Cartoons in Mexico

Well, there was "Pedro And Lorenzo," a long forgotten short about a boy and calf who are separated when young, but reunited in the bull ring as adults. I was never able to see the humor in it. Then there's "Bull Fright," a Casper cartoon in which he and Pancho the calf team up to save Pancho's papa from a matador. Plus. if you check out the Hanna-Barbera forum, you'll find a thread about HB cartoons set in Mexico.

There is also, The Book of Life.

Depatie-Freleng had a series called Tijuana Toads--basically two toads/frogs from Mexico. Due to racial stereotyping--when first broadcast on tv, the characters' names, voices and even the background music was changed and they became the Texas Toads. The undubbed version is so much funnier if you ask me.

There are two Warner Bros shorts "Two Crows from Tacos" and "Crows Feat" which feature two crows named Manuel and Jose--these two crows were the inspiration for the Tijuana Toads.
There is a Daffy Duck short called "Mexican Joyride" in which he takes a trip to Mexico and ends up fighting a bull. I actually finally saw this short on the internet when in college as I actually never saw this one on tv--except for a small clip from it on the short lived Daffy Duck Show on Kids WB.

The last Looney Tunes Short "Senorella and the Glass Hurache" is a Mexican take on Cinderella.

Happily Ever After's Fairy Tales for Every Child had some fairy tales told with a Mexican flavor to them such as Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Robinita Hood, and Hansel and Gretel.

There is also this lovely little short called "Dios de Los Muertos"

Animator Manuel (Manny) Moreno, who became the backbone of Lantz's studio in the 30s, finally leaving to work at MGM, started his own studio in Mexico in 1943. Sadly he only completed one short, featuring his character Pelon, before his backers got cold feet and - er - backed out.

So I nominate that short - Me Voy De Cacería.
