Gaguinho na Malucolândia

In 1937 Robert Clampett was promoted to director and one year later he created his first, true classic cartoon of the many that he would direct for Warner Bros. studio: Porky in Wackyland. Along with Tex Avery and Frank Tashlin, Clampett was instrumental in creating the Warner style. He was an innovator who liked to push the boundaries of the medium, and Wackyland is a perfect example of this. It was also the first of Clampett's many cartoons to use hallucinatory, surrealistic images; others would include The Great Piggy Bank Robbery, The Big Snooze and Tin Pan Alley Cats (which re-used animation from Porky in Wackyland.) Wackyland was later remade in color as Dough for the Do-Do by Friz Freleng.

This short has Porky hunting for the last of the Do-Do Birds. He ventures into the strange and hilarious Wackyland to find him. It's a classic Warner Bros. short with wild and random things happening every second. One of Porky's best.

This is almost too wacky - but as long as you remember this Looney Tunes cartoon is supposed to be wacky it can be funny in places. I say this because some of the wackiness in "Porky in Wackyland" seems very silly and almost disturbing, but as long as you see the funny side of it, it is perfectly fine. If you do not like anything that is remotely crazy, wacky or silly, then this will be an utter nightmare for you (if you happen to be being forced to watch it, otherwise, you ought to stop watching IMMEDIATELY).

I enjoyed this episode for its craziness, Porky, the Dodo, the animation and some of the jokes included. I will have to watch this episode a great deal of times before I remember all of the jokes and you probably will have to as well (unless you did not like it).

This episode starts with a newspaper article about Porky going to hunt the last dodo. He goes to darkest Africa (the portrayal of this is not a comfortable one for me, which is odd), to a place "where anything can happen". The population of this area unknown to everybody else is 100 nuts and one squirrel (this is the first proper joke). After this - most things do happen...

I recommend this to people who like old Looney Tunes, Porky and wackiness. Not only is this also worth watching for historical value, but it is surprisingly good for modern audiences as well. Enjoy "Porky in Wackyland"! :-)

This cartoon is an early pinnacle of animation insanity, the prototypical Warner Brothers short. A blitzkrieg of jokes, puns, and free-wheeling mayhem, WB-style cartoons sometimes equaled, but never surpassed, "Porky in Wackyland". Every square inch of every frame is packed with information that flows in several directions at once. Carl Stalling's score is as integral to this cartoon as any of the visual elements (and more so than the "script"). For these, and many other, reasons, "Porky in Wackyland" is the blueprint for the best of WB cartoons, as well as a signpost to various late-20th Century highbrow/lowbrow aesthetics.

Porky Pig goes on a hunt to catch the surreally elusive last Do-Do bird.

This cartoon has been credited as the 8th best cartoon ever made. I am not going to get into the minutia of deciding if it is better or worse than 8th, but it absolutely needs to be on that list, because it takes such a simple thing and makes it so strange.

The way I saw this was side by side with "Dough for the Do-Do". You could watch them individually, but side by side will blow your mind. Almost all of the scenes are identical, though some of the backgrounds are colored differently. Saying one is better than the other is hard to do.
