It feels like You're hanging out with your mates and just chillin. I feel like I can grab a beer and just relax with you guys. Such a good friendship and such genuine people. Never change.
The funny thing is this video was recorded in 2009... I was a freshman in high school and can still recall Cartoon Network showing classic Looney Tunes cartoons for an hour or two in the morning during the summer.
protoman111 same I was born in 98. You would be surprised to see most of the stuff on Boomerang now is newer cartoons that have been cancelled like Regular Show and Adventure Time. I’m not even sure if they play the classics anymore.
@@durhamrockerzarchive7034 Not exactly surprised. The last time I had Cable (this was 5 years ago to be fair), I was seeing things like Chowder which wasn't that old at the time; definitely wouldn't consider that "classic" by any means (at least at the time).
The thing about these clunkier formats is that it makes the watching of a movie or listening to a record more of an event, you are less likely to be distracted when you put some effort into it as well.
I don't care what anyone says, this is what Saturday morning is all about. It's so sad that there is no network that does this anymore. At least there are other mediums to watch these classics on rather than cable.
That's the redeeming quality of this era.. shows that are actually good and not determined and funded by ratings and trends. I always wonder why Nickelodeon doesn't have that honest feature to it anymore.. until it hit me those people no longer walk those halls.. and the content creators were cool hippies grown up into their 30 trying to entertain us. People like James and others hold up that pure honest era.. but direct to us without some Network determining what's good for the stock market. I love it.. and then you can go watch those films they discuss within a few clicks
Small world hey? But yeah, I agree with you a hundred percent. Back when I was a kid, I used to love Saturday Morning cartoon blocks while they lasted. Unfortunately, they weren't very common on basic cable where I live, but by the we downgraded to that from satellite they were being either replaced with new line ups or removed altogether. Like when Fox Kids was replaced by the Fox Box, I didn't like it whatsoever. And when Warner Bros ended up stopping theirs altogether, I basically lost interest since those where I could see all my favorite cartoons. I've been meaning to track down the shows that I've enjoyed to relive those times again.
I wish adult cartoons today are more like cartoons from the 40s. No explicit sexual content, no exaggerated gore and stuffs, just subtle jokes that kids would appreciate but adults will appreciate more.
16 mm, when exposed properly and projected properly, looks great. It can reach at least 2k equivalent resolution (Not a 1 to 1 comparison) and it often has a higher dynamic range. Digital cameras are recently catching up to having a similar dynamic range and only in the higher end cameras. (Basically the film is able to capture a wider range of light values). Then there is the grain vs digital noise comparison. Sure grain looks more pleasant to a lot of people because it feels more ‘authentic’ but it also doesn’t stay in one place relative to the screen like digital noise does. These features are impossible to see through a youtube video, and it helps to have well shot/printed/stored film. I recommend that if anyone gets the chance to see real film projection to check it out.
To each his own I guess...I still prefer to play SNES games on my Wii U/PC than having to deal with cartidges, consoles with old outputs and worn-out controllers.

Watched a lot of these in the 80s and 90s as a kid. Always enjoyable. The editing and especially the sound fx were top notch for the era they were made. A lot of those sounds still used today 70 years later.
Just love this "Raw Content" this "B Side Roll" thank you Cinemassacre crew for all of this great back to the past memories. Also, I'm 34 and remember most of these cartoons.
Im 35 and I loooove looney tunes and Popeye. I grew up watching them with my grandpa. He watched looney tunes and the original Scooby Doo cartoons til the day he died. That's going to happen to me too. Ill watch looney tunes til the day I die

