Trivia:
First cartoon in which Mickey Mouse has eyes with pupils. The new design was made for The Sorcerer's Apprentice, which was produced first but shelved for inclusion in Fantasia (1940). Also features shading on Mickey's cheeks and Pluto's body, additions too expensive to use again. moreQuotes:
Mickey Mouse: [finding out it's a bear behind him and not Pluto] Oh-oh-oh-oh! I-I-It's you. Oh, heh-heh, I mean, it is you, ain't it? I-I mean, isn't it? Heh-heh, heh. I thought you were Pluto, but you're not Pluto. You're you, huh? Huh? Well, I'm, uh, Mickey Mouse. You know? Mickey Mouse? I hope you've heard of me, I hope. moreFAQ

The only place I ever hoped to see Mickey sporting a gun would be in an editorial cartoon. So much for hoping. The kiddies get to see their favorite mouse lurking around the woods attempting to blow out the bird brains of some quail. He doesn't even flinch when he sees a couple with their babies trailing after them. Nope...he just fires off a round. Cute Walt...really cute.
Nominated for an Oscar? This one hardly deserved a high caliber award. Mickey's constant use of derogatory language was also a big turn-off. I guess if talking trash to your supposed friend and trying to shoot forest creatures is entertainment to you, you'll be wowed by "The Pointer" 1/10
