By Felix, this was the FIRST episode of Felix the cat that I ever saw. I'm already 23, but since then, Felix remained one of my favorite cartoon characters. Sue me, I seriously like him better than Mickey Mouse and Bugs Bunny. That and he's adorable.
Me too! This and Bold King Cole was first Felix the Cat cartoons I've seen as a kid, I used to have the two of them on a VHS tape but in Spanish with two Merrie Melodies shorts. And this cartoon short is about to turn 84 on my birthday this Friday!
1936 huh? And the beginning of the episode is when Felix gives gold coins to the poor. This relates to the Great Depression during that time period. But lending gold coins is just like the soup kitchen. How nice of Felix.
The moral is good kind hearted people will always prevail, whilst evil is thoroughly punished. The first 3 minutes had Felix using the golden goose to donate to the poor rather than keep it for himself, while Capitain Kidd wanted all the gold for himself.
"I take what I want and I want what I take!" My favorite quote from this show! My grandma and grandpa had this on a VHS tape and I watched it when I was little
*sigh* how I miss watching these cartoons. I'm 19 going on 20 in some months and I just adore these. Nostalgia hits a home run. I used to have a DVD with Popeye and few Felix Cat episodes and the on time for music to movement is just great.
God I remember watching this when I was a kid. It's been like 15 years since I've seen this. I had it on VHS, lost it, forgot the name, stumbled upon it on TH-cam just now. Wow the flood of memories lol.
i remember having this on a vhs called '12 of the greatest cartoons'. the one after this was the casper one where he befriended the little fox lol but this brings back memories when i was like 3 - 5. :') thanks for unloading!!
That Casper cartoon fucked me up psychologically as a child. The first one I believe was daffy duck and the caveman. Ahhh good times Ohh it had Popeye and the ghosts too
🎵Oh, we take what we want and we want what we take For we're pirates out hunting for treasure! If we need any gold, we steal it away, Robbing widows and orphans of pleasure! We fight with our hands, we cuss and shoot, We're mean and we're bad from our hats to our boots. We take what we want and we want what we take For we're pirates out hunting for treasure!🎵
Clicked this by accident and completely forgot that I saw this on a VHS with a bunch of other cartoons as a kid. Memory unlocked! Thank you for the upload!
It has to be a good 20 years since the last time I watched this! I used to watch my Felix movie with a bunch of other episodes and this one religiously! Forgot about it until now!
5:16 to 5:32 - Felix, you are a total badass. And at 6:22, I thought you were going to rush to save the bad guy from a nasty fall despite what he had done, and be a goody two shoes like any more recent cartoon hero, but.... nope! You were only rushing to LENGTHEN his fall! I imagine after that GASP! that Felix's thoughts were on the line of "Oh no! He's a bad guy, but he's about to fall 30 feet!..... there! Now it's 45 feet instead." A hardcore badass who doesn't have mercy on his enemies. Holy crap. You could probably hold your own against Popeye like that! Who knew?
oh my god!!!! i remember this when i was little i had all the tapes...i use to watch this all the time!!! i just love the old times in the 90's!!! this is an unexplainable feeling im having right now!!!
Yes, you're right. Cartoons these days can be done by a small crew in a couple of days. When this was made it took hundreds of people painstakingly drawing one cell, frame by frame. Then they had hundreds of painters, background artists, and they probably only made 7cents an hour.
+CHICKEN SALAD definitely makes me appreciate it a lot more. no offense but i feel like cartoons these days are pretty lazy in most aspects. but oh well. that's just me
