When Magoo Flew | comment |
When Magoo Flew is a 1954 animated short film produced by United Productions of America and directed by Pete Burness.It stars, you guessed it, Mr. Magoo. In this cartoon, Magoo, voiced as usual by Jim Backus, goes out to see a movie, specifically a 3-D Movie. Magoo, being basically blind, walks right past the movie theater and instead winds up at the airport. He gets a "ticket" from a guess-your-weight machine and blunders his way onto a plane, still thinking that he's in a movie theater. A Real Life drama then plays out as Magoo finds himself sitting next to a bank robber.The title was later borrowed for a book about the history of UPA itself. | |

Blind Mistake | |
When Magoo Flew / int_54bbe8ae | comment |
Blind Mistake: A hallmark of the series, as Magoo's extreme nearsightedness has him wandering around the outside of a plane. | |

Outside Ride | |
When Magoo Flew / int_95713538 | comment |
Outside Ride: Magoo mistakes an emergency exit door for the theater exit, and spends the middle third of the cartoon roaming around the outside of the plane, complaining about the air conditioning being on too high. | |

Oh, Crap!: A pretty great one from the pilots when they see Magoo appear in front of their windshield. | |

Shout-Out | |
When Magoo Flew / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: The theater Magoo passes has a poster advertising film "The Tattle-Tale Heart" featuring "Theodora Parmelee". That's a Shout Out to another UPA cartoon, a remarkable adaptation of "The Tell-Tale Heart", released that same year and directed by Ted Parmelee. | |

When Magoo Flew / int_cf511248 | comment |
All Part of the Show: Magoo thinks that everything he sees on board the plane, specifically the cop talking to the stewardess, is part of a particularly realistic 3-D Movie. | |

Contrived Coincidence | |
When Magoo Flew / int_dc579c91 | comment |
Contrived Coincidence: This is how Mr. Magoo manages to get on a flight despite not having a ticket. He boards the plane thinking it's a movieplex and tells the stewardess "orchestra," meaning the orchestra section of a theater...and just so happens to be standing among members of an actual orchestra. The stewardess naturally thinks he's declaring that he's part of the group and waves him aboard. | |

Limited Animation | |
When Magoo Flew / int_e034faef | comment |
Limited Animation: The UPA house style is in full display here. Best exemplified in the scene between the cop and the stewardess, where only their lips are moving. | |

Briefcase Full of Money: Although we never actually see the money, that's what the nervous man sitting next to Magoo is carrying. | |
