Comments
-
In this short, the last of Donald's "bee" cartoons, we finally are given
some insight into the circumstances that began the animosity between Donald
and Spike, and a delightful sort of catharsis is allowed between the two
ex-rivals.
- From Dino Cencia : I'm glad that Donald and Spike the Bee are good friends in this cartoon. Other cartoons with Donald and the bee sometimes fight but then they made up back again. They will never forget the time that they will always be friends. Also, in this cartoon, when Spike the Bee was playing the wallpaper strings for his sweetheart, I heard the song from "Soup's On" when Donald was playing that song when he was an angel up in the sky. That music is really lovely. And I hope that this year for 2008 for the next Walt Disney Treasures, I hope that the Disney company will make The Chronglogical Donald Volume 4 from the year 1951 through the end of Donald's last cartoon "Donald's Fire Survival Plan." I hope. So anyway, great cartoon of Donald and his nemeiss, Spike the Bee. I give it a 949 out of 949.
I have seen "Let's Stick Together" and would like to
