Marry-Go-Round Close | Popeye the Sailor | Warner Archive

Description :

Lost at sea for decades, this set collects the first two Technicolor® seasons of Popeye's animated theatrical shorts (1943‑44 and 1944‑45), making them available for the first time ever on home video: complete, intact and outrageously funny. The 1940s brought new sights and sounds to America’s favorite cartoon star. Regulars Olive Oyl and Bluto return, while Popeye resumes his riotous relationship with his shipmate Shorty and his naughty nephews Pipeye, Poopeye, Peepeye and Pupeye. With the addition of full color, cartoonists were free to let loose with journeys to exotic lands and give Popeye a fresh stock of new friends and foes. But it’s the eternal love triangle—Popeye and Bluto competing for the attention of Olive—that drives the majority of these zany situations, as well as the hilarious action‑packed gags. Whether our heroes pose as circus acrobats, puppeteers, or even take turns as Superman, these gems from the Golden Age of Hollywood will blow you down with laughter.
