A Slump Regarding O-Solar-Meow
6 July 2022
O Solar Meow was a Short that began with the Chuck Jones Space Trilogy and Advance and be Mechanized was not a suitable Ending for this trilogy, this is the shortest short of the Chuck Jones Era and Tom and Jerry in General with only 5 Minutes and 52 Seconds but if we remove the Intro and Credits it is only 4 Minutes and 48 Seconds which is a Disgrace for a Tom and Jerry Short.

The theme is the same as the 2 previous shorts, Tom and Jerry in Space, this short is at the same degree as Mouse Into Space because both showed potential losses, or Solar Meow took great advantage of the theme making one of my favorite shorts by Jones, but the Second of the Trilogy was already a drop with respect to O Solar Meow and Advance and be Mechanized is already a Disgrace.

The Animation is Mediocre for a Short by Chuck Jones, the Previous ones had better animation but Advance and be Mechanized presents choppy animation, jerky movements and recycled animation from the previous cartoon such as the chase of the robot cat and the robot mouse, the Colors are still looking good but the animation is worse compared to the other Jones shorts.

Dean Elliot offers much more memorable music than Eugene Poddany (although that doesn't mean that Poddany is a bad composer), the music fits all the scenes and makes the short not so mediocre.

The Voice Acting is nothing to write home about, it's just Laughter and typical Mel Blanc Vocal Effects!.

In itself, Advance and be Mechanized is not the worst of Chuck Jones but it is a disgrace for the Name of Tom and Jerry, It had everything to gain but recycling animation and making weaker movements made this short one of the most mediocre of Jones, but despite that it has some funny scenes and is quite entertaining to watch, for everything I said previously to Advance an be Mechanized I rate it a 6.
