I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Here is another cartoon from Paul Terry (the creator of Mighty Mouse), that I now love and it is now another favorite. I thought that this is a beautifully colorful cartoon, and of course the story-line for it shows a pastoral summer setting. But I had found out (after research), that the story for this cartoon was inspired by a poem that starts like this: "And what is so rare as a day in June?" I'm afraid that is all I have to say about this cartoon, and that I love the scene with the two little fawns. I thought it was reminiscent to Disney's "Bambi." So overall, I love this beautiful colorful Terrytoon.

The first verse of James Russell Lowell's poem, "What is So Rare as a Day in June" is illuminated by a mixture of idyllic images and gag sequences in this charming Terrytoon.This sort of cartoon was essayed occasionally, most notably in Disney's Silly Symphonies. They were begun partially to keep Carl Stalling happy and to give that studio a series to work out ideas and techniques. Paul Terry's studio always did occasional pieces like this, albeit rarely using poetry as the text. However, despite the often repetitive nature of his cartoons, his staff was as good as any and business was very good during the Second World War. He could well afford to make a cartoon far from his bread-and-butter work and use his most expensive Candybox style of art.Not that there are not the usual Terry touches. The gags may be softer than usual, as his usually villainous spider is merely mischievous, dumping dew on a hard-working honeybee. The result is a sentimental work, well in synch with the narrated poem.
