- At the Hodge Podge Lodge, a crotchety, near-sighted Mister Magoo takes a banjo-playing bear to be his nephew, Waldo. The first Magoo feature. It was made to show in theaters back in the day. September 1949 (UPA)

I love that the bear figures out the banjo completely in under twenty seconds.
Smarter than average, one might say.
I wonder if that is how Rare got the idea of a bear named Banjo, for Banjo-Kazooie.
Mr. Magoo - Ragtime Bear 1949 First Magoo Cartoon 1220pm 19.2.23 no idea why the curmudgeonly aspects of cartoon presentations are enjoyed by myself - whether magoo or Yosemite sam... and to some degree foghorn leghorn.
Damn! That is a NICE looking cartoon. The styling is great. The color superb. But the actually character animation is the star here. It’s not either/or, it’s the whole package. Love it. I sure miss great character animation.
My first time experiencing mr magoo and damn the animation quality is something
I used to watch Mr. Magoo as a kid in the 80's in New York. I was born in '75 and today I shared this cartoon with my 4yr old daughter and 3yr old son. They enjoyed it just as much as much as I did. Thanks for sharing this.
When she gets in her teen years they usually don't want to watch older stuff they want their own stuff with their friends
I love watching Mr. Magoo cartoons before going to school everyday 👍
It's called the Ragtime Bear but most of the riffs the bear plays are Foggy Mountain-style (except for _Oh My Darlin Clementine_ ). Waldo's playing was Ragtime-style, though. I had this episode recorded on VHS as a kid and watched it all the time! 😂😂😂🪕🐻
Yes, that's right. These earlier 'theater-shorts' animations were really made in the late 40s. The TV Show that others remember about Mr. Magoo was done in the late 50s and shown on TV in the Fall of 1960, and of course it was a lot tamer by then. They even produced an animated 'A Christmas Carol' Musical Special for commercial-television. I suppose you can guess what part Mr. Magoo played in that one. ;)
So Mr. Magoo started out as a movie short. I was born in 53' so I remember the TV shows.
Omg that ending had me in tears! No wonder they gave him his own show and became a media darling! Hahahahaha!!!
Mr Magoo is very fun and funny to WATCH!!! I love it.
Thank you. Never saw this first feature before and I thought I saw all of Mr. Magoo animated shorts.
i love mr magoo he keeps me smiling hes so funny thanks for keeping him around
It's not just him it's mostly the DVDs this Olde stuff last centuries
Also the beginning of Banjo from Banjo and Kazooie!
Glad they made character design changes...this Magoo is frightening!
Frank James Jim backus didn't even receive credit. Jerry Hansner pls Waldo
Funny 🤓
6:30, he's even more frightening!
The backgrounds are good though.
He was also a dick.
Early Magoo sure did look mean ... far more so than his later incarnations.
Not only did the character look meaner, none of the vocal inflections from Jim Backus are present, either. Of course it's him providing the voice for MaGoo but it's interesting to hear a mostly straight, less comical vocal performance.
Columbia made UPA soften Magoo up for TV distribution after this. They did it, but they didn't want to, and they thought he was too soft afterward. So soft friendly Magoo is literally the embodiment of executive meddling. I kinda like mean Magoo better, but meh, it worked, they made a loooot of cartoons about him.
Do you remember the first Woody Woodpecker Cartoons That was one mean looking Bird
He did
@@moonymonster he still is funny as a grumpy old man haha poking at fun them
Glad Mr Magoo got a character makeover. Never saw the old cartoons.
This 40s cartoon looks quite different from other 40s cartoons.
Yes. Seems like a late 50s cartoon doesn't it ? According to Wikipedia, definitely 1949.
Never knew it went back this far and this the year of my birth…..Looking mighty strange looking….
that bear huge was funny as hell
Nobody voiced Magoo like Jim Backus!!!
"You can have your banjo. AND IF YOU PLAY ONE NOTE I'LL BLAST YOU!!!!"
Then why even give it back to him?