When I was a very little kid in the 90s I first saw this film of Felix from the 30s. This Film got me into Felix the cat! I loved -and still do- how Felix could turn himself into a canon ball and launch himself to the pirate ship all to save his friend! And fight a giant pirate dog with a sword fight. It just made so much scary as a kid. It was unlike a Petter Pan movie, Felix could not fly away from the sword. But Felix was still willing to fight! :D Ever since then I looked for more Felix films or anything I could find of Felix. As a kid I did not Like the 60s Felix I just couldn't like it. (now I don't hate the 60s Felix now I watched them all I could find there are still missing ones) I as a kid watched the 90s version of "twisted tales of Felix the cat" (I couldn't watch all of them as a Kid since as a kid I only had some episodes on VHS) it was ok I like the episode's. but it didn't spark the love I felt of the 30s Felix film I loved as a child. ( I also found Baby Felix as a kid and I was like Nope Not gonna even watch THAT No WAY! Im scared of Baby talking show's. ^^; ) Till one day when I was a Teenager I got a DVD of Felix. --(I was very new to the technology of DVD's and did not know there was a -more- button on the DVD. my sister yelled at how could I not know! )--- I click it and Found Felix the cat in Black and White silent film's. I fell in Love! (Later I found out Felix was older then Mickey mouse! Felix was made in year 1919 while Mickey was made in year 1928! Witch was great news for me! Why? well I had a fear of Mickey when I was a child Ive gotten over that fear but it dose'nt mean I have to Love that mouse!) Till now I just Love Silent Film Felix and this film! :D and once again I got to see Felix turn himself into a canon ball and launch himself into the air! And thats the story how I fell in Love with Felix! :3
I know that I'm a little out of age for this but I'm 15 and I used to watch Felix all the time it was 90%of my vhs tapes and out of all of then this one was my favorite. 2000s kid or not this is one of the best cartoons ever
Interesting how Winston Sharples did the music here, and then later on he'd go to "score" the 1959-1961 "Felix the Cat" animated series (I say "score" in quotation marks because he only wrote some original music cues and recycled many of his previous Famous Studios cartoon scores in that series.)
That face Felix made when he was hugging Goldie and that knocking was at the door is priceless! I died laughing! I rewound it because i never noticed it as a kid. His face was like, "Man, whoda fuck at mah do' NAH?! I jus finished givin' out money for that day. Damn!" Lol thanks for uploading! I love how the animators put so much work into that particular facial expression! They don't make 'em like they used to! Kudos to old-school cel animation!
It's fun to realise just how egregiously these old cartoons ignored reality. If anyone had a goose which laid golden eggs that fast and distributed the gold so freely, the price of gold would quickly plummet so that the gold coins would be almost worthless.
Leah B No. theses sorts of cartoons would be shown in cinemas which would be the only way to view these cartoons despite their length of less than 10minutes until mainstream television became more affordable and profitable in the 50’s or 60’s when people could afford to buy a set.
I remember having a very vague memory of felix the cat knowing that there was a cat that reminded me of mickey mouse but the only thing i could remember was this episode from 4:08 onwards im glad i finally remember a gold point of my childhood :D
My favorite memories of this episode are of Captain Kidd, since I always used to wonder if the character was a version of a real Captain Kidd. Now, finally, I Google'd it, and among the results was a Wikipedia link. I read everything mentioned about him and his history as a pirate, up to his death, and from having an idea from Felix the Cat however similar or different and compared what I read about him at Wikipedia, and it is very interesting, and a long real course of his life as a pirate, but shortened at Wikipedia. It wasn't just about him stealing gold or in 1 part of the globe, or the same ship always or the same crew. And for anybody who still likes or misses this episode of Felix the Cat, I would suggest they read about Captain Kidd. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Kidd
Well, it's 84 years now so that's fun. This was definitely one of my favorite cartoons when I was younger, not that I'm old or anything I'm turning 17 this year, but the nostalgia that RADIATES off of this episode for me is immense and it makes me happy

