Default The Cartoon

I wonder if it has any significance?
When Shannon babysit she was saying something about the kids watching a cartoon over and over again aswell..

The Cartoon Scene:
A scene from A Corny Concerto, a 1943 Warner Brothers Looney Tune that was meant to be a send-up of Disney's Fantasia, as it was composed of two satirical symphony pieces. I love this short - a classic WB 'toon - but what I find interesting is the content of the sequence shown.

The cartoon's second segment is set to the strains of the "Blue Danube," and centers around a duckling -- who bears a striking resemblance to a young Daffy -- who attempts to join a family of swans, but is continually rebuffed by the swan mother. Much of the waltz is actually sung by the swans; when the young duck joins in, his loud, off-key quacks give him away. However, when a vulture steals the young swans, it's up to the ugly duckling to come to the rescue.

Thoughts?
