Silly Symphonies	comment	Walt Disney's Silly Symphonies were a hugely popular and influential series of Disney short subjects from The Golden Age of Animation, generally themed around music and lushly animated fairy tales. They were a very important part of Disney's history, pioneering many of their animation techniques, as well as giving animators preparation for work in the feature-length animated films that the studio would later become famous for. The series would have a massive impact on the animation industry, inspiring many imitators, some of which would later evolve into future competitors for Disney, such as the Looney Tunes franchise. It also won seven Oscars, a record matched only by Tom and Jerry.In some ways, Fantasia and its sequel Fantasia 2000 could be seen as the successors of these cartoons.Silly Symphonies brought along many imitators, including the Warner Bros. cartoon series Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies, Max Fleischer's Color Classics, Ub Iwerks's Comi Color Cartoons, Columbia's Color Rhapsodies, Van Beuren Studios Rainbow Parade, Walter Lantz's Cartune Classics, and MGM's Happy Harmonies from former Disney employees Harman and Ising. The television series House of Mouse used the Silly Symphonies title for some of its new cartoons, but unlike the original cartoons, these did feature continuing characters. Disney also produced comic strips and comic books with this title.On December 3, 2001, Disney released "Silly Symphonies" as part of its DVD series "Walt Disney Treasures". On December 19, 2006, "More Silly Symphonies" was released, completing the collection and allowing the cartoons to be completely available to the public. They are now available to stream on Disney+.

Silly Symphonies / int_1282bf4f	type	No Celebrities Were Harmed
Silly Symphonies / int_1282bf4f	comment	No Celebrities Were Harmed: Jenny Wren from "Who Killed Cock Robin?" is a shameless caricature of actress Mae West — but was such a successful caricature of her that Mae herself praised it! Cock Robin might be a caricature of the then-popular crooner Bing Crosby. The crow from the short is also a caricature of black actor Stepin Fetchit, and Harpo Marx of the Marx Brothers is caricatured here as a cuckoo bird. "Elmer Elephant" has a throwaway gag with three pelicans doing a Jimmy Durante impression. "Mother Goose Goes Hollywood" is build around caricaturing movie actors as nursery rhyme characters. Katharine Hepburn as Little Bo Peep, Laurel and Hardy as Simple Simon and the pieman, W. C. Fields as Humpty Dumpty, and so on. The King of the Isle of Jazz in "Music Land" is based on bandleader Paul Whiteman, known as the "King of Jazz". "Broken Toys" has caricatures of Zazu Pitts, W.C. Fields and Ned Sparks as discarded toys.

This comic can be found in the book "Mickey and the Gang: Classic Stories in Verse". "Toby Tortoise Returns" has several cameos of characters from the Silly Symphonies series. Some Silly Symphonies characters would also make cameos in the Mickey Mouse short "Mickey's Polo Team".

Silly Symphonies / int_1ccad9a3	comment	Villain Song: "You're Nothin' But a Nothin'" from "The Flying Mouse", where the mean bats mock the titular mouse. This song is very short in the actual cartoon, but it was expanded into a full song and released on record. The full song is overall less malicious than the cartoon version, though. Most of the song is simply retelling the story of the cartoon. Even when it gets to the chorus, where the bat (just one bat in this version) mocks the mouse, he also says that being a bat is "a silly and a dumb thing," implying that even HE doesn't like himself the way he is. "Hi-De-Hades" from "The Goddess of Spring", in which Pluto crowns Persephone "Queen of Hades", and he and his mooks celebrate. In "Lullaby Land", the boogeymen sing a quick song about how they scare children.

The 1939 version takes it even further when the ducklings hatch and the father is hugs and kisses all around, but then the Ugly Duckling hatches and his appearance alone is enough to cause a fiery marital spat between the duck parents.

Also, Max Hare from "The Tortoise and the Hare" could be considered a prototype for the later Merrie Melodies character Bugs Bunny—Tex Avery even admitted that the idea for Bugs came from Max Hare. Note that both Max Hare and the early versions of Bugs Bunny were designed by the same Canadian artist: Charles "Charlie" Thorson (1890-1966). Mammy Two-Shoes of Tom and Jerry also makes her first appearances in the short "Three Orphan Kittens" and its follow up "More Kittens".