HorrorLover98 he was fixin’ to kill somebody
Yes funny 🤓
and why did he say BBBBLAAAST YOUUU like that 😂
Although it's a UPA, the animation reminds me of early '50s Walter Lantz. Nice to see the 1st cartoon of the old codger.
It does remind me of that as well. Remind me a lot of mid to late 50s cartoons in general. Except not the distinctive mid-century modern background.
This is so good. That laugh!
I like the recruit one best where he confuses an automatic rifle with a walking sticks and shoots holes in the floor for ventilation and wiring.
Magoo with attitude! I love it
I still love mr magoo 🙂
From Bugs Bunny to Mister Magoo (Ray Rayner and His Friends Only)
What great uploads.
Good animation, but a rough beginning for Mr. Magoo.
+macsnafu Hey m8 something is Silly here and that is bear sleeping on a tree on one branch as if in real life that branch wuld shoreliy breake up:)But who am i to judge anithing is posebol in cartoons no?:)
Poor Magoo here is an annoying, domineering character with no backstory and no purpose. He’s not yet the crusty lovable guy of later years.
@@pasquale5074 Right. The Magoo we love is the character that interprets the situations so differently from what they really are, and manages to come out unscathed by it all.
@@macsnafu dude done shot his son
I have to say the first Mr Magoo was definitely a grumpy old man. I mean nearsighted grumpy old man that is.😂😂😂
Of course the only things I really notice are technical. Why is it so satisfying to see animation that works around a big piece of plaid (at the beginning)? I watch the nephew and notice he's not precisely rotoscoped but still has a lot of live-action reference, unlike Mr. Magoo and the bear which are free-hand and stylized. The snow is wonderful to watch. I know Disney got similar effects in Lady and the Tramp by painting cornflakes white, shooting them against a black backdrop, and then overlaying that footage with the rest of the film. Couple of continuity errors - Mr. Magoo's footprints disappear after he walks up the hill, and when Mr. Magoo goes back to the spot where Waldo fell, the piece of cliff that fell off is back.
I thought that piece was going to fall off again.
Junglebook was another great one I reckon that they must have showed after the new gen tape film editing.
They did not have to go that hard on the nephew's live action reference.. but man am I glad they did.
Columbia only agreed to release the short due to the bear. Though Magoo not the bear stole the picture.
Source?
Columbia didn't want them to do a human character that it til they realized how successful Magoo was. As for source, I might had heard someone who was did the history of UPA said something like that or I read it online After all prior to this short for Columbia they did two Fox and Crow shorts. Which UPA didn't want to do. But agreed in order to get the distribution deal with them.
The first banjo player is George Formby
That bear is smarter than the average bear
Man 😂😂😂😂😂 that was a masterpiece ❤. Where was this before Where's the full series
is the Bear in this cartoon where the creators got their idea for Banjo & Kazooie? lol.
For the people that I know in my life: Patrice Rushen aka Breyana's imaginary aunt-Quincy Magoo aka Waldo's uncle & Breyana Smith-Waldo Magoo aka Quincy's nephew.
The original Mr. Magoo was such an old misery guts.
Like Bugs Bunny and many others, he went through quite a change as years went by.
This is very charming for a first ever Mr. Magoo cartoon.🪕😆🐻
Nice!
DVD we'll keep these Classics around for centuries compare the Celluloid film. all they needs is a storage place 👧👩
That was funny, especially the rug scene. Kudo's to '49
From Mister Magoo to Gerald McBoing-Boing (Totally Tooned In Only)
I think Im crying, its that good
I loved this and still do 😍 show it to the kids I have to cut in the barbershop so they sit still ✌️👍
Right at the beginning you'll see "Magoo" put on a pair of glasses. Gotta make you wonder.....is this a real Magoo cartoon or a parody? Sure sounds like Jim Backus.
William Sugarman It's real. In fact it's the first one
@@Staszu13 This is pre-Gillian Island's Jim Backus
6:11 He's not wearing pants!
As seen on Nickelodeon's "Weinerville" and "Cartoon Kablooey". Cartoon Kablooey aired 1960's cartoons from Paramount Pictures (Modern Madcaps, Noveltoons, Merry Makers, GoGo Toons, and Fractured Fables) and late 1940's-1950's cartoons from UPA, and others.
wait a minute...how would hot water save someone from dying?
