1943: Coming Snafu
Private Snafu: June, 1943 Chuck Jones
From 1943 to 1945 Warner's produced 26 "Private Snafu" cartoons. They were used as part of the Army-Navy Screen Magazine, a film series shown at military bases around the world. Each cartoon is approximately four and a half minutes long and in black-and-white. The cartoons utilized all of Warner's cartoon directors and voice artists and Carl Staling's music.
Private Snafu is the worst soldier in the army, the one who does everything wrong, even with the help of his magical friend Technical Fairy First Class. The films illustrate in a humorous way what not to do to stay alive in the Armed Forces. Many of the films were written by Theodore Geisel (Dr. Suess), and Phil Eastman.
Although the Pentagon had to approve the storyboards, Chuck Jones recalls that he and the other directors were given a great deal of latitude in the way they handled the material and were allowed to add comic business. As the Snafu series were intended for an audience of GI's, the gags included lots of cheesecake shots, sexual innuendo, bare posteriors and a occasional "damn or hell."
Warner Bros. started doing the Private Snafu series first, then Snafu was spread out to other studios. After the war the the various studios destroyed thousands of feet of animation, leaving only a few Private Snafu's to remain in circulation.
This first movie is just an introduction of Snafu and his "vicious" attitudes toward military life!
Le avventure di Private Snafu erano dei cartoni animati destinati ad essere proiettati per i militari USA. Venivano distribuiti nei cinema interni alle caserme e alle basi militari. I migliori disegnatori di Hollywood hanno contribuito a questa serie di cartoons.
Questo film, il primo della serie , è una presentazione del personaggio Snafu e delle sue pessime attitudini militari.

Private Snafu: August, 1943 Chuck Jones
Though boasting about being able to keep military secrets, Snafu slowly blurts out information within earshot of enemy agents (including a lady spy with a radio transmitter in her brassiere). Adolf torpedoes Snafu's ship, sending the soldiers to Hades.
Pur vantandosi di saper mantenere... il "segreto militare", Snafu si ubriaca e spiffera tutto alle procaci e biondissime spie nazi. Risultato: al termine della licenza la nave di Snafu viene silurata dagli u-boot e il nostro eroe si trova precipitato negli inferi dove trova ad attenderlo un diavolo poco rassicurante, naturalmente con le sembianze di Hitler!

Pvt Snafu: Oh, I'll be the war's greatest hero / With these guns I have nothing to fear-o / My guns are the best / They can pass any test / Oh, I'll be the war's greatest hero.
Oh, I'm the world's best fighting machine-o / The Nazis will learn what I mean-o / My wonderful guns / Will murder the bums / And I'll bury them in the latrine-o.
[Pvt. Snafu rams his gun muzzle into the Nazi soldier's rear end]
Pvt Snafu: Stick 'em up, or I'll blow your brains out!
Nazi soldier: That rifle looks a bit gooey / If you think I am scared you are screwy / Go on, fire away, buck / You're guns full of muck / And nothing comes out but just hooey.

[Snafu is a prisoner-of-war]

Private Snafu, Technical Fairy First Class: November, 1943 Frank Tashlin
Private Snafu, stationed in the Artic, imagines the good times his family is having back home. Technical Fairy First Class shows him his dad building tanks, his mom planting a Victory Garden, Grandpa riveting battleships, and his girl joining the WAC's.
Confinato in una base artica, Snafu immagina quanto invece si stiano divertendo i suoi cari rimasti in America. Il fedele folletto "Technical Fairy First Class" gli mostra, tramite un futuristico televisore, che, al contrario di ciò che pensa, suo padre stà costruendo carri armati, la mamma semina il suo Victory Garden (orto di guerra), il nonno stringe i bulloni delle navi militari in attesa del varo e la sua ragazza si è appena arruolata nel Women's Army Corp.

Private Snafu comes home and tells Army secrets to everyone in town. Because of his loose lips, his troop is ambushed.
Though completed, the cartoon was never released because of worries that it would reveal that the U.S. was developing a "super bomb". The cartoon showed plans that this was going to happen.
Come sempre Snafu non riesce a tenere la bocca chiusa! Rivela segreti militari a tutti e, come risultato, i soldati della sua compagnia cadono in un imboscata. Questo Cartoon non venne mai distribuito perchè mostrava una scena in cui in un cinegiornale veniva detto che l'America stava progettando una segretissima superbomba...

