@@michaelfrisby758 lmao do you think people showed on Ellis Island with visas and passports? Immigration was incredibly less limited back then, with a lot less regulations: people would just show up, get registered and that was it.
This is so ironic considering Walt later copyrighted a bunch of characters out of public domain and owns the characters animators create even on their off time by policy
This is really what kills me. Alex Hirsch can't draw his own characters without Disney's permission. Like. What kind of total control on creativity is that?
From a legal standpoint, Disney doesn't completely own the Public Domain characters that they use, they just own their original contributions to the Public Domain characters. Anybody can still make a Cinderella or a Rapunzel movie, they just can't use what Disney added to the story, and have to either use or add to the original.
The more successful someone is, the less I trust them - just too many stories where the big names we know about didn’t actually do the important work, had the initial idea, contributed to the crucial innovation... however, they have the money to paint their biopics in pretty colours and almost everyone forgets who really brought us Mickey Mouse.
Walt Disney was successful because he worked his ass off, his success was his own because he earned it. Would he turn into a bit of scoundrel? ab-so-loot-lee, but not without legitimate reason. The man fought tooth and and nail to keep his company afloat for years. He was damn good at his job and that's all I really want to remember him for.
Cult Leader Greg Walt Disney was a massive racist and disgrace as a human being, just because you want to remember someone a certain way doesn’t mean that’s who they are.
Cult Leader Greg you do realize that is own grandniece has stated that he was and still is. The Jungle Book was written during and response to segregation and pushing the message of “staying with your own kind” go ahead and watch whatever glorifying doc you want doesn’t erase the literal bullshit he put people through
I agree with everyone in the comments saying Ub Iwerks deserves more credit, but make no mistake, Disney fans know this man. Walt drew the original design for Mortimer Mouse, but his wife decided that was a lame name for a kid's cartoon and Ub developed the character more. Ub is a Disney legend.
Whoever does the scores to these drunk history episodes is incredibly good - the "when you wish upon a star" legally-distinct pastiche in this thing is amazing.
Never get so consumed by your passion that you forget about the business. Iwerk, Tesla, Wozniak, all of these guys are geniuses but they forgot to protect their work. Disney got burned once and learned his lesson. At the end of the day, what use is a legacy if you can't pay your bills
That's a fair point. i've been meaning to learn more about animation history, but from I know at the moment, it does seem that Disney was just a sharper businessman than his rivals/ peers.
That's a good history lesson. I never knew of Ub Iwerks. I'm glad I know about him know. Dude basically created Mickey and kept Disney in business after Walt got bamboozled for Oswald the Lucky Rabbit.
Of all the animators that left Disney to work on the Oswald cartoons after walt lost control of the character Ub iWerks is the only one who didn’t betray Walt which in turn led to the creation of Mickey Mouse. Walt failed to show ub iWerks the respect he deserved
After UB Iwerks left Disney he created flip the frog who was the only cartoon character that was forgotten, after his series discontinued he returned back to Disney. As a bonus you can find flip the frog as a cameo at the story of a mouse in Disney plus.
Especially sitting beside a white women right behind him.. If that did happened sad to say he was the entertainment for the after party.. Smh movie and a picnic
Ub also created the multiplane camera which basically changed the whole way animated films looked(it allowed them to look more 3d and allowed for different effects). The reason the little mermaid was able to look the way it did was due to Ub's multiplane camera. Animation is done digitally now but literally the multiplane camera still exists via animation software. Ub also never really sought fame and just really loved his craft and invention. I respect the hell out of Ub and animation would be drastically different without him.
I'm disappointed that Mary Winkler, female film distributor and Charle Mintz's wife who gave him his tyrannical power, and Lillian Disney, who was responsible for inking and naming Mickey in several shorts with several other loyal female employees, were not mentioned in the story. But this is Ub's story so let it rip!
@@devinkk Bosko came after mickey. But all those rubber hose stars are clones of felix the cat. But felix was based on charlie chaplin while his clones were based on minstrel shows.
Ub didn't quit working with Disney because he wanted him to draw on a napkin...he quit working with Disney because Disney was taking credit for everything Ub did.
How about the story of how Disney plagiarized Kimba the White Lion, turned it into The Lion King, promoted their carbon copy as Disney's first original animated film, then suppressed Kimba's screening in the US?
Technically Ub didn't come up with Mickey Mouse, he just redrafted Mickey's design to something that was manageable to animate. Walt had to think of a backup plan after Oswald was just taken from him, he was with his wife on a train back to LA from New York, and it was there he created Mickey. While Walt was creative and a great entrepreneur, he lacked the art skills to be presentable. That was all on Ub, but Ub's legacy was never dismissed and is acknowledged for his work in Disney franchise, including designing the Mouse himself.
I LOVE Ub Iwerks, he created the Design of Mickey Mouse... But this video is just rewriting history. Walt came up with the idea of Synchronized sound that made Mickey blow up...
We had to learn about this in film school. My teacher also mentioned that in an episode of Ren and Stimpy, Stimpy is doing a ritual dancing on the edge of a vat of lard, shouting supposedly random nonsense, and one of the things he babbles out is "Ub Iwerks"
Okay.. I was born and raised in orlando fl, my aunt and uncle retired from disney world, and I know almost every disney movie by heart. But this is my first time ever hearing about Ub. Poor guy
I don't think it's surprising Tony Hale is in this since he was in three Disney proprieties this year (Forky in _Toy Story 4_ , Pie King in _Star vs. the Forces of Evil_ and that Veep frog in _Amphibia_ )
or guys are like: This is drunk history!? Well I gotta get Drunk, Man! and the gals are like: I'm really drunk with this one drink,.. let's do this ( but aren't really )
My favorite animator ever, right next to Max and Dave. And their crazy cat Cab... I'm starting to wonder if my Oswald the rabbit cartoons worth any money now...
I love drunk history but as a Disney fan, I need to correct this video. Walt Disney saw a mice running on a train and he sketched it and that’s how he came up with Mickey Mouse (originally named Mortimer Mouse until Walt’s wife changed it)
From what I remember, Walt went bankrupt for sometime and sat on the streets, then one day a mouse wandered out next to him, he took it into his drawing studio with him and kept it as a pet for a few days
Actually Walt befriended a mouse who lived in the office he kept in KC. Story goes that when Walt left, he took the mouse and set it free behind the office building so another tenant's cat wouldn't hurt it.
Many years later, Disney would buy back Oswald from Universal when they traded the rights to Oswald for moving sportscaster Al Michaels from ABC to NBC.
@Homeslice Heroes they did a lot they uhh.....they put him in 2 games and.......put him in Disney world.......only to not use him again......he made a cameo and uh....ok they do nothing with Oswald
My son is autistic likes the game Disney Epic Mickey... when he likes something a lot it then becomes an obsession.. Asking me all different questions about Walt Disney. Why this?and why that?

