Quiet Muffin
This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

. . . probably will find themselves deeply disappointed in this Sylvester and Tweety cartoon, A STREET CAT NAMED SYLVESTER. With its titular allusion to Bottle Cap Confederate Tennessee Williams' best known play, Rump Nation (those Red States which were formerly known as the Confederacy, and recently defected to Red Commie KGB Chief Vlad "The Mad Russian" Putin in a desperate attempt to get their relevancy back) will view STREET CAT eagerly, breathlessly awaiting at least a cameo from Blanche (who depended WAY too much upon the kindness of strangers), or a bellow of "SYL-VAH!!" from Stanley. No such luck here for the Rebel Class. Warner Bros. uses STREET CAT to inform this Basket of Deplorables lurking in (The Then) Far Future that they can elect as many Repug Pedophiliacs as they'd like to the U.S. Senate, but America's Granny will give them a taste of their own bitter medicine in the end. As Tweety warns them with STREET CATS' final line, those backing Roy "The Banging Judge" Moore will be in "quite a predicament" once the active ingredients in their lethal injections kick in.

Tweety, apparently homeless in this one, takes refuge from a winter storm inside Granny's house. Unfortunately for him, Sylvester also lives there and wastes no time nabbing the bird and trying to hide him so Granny doesn't see. Enjoyable short directed by Friz Freleng. Tweety is as cute and fun as ever. Not everybody cares for him but I find him adorable. Sylvester's very funny in this one, especially when he's torturing poor injured Hector the bulldog so Granny will focus on nursing him instead of paying attention to what Sylvester is doing with Tweety. Great voice work from Bea Benaderet and the incomparable Mel Blanc. Lively music from Carl Stalling. The animation is lovely with well-drawn characters and backgrounds. Rich Technicolor is always a plus. A solid Sylvester & Tweety cartoon. Not their best but fun.

It's Tweety, Sylvester, and Hector up to their tricks again. This time, Tweety comes to Granny's house for shelter during a blizzard, and naturally Sylvester gives chase. Hector is bed-ridden due to a previous injury from chasing Sylvester, but he plots revenge, and is happy to protect Tweety.A particularly funny scene in "A Street Cat Named Sylvester" is the knitting scene. I figured out what was going to happen in the refrigerator scene ahead of time, but it was still funny to watch it happen. It's not the best cartoon, but still really funny. Tweety might get called the bird who came in from the cold.In conclusion, take your medicine!

Unable to fly south for the winter with those tiny widdle wings of his, a homeless and nearly frozen Tweety is seeking shelter and by pure coincidence Sylvester the Suckatasher opens up. Lucky for Tweet, good 'ole Granny comes into frame (accopanied by Mozart's minuet) and takes the little bird in. Hector the bulldog is also there, confined to bed by a broken leg from a previous cartoon. Sly Sylvester had been enjoying taking advantage of this, but finds his attention drawn to that scrawny yellow bird with the enormous cranium. Of course pussy did not realize birdie has some handy sticks of dynamite up his minuscule yellow sleeve for just such occasions.Not wanting to be out done, Hector joins in the fight from his bedridden position, shooting plungers from a bow. He soon teams up with Tweety, who is actually only a slightly different shade of yellow than the dog. This becomes a bit distracting when the two of them are sharing the frame. Bussy Sylvester gets into a billy club bashing contest with Hector, as well as a knitting competition with Granny. Tweety once again proves to have the most evil thoughts (he obviously has the largest brain of the three), replacing the medicine with even fouler stuff. Let's hope all of them get what they deserve in the end.7 out of 10