But if we try to analyze the content a little closer, I would claim that the racism not exactly is hateful! I like to think the way of portraying black people in this short is based on general ignorance more than real issues. And their is some kind of charm in this technical superior animation. The characters is mostly lazy "coons" who pick one cotton piece and the time, eat water melons, fight in slow motion and sleep with flies buzzing around their heads. Only to be interrupted by a Ethel Waters caricature who get's everyone going in a long dominating musical number. It is pretty offensive for out days standards. But it can be discussed if that really was the intention. After all it was widely accepted as a whole in the 40's. We must not forget that. I don't think cartoons like this should be banned, the world doesn't become a better place of that reason. They could serve as a great reminder about yesterday.
Il brano non è male... ma la il razzismo affiora qua e la durante il film. Comunque, questo è una dei primi "video" musicali animati degi anni 40 del '900 e riesce ancora ad essere piacevole da guardare oggi!.
Popeye!
(Let's have a look at the anatomy of your average Japanese according to cartoonists of these movies.
Your average Japanman is an extremely polite little fellow with very recognizable characteristics. He is about four feet tall and wears round glasses and a kimono and has buckteeth bigger than his slanted little eyeballs.
His politeness is however only skin deep. If you turn your back to him for even one second, he will show his true form:
Ready to attack from behind, Japanese people will grow fangs and attack with whatever weapon available. They will often attack a single opponent as a group...)

1943: A Jolly Good Furlough
Producer: Max and David Fleischer - Famous Studios Productions
Popeye is doing a great job of sinking Japanese ships (complete with toilet-flush sound effect). A carrier pigeon brings him notice that he's been granted a month furlough, which he plans to spend with Olive and his nephews. But on arrival, he's run over by Olive, who immediately leaves him alone with his nephews, who are practicing home defense. Popeye falls for their booby-trapped hammock, and also barely survives the demonstrations of their other skills, notably camouflage. He ends up in a beehive; the displaced bees take up residence in a gas mask, which a nephew slaps on Popeye; the bees then manage to fly Popeye all through the house, then drop him on the ground, where his nephews bandage him all too thoroughly. That's enough for Popeye, who heads back to the front; the pigeon tries to deliver notice of an extra two weeks, but Popeye will have none of it.
Braccio di Ferro si impegna moltissimo ad affondare navi giapponesi... poi va a trovare Olivia e i suoi nipotini!

Producer: Max and David Fleischer - Famous Studios Productions /Paramount Pictures
Popeye's nephews happen by just as the glue factory is rejecting a sorry looking horse and decide to take it home. They want to treat it as a house pet, despite the obvious problems; Popeye says no. They try to hide it, including painting a Hitler face on its rear and calling it a painter, but keep making mistakes like feeding it horseradish (great reaction shots). Finally, they hide the horse in the closet; Popeye comes out and says that they'll have to keep it now. We see why when she's sitting at the table with her four new foals. The only Popeye color cartoon of WW2.
I nipoti di Braccio di Ferro portano un vecchio cavallo alla fabbrica della colla.... Questo è l'unico Cartoon di Braccio di Ferro a colori prodotto durante la Seconda Guerra Mondiale.

1945: Mr. Hook - Tokio Woes
About as offensive as a cartoon can be, "Tokyo Woes" starts off with a radio broadcast from Japan's capital. Naturally, the characters have giant teeth and slits for eyes (one even has the same voice as Porky Pig). But over in the United States, Seaman Hook is listening to the broadcast and decides to take charge: he launches a bomb at them.
Obviously, it's a little hard to laugh at this cartoon in the 21st century, especially after Hiroshima and Nagasaki... but as long as we understand what it portrays, we can still watch it. In fact, I recommend this cartoon just to show the WWII-era zeitgeist. The end was the seminal prediction of optimism; it has applied off and on since the war ended.
"Tokio Woes" è un'altro dei più offensivi cartoons sui giapponesi di tutta la Seconda Guerra Mondiale! Naturalmente, ad oltre sessant'anni di distanza e dopo Hiroshima e Nagasaki è un pò difficile ridere con questo cartoon, che comunque resta uno dei "classici" più noti dell'epoca.

1944: Nimbus Libèrè
1944, France is been occupied by the Nazis for almost 4 years so far. Just a few months before the D-day and the invasion of Normandy Goebbels' propaganda created this cartoon starring "duplicates" of the animated "Hollywood stars" (Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Popeye and others). This forgotten movie was aimed to discourage French people to listen to the BBC radio transmissions announcing the imminent invasion.
English subtitles.
Cartone animato nazista di propaganda del 1944 destinato alla Francia occupata.
