Max Fleischer's Gulliver's Travels: Difference between revisions

* [[Scenery Porn]]: Some of the background and layout work is very well done and almost compensates for the uneven animation.

* [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here]]: King Little when he sees Gulliver.

* [[Shaming the Mob|Shaming The Nations]]: Gulliver in the films ending. See [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]].

* [[Silly Reason for War]]: One of many changes made from the original story is that instead of a holy war over which end of an egg should be broken, King Bombo declares war on King Little for ''not playing the song he wanted to play at Glory's wedding''. In theory the Fleischers could have kept a touch of the original novels [[Satire]] by at least pointing out how utterly contrived and ridiculous this is, but the film instead plays it like something that were supposed to be ''taking seriously''.

* [[Terrible Trio]]: Bombo's spies, Sneak, Snoop and Snitch respectively.

* [["The Reason You Suck" Speech]]: Given by Gulliver to the dueling kingdoms after Prince David is apparently killed saving Gulliver from being shot, but it ends on a high note:

* [[This Means War]]: What the argument between King Little and Bombo literally amounts to.

* [[The Twelve Principles of Animation]]: A result of the Fleischers trying to compete with ''Snow White'' was beefing up their animation considerably, as well as attempting to adapt to these principles. Unfortunately, much of the animation in the film is ruined by sloppy inbetween work and terrible inking, giving the drawings a mushy, floaty feeling to them. This was undoubtably a result of Gulliver's tight deadline for production, as well as the studio have a mix of East Coast and West Coast animators who were constantly at odds with each other and their approaches to animation.
