..what the HELL? We had to wait for not one, not two, but SIX YEARS for this animated pile of feces? Yeesh. Wonder what took the guy so damn long. Plus, the controversy just adds salt to the wound, so it's unlikely this short will ever get popular or unironically enjoyable.

I Wanna Be a Sailor

When I was little, this film really intrigued me. It felt completely alien to see a Warner Bros. cartoon without Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, etc. etc. It's also to see how Avery's humour evolved, too. While this short certainly isn't "Red Hot Riding Hood", it's still bound to give you a laugh or two. And here's an interesting piece of trivia - the voice of Peter Parrot in the film was supplied by radio actor Robbie Winkler.

Wabbit Twouble

I legitimately wonder if this project was started by Avery before he left. There is something undeniably Avery about it compared to Clampett's other Bugs shorts. If it wasn't an abandoned Avery project, it sure feels like one!

Orphan's Picnic

This cartoon holds a special place in my heart because it is one of the first Mickey Mouse cartoons I had ever watched. That being said, re-watching it years later, you can't help but feel bad for Donald. Maybe if this were, say, a short where Donald and the nephews were going on a picnic then I would understand. But the orphans are so nice with Mickey (they even play Blind Man's Bluff with him earlier in the picture!) but yet so rough with Donald
