Error in Baseball Bugs

[frogboxer]

(No pun intended by the title of this thread.)

I was watching "Baseball Bugs" the other day and noticed a mistake in the cartoon that I thought was rather obvious: the Gas House Gorillas are the visiting team but they're the ones at bat in the bottom of the ninth. How could I not have noticed this before??

I've noticed mistakes in LTs, too.

In the Bugs Bunny cartoon where he replaces the Easter Bunny (who fakes illness to get Bugs to deliver the eggs for him), at one point Bugs is talking as a bratty kid hits his head BUT BUGS' LIPS WEREN'T ANIMATED!

Considering that the animators at WB had to animate something like 25 feet of film per week -- cheap boss, tight budget, tighter schedules --, there were liable to be slip-ups and things that couldn't be fixed at the last minute.

I don't think anybody animates 25 feet of film per week today. Heck, even back in the 1940s the Disney crew supposedly never had teams that ever regularly broke more than 5 feet of film per week.

Another one that's always bothered the Bugs out of me can be found in "Kitty Kornered": While the cats are doing their Teddy Roosevelt charge, are they in fact running down the stairs, up the stairs, or through the fifth and sixth dimensions?!??!!???

Hard to stop the eyes from playing ping-pong after that one. :ham: :sylvester :ham: :sylvester

I have noticed those before to.

I actually haven't seen Baseball Bugs in quite some time, so I never noticed. But yeah, I have noticed animation and continuity mistakes in Looney Tunes shorts before, such as Bugs's "stoned" look in that one part of Bugs And Thugs, the use of a different figure for Daffy in the title card for Thumb Fun than in the actual cartoon, the mice in the bleachers being able to abruptly zip away from Sylvester during Mexican Cat Dance (even though Speedy is supposedly the only mouse fast enough to escape him), as well as Giovanni Jones's new hair coloring at the end of Long-Haired Hare. Also, in the mid/late-60s cartoons, there were what weren't animation mistakes but examples of lazy artwork/sound design. Such as in Mucho Locos, when El Vulturo has that stick of dynamite blow up on his foot and Daffy Duck's "Ho! Ha Ha!"s from the Robin Hood Daffy clip were used to show him writhing in agony(!).

I noticed today that in Rabbit In Seville after bugs cuts elmer's pans his underwears are red! and after that when the part with the shaving machine elmer's underwears are white!:befuddled

Well, they can't get everything right!!!!

:bugs2:I think that the score in "Baseball Bugs" doesn't remain consistent throughout. Certainly it changes from where the original team was playing to where Bugs takes over. But what the heck? It's not really supposed to make much sense....;)

During the leg-stretching scene in "Baby Bottleneck" Mel mixes up his voices during his ad-libbing, and Daffy has Porky's stutter during one line. Also, that cartoon is filled with painting and cel-level errors and characters that go off model from shot to shot.

In "I Love to Singa," the sign on Jack Bunny's desk reads "JACK BUNNY and his AMATUER HOUR." In a later scene, "amateur" is spelled correctly.

I never noticed any cel-level errors in "Baby Bottleneck". "I Love to Singa", however, is full of them - although that might have been intentional as a setup for the iris out gag (hey, Avery loved that kind of stuff).

I did notice one of those, near the end when the Owls get into the booth to talk to Jolson, the window shading is on top of the characters.

I never noticed any cel-level errors in "Baby Bottleneck". I think there are some where Porky forces Daffy to sit on the egg (it would be easy to make mistakes, since there are no horizontal lines in the background). I think the cartoon is worse when it comes to abrupt cuts, like: the infamous alligator and pig scene, after a baby is sent back to washed it suddenly cuts to Porky and when Daffy says "Yeah I'll have to sit on it" and is about to sit on the egg and then it abruptly cuts to him standing in a different pose (this may of have been intentional though). "The Big Snooze" and "Bacall To Arms" have even more strange cuts in them.

another error in babybottleneck if anyone notices is

the part were porky and daffy are caught in the machinery. is it me or is
somehting wrong with the focus on that part, as we dont' see who was the one who get caught and pulled both in, but the one part, is
were daffy's hat which seems to come in diffent sizes, from small to xx large.

also recently thinking (as with work don't get to watch much tv as of late) but was there any erros in buckaro bugs, i heard of maybe 2, but can't conferm, but though i ask before i view again from a copy just recently give to me.( i am hoping vol 3 has buckaroo on it, as this toon is now become a rarety to find on the air or on video).

another error that may have been missed, i think was in Stage Door,

were bugs is doing the stripteese with elmer ( were elmer tried to hide him and bugs then starts to remove his clothing) anyone notice that Elmers' pants are not correctly animated when they fall, and he standing there.
:befuddled :bugs2:

I took some screenshots of an error I found in Wagon Heels. I think it should be pretty obvious what was supposed to happen in each sequence. The first, Injun Joe's axe should have passed between Porky's "pants" and himself. And the second, the axe should have passed between Porky and his hat.
