OllieSuave-007 Another Droopy cartoon I remembered fondly from my younger days, about Droopy trying to earn a Boy Scout honor and be awarded with a presidential visit. Of course, Spike tries to sabotage Droopy's stellar performances and attempts to meet the president in his place. But, what results are hilarious outsmarts from Droopy - and plenty of slapstick comedy to follow at the expense of Spike.

TheLittleSongbird Love animation, it was a big part of my life as a child, particularly Disney, Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry, and still love it whether it's film, television or cartoons.Also have much admiration for Tex Avery, an animation genius whose best cartoons are animated masterpieces and some of the best he ever did. Generally like the Droopy cartoons and the character himself a lot, his best cartoons are classics and among Avery's best. 'Droopy's Good Deed' is among my favourite Droopy cartoons, and one of his best and funniest pairings with Spike. Underneath the hilarious humour and wacky antics between Droopy and Spike, there is also a heart and good intention to 'Droopy's Good Deed', which makes it good-natured, heart-warming and the viewer liking Droopy even more than we do already and wanting to overcome his hurdles set by Spike.Droopy, as usual, is so well established in personality and is high on the humour and charisma scale, also possessing a golden heart. Spike is even funnier and more interesting, his scheming and tricks are violent but imaginative and hilarious when everything he does goes badly wrong.Typically, Avery does a wonderful job directing, with his unique, unlike-any-other visual and characteristic and incredibly distinctive wacky humour style all over it as can be expected.Once again there is nothing sadistic or repetitious about 'Droopy's Good Deed'. It's hilarious, imaginative content that has enough variety to stop it from being too predictable. The ending is a riot in particular. Whether with the central conflict it is easy to figure out who gets the upper hand and who gets the worst of it doesn't matter here.It is no surprise either that the animation is superb. The character designs are unique, Avery always did have creative character designs, and suitably fluid. The music, courtesy of Scott Bradley, is lushly and cleverly orchestrated, with lively and energetic rhythms and fits very well indeed.Can never fault the voice acting in the Droopy cartoons, Bill Thompson and Daws Butler were always independently excellent voice actors and 'Droopy's Good Deed' is further testament to this.Overall, brilliant. 10/10 Bethany Cox

ccthemovieman-1 You have to laugh just looking at Spike here in the opening scenes of this Droopy cartoon. In this story, he's apparently a hobo and he's been kicked off a train. He has a little derby on and is smoking a half-cigar. After getting the boot, he winds up next to some Boy Scout and overhears that the winner of a contest between these two finalists will get to meet the President of the United States. Oh, boy - that's for him!One of the finalists, of course, is Droopy. The other one is, well, it doesn't matter because Spike quickly grabs him, puts on his little uniform (Spike looks like he's wearing what young girls wear today - half an outfit) and is ready to battle Droopy for the big award. (Odd that nobody notices the change in scouts!)Spike does the usual, trying to sabotage Droopy at every turn. We get funny scenes involving lightning, wild life photography, Spike imitating a "damsel in distress" in one scene and later, an old lady crossing a street and a baby on the top of the "Umpire State Building" as the action switches from rural to urban. One funny line (there isn't much dialog in Droopy cartoons) after Spike is burned to a crisp: "Hey, Blackie. Any more babes in there?"

jdremmer A great cartoon by a master. A very talented example of classic art. However this copy does not include the scene of Spike the hound removing an African American woman from the house fire. Droopy hound saves a lady first and then Spike saves one himself, which is difficult for him to carry. Other content is missing as well. Still a nice lovely cartoon, even though it is the most popular version known. My dad was an art and animation collector and growing up showed me the details of his hobby. I was fascinated as a child by all the wonderful drawings, and cartoons he had. It was very enjoyable to us. My brothers were careful around his collection. This cartoon stands out to me, as one he said would be only a handful of its type with alternative releases. He was very keen in collecting rare pieces. He said various forms exist because of sensitivity issues for various reasons. He also said that most of these cartoons were shown to adults only in those times. This is something that did not make sense to us as children. We thought cartoons were all the same. I recommend this cartoon for all its clever antics and humor. Very enjoyable. Wonderfully entertaining.
