Laikals The greatest movie ever made..!

Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . would-be Austrian World-Destroyer Adolph Hitler's birth certificate (just as "Marion Mitchell Morrison" was the actual, once-revised baby name for the actor Latterly known as John "Il Duce" Wayne) during this Looney Tune, SCRAP HAPPY DAFFY. Some film historians see SCRAP as a spoof of the documentary made by Hitler's personal Videographer, Leni Riefenstahl, titled in English as TRIUMPH OF THE WILL. However, most Warnologists (those who specialize in showing how the Looney Tunes beat BOTH Nostradamus and Astrology when it comes to predicting the Future for 21st Century America) zoom in on the fact that between 2:04 and 2:05 of this animated short, a close-up of a horse's behind (obviously meant to foretell Putin's Puppet, Rump) transforms into Hitler's head! Earlier, Daffy's mirror image marching in his "Salvage Warden" outfit transforms into three visuals--Mussolini Daffy, Hitler Daffy, and Hirohito Daffy (representing the leaders of the three "Axis Powers" out to annihilate the U.S. during World War Two) as the song lyrics mention "Freedom's Foes." This is Warner's way of warning We of the 21st Century that just because someone's on the U.S. Presidential Ballot does NOT preclude the likelihood that he's a Russian KGB operative subject to Blackmail due to $100 million plus paid to him by Russian Mafia Go-Betweens for "Naming Rights," as documented by Disney's Nightline Program drilling down into the Real Life Manchurian Candidate Nov. 10, 2016.

slymusic "Scrap Happy Daffy" is a fine Daffy Duck cartoon that was meant to build confidence and bolster the spirit of winning the fight for all American servicemen during World War II. Directed by Frank Tashlin, this cartoon is full of interesting camera angles and attention to detail on facial close-ups (foreshadowing Tashlin's work on live-action feature films). In this film, Daffy operates a scrap heap yard, and he shall stop at nothing in order to protect it.My favorite scenes from "Scrap Happy Daffy": Daffy opens the short with a well-sung patriotic tune, then he engages in a rapid Gilbert & Sullivan-type recitation of all the things you could contribute to his scrap pile. I also love how Daffy's eyes address the camera as he fixes an Alka-Seltzer for the billy goat ("Listen to it fizz"), as well as Daffy's eyebrow waggle after he says "I'm an American..........duck." The Hitler caricature is funny, too; voiced by Mel Blanc, he shouts mock German as he reads a newspaper headline about Daffy's scrap pile and then wildly stomps on the newspaper.If you're familiar with the screen character of Daffy Duck, you might find it difficult to envision him at the end of this cartoon as Superman, defending our country from the Axis. But I'll bet that this was exactly what our troops needed to see for their confidence to grow! Bravo to the entire Warner Bros. cartoon family for cranking out numerous funny films for all American servicemen & civilians to enjoy during the War.

ccthemovieman-1 As others have explained here, this cartoon was made as part of the film industry's bid to help the U.S. and Allies with the World War II effort. The message in this one, with Daffy Duck providing the message with laughs, was to encourage people to save scrap so that it could be converted to weapons and ammo.Signs like "Get that lead out! (along with iron, brass, tin, etc.) are at Daffy's Scrap Heap, where he does his bit to help win the war. Any question that this cartoon is anything but that is erased in his first scene when we see him with an air-raid helmet on and he's singing, "We're in to win, turn in your tin......To our nation's call every rubber ball, Goes to conquer freedom's foe." You get the idea: this is more of a patriotic message instead of the normal wacky Looney Tunes effort. However, that's not to say you won't laugh with Daffy in here, or enjoy the inventive artwork and direction by Frank Tashin.Much of the story tells of Hitler hearing about Daffy's scrap pile and he sends a billy goat (don't ask) to destroy it. The German leader is shown, it's safe to say, in a very unflattering light! No objections there, from anyone I've hear, and none from me. It's ironic that our foes in WWII were depicted so negatively but Hollywood doesn't say one word today about the Islamic terrorists trying to destroy the U.S. Today, as I write this, there are several anti- American military films that are being shown and nothing which makes the enemies look bad. Over 3,000 citizens are murdered in the World Trade Center buildings and today's Hollywood only makes films mocking our soldiers? Unbelievable! Think about it. Watching this cartoon really makes the contrast really stand out, especially at the end when Daffy Duck is transformed into "SuperAmerican." .

haildevilman Another propaganda gem! This is dated beyond belief, which makes it easier to watch.This harped on recycling before it became the norm. Speaking of which, I think it was "Norm" McCabe (rimshot) behind this one too. Tashlin gets deserved credit too.The Nazi stereotypes gave a laugh to everyone who saw this at my place that night. I have a DVD chock full of animation like this.Just remember that this is a propaganda cartoon from a long time ago. There's no need to get uptight about it anymore.That said, the animation itself is limited. But it's still worth a look or three.
