Chuck Jones attempted something of the same effect by bending background elements back for fast Pans to enhance the sense of speed. But he tended to bend them the wrong way.Ray Pointerhttp://www.inkwellimagesink.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3738012638904762739.post-14841794985565908392013-01-14T12:57:35.030-08:002013-01-14T12:57:35.030-08:00Famous Studios would drive the idea into the groun...Famous Studios would drive the idea into the ground, but this is the first Popeye where the formula of Olive needing help with some task and has to decide between Popeye and Bluto to handle the work.