Había escuchado que Ub aprovechando la huelga en los estudios Disney regresa. Pero no fue asignado como jefe de animación ya su animación era "anticuada" (perteneciente a la primera fase de los dibujos animados) Y que por ello fue asignado al departamento de efectos especiales donde demostró, una vez más, su genio.
I find it funny that Walt was mad that universal had Oswald the rabbit but little does everyone know that Walt had like 12 characters that were literally stolen off other people including Oswald. The public hated Walt Disney but finally he created 'Mickey Mouse' which was half stolen half not. Then because of sync sound the audience didn't hate Disney anymore. Then since then Disney has been stealing old tales and making it theirs but it's okay because those stories are 'copyright free'. Also Disney is the one that changed all of the copyright laws to benefit them. Although I appreciate them as a company they are very scummy.
I'm not one to defend walt, he was a shitty person. BUT - everyone fundamentally misunderstands how the animation industry works. Walt was a PRODUCER. He got credit for everything because he was the mastermind. He didnt do any of it - he delegated it. He learned quickly that he had zero art talent. But he was a BORN storyteller and innovator and a crazy hard worker. Disney wouldve never existed without walt. Theres a reason Iwerk didnt work (lol). Animators arent necessarily good at plot and direction.
I'm pretty sure the main cause for Iworks Animation shutting down was because it heavily struggled during the 30's. Also Flip the Frog wasn't as iconic as the Disney characters.

