Popeye the Sailor - Popeye Makes a Movie (1950)

Famous Studios Popeye the Sailor cartoon. This cartoon consists mostly of recycled footage from the Fleischer two-reeler "Popeye the Sailor Meets Ali Baba's Forty Thieves". The new wraparound segments consist of Popeye's nephews watching their uncle on a movie set during the process of filming the infamous Fleischer classic. Unlike the previous effort, "Popeye's Premiere", this one does not fare as well, mostly because the attempt to go back to the Fleischer style of improvised dialogue was not very well executed.
'Popeye' The Movie Music Video
A rmusic montage of the 1980 film 'Popeye', directed by the late Robert Altman and starring Shelley Duvall and Robin Williams in his film debut. www.HaphazardStuff.com I used to watch this movie all the time when I was little. Even though the film has gotten harsh criticism (supposedly even Williams regrets it) after seeing it again recently I thought it still had a goofy charm. I had always hoped Altman would have done some kind of DVD commentary for this film, but unfortunately that never happened. I haven't read too much from the principals regarding this film. I'm sure there are some memorable stories and interesting anecdotes behind the making of it. (Has Dennis Franz ever talked about his recollections of being cast as one of the 'Palookas'?) I had heard the main parts were originally intended for Dustin Hoffman and Gilda Radner. Someone recently told me the Sweethaven town set is still standing in Malta and has become a tourist attraction. The theme song is performed by Face To Face.

The popular sailor man makes the leap to a live action film! haphazardstuff.com A joint production between Paramount and Disney, 1980's 'Popeye' would bring to life EC Segar's famous comic strip characters with Robert Altman steering things along'. The big-budget musical/comedy would star Shelley Duvall, Paul Dooley, Ray Walston and that popular television star Robin Williams. Would it live up to the high expectations of being the blockbuster everyone thought it would be? Glossing over the debate whether Popeye should be categorized as a superhero or not, I decide to unravel the mystery and confusion regarding this bizarre, notorious film. *Special thanks to the talented Julian for his kick ass version of the Popeye theme (The Sailor's Hornpipe) used during the opening montage. Be sure to check out his stuff! You'll be glad you did! www.youtube.com Warning: Spoilers Ahead! Even though the film is over thirty years old I thought I would mention it just in case. As usual this project turned out to be much longer and involved than I initially planned. Normally there would have been some major cuts made, but with YouTube now allowing me unlimited time limits I thought -- I would take my time, not worry about the length and see how it goes.
Popeye(1980) Movie Review
My review of Popeye(1980) starring Robin Williams, Shelley Duvall, Ray Walston, Paul Dooley, Paul L. Smith, Richard Libertini, Donald Moffat, and MacIntyre Dixon. Directed by Robert Altman. Trivia The set for the town of Sweet Haven was built at Anchor Bay on the Mediterranean island of Malta. After filming, it became a popular tourist attraction. The makeup appliances for Robin Williams' fake forearms were not ready when filming began, so in early shots, Popeye wears a long-sleeved raincoat to hide his normal-sized arms. Many of the citizens of Sweet Haven, especially those who had to do some physical gags, were recruited from European circuses. The parts of Popeye and Olive Oyl were originally intended for Dustin Hoffman and Gilda Radner. Hoffman left over a disagreement in the hiring of Jules Feiffer as the scriptwriter and, although Radner was the preferred choice of the studio, Robert Altman held out for Shelley Duvall. While it may seem odd to most viewers that the movie's portrayal of Popeye does not like spinach, this was also a theme used in the original comic strip by EC Segar. Popeye originally boosted his strength by rubbing the hairs on the head of a Whiffle Hen when he first began appearing in Segar's "Thimble Theatre" in 1929. The consumption of spinach to explain Popeye's strength was introduced in the early 1930s, and was only infrequently referenced until it became a staple of the animated shorts produced by Fleischer Studios and Paramount Pictures <b>...</b>

( video 2009, Malta ). Popeye Village, also known as Sweethaven Village, is a group of rustic and ramshackle wooden buildings located at Anchor Bay in the north-west corner of the Mediterranean island of Malta, two miles from the village of Mellieħa. The construction of the film set started in June 1979. A construction crew of 165 working over seven months was needed to build the village, which consists of nineteen authentic wooden buildings. Hundreds of logs and several thousand wooden planks were imported from Holland, while wood shingles used in the construction of the roof tops were imported from Canada. Eight tons of nails and two thousand gallons of paint were also used in construction. In addition, a 200-250 foot breakwater was built around Anchor Bay's mouth to protect the set from high seas during the shooting. The set was completed in seven months, and filming commenced on January 23, 1980. The film, based on the comic strips by EC Segar, is set around the fictional village of Sweethaven where the sailor Popeye arrives in an attempt to find his long lost father. Although the film was initially perceived to be a failure, Popeye Village remains a popular tourist attraction. It was built as a film set for the production of the 1980 live-action musical feature film Popeye, produced by Paramount Pictures and Walt Disney Productions, and starring Robin Williams. Today it is open to the public as an open-air museum and family entertainment complex.

