Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

MartinHafer In the 1950s, Disney made a half dozen Humphrey the Bear cartoons. They are all pretty fun and have held up well over the years, though the series never exactly caught on and Humphrey is all but forgotten today. Like other Humphrey cartoons, it stars our beloved bear and the forest ranger. BUT it is nothing like Yogi Bear--it's good! In this cute installment, Humphrey is excited. After all, it's fishing season and the park's waters are being stocked with fish. However, despite his best efforts, again and again, the pesky ranger interrupts him and keeps him from enjoying a nice fish dinner.Overall, this short works for one big reason--it's fun. Humphrey is a likable character but he is also given excellent writing and a nice little sadistic edge. While the animation is only so-so, the writing and entertainment value are excellent.

baruch770 this is a great short it even had an opening theme that would be used for two cartoons,el gaucho goofy morris the midget moose and it should ring a bell to the ears of disney video collectors(like me) as that theme would late be used to open the walt disney cartoon classic videos.

Ron Oliver A Walt Disney HUMPHREY BEAR Cartoon.Humphrey becomes a HOOKED BEAR by stealing as many tasty fish as possible, always trying to keep one step ahead of the Little Ranger...This short film has some very funny moments, centered around the personalities of dimwitted Humphrey & fusspot J. Audubon Woodlore - voiced by Jim Macdonald & Bill Thompson respectively.Walt Disney (1901-1966) was always intrigued by drawings. As a lad in Marceline, Missouri, he sketched farm animals on scraps of paper; later, as an ambulance driver in France during the First World War, he drew figures on the sides of his vehicle. Back in Kansas City, along with artist Ub Iwerks, Walt developed a primitive animation studio that provided animated commercials and tiny cartoons for the local movie theaters. Always the innovator, his ALICE IN CARTOONLAND series broke ground in placing a live figure in a cartoon universe. Business reversals sent Disney & Iwerks to Hollywood in 1923, where Walt's older brother Roy became his lifelong business manager & counselor. When a mildly successful series with Oswald The Lucky Rabbit was snatched away by the distributor, the character of Mickey Mouse sprung into Walt's imagination, ensuring Disney's immortality. The happy arrival of sound technology made Mickey's screen debut, STEAMBOAT WILLIE (1928), a tremendous audience success with its use of synchronized music. The SILLY SYMPHONIES soon appeared, and Walt's growing crew of marvelously talented animators were quickly conquering new territory with full color, illusions of depth and radical advancements in personality development, an arena in which Walt's genius was unbeatable. Mickey's feisty, naughty behavior had captured millions of fans, but he was soon to be joined by other animated companions: temperamental Donald Duck, intellectually-challenged Goofy and energetic Pluto. All this was in preparation for Walt's grandest dream - feature length animated films. Against a blizzard of doomsayers, Walt persevered and over the next decades delighted children of all ages with the adventures of Snow White, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Bambi & Peter Pan. Walt never forgot that his fortunes were all started by a mouse, or that simplicity of message and lots of hard work always pay off.

Robert Reynolds I just love this series of shorts! I have no idea why, but I think they're marvelous. Humphrey usually winds up the loser in whatever is going on and the expressions on his face are hilarious. The animation is quite good for 1950s animation and Humphrey and Ranger Woodlore are well developed as characters. Too bad these aren't in print. Well worth looking for. They run these on The Ink and Paint Club. Most recommended.
