Popeye in Warner Bros Cartoons!


Here is a few scenes of Popeye in other cartoons:

The first is a Porky Pig Cartoon. That's right, Porky Pig. In the 1937 film Porky's Garden, one of the chicks eats spinach and then turns into Popeye. It's very funny to see this. Popeye was the most popular cartoon star of the 1930s. Tex Avery is using Popeye as a gag for a Porky Pig cartoon. This proves Popeye's popularity in the 1930s and how aware the studios were of the Fleischers.



That wasn't the only time either, the ending and climax of the Major Lied till Dawn is also a Popeye parody

    Also check out "Porky's Hero Agency," which even has a quick bar of "I'm Popeye the Sailor Man" on the soundtrack.
