Going! Going! Gosh! with my commentary (part 1 of 3)
🎤 Whisper Transcript (en)
⏱ 163s
"Okay, so this is the fourth Coyote verse short, the third Roadrunner cartoon. This is Going Going Gosh, and it came out just a few months after Beep Beep. So first cartoon comes out years pass, a Bugs Bunny cartoon comes out, Beep Beep returns. This is really, at this point, a few months later, now we really established this is an ongoing series. It begins with the same kind of prologue that a lot of these early shorts start with, which is that the coyote tries and fails to catch the Roadrunner in a very basic way, and then he has to start getting clever. It's the last time that they'll use, they've been using the same Latin names for the first three shorts, and I think this is the last one, and they're going to start varying it, changing what the joke Latin classifications are for the coyote and the Roadrunner. Also, you'll notice, I feel like the look of the films is starting to change just a little bit. It's subtle, but I feel like, although this is still very obviously, those red rocks, those red mountains are a very distinct feature of these first ones, and I love the way those look. A lot of these, I mean, I've said this before. I mean, it's going to get a little bit repetitive, but I do think it's interesting to note the way they mix things up in terms of how long the beats are, whose fault the mishap is. Listen to the music here. Just a little, the Karl Stallings scoring for these, it's so moment to moment. And it really, one of the things that I think is amazing about these cartoons is that they had to time all this without, you know, they didn't have the benefit of like, well, we'll change it if the timing doesn't work out. They had to get the timing right at the animation level. There was not a process where you go back and fix something."

<p class="text-xs text-slate-350 leading-relaxed break-words">The cutting between boulder and Road Runner while pushing in closer is such a classic technique. Works so well here while also feeling not very Coyote-verse in style? Does it happen again?</p>
