Popeye Transforms To An "Educated" Ignoramus
ccthemovieman-129 June 2007
Professor Brutus? Only in these cartoons could a thug like be Brutus be a college "prof." Then again, seeing some of the those real-life college wackos on television in recent years, maybe......

Anyway, Brutus is bound-and-determined to break up Popeye and Olive Oyl. It irks him no end that those two are romantically linked when he has eyes for Olive, too. Of course, Popeye can never feel secure with a fickle woman like Olive, who can fall for Brutus at a moment's notice. In this episode, the moment she sees him, it's, "Ohhh, there's Brutus." Popeye and Brutus both hate each other, all over this skinny dumb-ass woman.

There are some funny lines as the "prof" pours on the sweetness to his gullible student Olive and Popeye has to hear it. Olive makes it worse when sticks her nose in the air and says "I could never marry an uneducated ignoramus." Why Popeye doesn't dump this dork has always amazed me. Instead, the sailor man decides to get educated....and you know who is going to teach him.....and try to physically annihilate and humiliate "Freshman Popeye" at the same time! By the way, there are only two people in the Prof's classes: Olive and Popeye. Where are the rest of the students?

How Popeye handles the situation is the remainder of the story. This is part of disc 3 in the Popeye's 75th Anniversary Celebration Collector's Edition DVD

Due to energy limitations . . .

. . . nitrogen and oxygen do not react to each other at ambient air temperatures. However, during the combustion cycle of internal explosion engines, the extreme heat welds them together to form the noxious gas spelled out on the sign in this picture's first shot: "THE COLLEGE OF HARD N. O. X." During the past 150 years, trillions of truck, automobile, lawnmower, go-cart, dune buggy, motorcycle, snow blower, chain saw, snowmobile, Zamboni, jet, tank, locomotive, sea plane, submarine, barge, golf cart, leaf blower, moped, scow, ATV, yacht, mobile home, bulldozer, earth mover, crane, motor boat, funny car, rental vehicle, bus, chairlift, ambulance, half-track, helicopter, Zodiac, blimp, cigarette boat, tug, stock car, speed boat, delivery van, street sweeper, meter maid, postal service, Jeep, stretch limousine, Bat-Mobile and jitney engines have spewed Hard N. O. X. Into our air, causing global warming and untold deaths. This COLLEGE needs to be more informed about its subject matter.
