I like rapper Soulja Boy, I like Disney, I like big butts, I can not lie. I LOVE this Soulja Boy Disney big butts video!

Far out, man! This is an early 70s Peter Max or Yellow Sub inspired commercial that I dug then and dig now!

Did you know that at Yoe! Studio we did a couple of years worth of Bazooka Joe comics (and fortunes!)? Well, we did. I love dem Bazooka Joe comics! And Kirk is right, I have a section on the brilliant Wesley Morse, Joe’s original artist, in my new book Clean Cartoonists’ Dirty Drawings. Morse is one of my fave cartoonists, I also drew a strip that’s a tribute to him and about Tijuana Bibles in the new Hotwire anthology. (See you at the Hotwire signing at Rocketship tonight?) Morse did lots of hard-core Tijuana Bibles, but also did some just nice sexy girlie cartooning and nudes that you’ll see in Clean Cartoonists’ Dirty Drawings. I thought I’d check out to see what You Tube had on Joe and found this nifty commercial. The comics in the background aren’t the ones we did but, I think, they’re by the terrific team that proceeded us of Jay Lynch and Howard Cruse.

I loved D.J. David B’s post on Tuesday with the Violent Femmes version of Eep-Opp-Ork-Ah-Ah, the original being sung by Jet Screamer, Judy Jetson’s fave rock star. I thought as a follow up I’d post the original Jet Screamer song that aired in 1962 for The Friday Flick. BTW, The Jet Screamer spin entry sound effect was regularly used on the Winsome Witch shorts of The Secret Squirrel Show, every time she uses her magic and says “Ippedty, pippedty, POW!” And the sound effect was also used on one of the last Hanna-Barbera logos seen at the end of various HB shows.

Judy, Judy, Judy.Â

No, not THAT Tom and THAT Jerry. I watched plenty of the MGM Tom (cat) and Jerry (mouse) when I was a kid but I now find them EXTREMELY annoying. All that chasing and fighting makes me nervous. But, I love their predecessors in name, the humans Tom and Jerry from the old Van Beuren Studios. Here’s one of Tom and Jer’s best cartoons, Piano Tooners (1932), which includes both some great humor and music. And there’s even a mouse, if that what you really want in a Tom and Jerry cartoon. Lots of meeses, actually, and I love them meeses to pieces. They look like Mickey Mouse without pants! And if nudity gets you excited-and I hope you DO have a pulse-watch for a scene with a lady dressing where you get to see some NAKED BOOBIE. If DJ David B. liked the boobie in the previous post wait till he gets a gander at THIS!

Tomorrow’s my birthday, so for The Flying Flick I thought I’d post this fun Blondie Birthday cover. And, speaking of fun, one of the most jubilant moments in movie making is this incredible dance segment from an old 1930s Blondie movie. Enjoy!

My fave part of the Arf Lover’s blog each week is DJ David B. Spins Comics Tunes. I LOVED the Batman theme song DJDB presented this week. And there was a comment by a “James B.” (any relation to David B.?) that turned us on to a version of the Batman theme by some “pop punk” group called The Jam. If I’m supposed to know The Jam, forgive me, I shamefully know so little about music in general. Anywho, I googled around and found a fun video of The Jam doing the Batman theme. So, to join in the Bat fun, I’m presenting that as this Friday’s THE FLYING FLICK!

What you’ve always-really-wanted to see at Disney World: Pluto terrorizing a small child! Too bad Mom intervenes…

Last Friday on the debut THE FRIDAY FLICK! there was a fun animated bit. This week it’s live action. Well, sorta. The part I really love about this Private Snuffy Smith movie is that the opening that shows drawings of Snuffy, Lowizie and The Sergeant that morph into the live action actors. The drawings ain’t exactly by the great Billy DeBeck who drew the comic adventures of Snuffy Smith and Barney Google for he funnies, but it’s still a good time! Oh, and D.J. David B., there’s a “Time’s A Wastin’ ” and a “Yardbirds” song that’s part of the festivities. After the movies I do have an unpublished drawing by DeBeck of Snuffy and Barney from my collection for your pleasure and a pic of DeBeck.
