Tom and Jerry

Post by Kitty »

This clip of Tom talking makes me laugh every time. His voice is what's funny. I bet they had fun recording the dialogue. Hehe

:lol: I like the zoot suit he’s wearing. That voice is an imitation of some actor’s, I’m sure, but I can’t identify who it is, though it sounds a little familiar—something like Clark Gable.

The first Tom and Jerry, called Puss Gets the Boot (1940) is quality! Actually, this should be called Jasper and Jinx, because those were their original names!
Tom, or should I say 'Jasper' looks weeeird.
What would you do if you had a cat, and you saw him holding all those dishes the way Jasper does at the climax? 😂

It was interesting to see the first one. You're right Jasper/Tom does look odd compared to the more modern incarnation. :D
