After a month of battling a cold, I require humor, humor I tells ya'... So, here's a super classic WB cartoon directed by Bob Clampett, one I'm sure we all remember. It stars that goofy Beaky Buzzard and his family in this hilarious tale...
Here's Momma buzzard giving her little ones a pep talk before they head out to find something to have for supper.
Beaky is so damn bashful, he just doesn't want to join his brothers in the hunt, well, until mom boots him in the rear end and sends him on his way!
There's quite a difference between Beaky and his brothers' intensity over the hunt.
So, Beaky brings back zilch, causing mom to slap him around a little bit, trying to knock some sense into him!
After Beaky sees his bros bring back some sheep, he tries his hand at the task...
He zooms in for the kill but makes a huge mistake, and gets a bunch of bumps on top of his head for the effort.
His brothers are kicking A in the hunting department, and even bring back an elephants or two!
Beaky's bringing back a baby bumble bee! He's so proud of himself until Daddy bumble bee comes along and finds out that Beaky is responsible for the problem!
After getting stung in the rear, Beaky tries to cool things off a bit. Suddenly, Shorty shows up and laughs at Beaky, because it's funny...
After sizing things up, Beaky punches Shorty right in the mush!
Beaky tries to manhandle the dragon, well, until Shorty's had enough!!..
Mom calls out for her missing baby... Keeler, come home!!
A little beat up, Beaky shows up. Mom lectures him once again, he never, ever brings home even one morsel of food for the family. What sa'matta with my leetle-a Keeler?!
As it turns out, Beaky finally brings home something for the pot... We're back tomorrow as we wind down this decade, Lord help us all...
Beaky singing "I'm bringing home a baby bumble bee" is one of my favorite parts of any cartoon ever!
ReplyDeleteOh my, how I loved those cartoons when I was a kiddo...still love 'em now as an old phart! Heck, this site is like a monument to everything I have loved, and still love, as a kid, as a teener, as an adult, and now as an oldster! That's why, once I found this place on the www, I keep coming back and back and back!!! It's a place to escape and hang out, among fans and buffs, artists and filmmakers, with new cyber-friends, and share all the fun reminiscing on the fun points of entertainment in life! So much fun, so much inspiration!
