Flop Goes the Weasel (1943) User Reviews

no surprise that this isn't available

"Flop Goes the Weasel" is another one of the Warner Bros. cartoons not widely available due to its racially offensive content (I saw it on YouTube). In this case, a hen - closely resembling a mammy - sees that her egg is about to hatch and runs off to get something for the chick, when a weasel steals the egg. The chick then mistakes the weasel for his mammy and wants to play hide and seek, thereby injuring the weasel in various and sundry ways.

I actually hope that Warner Bros. eventually releases this one on DVD (provided of course that they include a warning about the non-PC material). It is worth seeing as a historical and cultural reference, if absolutely nothing else.

All record of this cartoon's existence has been deleted . . .

. . . from the American MPAA film censorship records, which is not all that surprising, given the documented fact (see *THIS FILM IS NOT YET RATED) that the Roman Cult of Sexual Perversion controls the MPAA. WHY would the MPAA be so scared of more people being exposed to FLOP GOES THE WEASEL? You only need to watch this Warner Bros. warning about cannibalistic sexual predators to find out. Just one in a series of warning shots from Warner Bros. Animated Shorts Seers division (aka, The Looney Tuners), FLOP GOES THE WEASEL itemizes some of the ways that We Americans of (The Then) Far Future SHOULD respond if a Red Commie KGB chief ever installs a money-laundering serial finger rapist into the USA's once-hallowed White House. The Wild Weasel of the title represents Red Commie KGB Chief Vlad "The Mad Russian" Putin's Washington spy, Don Juan Rump, of course. At 4:53 of FLOP GOES THE WEASEL, Rump is clubbed unconscious. He's electrocuted at 5:56, and drowned in a cage-like apparatus at 7:15. Clearly, Warner Bros. is reaching forward from the Past to Warn us of the Here & Now to deal with Rump along the lines of Extreme Prejudice!