Also my first episode and tbh the only cartoon that ties with this cartoon for me anyways, is Tom and Jerry
Same. This was always a classic.
@@lisettegarcia7013 ikr same!!
I watched this on VHS when I was little =)
Connor Robinson same!

Connor Robinson me too! I had a VHS with two Felix the Cat episodes; this and King Cole along with two Merrie Melodies shorts but in Spanish.

Starfire★Uchiha I would give money to the poor if I had the money to do so
This relates to 2019 and forever
@@georgebarbosa9893 how right you are sir.
I love how the motion actually hits every single rhythm, and........Felix looks so confidence!!! and adorable~~~
6:18 the most ummm, majestic scream ever.
Nox Xelor
Nox Xelor dead af🤣🤣🤣
Me when I yawn.
I heard that majestic scream about 20 years ago. It’s been in my head ever since.
The moral is good kind hearted people will always prevail, whilst evil is thoroughly punished. The first 3 minutes had Felix using the golden goose to donate to the poor rather than keep it for himself, while Capitain Kidd wanted all the gold for himself.
I used to have the tape; this cartoon is fresh in my mind
Same!
dave M. I used to have the tape too
I had the tape too, but it was in French. Simply fantastic.
dave M.
Micky Liveari me too but in Spanish with another Felix short called King Cole, along with two different Merrie Melodies shorts.
"I take what I want and I want what I take!" My favorite quote from this show! My grandma and grandpa had this on a VHS tape and I watched it when I was little
i love felix voice actor in this one
papaduck71 1 the voice actor sounds so cute X3
That's Walter Tetley doing his voice. Tetley is best known as the voice of Sherman in the Mr. Peabody segments from Rocky & Bullwinkle.
I love how much Felix loves Goldie as a friend, and not her eggs
Such a kind boy
Captain Pirate Kidd is arguably the best villain I ever seen!
It's crazy how realistic the backgrounds in classic cartoons look, the look like paintings with cartoon characters over them
That's pretty much what they are.
Classic cartoons just can't be beat.
I like the pirates' song. I've ended up randomly singing to myself every now and then ever since I first saw this cartoon in the spring of 1987.
*sigh* how I miss watching these cartoons. I'm 19 going on 20 in some months and I just adore these. Nostalgia hits a home run. I used to have a DVD with Popeye and few Felix Cat episodes and the on time for music to movement is just great.
Was it a slide in case? With popcorn on the other side?
I love classic cartoons
God I remember watching this when I was a kid. It's been like 15 years since I've seen this. I had it on VHS, lost it, forgot the name, stumbled upon it on TH-cam just now. Wow the flood of memories lol.
ahhhh takes me back when cartoons made sense!
We had this on VHS when I was small, used to watch it all through the 80's! It's amazing home much I remember of it
i remember having this on a vhs called '12 of the greatest cartoons'. the one after this was the casper one where he befriended the little fox lol but this brings back memories when i was like 3 - 5. :') thanks for unloading!!
+nikane Yep, that is how I grew up with these cartoons too. Little LuLu, Baby Huey, and Casper :)
That Casper cartoon fucked me up psychologically as a child. The first one I believe was daffy duck and the caveman. Ahhh good times
Ohh it had Popeye and the ghosts too

I used to love watching these episodes when i was little! Im amazed that this goes as far back as the 1930s, im only 16!
i love how everything is on a beat like a musical... i love felix the cat

THANK YOU!!!!
The only Felix the Cat cartoon I saw as a kid. And it was totally my favourite cartoon back then.
This is one of the first, if not _the_ first cartoon I ever watched as a kid. God I miss those simpler days 😢
Clicked this by accident and completely forgot that I saw this on a VHS with a bunch of other cartoons as a kid. Memory unlocked! Thank you for the upload!
I think this was the first Felix cartoon I’ve ever seen. It was one of those bargain bin VHS tapes. I liked it though!
Same! My dad bought me a vhs called the 50 greatest cartoons of all time!
I had this on VHS when I was a kid!
This is my favorite Felix
It has to be a good 20 years since the last time I watched this! I used to watch my Felix movie with a bunch of other episodes and this one religiously! Forgot about it until now!

notcyndi Yeah, somebody should do a "Thug Life" clip of it.
45calebt More like Cat Life.
notcyndi So Alpha.
notcyndi thanks
Who asked you to dissect what happened in the cartoon?
oh my god!!!! i remember this when i was little i had all the tapes...i use to watch this all the time!!! i just love the old times in the 90's!!! this is an unexplainable feeling im having right now!!!
Back when animation was hand drawn cell by cell with no computers. Thank you for this. ROCK ON!!!!
Yes, you're right. Cartoons these days can be done by a small crew in a couple of days.

