Good Old Cartoon
21 December 2021
In this short, named after what would become one of Popeye's signature catchphrases, he, Olive Oyl, and Wimpy (who makes his on-screen debut in this short) row to land and set up a cabin. However, while the sailor man hunts for duck for dinner, he soon finds a tribe of native americans attacking him and the log cabin.

While it is nothing special, you have to understand this is the second Popeye cartoon ever made (the first being a Betty Boop cartoon). While some may find native americans as antagonists to be politically incorrect, I thought it was done in a comedic style (besides, there are other media that portray native Americans as savages, both in and after the year this was made), as Popeye uses his strength and brains (one he twists the nose of using his twister punch, three others he bends the arrows of so they shoot their rear ends, which have targets on them as part of the punchline, when he gets the ducks). This has a good story and voice acting, and is worth checking out.
