Livestonth I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

Mightyzebra This is a Warner Brothers cartoon, made with Porky Pig, less than a year old.In this cartoon, in the 1800's, a cat called Beans has found gold. After kissing his love (the cat who is Porky's "daughter") goodbye, he head off and with Porky and townfolk, he mines for gold. He seems to be doing very well. Then, along comes a robber, who has his eye on one bag of gold - but he did not count on Beans coming along...This is a very interesting cartoon in a historical and plot-wise point of view. It is historical because of the way it is made, which is old and the humour, which is old. The plot is interesting, partly because it was unlike the plots of many of the Warner Brothers cartoons in the future. I like the cartoon because of this and I also like it because of Beans the cat (who for some reason reminds me of Mickey mouse), Porky (who looks a lot different) and Beans' sweetheart. Some parts of the cartoon are very cute.Well worth a watch - especially for people who like historical cartoons and exciting old cartoons! Enjoy "Gold Diggers of '49". :-)

Lee Eisenberg Porky Pig's second appearance (and Tex Avery's directorial debut) does feature a few racial stereotypes, but overall, "Gold Diggers of '49" made me laugh. Set at the time of the 1849 California gold rush, Porky and Beans are prospectors, and Beans wants to marry Porky's daughter Kitty (the three characters got introduced in "I Haven't Got a Hat" earlier in 1935, and Porky looks as if he needs triple bypass surgery). Part of this involves Beans guarding a little something of Porky's.If you've seen any of Tex Avery's cartoons, then you should know what sorts of things to expect here. The gags aren't quite as zany as I might have hoped for, but I try to imagine how hilarious they must have looked the first time that moviegoers ever saw them. If absolutely nothing else, this should be of interest to cartoon fans as a look into the Termite Terrace crowd's early days. Worth seeing.As for the question of how a pig fathered a cat...well, in cartoons things don't have to make sense.

TheOtherFool 'Beans' is a golddigger in '49 and to many surprise he actually finds something, just as the sleepy town he's living in had no high hopes anymore (as we see in the introduction).Beans instead of keeping the gold (that comes in coins, very handy indeed) for himself is telling everybody in town, including Porky Pig whose daughter he wants to marry. I love it when they find a book called 'how to find gold', it says 'Start to Dig!'.Then enter a villain who steals what appears to be a sack of gold (but really was only Porky's lunch) but Beans gets it back in his supercar.Not a lot going on in this cartoon, a bit racist at times but nothing to get too excited about on all accounts. 5/10.

Chip_douglas It's 1849 and prospectors are searching for gold in Red Gulch. Our hero Beans finds it by way of a slot machine and inspires a small town to join the gold rush. There are lots of captions to move the story along, although they never explain what kind of animal Beans is. I suppose he look a bit like Felix the cat, but then most of the characters in the thirties did. Still the Warner brothers must have had high hopes for Beans, as he gets the honour of saying "That's all folks" at the end. Lots of silly animals appear, including an unnecessary barbershop quartet and a big fat pig who seems to be in charge of things. Could this slob really be Porky? He has the stutter, but that is the only recognizable feature.Enter the villain employing an impressive lasso gun to steal Porky's most prized possession. If beans gets it back Porky tells him he can literally have his daughter. Luckily for Beans the girl does not look like her father but seems to be of the same unidentified black and white species as our hero. The chase scene features some early examples of the kind of lunacy that would make Supervisor Fred (Tex) Avery famous in later years, but the pace is much slower. The art of animation was so new at this time, that just seeing funny animals riding mules and horses, driving cars and playing racial stereotypes was good enough for a laugh. 4 out of 10
