Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor

Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor is a 1936 ii-reel blithe cartoon short subject area picture show in the Popeye Color Feature series, produced in Technicolor and released to theatres on November 27, 1936 by Paramount Pictures.[2] It was produced by Max Fleischer for Fleischer Studios, Inc. and directed by Dave Fleischer, with the title song by Sammy Timberg. The voice bandage includes Jack Mercer as Popeye, Mae Questel as Olive Oyl, Gus Wickie as Sindbad the Sailor, and Lou Fleischer equally J. Wellington Wimpy.

Plot [edit]

In this short, Sindbad the Sailor (who is intended to be an alternating version of Popeye'due south quondam nemesis Bluto) lives on an island where he keeps loads of creatures that he had captured during his adventures (lions, tigers, giants, dragons, vultures, snakes, and apes). Where he proclaims himself, in song, to exist the greatest sailor, adventurer, and lover in the world and "the most remarkable, extraordinary swain," a claim that is inadvertently challenged past Popeye as he innocently sings his usual song while sailing by inside earshot of Sindbad's isle with his girlfriend Olive Oyl and his friend J. Wellington Wimpy on board.

Sindbad orders his huge roc to kidnap Popeye's girlfriend, Olive Oyl, and wreck Popeye's transport, forcing him and Wimpy to swim to shore. Sindbad relishes making Olive his trophy married woman, which is interrupted past Popeye's inflow. Sindbad so challenges the one-eyed sailor to a series of obstacles to prove his greatness, including fighting the roc, a two-headed cyclops named Boola (an credible parody reference to The Iii Stooges), and Sindbad himself. Popeye makes short piece of work of the bird and the giant, but Sindbad almost gets the best of him until Popeye produces his tin of spinach, which gives him the power to soundly defeat Sindbad and proclaim himself "the most remarkable, boggling fella."

A subtly dark running gag features the hamburger-loving Wimpy chasing subsequently a duck on the island with a meat grinder, with the intention of grinding information technology up so that he can fry it into his favorite dish, but the duck non only escapes, merely also snatches away Wimpy's final burger in retaliation when he gives upwards. Many of the scenes in this brusk characteristic make use of the Fleischer'due south "Steroptical Process", or "Setback Tabletop" process, which used modeled sets to create 3D backgrounds for the cartoon.[iii]

Release and reception [edit]

This short was the first of the three Popeye Colour Specials, which, at over xvi minutes each, were billed every bit "A Popeye Feature." Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor was nominated for the 1936 Academy Laurels for Best Short Subject: Cartoons, but lost to Walt Disney's Silly Symphony The Country Cousin. Footage from this short was later used in the 1952 Famous Studios Popeye cartoon Big Bad Sindbad, in which Popeye relates the story of his run into with Sindbad to his iii nephews.

The Popeye Color Specials, also including Popeye the Crewman Meets Ali Baba's 40 Thieves, and Aladdin and His Wonderful Lamp (both of which were also adapted from a story featured in I Grand and One Nights) are in the public domain, and are widely available on dwelling video and DVD, ofttimes transferred from poor quality, erstwhile, faded prints. A fully restored version with the original Paramount mountain logo opening and closing titles is available on the Popeye the Sailor: 1933-1938, Volume ane DVD set up from Warner Bros.

Producer and special effects creative person, Ray Harryhausen stated in his Fantasy Moving-picture show Scrapbook that Popeye the Sailor Meets Sindbad the Sailor was a major influence on his product of The 7th Voyage of Sinbad.