This video I did for class was supposed to be around a minute to 2 minutes long, so I tried seeing if I could make a somewhat coherent storyline. Turns out I couldn't but here it my attempt nonetheless. Also, the strange picture you see in the middle as a transition was due to the requirement that we have two pictures in the project.

Marketed with the tagline, "The sailor man with the spinach can!", the film is a musical. It starred Robin Williams (in his first starring film role) as Popeye and Shelley Duvall as Olive Oyl. Popeye features hallmarks of director Robert Altman's style, including an ensemble cast, overlapping dialogue and cross-cutting to non-musical sequences during songs by Harry Nilsson.
This is the first film co-produced between Disney and Paramount Pictures.
Plot
The film begins with an animated cartoon slide of Popeye on his ship with the words "MAX FLEISCHER presents" at the top; the cartoon is "Blow Me Down" (1933). When the doors open, he is quick to say, "Hey! What is this, one of Bluto's tricks?! I'm in the wrong movie!"One night, Popeye (Robin Williams) rows his dinghy into the harbor of the Sweethaven. When he arrives there everyone seems to fear him. He rents a room at the Oyls' boarding house, where he falls for their daughter, Olive (Shelley Duvall). Olive's hand has been promised to Captain Bluto (Paul L. Smith), a bully and ruffian who is in charge of collecting taxes for the mysterious Commodore. Popeye and Bluto are quick to dislike each other and fight.
Popeye, who was orphaned at an early age, is searching for his missing father. Along the way he encounters George W. Geezil (Richard Libertini), J. Wellington Wimpy (Paul Dooley), "Oxblood Oxheart" (Peter Bray), and a greedy, unnamed taxman (Donald Moffat). Popeye and Olive are brought together when they find Swee'Pea (Wesley Ivan Hurt), a foundling. Swee'Pea can predict the future, whistling when he hears the right answer to a question.
Popeye allows Wimpy to take Swee'Pea on a walk, but Wimpy takes him to the horse race. Wimpy uses Swee'Pea's power to find out which horse will win. Popeye and Olive Oyl are mad at Wimpy. Popeye then throws the tax collector into the sea, making the entire town happy. While the town is celebrating Popeye's victory, Wimpy steals Swee'Pea and gives him to Bluto. Popeye hurries to find Swee'Pea, but it is too late.
When Swee'Pea is kidnapped, Popeye and Olive Oyl go looking for him. Olive and Wimpy learn that Swee'Pea was taken on the Commodore's ship, and it turns out that the Commodore is Popeye's father, Poopdeck Pappy (Ray Walston). Bluto has tied up Pappy, and is going to use Swee'Pea to find Pappy's treasure. When Olive and Wimpy tell Popeye what they have discovered, Popeye thinks it is a joke and goes to the Commodore's ship to prove them wrong. He finds the Commodore and sees the family resemblance. He learns from his father the secret to gaining great strength by eating spinach, but states his dislike of it, infuriating Pappy.
Bluto kidnaps Swee'Pea and Olive Oyl, then sails to an island on which the Commodore has said his treasure is located. He tries using Swee'Pea's predictive ability to locate the treasure. Popeye, Pappy, Wimpy and their friends chase Bluto to Pirate's Cove. Using a cannon, Pappy tries to sink Bluto's ship, but, in the end, has to ram it. Olive is trapped in a tube that is tossed in the water, and Pappy manages to get up on the cove with Swee'Pea and Popeye's friends.
Bluto and Popeye get into a sword fight. Bluto, being bigger and stronger, knocks Popeye into the water. A giant octopus tries to eat Olive. Pappy calls to Popeye and tells him that if he ate spinach he would not be losing. Bluto attempts to add insult to injury by forcing Popeye to eat a can of spinach, then wrapping him in chains and dropping him into the water. Popeye, now with extraordinary strength, shoots up from the water and defeats Bluto with a mighty punch. He then rescues Olive using a "Twisker Punch", sending the octopus flying into the air. Now beaten, Bluto turns yellow (literally) and swims out to sea, never to be heard from again.
Pappy finds his treasure, containing items from Popeye's infancy, including a picture of "Me Son". The characters sing "Popeye The Sailor Man", while Popeye dances and falls back in the water, only to pop back up smiling. The credits then play through a scene of the cove showing Bluto still swimming out to sea.
