Comments
-
From Jerry Edwards : One of the Donald/Nephews
shorts that I very strongly dislike. I find nothing funny or pleasing about
this short.
-
From Ryan : This short wasn't too bad,
but I wouldn't call it one of my favorites either. Although the "grasshopper
in the golf ball" gag is funny at first, it does get to be tiring after awhile
and you can't help but feel empathy for Donald's frustration.
-
From Baruch Weiss : The only part I find
funny about this short was when grass got in Donald's mouth and it looked
like he was an old duck.
-
From Bo Engwall : Although I,like many others,
prefer the wonderful Mickey/Goofy/Donald shorts from about 1937-1938, it
is interesting to see how my favorite comic book artist Carl Barks reused
many of the themes from the early Donald Duck cartoons he worked on, in his
more famous comic book 10-pagers of Donald Duck for WDC&S. Obviously
Carl Barks would come better off in the latter case, using his skills of
both art work and storytelling.
