comment |
Possibly the peak of Popeye the Sailor's cartoon career during The Golden Age of Animation, this lavishly animated, full-color, two-reeler 16-minute theatrical cartoon from 1936 brings together a crisply paced plot with impressive action scenes and comedy. Oh, and awesome 3-D backgrounds too (courtesy of Fleischer Studios' trademark "tabletop" technique).The short starts off with a close-up on the isle of Sindbad the Sailor, and not long after we see the man himself, he begins his epic villain boast song, complete with amazing live-action model set and animation blending, ending with the introduction of Popeye himself, singing his theme song.Sindbad promptly sends his giant roc to "Wreck that ship!" and kidnap Olive Oyl ("But bring me the woman.") and naturally, Popeye has to travel to Sindbad's Island (along with Wimpy) to save Olive Oyl.The short was a smash hit when it was released, resulting in two follow-ups being done within the next few years. It was nominated for an Academy Award in 1936, but lost to the now obscure Silly Symphonies short The Country Cousin. Fortunately, this cartoon got a better reward later on — it got selected for preservation in the National Film Registry.This cartoon is in the Public Domain and can be viewed online on YouTube or The Other Wiki's article on the cartoon.This short was popular enough to receive a follow-up in 1937, Popeye the Sailor Meets Ali Baba's Forty Thieves. |

The Beast Master: Sindbad has a myriad of fantastic creatures on his island that both respect and fear him, among them: Lions, Leopards, Tigers, Vultures, Snakes, Serpents, Dragons, Ape Men, and even a Roc and a two-headed Giant! |

comment |
Visual Pun: Sindbad squeezes Popeye so hard his face becomes "beet red" (cue Popeye's head turning into a beet). The "Big Bad Sinbad" remake furthers this joke by having Popeye mutter "Nobody can beet (beat) me!" before headbutting Sindbad. Popeye's balloon biceps show an electrical power generator during his Spinach-induced power-up. |

Whole Episode Flashback: This short was later remade by Famous Studios in 1952 as "Big Bad Sindbad", which is essentially the same cartoon, only with a Framing Device where Popeye and his nephews go to a museum and encounter a giant statue of Sindbad, prompting Popeye to recount his fateful encounter with the sailor, with the dialogue re-recorded. Once Popeye was done with the story, the nephews chiseled the statue into that of Popeye in his honor. Understandably, a lot of footage from the original cartoon had to be cut to fit in a 9-minute cartoon short. |

comment |
Digital Destruction: The print included on the official Popeye DVD is a very good restoration — save for some truly bizarre color alterations, which pumped up the pink, purple and turquoise on the print. On that note, Sindbad's outfit was originally purple, but is now bright blue in this print. Not to mention, DVNR problems tend to pop up at times — especially when Olive Oyl cheers on Popeye when he's beating up Sindbad.note This only happened on HBO Max, the DVD print doesn't have this happen to it. Averted for Thunderbean's restoration of the short on their Popeye Blu-Ray which uses the print from the National Film Registry with far more accurate colors. |

comment |
Let's You and Him Fight: Boola's two heads get into an argument as to what to do with Popeye when they're beating him down. They briefly start thrashing one another, tossing Popeye aside to do so. Popeye then chooses to break it up. |

Universal-Adaptor Cast: One of the earliest examples of this in a Popeye cartoon. While Popeye, Olive Oyl and Wimpy are themselves, the cartoon is taking place during the days of Sindbad, with Bluto playing the role (as a villain). |

Bad People Abuse Animals: To make it clear that you’re not supposed to side with Sindbad, he makes his entrance slapping the two lions guarding the entrance to his castle. In addition, he kicks one of his snakes in the face during his Villain Song. |

Shake Someone, Objects Fall: When Sindbad uses Popeye as a human punching bag, a number of nautical items get shaken loose, such as a lantern, a ship's wheel, and a life preserver. |

The Load: Wimpy just tags along with Popeye and gets distracted by a local duck that he wants to eat, and then sits on the sidelines and does nothing more after he fails to catch it. He contributes absolutely nothing to helping Popeye rescue Olive. |

There Can Be Only One: The story is set off by Sindbad overhearing Popeye singing his theme song, taking it as a challenge to his title as the greatest sailor in the world. Interestingly enough, Popeye wasn't interested in challenging anyone, he was just passing by. He only wants to save Olive. |

The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: Noticeably averted for one of the few times in the whole franchise. Popeye actually is at sea in this cartoon, manning a ship, and it's central to the plot. |

Fast Tunnelling: After one of Sinbad's punches knocks him inside a tree, Popeye somehow moves down from this tree and into the ground, rapidly moves underground while visible from the surface as a moving bump, and comes back up through another tree. |

Evil Is Petty: The reason Sindbad sicced his giant bird on Popeye and his friends, sank their ship and kidnapped Olive Oyl? He got offended because Popeye interrupted his boastful song with a musical number of his own, implying that there may be a sailor in the world who is more badass than him! |

comment |
Shown Their Work: The Fleischer brothers and their studio pulled out all stops for this cartoon, and boy howdy, does it show, resulting in much Scenery Porn and all-around Eye Candy in general. The storytelling and pacing also received much attention to detail. Much of this short uses actual elements from the actual voyages of Sinbad going beyond commoner knowledge like the Roc. In Sindbad's Villain Song alone he brings up the Turtle Island whale (which is said to be his island home here) from the first voyage, with the valley of serpents from his second voyage (the roc also being from the second and fifth voyage). Boola is possibly in reference to the giant from the third voyage. The ape men we periodically see during his Villain Song may be in reference to the City of Apes from the fifth voyage. |
