What's the first cartoon you remember watching?
3 Little pigs.
And also this cartoon when trees fall in love with each other and a jealous ugly tree start a fire to kill them only he is is the one to die in the fire.
>>80867211
I can barely remember it. Something to do with changing seasons.
>>80867322
TIME FOR SPRING I SAY!!
Tough to say. I think the first TV animation I saw was Pirates of the Dark Water. My grandparents also had these old VHS collections of classics, so I also recall one that was about the world of the future with weird machines that extruded cars and other abstract inventions.
Other possible candidates include Fantasia, Pinnochio, or any number of Disney movies.
Earliest one I distinctly remember because I associate it with an ear infection (or something) that hurt like a bitch.

I think this was on it too (it was some kind of Fleischer Cartoons Christmas VHS).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TcRohLJx6g
Upon rewatching these- are all Fleischer cartoons SUPER DEPRESSING at the beginning?
>>80867211
Fuck. Inspector Gadget or Loony Toons. Or maybe Merry Melodies or Bosco. First cartoon film I remember was probably Little Mermaid.
>>80867359
That's it. And I found it on Youtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nv3kZ0XYfWU
This and spot the dog.
I think my parents coddled me with Winnie the Pooh when I was a toddler. And then I amassed a collection of disney movies and sketchy vhs tapes with cartoon shorts from various studios.

This CGI effect is weird. U sure hope it doesn't get over-used in the future.

>>80867711
This looks motherfucking amazing.
Probably those old superman cartoons from the 40s and anything max fleischer
The Lion King is pretty vividly the first movie I recall seeing in theatres and the first thing I remember watching. It was before we left the States, and I was so small I had to sit with the seat folded up to see over the head of the man in front of me.
>>80867711

>>80868025
If you watched the same VHS as I did you also saw that one with the little crying duck with an attache case and the weird Elmer Fudd design.
I was so young I can hardly remember a thing about it
But I do remember one thing:
>And now here's Beany and Cecil in
>A BOB CLAMPET CARTOOOOON!
>>80868063
Yup
the flintstones
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRsPdzivDrM
And these two are still my favorite cartoon characters 26 years later.

Well, have you seen the year those cartoons were made. The USA was in the middle of the great depression.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wgcrVzxkLOQ
Definitely the first one that came to mind, also Pink Panther.
That Tom & Jerry epsiodes were Tom is playing the hungarian rhapsody
Shit was based, I remember loving the slapstick as child and when i rewatched it after 16 later loving how well nailed was the whole animation/music coordination.
>>80867211
The Smurfs, probably
>>80867447
I remember clips of this being used in Shining Time Station.
Wile E Coyote vs Roadrunner
Winnie the Pooh
Winnie the Pooh
(Something something something)
Stuffed with fluff
Winnie the Pooh
Don't remember the specific episode just a bit of the intro song.
The first animated thing I watched was probably one of my big brothers VHS tapes that I watched a lot as a kid. He had a bunch, including Cool McCool (>>80867711) and Starzinger ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jyQxpoRT7Pc ), but the other stuff was too random or misc TV recordings for me to remember properly.
A bunch of stopmotion BBC preschool series, stuff like Fireman Sam and Noddy.
>>80867211
Merry Melodies, can't remember which one
Rocky & Bullwinkle on VHS from the library, or Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

I Love to Singa
A cartoon is actually my first memory. I was in a crib in a room with brown walls, a beige ceiling and a grey carpet. Through the crib bars, I could see an old TV playing "Robin Hood:, the 1973 cartoon.
I can't remember exactly, but my grandpa had bought me some Mighty Mouse tapes which I watched religiously when I was very very young.
When I saw Superman for the first time, he was a derivation of Mighty Mouse for me, not the other way around.
Chapi Chapo wasn't a cartoon but it was animated. I loved this as a kid. I was 5 in 1985 when I first saw it.
>>80867311
that framed picture always gets me
>>80870142
That's a nice and comfy first memory.
My first memory is being on an operating table with alien instruments that do shit to me while an evil doctor and my passive and emotionless parents stand in front of me (or above me). I look up at them. I had a hernia when I was 1 and a half years old and had to stay at the hospital, which was like monster town for me. Weird how memory incorporates emotion into what actually happened.

