Much better then the Pig, don't you agree ??
Due to the nature of Bug's and his dim witted nemesis, the cartoons can go in any direction with a wide scope of imaginative play when the characters interact with one another.
Much better from Warner Brothers in my opinion.
History of Animation
On this blog I will be looking at the early stages of animation through to more recognisable and well known animation we are all familiar with.

I haven't got a Hat'. (1935)
Frits Frelang crated Warner Brothers First star Porky Pig in this animation.
I feel the animation is lacking compared to the Disney cartoons as he is not tacking full advantage of the imagination cartoons can show.
Even the class mates of the students in the animation where getting board and got up to mischievous things which in them selves, wasn't all that original or entertaining.
Although Porky Pig was Warner Brothers first star i don't like him, and i think Bug's Bunny is much more of a likable character and is now more strongly associated to Warner Brothers. I feel there is little you can do with a stuttering pig where as a cool carrot eating wise guy Bunny, well, thers a good pot of ingridience write there for a commical character.

The Band Concert 1935
This animation starts with an amazing cycle. So much is happening and as far as cycles go i feel in a scene like the opening one in this animation it is perfect as the viewer can take in many actions and divert there view to another area of the cartoon. Again you see mickey fairly aggressive but for a comically valid reason but visually he is getting much closer to the modern day Mickey.
Although i repeat myself, i do feel the need to comment again on the imagination of the story and commend on the occurrences that led up to the funnily of the animation. I really liked the small touches such as Mickeys broken stick (not sure of the correct name, stick will do). The phrase " The Show Must Go On" springs to mind.

Little Wise Hen' (1934)
Little Wise Hen was the first cartoon with Donald Duck (voiced by Clarence Nash). Donald was introduced so that Disney could still have a good but cheeky character in his animation rather than using his flagship character Micky.
This is the only example iv posted that i didn't enjoy from Disney as its repetitive.
The animation though again is faultless and the use of colour is even better then his Flowers and Trees.

Flowers and Trees 1932
Here is the first Disney animation using colour.
I'm sure its no coincidence Disney doesn't use his earlier characters and instead uses flowers and trees, most probably to show a colour full display throughout his animation.
I do feel it is a little of a dark story but the imagination of some of the things Disney makes his characters do still amazes me. I feel with all of these early examples of Disney's work really have a little bit of magic in the way there animated and how enchanting the characters are. I really liked the villain in this cartoon, a dead tree is fitting for the story plot.

The Opry House(1929)
Here is another great cartoon. The imagination used in the dance moves by the characters was very funny and translated well in the animation.
You can also see the development on Micky taking place half way through the animation. At the beginning Micky had no gloves, then a little latter he is wearing the gloves which to this day, is still part of the Micky mouse character. I feel the gloves where added mainly because of the piano scene as it is clearer to see the movements of the individual fingers as they each have there own outline rather then all being filled in black like the rest of Micky's skin.

Steam Boat Willy 1928
Soon after Crazy Planet, Steam Boat Willy, a very famous animation was created. This animation really show cased Disney and the synchronisation of sound within his animation.
Even today, popular cartoons refer to this animation as part of a gag (Itchy and Scratchy From The Simpson's, cant find example). This animation, i feel will stand the test of time as it is humerus, very well animated and already well known.
Even as a child born in 1987 i have seen this animation aired on terrestrial television.
You can also see the behaviour of Micky differing to what we may be yous to seeing in a more recent Micky cartoon. He has no remorse for the actions he takes on other animals showing a cheeky side to him.
