Popeye the Sailor Meets Ali Baba's Forty Thieves

In this cartoon from 1937, we get to see Popeye battle some A-rabs!


Listen carefully to Popeye's asides, they're much funnier than the dialogue between the characters.
This film also contains some interesting animation technique developed by the Fleischers.They were on the cutting edge of innovation along with their rival studio Disney.
