The Animation Quiz
Image # 1 ( left ) & # 2 ( right ). Name the main film characters which are the boy ( #1 ) and the frog ( # 2 ). The first entries in a new quiz. Seeing animation is so popular I thought why not an animation quiz ? They will get easier but I thought the debut images should be challenging. Partial nudity in a pre code cartoon for those who haven't noticed in image # one. Both the lead characters had a series of cartoon shorts of their own.

Flip the Frog and that is NOT Mickey Mouse but it was drawn by the same guy who drew the original Mortimer which went on to morph into Mickey
Correct. Ubbe Eert ''ub'' Iwerks known as UB Iwerks had worked for Walt Disney and they had created together among others Mickey Mouse. Iwerks had a falling out with Walt Disney and he went his separate way and the Iwerks studio was opened in 1930 and MGM was on board to distribute their product.
Fiddlesticks ( 1930 ) was the first cartoon and the first Flip The Frog entry Iwerks produced on his own. Flip The Frog was filmed in two-strip technicolor.
Top image is of UB Iwerks working for Walt Disney in the late 1920's.
Correct David. # 3 is Animal Farm which was released in 1954. The Halas and Bachelor adaptation of George Orwell's classic novel was Britain's second animated feature.
Note the "' You'll Have The Laughs Of Your Life!'' tagline on the bottom of the U.S. poster. I must have viewed a different copy of this film, as hilarious it wasn't. Interestingly when the film was first released a lot of parents who took their small children along to see this film, thinking it would be a Walt Disney type film, complained about the contents after viewing the film. Does this poster indicate funny to you ?
Sorry. but no. A giant clue was given.
Correct of course. The Old Mill was originally released in 1937. Beautiful animation. I loved it when I screened it at a Film Society many years ago and just viewing David's posted film it still remains magnificent.
So sorry to tell you it isn't Red Hot riding Hood but so incredibly close and I fully understand why you answered this way. So close but no prize. I am sure you will come up with the answer though.
Little Rural Riding Hood?
