Featured review
The opening to "Yodeling Yokels" is so sugary sweet, Diabetics might wanna dkip this one!
"Yodeling Yokels" is a great example why the early films of Looney Tunes were pretty bad and nothing like the clever and sarcastic shorts they did in the 1940s and 50s. Much of the problem was the production team lead by Harmon-Ising. The pair loved singing and cute animals in their cartoons as opposed to humor or edginess...and I must say this particular cartoon is among their worst. It's bereft of humor and filled with stuff that most likely encouraged theater goers to use this film as a chance to buy popcorn or use the bathroom!
When the story (such as it is) begins, Bosko is looking cute...yodeling and skipping about and frolicking. This goes on for some time and eventually some type of conflict occurs when Bosko's girlfriend, Honey, is stuck on a ice floe....sort of like Topsy in "Uncle Tom's Cabin". So, it's up to Bosko to rescue her.
In addition to little, if any humor, as well as the godawful singing, it IS interesting to see all the characters who are spitting images of Mickey Mouse. Obviously the studio was trying to capitalize on the mouse's success...instead of coming up with something the public would actually enjoy. Overall, the animation quality is decent for 1931...otherwise I can't find much I can like about it. Yes, it's THAT dull.
