I also seem to remember that during the early eighties the maid in 'Tom and Jerry' cartoons suddenly switched from having a 'black lady's voice' (I don't know how to best describe it) to suddenly having an Irish accent. Probably done at the time because it was realised that the original accent might now be offensive.

The haunted house animation is fantastic fun.

The only banned cartoons that he did were the ones featuring a character putting a gun to his head (My favorite is the one where Peppy puts a gun to his head to lure the she-cat out of a glass box).

Coal Black... okay, we can all agree its incredibly racist, but its also rather disturbingly subtextual as well.

I did a Representation of the Holocaust module this year (last Uni year)... and we watched this video (along with newsreel footage of rescuing folk from The Death Camps) and this was just unbelievably crass.

Evil Hobbit wrote:Still can't believe that haunted house short is banned. It's also on the mickey bw treasure 2. In the vault section. With a non-skipable leonard maltin speech before it. Apparently it was not banned for it's demonic images but because the Mouse said 'Mammy!' one time in the short. Which refers to a stand up comedian who said that while depicting a black person.

Has anyone ever seen this?

I liked the fact it's set in Lazy town. Cue that dodgy 'Fuck Yeah!' Sig, anyone?
Was the fact that the main character looked mixed race supposed to make it more palettable for the audience?
