It's bizarre... like someone animated this cartoon in their sleep...

The past, like the universe, is not only stranger than we imagine...it is stranger than we CAN imagine.

What a weird cartoon! It's also from the same distributor that distributed the later Felix cartoons from 1927-1931 those were pretty weird as well by the way.

This Video is from the Thunderbean DVD "Cultoons, Volume 1". We did the restoration fo this film, restoring sequences that never appeared in the theatrical version (that's why they're silent). Collin Kellogg, Mark Kauler and Chris Buchman were kind enough to lend Thunderbean their material... Steve Stanchfield

After watching these, I don't know whether to say it was brilliant or excellent! It's just totally beyond my comprehension! I only wish we had those parts of the soundtrack that are no longer there in the restored scenes, kinda made me wonder what type of lines could've been said in those scenes.

I'd love to know more about this incredibly weird cartoon. When was it released? Though some of the animation is weak, some of the drawing (especially the tiger) is quite good. Are those supposed to be bare-breasted "native" babes, or are they wearing iron bras with built-in nipples? Totally bizarre...

Well the carton would make sense if the damn sound didn't keep disappearing for all the dialogue sequences. It looks like it was deliberate. It may have been muted for some post 1934 release as it seems like some Pre-Code sort of humor is going on.

It's not exactly deliberate. Those sequences were obviously taken from silent home movie prints. In other words, yes, those portions were cut from later sound prints.

i guess i have watched to many old merry melodies and loony tunes to find this bizarre/weird! The cartoon back then were for adults and usually had a political/moral statement...

You're right! Including this intro to a cartoon, it will give you nightmares even more. Simon the Monk's face will open his mouth into the screen and freak you out! This intro will give kids nightmares.
