Regarding Golden Age theatrical cartoons:If Goofy cartoons are everyday situations made humorous Donald cartoons are about the humor of being incredibly unlucky, then what are Mickey cartoons generally about? Cause it seems like they just have him doing random things and succeeding at it.
>>146446746Mickey is a regular guy doing regular guy things. That's not the same as Goofy though. Goofy tends to wear a lot of different hats in his cartoons.
>>146446746About Mickey.
>>146446746early on mickey was a jerk
>>146448566Early Mickey was just a catalyst for showing off animation synced with sound. Most of the shorts up to 1930 were just Mickey banging on objects, playing instruments, tapping his toe to the music, or pulling on things to make a sound. They weren't really concerned with a basic three-act story until things like Pioneer Days or The Fire Fighters where Mickey has an actual conflict to face.
>>146448566Nah, he was based.