Oh, and he doesn't leave out the crippled kid in this version either. In the original story of "The Grasshopper and the Ants" the ants reminded the Grasshopper of his idle ways and left him to starve during the winter. In the Disney cartoon, the worker ants drop everything to care for the Grasshopper, and though the Queen Ant gives the same stern rebuke as in the original, she still offers shelter so long as he'll provide the music.

The flames chase Tillie and the other animals around, but are thwarted when Elmer arrives and shoots the flames with water, although one flame manages to dodge the blasts of water a few times before getting put out. "Flowers and Trees": When the evil tree tries to burn down the forest out of jealousy over the protagonist tree getting the girl, the fire is represented as little impish flames chasing the forest's denizens around and setting things alight. They're put out when a flock of birds starts up a rainstorm, but not before the flames tackle the evil tree, killing him. In "Moth and the Flame", a female moth sees a flame on a candle, which comes to life and tries to grab her. The flame soon sets fire to the costume shop, leading a male moth to try to put out the fire himself, then call in reinforcements when his efforts turn out to be futile.

Silly Symphonies / int_7ea2a915	type	Animation Bump
Silly Symphonies / int_7ea2a915	comment	Animation Bump: Later installments of the series. After all, part of the modus operandi of making the cartoons was to pioneer animation techniques. More specific examples in the shorts are given below: One scene in "Egyptian Melodies" has a background that moves in perspective—think the Dungeons from the first Phantasy Star, but fully animated. This footage was so impressive that Disney would reuse it for the Mickey Mouse cartoon "The Mad Doctor". "Frolicking Fish" is a progressive example—during the making of the cartoon, animator Norm Ferguson accidentally discovered the principle of "Follow Through and Overlapping Action"—prior to this short, the characters started and stopped in a cyclish, machine-like way, but Norm animated it so that when the fish were stopping one action, they were already beginning another action, creating a very smooth, lifelike effect. You can see Norm's work on the trio of fish doing an old vaudeville soft-shoe dance in the short. Walt was so pleased by this that he had his animators study Norm's animation. "Cock O' The Walk" is one of the most impressively-animated shorts in the series, featuring successful re-enactments of Broadway dance routines, tricky drawing angles, and LOTS of crowd scenes. The most notable work is by Bill Tytla, who animated virtually all of the scenes with the rooster and the pullet dancing. "Three Orphan Kittens" has several backgrounds—complete with reflections in the floor tiles—that move in perspective. "The Old Mill" is the first cartoon to used the Multiplane camera for shots that depict depth, and boasts some of the most realistic character designs and effects animation yet devised.

