tom and jerry mash-up is an 8 minute disaster written by morrison on 05/30/07
i’m the only guy i know who still laughs at tom and jerry cartoons. i don’t know… chuck jones has a way with me. i like the way mouths look in his cartoons. there’s just something inticing about it. like maybe i could make out with a cat mouth if it looked like that.
i hunted on youtube earlier today for a fucking hilarious t&j short, but found something simultaneously better and more debilitating. there are no original ideas. someone has synced “in the court of the crimson king” by prog rock outfit king crimson to the tom and jerry short “switchin’ kitten.”
so what the hell am i supposed to do with all these foghorn leghorn cartoons that i dumped into imovie?
what the hell am i supposed to do with all these choice cuts of gentle giant, caravan, and yes tracks that i’d been sifting through so punctiliously? nothing. weep, maybe. because someone beat me to it. musta been a pretty smart guy…i mean, prog rock and 60s cartoons? there’s never been a more scathing social commentary, and i could’ve been at the fucking vanguard of a revolution. now i’ll just be like doug funnie in that episode where everybody starts wearing what he wears and nobody believes that he did it first.
that being said, there’s a really sweet part about 6 minutes or so in when tom eyes an axe blade. other than that, nothing syncs up. and who cares, this is one of those weird expressionistic deitch-directed t&j cartoons that simpsons made fun of with “worker and parasite.” don’t say i never taught you nuthin’.
