Treasure Island(1950)

Now this was an interesting movie to watch. I never was one for to watch movies about Pirates because #1 most Pirate movies are slightly B-O-R-I-N-G and #2 I so dislike the life style and their way of talking. Anyhow, because I so loved the ANIMATED movie that comes years later (TREASURE PLANET), it was very easy for me to tolorate this Disney version and not to mention that BOBBY DRISCOLL was cast in this. For those who do not know this boy, you need to watch SONG OF THE SOUTH and SO DEAR TO MY HEART. He was the little boy in all three movies. Such a delightful boy actor he was. If it wasn't for him, I really don't think I would have liked this movie. Talk about Bravery on the young lad and change of conscience on the pirate which made my mind to give this movie a 4.5 star rating. It was not as bad as I thought it was gonna be. Only Disney can do this.


 My Favorite Chareceter:



Creepy Charecter:


I bet you thought I was gonna say the LONG JOHN SILVER eh? He was a little of both, creepy and nicey-nice of a charecter. At first I thought he was JOHN WAIT(THE WALTONS) but saw the name and thought what a kinda of a look a like.


 Here is the TRAILER.

CINDERELLA (1950)

I am so delighted to have been able to watch this movie. If you are a very down stage and want to be right back up, this is a good movie to watch. The sillyness will make your heart laugh and smile and not to mention LOVE. Very emotional movie, well for the older folks. It is not fun watching someone being used as a slave by their own family, even if it is their| STEPS. The mother(Not pure evil) who does anything for her real daughters and make CINDERELLA do everything. All because of this you want to love Cinderalla with all of your heart. No one person should have to suffer the way that she did. However, her attitude and love towards other(especially aniamls) is such a delight to see. I must mention, HOW I LOVE GUS! If i were to play in a live action cinderlla, that is ME hee hee.... Anyhow, I loved how Cinderella gets her happily ever after, especially the way her step sisters treated to her on her dress. I am like, how did she know that certain things were theirs. Anyhow, I gave this movie a 5 STARS. My Top 3 Favorite Charecters: #3
                                       BRUNO


 #2
      BOTH I LOVE


 #1
CINDERELLA of course

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE DISNEY MOVIE FROM THE 1930s through 1949???

The Adventures Of Ichabod and Mr. Toad (1949)

I really enjoyed this film so very much. The soothing

narration of Rathbone and Crosby are so fantastic. I wish they both have done more disney animated movies. Mr. Toad a very clever toad got into trouble when being accused of stealing a motor car and Ichabod, a very good teach but has a desire of eating, falls in love with a girl but it is scared away by the tale of the headless horeseman. The song by Bing Crosby is so great that it kinda makes you laugh. This overall experience gives me a full 5 stars and longing to see more animated movies like this one. A true classic indeed. Here is the full movie:

 

Melody Time (1948)



This Musical feature reminds me so much of MAKE MY MUSIC, although I fair this one much better than the lass. The music was so fantastic. I have such a soft spot for the dear ANDREW SISTERS. Sometimes I wonder why they Recycle cartoons and put them in a new feature. That was the first part of the of this movie that was called WINTER SOLICSTICE. It was not bad, in fact one of the better ones of this whole movie about love and such and very beautiful too.

 My favorite one was the story of JOHNNY APPLESEED. I never get tired of watching that cartoon of this fable. The Pecos and Bill was pretty interesting but the end part was kinda weird and un-realistic, if you know what I mean. So I give this movie 4.5 stars out of 5.

 Here is my favorite songs from the Movie:

 #3 BLUE SHADOWS ON THE TRAIL



  #2 ONCE UPON A WINTERTIME



 #1 JOHNNY APPLESEED


HERE IS THE FULL MOVIE: MELODY TIME

VICTORY THROUGH AIR POWER (1943)

This is not your typical Disney movie.  This is mostly a history type of watching.  It is interesting learning about Planes for our use through war, but I must admit, I find this type of movie pretty boring to watch.
I am not a big fan of war and not a fan in how these planes were used in fighting wars.  So in this short blog, I  give this movie the lowest I have given since doing this blog.  I rate this movie 2.5 stars.  The history was great and the cartoons are fun to watch but overall B=O=R=I=N=G.

Here is the Movie from YOUTUBE:

Make Mine Music(1946)


 This movie is kinda reminds me of FANTASIA. Shows a whole bunch of shorts with music and I must say the Music is so incredible. On A Whole I would give this movie a 4.5 but I wanted to break down the video
 by each short.

"BLUE BAYOU"


 I give this Short a 4. It is slightly boring but the Music Crooning is great.

 "A JAZZ INTERLUDE"
  I give this short a 5. I loved the music and the cartoon short is so creative. It's like you are watching a cartoon being made before your very eyes. Around the 1950s I think when teenagers were hooked on Jukebox dancing.

"A Ballad In Blue"



 I give this short a 4. Another slightly boring short. Guess you must have great imagination to thoroughly enjoy this one however, the crooning song is extremely fantastic.

 "CASEY AT BAT"
 

I give this short a 5. This one is one of the most recognized cartoon short. Just comes to show you, if you are a hot big star or leader in homer runs or whatever, you will STRIKE OUT. Incredible baseball short.

"BALLAD THE DANCE"


I give this a 4. Once again, a kinda put your to sleep kinda short and if you like Ballets(which I do not), anyhow, Dinah Shore sings so Beautifully. 

"PETER AND THE WOLF"

 
 I give this short a 5. Oh yeah, the voice of WINNIE THE POOH. Loved how each charecter being recognized by a different instrument. Very clever indeed.

 "THE GOODMEN QUUARTET"

  I give this a 4.5. It's very interesting to see instruments being used as charecters but I will always love Benny Goodmen and his Clarinet Playing.

 "A LOVE STORY"

 
 The lowest star which is a 3 in this whole video. This is too silly of a story of two hats who are in love with each other and being sung by the great ANDREW SISTERS.

 "THE WHALE WHO WANTED TO SING AT  THE MET"

 
 I give this a 4.5. This is a wild and silly idea but a very interesting short about a whale who sings OPERA. Ok There you have, this is what I thought of MAKE MINE MUSIC! I bet your children will love this because it is all ANIMATED Filled with FANTASTIC MUSIC!

 Here is a video Clip of "CASEY AT BAT" my favorite video in the whole entire movie.
