... View MoreChip 'n' Dale takes on a more hero approach in this cartoon short (as opposed to causing grief to Donald Duck), where they take on a Western-spoof role in taking on the outlaw Pegleg Pete.It's a Lone Ranger-type spoof where we see Pete hide his loot from a bank he robbed into a tree where the chipmunks happen to be in. What result, is a somewhat entertaining duel between the critters and the outlaw, giving us some Western action.It's refreshing seeing the chipmunks actually take on a bad guy as opposed to the usual chipmunks vs. Donald Duck to get acorns story lines.Grade B-
... View MoreI've always loved Disney, and find the Chip 'n' Dale cartoons routine but very entertaining. Although the sound on the Youtube video was distorted and sometimes the video was out of sync, this is one of my favourite cartoons featuring the chipmunks. Here the story is very fast-paced and much less routine than some of their other cartoons. The chipmunks are far more intelligence in their speaking than they can be, and here they don't take on adorable Pluto or cantankerous Donald but burly Pete, who is I think more of a threat than the other two. The animation is lively and colourful, and the music is rousing. All the gags that make up the humour hit the mark, Chip 'n' Dale are cute and Pete is as burly and as menacing as ever. Overall, a fun cartoon with much to like. 10/10 Bethany Cox
... View MoreA Walt Disney CHIP 'N' DALE Cartoon.When Western bank robber Pete escapes with his loot, it is up to THE LONE CHIPMUNKS to capture and bring him to justice.This is a funny little film, with the tiny rodents almost meeting their match in the burly Pete - an enemy much more dangerous than their usual antagonists Donald Duck or Pluto; casting them together was an inspired idea. Both the title and the film's conclusion are spoofs of the very popular media hero, The Lone Ranger.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.