great...... they don't make 'em like they used to...... thank you xxxx
Felix the Cat causes inflation
i remember watching this on a vhs when i was about 4 or 5
I remember watching this on an every VHS tape at the age of 2 or 3 years old
True Masterpiece
Goose that can lay golden eggs. So cute!
I enjoy this kind of Felix cartoons
This is arguably the darkest Felix cartoon not counting the movie.
The old Felix Cartoons are so Awesome!
The pirate song is fucking awesome!
I've had it stuck in my head since I was like 6 years old, haha.
Purdy Ranks "I take what I want and I want what I take". Thug Life.
Best pirate song ever
i miss this show soo much! i watched this all the time as a kid and now it's gone :(
Watching these old cartoons, I get all these feelings that I don't know how to put into words. They're all good, though.
The sword clanging and the pegleg pooking really completes the music in the sword fight
5:59 "WHY YOU LITTLE-"
I was expecting the pirate to strangle Felix... if you know what I mean
Like Homer Simpson to Bart.
5:59
Great quality version. I'm very impressed.
0:48 TMP host: Good work Audience, keep it up!
And then the gold's value plummeted to hell.
Odd Cumeron Felix tried to do good but just jacked up their entire economy
Odd Cumeron XD
Socialism
Despite this show being around during my grand father's time, I really enjoyed it when I was a kid. I'm 23 now
I love these classic cartoons.
Man this was one of my favorite cartoons that were on one of my 4 dvd's of old cartoons.
Nothing like some good old nostalgia for the holidays
6:04 that "Ahhhh" though
"You can't protect her Felix, anymore then you can protect... Yourself😈!"
This is my first time watching a felix the cat cartoon and I'm enjoying it
Interesting how Winston Sharples did the music here, and then later on he'd go to "score" the 1959-1961 "Felix the Cat" animated series (I say "score" in quotation marks because he only wrote some original music cues and recycled many of his previous Famous Studios cartoon scores in that series.)
when I was a stupid little kid I thought Felix was a girl because of his high pitched voice
You're not the only one.
I thought that too, I was 6 when I saw this one and the king Cole one too and I really thought that he was a girl
0:52 and thus, inflation was born.
I remember Felix the cat he made great cartoons and videogames for the Nintendo entertainment system and game boy
I love the goose and felix
7:06 My Reaction that Disney+ is born and Netflix will be gone.
Note: I own nothing.
I wish there were such a goose :( but felix would be the only one who could be entrusted with it though. Some people would be too greedy with it.
this is so wierd that they made this so many years ago and it exactly what will happen in the years to come.thanks felix
I love every nostalgic moment where almost every action they make is to the rythymn of the music.
My mother watched this show when she was my age.
Ah I use to watch this a whole lot back when I had the VHS tape in the mid 90's. Good times.
how nostalgic i remember this being my favorite cartoon when i was 4
0:52 Here's a clip of Felix The Cat killing Goldie's baby geese from 1936.
That face Felix made when he was hugging Goldie and that knocking was at the door is priceless! I died laughing! I rewound it because i never noticed it as a kid. His face was like, "Man, whoda fuck at mah do' NAH?! I jus finished givin' out money for that day. Damn!" Lol thanks for uploading! I love how the animators put so much work into that particular facial expression! They don't make 'em like they used to! Kudos to old-school cel animation!

5:59 A Quote from The Simpsons.
Wow i remember watching this one a lot as a kid!
I'm surprised I remember this so well. It's been way too long since I last saw this.
yaaay i love this cartoon :D I got it on vhs along w/ a bunch of other old cartoons, but this one is so great :D
Oh I have searched for this video for a long time!! good old times
"WHY YOU LITTLE-!"
"ARRRGH"
I love old cartoons !
great cartoon and a very decent soundtrack too
Really good❤
I remember this as a kid, brings back memories
Same
was this really from '36? Did they have TVS back then!?
Leah B No. theses sorts of cartoons would be shown in cinemas which would be the only way to view these cartoons despite their length of less than 10minutes until mainstream television became more affordable and profitable in the 50’s or 60’s when people could afford to buy a set.
Yeah they did since 1928
Yes but it would be shown in Cinemas. I however have a tape of this cartoon but in Spanish with the Bold King Cole one.
This is my favorite felix the cat short! I hated the pirate captain kidd.Glad he got what he deserved.
wow i have this on tape, i had no idea it was this old!
Yes!!! I remember this from when I was young!
Put it on 2x and wow Felix is a hard worker
Edit: I’m not insulting I’m just tellin’ ya
I remember having a very vague memory of felix the cat knowing that there was a cat that reminded me of mickey mouse but the only thing i could remember was this episode from 4:08 onwards im glad i finally remember a gold point of my childhood :D

I used to own this on VHS when I was little :)
im only twelve but i still love these old shows
80 years old now!
Well, it's 84 years now so that's fun. This was definitely one of my favorite cartoons when I was younger, not that I'm old or anything I'm turning 17 this year, but the nostalgia that RADIATES off of this episode for me is immense and it makes me happy
1:06 That guy got in line twice lol
