poor thing.

    yeah, Disney won't let mickey go into the public domain soon. they worked so hard to keep the mouse from the same fate in the early 90s by changing the copyright law at the supreme court just so they could have their mascot. and I'm sure they might repeat history to keep the mouse for themselves.

    nice research. march of the wooden soldiers was the wizard of oz of its day. hard to imagine a time when disney was up and coming!
    references to MOTWS abound in lucas films and others - compare parts of its score to the sneaky theme in goonies, for ex.
    yes, animal actors are a complex subject. definitely trainers in both sides of the artistry and ethics spectrum.
    also many elements of vaudeville in the film that are all but entirely lost in modern entertainment

      I saw it too, and believe it or not, when Disney made a version for WWII titled "The Thrifty Pig", it was released in Canada in 1941, and there were a few changes, such as the big bad wolf being a nazi, but the picture of sausage links with caption "Father", was change to instead be a picture of an American football with the caption "Uncle Otto". This Canadian WWII version of the short also advertised war bonds.
      Yes this actually exists, here's a CZcams link to an Actual 4K remaster of it.
      czcams.com/video/YWIk8eg2CnU/video.html
      (Edit: I forgot about another change, the ending was changed, in the 1933 original "Three Little Pigs", The Big Bad Wolf tries to climb down the chimney, and falls into a pot of turpentine, but in the 1941 WWII Canadian "The Thrifty Pig", the third little pig starts throwing bricks at the b
      Big Bad Wolf, while the Big Bad Wolf is trying to blow the house down.)
