Little Boy Blue (I) (1936)
1/10
Cheap knockoff of Disney short.
9 October 2004
This one was released a couple of years after the classic Disney short entitled "The Big Bad Wolf". I saw this short under the same exact title on a DVD compilation of cartoons.

Instead of chasing the Three Little Pigs, this wolf is terrorizing the sheep of Little Bo Peep. Her sole black sheep does an exaggerated dance routine and then dons a wolf mask to scare the white sheep. Unbeknownst to him, a real wolf has been carefully watching and decides to pull a prank of his own.

The wolf is able to grab one of the sheep and carries it away. Once inside his domicile, the wolf grabs a multitude of knives and begins to sharpen one of them. It's up to a singing and dancing scarecrow(!) to race inside and try to save the helpless woolen creature. There isn't an impressive moment in this one and I would stick to watching the superior short which this was likely inspired by.