So glad these vids came back in some form. It's nice seeing James and Mike just show their collection and it's clear that they enjoy the collecting. I think it's a feeling that most of can relate to. Just sharing what they love to others.
I've been looking for this a while, I remember watching it back in the day! Glad you reuploaded. I have two books that talk about the old Warner Brother cartoons: Chuck Amuck, The Wonderful World of Chuck Jones, and Bugs Bunny Fifty Years and Only One Grey Hare.
Glad they re-uploaded this video. I remember it being on Cinemassacre’s website. Don’t know if it’s still there or not as it’s been awhile since I’ve been over at the website, but I remember this video was on TH-cam, on this channel if I recall correctly many years ago, but it was later removed. Not sure why that was, but at least it’s back now.
James & Mike, I've been a fan and subscriber since the ninja turtles avgn episode lol thank you both for the years of entertainment- also, it's nice seeing you guys friendship, its awesome to know the many things you both enjoy together, treasure it - like we all know you both do - especially during these times. Stay safe and healthy you two.
In the 70s, I saw a lot of these old cartoons on weekdays after school. Saturday morning was the time for new cartoons, after school was the time for the vintage classics.
I remember watching this back in the day on cinemassacre , i was jealous then and still jealous now. My uncle had one of these and he would play it on birthday parties. Left a big impression. It was probably what made me become a cartoonist.
I was a kid in the mid 2000's and in Canada they usually had The Bugs Bunny & Tweety Show on weekday evenings. I fell in love with those cartoons and always looked forward to them.
Wow, just seeing an old projector, it reminds me of the time that I worked as a projectionist for a movie theatre before we went digital. It was really fun building up movies, actually holding the movies in your hands was a great feeling. Just seeing that reel brought back lots of memories.
Not to mention James was wearing his Rolling Rock on his face..same reason I shouldn't drink. How I envy my 40oz. casualty homies and their inabilty to ever gain a pound.
A family story I hold close is whenever I hear about me, as an infant who didnt really understand language, and my Great-Grandfather, who only spoke Korean, would watch Tom and Jarry and laugh and bond because we could watch them and not have to worry about a language barrier.
I remember people showing me these reels as a kid. I was always a humongous history nut. This is a really special treat! Thanks for showing us your guys's collections!
You guys are very passionate about this and it shows in your work and its great you have all this old stuff great work guys much respect to james and mike
It looks it has been donated from a local TV station that used to ran cartoons in mornings and afternoons back in the 1970’s and 1980’s when local TV stations ran cartoons via film chains. That was long before they had video master tapes.
Thanks for showing the film canisters, also love the scratches on the film that you can’t find anywhere else. As for Boomerang, I grew up with it on Direct TV and Dish but now it’s a mobile app you pay for.
These are films that they usually given from schools, libraries, and TV stations back in the 1970’s and 1980’s. TV stations back in those days used Telecine equipment to run cartoons, TV shows, and movies are what they called these days, film chains.
Awesome vid!! And im not myself, into collecting cinema or reels but I completely understand what you guys were trying to get across n explain, why you guys rather have the authentic way to watch a film regardless of things not being as great to people who would much rather watch something on DVD but it's the nostalgia of it and there's just something about getting the rawer form of something and to appreciate it like they do!!
Really appreciate this video. I’ve never seen this episode. It was very chill and informative. So how does sound work on film? Is the sound on the film also? Sorry for my ignorance. Hope everyone is relaxing and please do more episodes like this.
There is a sound strip on the side of the film. Glad you enjoyed the video, its an old one. I'll post some of our old content from time to time when I feel its a good time. Thanks for watching
I was wondering the same thing but I remember my friend in high school explained it to me exactly like Mike said. Glad it was accurate information! Seeing these old clips really brings us back to the past. What was your very first episode of you playing a video game Mike? Which game was it? Is it on the youtube site?
The sound is recorded optically. The projector shines a very thin beam of light through the soundtrack which is on the left side of the film. The visual info turns into audio signal via a light sensitive cell. It is a genius concept honestly! The resulting sound has a certain crispy quality to it, that no other recording medium could reproduce…
I remember watching this on the Cinemassacre website about 5 years or so ago. Over in the UK, we used to get these old cartoons usually on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon around 3 to 4pm on ITV CH3 in the early to mid 90's.
Growing up we had this ancient theatre from the 40s that was awesome. It was just one massive screen and in my entire life I never saw the seating filled, only the center seats were ever available with the sides(2/3s of the theatre) taped off. That's how big it was. Another cool feature was the concession area was just behind the seating so you could get up and fuck about in line getting snacks while still watching the film, sort of like at the drive-in but with sound. One big open concept movie theatre that was impossible to get lost in. They would even periodically flash little reminders to hit the snack bar on the screen during the film. Tickets were cheap too! Anyways, they used to always play cartoons before and after every matinee so when you were a kid it was the thing to arrive an hour early with your friends so you could screw around watching Daffy and Goofy, running amok in the world's largest living room and getting spun on soda and candy before settling down for the main event. Afterwards, the parents took their time socializing before wrangling us monsters into the car. You made a whole day of it! Such a special experience 😊!
I miss these old Cinemaassacre rando videos. It just feels like we're hanging out with the guys.

You feel very comfortable watching them. Like you're there.