Silly Symphonies / int_a68421bb	type	Animated Adaptation
Silly Symphonies / int_a68421bb	comment	Animated Adaptation: Several shorts are based on pre-existing stories, including: Mother Goose Melodies, Old King Cole and Mother Goose Goes Hollywood features a mashup of the numerous Mother Goose nursery rhymes, such as Humpty Dumpty, Jack and Jill, Little Bo Peep, Little Boy Blue, Little Jack Horner, Mother Goose, Old King Cole, and Simple Simon. Playful Pan is loosely based on the myth of the Greek God Pan. Birds of a Feather is derived from the Mother Goose nursery rhyme of the same name. The China Plate is an animated retelling of the Willow Pattern Legend. The Spider And The Fly: The title is based on John Heywood's poem "The Spider and the Fly" (1556), but the story is derived from the opening line of Mary Howitt's poem in ''Sketches of Natural History" (1834). The Ugly Duckling: Notably adapted twice, first in 1931 and again in 1939 (although the latter is much more faithful to the original Hans Christian Andersen story). Babes in the Woods: The title taken from the traditional English tale Babes in the Wood (or "The Children in the Wood", 1595), though the actual story of the cartoon is inspired by the Brothers Grimm's Hansel and Gretel. King Neptune is loosely based on the myth of Neptune, the Roman God of the Sea. Lullaby Land is based on several elements from the book "Love Songs of Childhood" (1894), later compiled into the omnibus "Lullaby Land Songs of Childhood" (1897). The Night Before Christmas is based on the 1823 poem 'Twas the Night Before Christmas (AKA A Visit from St. Nicholas) by Clement Clarke Moore. Obviously, it and Santa's Workshop are based on the classic stories of Santa Claus. Father Noah's Ark is based on the biblical flood in the Book of Genesis from The Bible (specifically, Genesis 6:13-8:14). Three Little Pigs is based on the fable and fairy tale The Three Little Pigs (more specifically, Andrew Lang's take on the story for the "Green Fairy Book" (1892). The Big Bad Wolf is both a sequel to the previous short and an adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood by Charles Perrault/Brothers Grimm. Three Little Wolves is partially inspired by Aesop's The Boy Who Cried Wolf. Water Babies is an adaptation of Charles Kingley's "The Water Babies" (1863). The Pied Piper is based on the German folk tale of The Pied Piper of Hamelin. The Grasshopper and the Ants is based on the Aesop's Fables story The Ant and the Grasshopper. The Wise Little Hen is a take on the Traditional story of The Little Red Hen and the Grain of Wheat from A Child's Book of Stories (1911). The Goddess of Spring is loosely based on the Greek Myth "Persophone and the Lord of the Underworld" in the Homeric Hymns. The Flying Mouse is based on Jean De La Fontaine's "The Jay Dressed Up in the Peacocks Feathers" (1668), which was in turn inspired by Aesop's "The Bird in Borrowed Feathers". Funny Little Bunnies is based on the story of the Easter Bunny, expanding the character into an entire colony of bunnies preparing eggs for Easter. The Tortoise and the Hare is based on, obviously, the Aesop's Fable The Tortoise and the Hare. The Golden Touch is based on the "Midas and the Golden Touch" Greek Myth from Ovid's The Metamorphoses. Who Killed Cock Robin is a burlesque of the English nursery rhyme The Death and Burial of Cock Robin from Tommy Thumb's Pretty Song Book (1744). Three Little Kittens is based on Eliza Follen's 1856 nursery rhyme The Three Little Kittens. Cock O The Walk is based on Jean de la Fontaine's "The Two Cocks" (1678). Three Blind Mouseketeers is a mashup of the English nursery rhyme Three Blind Mice and the story The Three Musketeers. The Country Cousin is based on The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse by Aesop. Little Hiawatha is loosely inspired by The Song of Hiawatha. Wynken, Blynken, and Nod is based on Eugene Field's 1889 childrens poem of the same name.

Averted in the original "The Ugly Duckling", where ducks eating a worm isn't portrayed negatively. Crossed with Protagonist-Centered Morality in "Birds In The Spring" and "Peculiar Penguins", where the birds trying to eat their prey (a grasshopper and a fish, respectively) are portrayed sympathetically, while the predators trying to eat those same birds (a snake and a shark, respectively) are portrayed as the villains.

Silly Symphonies / int_b11ac9f5	comment	Abusive Parents: The mother duck towards her Unfavorite in the 1939 version of "The Ugly Duckling". The same could also apply to the mother hen in the 1931 version, although she later makes amends after the duckling rescues her chick babies from drowning. After the boy mouse tries to fly with 2 leaves in "The Flying Mouse" 1934, he gets blown backwards and his rear end gets poked by the thorn. He then dives and falls in the bathtub and splashes his mouse mother and his mouse sister. After his sister's yellow dress shrinks. The boy mouse is embarrassed and tries to run away only to have his mother grab his tail and spank his exposed bare bottom until it turns red. Later on, when the mouse boy is granted bat wings, he flies down and knocks at the door only to have his mother mistake him for a bat and attack him with a mop and throw objects at him. After the boy mouse has the bat wings removed from him, he runs home, and his mother accepts him back. It's strange that the Mouse Boy's mother would suddenly love the boy mouse and hug him after spanking him earlier for ruining his sister's dress.
