DESDINOVA'S DEMENTED CHRISTMAS THEATER PART 2
I've found two more You Tube Christmas presents for you. The first one I found by accident, but I thought I should post it because it fits me to a T. It is a 1932 Van Buren Studios cartoon entitled "The Snow Man." Most Van Buren cartoons are not very good. I'm going to be honest, I think most Van Buren Studios cartoons suck. They usually feature goofy looking animals "frolicking" and talking in silly, squeeking voices.
This cartoon is different. It cashes in on the hot Hollywood trend of the early 30s - horror films. This features a evil snowman who wrecks havoc and has a laugh like this, "Mwu-HAHAHAHAHA!" See why I like it. This is the unedited version.
Two versions of the same always pertinent message. Both of these are from MGM. One is a 1939Hugh Harman cartoon called "Peace On Earth." Old Grandpa Squirrel explains the irony or the popular Christmas expression "Peace on Earth, good will toward men." This was nominated for an Oscar.
In 1955, MGM's animation team of Hanna and Barbera updated the same story as "Good Will Toward Men." This was also nominated for an Oscar.
Happy Holliday! Seasons Greetings! Peace on Earth and Good Will Toward Men!

DESDINOVA'S DEMENTED CHRISTMAS THEATER
Last Christmas, I was watching on a disc from one of those DVD box sets made by the Mill Creek Company. I found one called "Christmas Cartoons and Shorts." It had several Christmas cartoons from the 30s & 40s on it, but also several short subjects from Castle Films. Castle made films for home projectors and schools. Some of the Christmas short films had me saying "WTF?!?!?!?" Here are two of those.
SANTA CLAUS, PUNCH & JUDY: Santa indulges a group of little Baby Boomers with the puppet equivalent of extreme fighting. This may not be safe at work since one scene involves a puppet spanking his monkey (with a large stick).
SANTA IN ANIMAL LAND: This one would be best viewed aided by alcohol and drugs. It might make it more logical.
No animal puppets were harmed during the filming of this movie. However, watching it could lead to brain damage. This explains why many Baby Boomers tried drugs.

MERRY CHRISTMAS FROM DESDINOVA!!!

I didn't have time for a great Christmas post of fun stuff like last year. I still want to wish you a merry and blessed Christmas! Enjoy being with your family. Think about the poor and needy, the sick and afflicted, as well as our service people serving abroad. Hopefully they can all be home soon. Most of all remember the reason for this season and message of love and peace that Jesus Christ brought to the word.
My other wish is that Santa brings me what is sitting on his lap in the photo above.
Once again, Merry Christmas from Desdinova the Super Villain of the Ozarks!!! Mwu-HOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!!!
