Honeymoon Hotel
Directed by Earl Duvall
Release Date:
February 17, 1934
Main Character(s):
None
Summary:
In Bugville, a recently married bug couple stay at a hotel where their lovemaking becomes so hot, it burns the place down.
That’s Not All, Folks:
This was the first Warner Bros. cartoon in color. However, since Disney had exclusive rights to 3-strip Technicolor until mid-1935, the other studios had to use a cheaper color process called Cinecolor, which mainly shows red and green hues.
What I Like About This One:
The various objects that make up Bugville.
The male bug using a pea pod as a boat.
A caterpillar carrying the couple's bags.
The nosy hotel detective getting spat at in the eye and getting socked by a doorknob (the two adjacent doorknobs then shake hands!).
The fire department vehicles being made of roller skates (which carries a squirt bottle), a centipede (which has a comb for a ladder), and a cheese grater on wheels (which has a corkscrew to slide down for safety).