"You could give me the deed to Kansas City and I still wouldn't stay there" - Walt Disney
Being from Kansas City, this is untrue. He came back frequently and was proud of his Midwest roots.
Walt created the original sketch of Mickey tho on a train. His wife told him not to name the character Mortimer but Mickey instead.
There are several different interpretations of Mickey Mouse's origin. This is one of many.
I feel like Derek kinda owned at his role as “douchey Universal producer”
I always thought he was called Mortimer mouse first
He was, but Walt's wife Lillian suggested the name change.

And how they changed his look multiple times before they settled on the original.
the fade onto the poster was really good
Love the discount "When you wish upon a star" music at the beginning lol.

Dude finally asked what we were wondering this whole time, “what the f kind of name’s UB?”
His full name was Ubbe Ert Iwwerks.
Not too far from the truth, actually. Ub may have been able to draw better than Walt, but, personality-wise, Mickey was all Walt.

That last line -- exactly what I was wondering through the whole video..
Aw that's cool that you put the kid from Red State in there!!!!! Also Tony is still killing it!
Ub was the G.O.A.T. Wouldn't be any Disney without him.
Reminds me of the story of Diane Keane, the basis of the movie Big Eyes.
I love drunk history but as a Disney fan, I need to correct this video. Walt Disney saw a mice running on a train and he sketched it and that’s how he came up with Mickey Mouse (originally named Mortimer Mouse until Walt’s wife changed it)
That's what I thought, then Ub started to develop Mickey even more.
True, Walt came up with the initial concept with the final more recognizable design being done by Iwerks
And precisely that's why Walt is/was the creator of Mickey. Not Ub Iwerks as actual interests are trying so hard to entablish
From what I remember, Walt went bankrupt for sometime and sat on the streets, then one day a mouse wandered out next to him, he took it into his drawing studio with him and kept it as a pet for a few days

I'm sitting on my bed watching this while also wearing a Mickey Mouse shirt, jacket, and watch.
Didn’t Max Fleischer create rotoscoping?
And Disney and Ub weren’t the first to have synchronized sound and animation, once again, that was Max
he's that guy who portrayed Alex in Home Alone 3 and Max Keeble's Big Moves
oh how time flies
"I will never not own a character" Welcome to the future where Disney owns pretty much all movies
Mickey mousing is still a musical term taught at universities. How interesting that Ub Iwerks was the one to think of that style 😄
I'm suprised he didn't mention Mortimer, Mickey's first nme before his wife made him change it
That was Walt wife not Ub
Who else is a Disney nerd and knew about this already?
Walt Disney was a douchebag tho.
The facts are not all on point here, sadly.
I know more about the whole "Reforming the public image of the Nazis" and "EPCOT centre was Walt's vision of a fascist American future".
My son is autistic likes the game Disney Epic Mickey...
when he likes something a lot it then becomes an obsession..

Why this?and why that? Didn’t have a bloody clue!!
He died about 25 years before I was born.
every time he asked me something my answer was “I don’t know?”

I'm pretty sure the main cause for Iworks Animation shutting down was because it heavily struggled during the 30's. Also Flip the Frog wasn't as iconic as the Disney characters.

Ub just kinda reminds me of that magician comedy sketch

Side note: Tony Hale (Ub) is now a premium player at Disney: hocus pocus 2, Toy Story 4 and inside out 2. I’m sure we’ll see him in more projects
