Here are a few frames from just one scene where Porky turns into a drip. The Do-Do lures him into the entrance of a shaft.
And out a faucet somewhere in Wackyland.
The drip (part of which splashes away) reconstitutes into Porky.
Izzy Ellis and Norm McCabe get the animation credits. There’s no story credit.
It may be because I saw the remake before the original, but in this case I actually prefer the replacement gag Freleng used in "Dough for the Do-Do", which has Porky walking through the sign's opening and then apparently falling, until we see after the pull-back that he's actually floating in front of a moving vertical background, and finally hits the ground when the background finishes unspooling.
ReplyDeleteLike the WB shield gag or the later 'mountains on a curtain" bit, it visually breaks the fourth wall between what we're supposed to believe is animated reality and the techniques that are used to create the cartoon.
