Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

TheLittleSongbird The Bosko cartoons may not be animation masterpieces, but they are fascinating as examples of Looney Tunes in their early days before the creation of more compelling characters and funnier and more creative cartoons. There are some good cartoons, as well as some average or less ones.'Bosko the Lumberjack' is a very good Bosko cartoon, with a more heroic and likable Bosko to usual, and one of the better ones. The story is a bit predictable with it being a little obvious as to how it was going to end. Not all the pacing is consistent, most of it is energetic but occasionally the energy is a little lost.Honey is likable and the villain is menacing and entertaining. The characters are archetypal but well done.As said, Bosko is endearing and heroic.Furthermore, the animation is good. Not exactly refined but fluid and crisp enough with some nice detail, it is especially good in the meticulous backgrounds and some remarkably flexible yet natural movements for Bosko. The music doesn't disappoint either, its infectious energy, rousing merriment, lush orchestration and how well it fits with the animation is just a joy.Sound quality has clarity and the synchronisation isn't sloppy and has imagination. The way Bosko is animated is well done and remarkably natural. The gags is imaginative and rarely miss or less than very amusing.Overall, very enjoyable. 8/10 Bethany Cox

Edgar Allan Pooh . . . of warnings to We Americans of the USA's Far Future against the Advent of Rump from Warner's Animated Shorts Seers division (aka, the Looney Tuners), the unparalleled expert prognosticators of 21st Century America's upcoming Calamities, Catastrophes, Cataclysms, and Apocalypti. Once again, the Looney Tunes prophets use "Bosko" to represent White House Resident-Elect Rump, threatening every aspect of Nature surrounding him (trees, moose, skunks, woodpeckers) with his ax. The reflects the fact that the REAL new ruler, or czar, of America--Red Commie KGB Chief Vlad "Mad Dog" Putin--is keen on reducing the USA to the kind of Chernobyl-like worthless wasteland to which his Commmie forebears--starting with Vlad "The Impaler" Lenin--have doomed Russia over the past century. About halfway through BOSKO THE LUMBERJACK this logging camp's REAL muscle--Pierre--shows up eating a nail sandwich, just to illustrate how much tougher he is than Putin's infirm geriatric puppet, Bosko\Rump. ("Pierre" and Putin, of course, are both two-syllable names beginning with "P," and "Pierre" means "mean old stinker" in Russian.) Pierre soon kidnaps Bosko's gal Honey through the tactic of inserting a giant hook into her panties, whisking her off to his sex pad hideout. This is simply a warning clue from Warner as to what all these Red State American women who voted for Rump because he reminded them of their senile Grandpappies are in for when Putin's Legion of Imperial Storm Troopers begins snatching them up by the thousands and whisks them off as Sex Slaves to Mother Russia (just like the Japanese did with Korean women during World War Two) as self-confessed serial finger rapist and court-documented Wife-Raper Rump winks on the sidelines, egging on his Puppetmaster Putin.

Robert Reynolds This is one of my favorite Bosko shorts. It has some nice animation, a lot of nice visual gags and the timing is fairly good here. I want to discuss some of the bits in this one, so there will be some slight spoilers in my comments below: As the title suggests, the first part of this short takes place at a lumberjack camp (either that, or it's an ax lover's convention) and the first scenes have various critters chopping and/or sawing down trees. There are some nice visual gags in the first minute or two.We first encounter Bosko in silhouette (which is more impressive than Bosko in person is). He chops down a small tree, which has a very elaborate death scene-aided and abetted by Bosko. Bosko (who seems almost to dance instead of walk in almost every short) then is seen having encounters with a moose and a skunk before Honey brings him his lunch, which Bosko eats with an exaggerated gusto which is faintly disquieting. Enter the villain of the piece-another lumberjack, first seen eating a sandwich made of two pieces of wood and nails for the filling. He spots Honey and decides he wants "a big kiss", so he hauls her up a rope. Bosko notices she's gone only after she screams and we're then treated to gags involving Bosko's failed attempts to rescue Honey.Eventually, the bad guy makes a run for it (figuratively and literally) in his canoe, leaving Bosko to give chase on a log which suddenly sprouts a sculling crew of mice with oars and Bosko starts calling out the stroke count! There's a really nice visual bit toward the end of the water chase that I won't spoil here.The bad guy takes Honey to his cabin, where a moose head mounted on the wall as a gun rack acquits itself better in defending Honey's honor than Bosko has so far. Bosko comes in and doesn't initially do any better at the cabin than he did back at the camp, at one point sliding across the room and under a bed, to emerge with a "crown" which looks suspiciously like the top of a broken chamberpot! In the end (as Bosko is, of course, the star here) he beats the bad guy and Honey calls him her hero and there is a suitable closing gag.I truly hope this one makes it onto a Looney Tunes Golden Collection in the very near future-I really like it and think it's one of the better Bosko shorts. Most recommended.