>>80867211
Some musical about trains or construction vehicles fixing a damn or stopping a flood.
one of the songs was like "Get up and go"
>>80871215
Great Harbor Rescue was its name
Blade with whom I have lived, blade with whom I now die, serve right and justice one last time, seek one last heart of evil, still one last life of pain. Cut well, old friend, and then farewell
This and the Rankin Bass Hobbit cartoon were my bread and butter as a kid. I think I wore out at least our original copy of Flight of Dragons cause we had to fall back on a home-recorded copy.
not exactly /co/ but it was the first animation I remember watching, also took me 25 years to know the truth if sapphire was a he or a she.
>>80871373
reminded me for a second of prince valiant
>>80870862
>Bye dad
>>80867472
Holy shit, I haven't thought of that series in years. I have some of those on VHS.
some Harman/Ising MGM cartoon? i think it was about a gold mine maybe a golddigger
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1ih23QtRxxE
I think it mentally disturbed me but I can't exactly pinpoint how. I'm on 4chan so that's a start.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jrjWWvynr5s
Balloon Land or Fist of the North Star.
BL scared the shit out of me though. Everything was so jarring, in my face and too 'other worldly' for my babby brain and then everyone started getting murdered.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYmasgNskzw
>>80872854
Of course they're scary, none of these were intended for children. Children couldn't afford to go to the cinema in those days.
Tough call. Either Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, Pooh's Grand Adventure, or The Fox and the Hound.
>>80872854
>Fist of the North Star
How the fuck did you get to watch something that batshit insane at that age? Did your parents just not give a shit?
>>80867211
All I know it was tom and jerry. You could show me every episode and I can't tell you which one it was, but i'm certain it was tom and jerry. I was probably 3 at the time.
First animated film was either lion king, Pinocchio, or snow white
Doctor Snuggles
or
Mole (Krtek)
Not sure I think Doctor Snuggles was the first though.
First /co/ related thing that came to mind. Also where in the world Carman sandiego? And pokemon. VeggieTales too.
>>80873144
My dad liked it so I'd watch it with him, along with Ninja Scroll, Dirty Pair, Akira and some weird anime movie called X.
Also watched a lot of slasher films and a bunch of black and white war movies.
Dad didn't give a shit but if my mom caught me watching something violent or slightly sexual by myself she'd get mad and make me switch to something more for kids. For some reason her rule seemed to be I was only allowed to watch them if I was watching them with an adult. This is the woman who gave me a softcore porn tattoo magazine that only censored tits and junk with a black dot to keep me quiet in the car.
My mom's censoring was very confusing and frustrating since it was constantly switching from "you can't watch this", "you can only watch this if you cover your eyes at this part", "only if youre dad is watching it",etc. At some point I remember yelling at my mom and trying to explain to her that these cartoons and movies weren't real because I legitimately had begun to think my mom thought they were.

This specific loony toons cartoon

Top kek. I'm so sorry you had to put up with that anon.
Your dad sounds pretty cool though.
>>80870761
Cool, that's one of my first memories too.
They had these metal clips with tiny needles/injectors stapled to my arm, like 6 of them in total clamped to my arm. I am screaming myself senseless and my parents stand stonefaced.
The clips was supposed to inject different chemicals, testing me for allergies to see how the arm/skin would react.
As for cartoons, i don't remember. Something from the 80's.
I know I've seen older cartoons, most likely Looney Tunes, but the farthest I can concretely remember is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgV3vdOT09I
>>80867211
>>80867211
Fuck man I don't remember that. Cartoons have existed since way before I was born, how the fuck am I supposed to remember the first one I saw? I know you're asking for the first one I remember seeing, but that's pretty fucking hard to remember too since I've been seeing them since before I can remember. It's somewhere in that hazy place between being a baby who can't remember shit and being a toddler who can.
Stupid question, really.
The Dover boys.

this shit along with rewatching hey Arnold is reminding me so much of my childhood. I have no way to describe this feel but its a powerful fucking cacophony of emotions.
>>80867211
Probably Bobby's World or The Transformers.
>>80867667
THIS
>>80867211
Either Beauty & the Beast, Rugrats, or Ren & Stimpy
first movie I saw in theaters was the lion king
>>80867211
I wanna bop that bunny.
The episode of Thomas the Tank Engine where Thomas is being picked on by the freight cars and gets pushed around by them. I had this episode on vhs and I distinctly remember a weird flub with the tape where halfway through the episode, the audio would suddenly cut out for a second and you hear some man mumbling for a second before the music kicks back in. I was very weirded out by that when I was a toddler.
Years later, I was watching that same episode with a younger relative on a dvd that had this error fixed. It didn't feel right without it.
>>80867211
Had a ton of VHS casettes with cartoons on them as a kid, including Bunny Mooning, which I have very clear memories of for some reason. So it was probably either that, or something with Little Audrey or Little Lulu.
I love to sing-a
this shit was trippy as fuck i honestly thought i was high back then
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amGbBFsiuzc
>>80867211
Probably Disney's Robin Hood because the whistle song was stuck in my brain long before it became a meme.
>>80867211
The Land Before Time

Donald in the lighthouse with a pelican or some shit. I was like 2.5 years old. Found it recently and rewatched.
>>80873588
What is this cartoon called? Holy shit i remember this bird.
>>80883811
Woody Woodpecker.
>>80883829
Thanks my afroamerican
>>80867211
If it's just watching a cartoon, my earliest memory is Alice and Wonderland while I was in the kids waiting room for the Doctor. I think I was getting something for my ear infection.
But as for watching something consistently, I remember a VHS that had a couple of Merrie Melodies in them.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZWQc070IsY
I distinctly remember Bugs Bunny's laugh, and that little dog's screaming.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3X9cD4QKaZU
I distinctly remember the music as the three pigs were building.
>>80867211
I think I had this cartoon on VHS. I have no idea if this show ever aired on television in America. The one episode I've always remembered for some reason is where this Snake gets bit by a mosquito or something and since he thinks its a vampire bite he starts dramatically acting like a vampire. It isn't until one of his friends points out he can't be a vampire because he still has a reflection.
>>80867211
One of those VHS tapes that had two to three hours of old Public Domain cartoons on it, so very likely either Popeye Meets Sinbad The Sailor or one of the Superman shorts
Other possible candidates include the Springfield Gorge episode of the Simpsons, and a VHS tape that had a TV recording of the Disney Alice In Wonderland
One thing that came of this is a lifelong love of old animation
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiZ0eBFTH6k

Mighty mouse in a department store
>>80867211
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZWQc070IsY
It's still fucking hilarious.
I think Mighty Mouse. It was a short movie that came with some other shorts.
If not that then Toy Story or some Bugs Bunny cartoon.
>>80867211
either dumbo, Who framed roger rabbit, Something Snoopy related but that might've been comics
Or some cartoon about John Henry featured in a big collection of other cartoons.