It's a cartoon, not a science lesson
Wondering the same thing.
2:34, ‘“get yourself a new coat! Your disgraceful son, id like you to be neat boy, har har har, by George ahaha!” lol
Angry Kids 1948-1959 intro OST
And I always thought that Miss Jean (PBS) had the original Hodgepodge Lodge! Note that Rudy Larriva was included (pre-Road Runner 1964-1966 cartoons)!
They don't make em like this anymore
He was more like Jim Backus in those days, in looks and actions. Or as Backus played him.
Mr. Magoo would be considered legally blind.
He is not going to be around any pelican pedestrian crossings any longer so I suppose it doesn't matter much to him.
Esta caricatura lo dio mega
Best one off them all
Seems like a pretty intense reaction.
Mr Magoo was a real old crank in his early days. Jesus saves
Yeah
The end of ragtime bear is hilarious 7:04😂😂😂😂
I remember a different Magoo!
If it's Jim Bacus it's a young Jim Bacus. His voice was lower in the later cartoons. Wonder who the banjo player(s) is/are? Sounds like Pete Seeger's playing the five string part, but who knows?
I am 99.9% positive that no1 is ,...........
GEORGE FORMBY
Comedy gold when I'm cleaning windows probably not promoted in the US.

What have I done? What shall I do?
As Seen on Teletoon 9 Hosted by Dean Richards
UPA FIRST CREATED THE CHOWDER STYLE!!!!!
I see Magoo did go through a change. This isn't Jim Backus is it?
Jeff Sessions is that you?
UPA cartoon classic,
Hey, I was wondering, if someone find any Mr. Magoo shorts from Cartoon Kablooey on Nickelodeon in the mid 1990's? I would like to see them one day.
Cartoon Kablooey aired 1960's cartoons from Paramount Pictures (Modern Madcaps).
Muy buenas caricatura ☣️⚰️🏹📪🔦🥇
That is sad Mr. MAGOO can't c without glasses and with glass he reminds me of scrooge😂
Looks like Chuck Jones animation
This obviously isn't the beloved Jim Backus. Who does Mr. Magoo's voice in this one?
It's Jim!
It is Jim Backus, the laugh gives him away
2:41
This must be one of the first ones.
It says in the title. It's the first one. Released in 1949.
Yeah
Better diligence of magoo
Magog. Red to smoke a joint
You're sure this is a 1949 cartoon. ? Looks more modern. More like late 50's or very early 60's.. But I'm no expert or authority on this stuff.
No its 1949. This is actually one of the early examples of Modernism that was used in the 50's. Columbia needed a new animation unit and UPA was the one for them.
Definitely 1949. Beautifully done by hand.
This is UPA, they made that style used so much back then, inspired by an old Russian from the 30s
Copywrite MCMXLIX, which is 1949....
Carl Lelandt post wwii is when they really began experimenting with the mid-century style in animation and other things
3:31 uh,, RIP Quincy Magoo???
why did he just- flatten when he hit the floor lmao
As Seen on Totally Tooned In
Mr. Magoo - Ragtime Bear 1949 First Magoo Cartoon 19.2.23 1215pm of course, no one is allowed to enjoy mr magoo... cos it causes ructions somewhere. dunno where.

Joe Biden, the cartoon series.
I Call Bullshit ! This was not the first Mr. Magoo!!!!
0:01
No one saw the Trump reference to this on the Daily Show comments today that I could find here. This version is right on the mark for you know who.
Cabbage, RAbbiT, Babbitt, Babbage
I want a sawed off shotgun like that?
No glasses 🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓🤓
A very unlikable version of Magoo
Colour tv was in like the 70s... this video says 1949, I call bs
Movie theatres played a cartoon prior to the feature back then.
Did Waldo just DIE?
That man fell down there 3 times... hell no lol
The only cartoon characters that die are in the Simpsons.
no, 1958
HAHAHAHAHAHA
