Popeye the Sailor filmography (Famous Studios)

Add article description

This is a list of the 122 cartoons of the Popeye the Sailor film series produced by Famous Studios (later known as Paramount Cartoon Studios) for Paramount Pictures from 1942 to 1957, with 14 in black-and-white and 108 in color.[1] These cartoons were produced after Paramount took ownership of Fleischer Studios, which originated the Popeye series in 1933.

All cartoons are one-reel in length (6 to 10 minutes). The first 14 shorts (You're a Sap, Mr. Jap through Cartoons Ain't Human) are in black-and-white. All remaining cartoons (beginning with Her Honor the Mare) are in color. Unlike the Fleischer Studios shorts, the director credits for these shorts represent the actual director in charge of that short's production. The first animator credited handled the animation direction. The numbers listed next to each cartoon continue the numbering of the Fleischer entries.

I do have one interview on video with Mae Questel where she states to Leonard Maltin that she was the replacement voice in "Shape Ahoy", and actually demonstrates her Popeye, and says the engineers then slowed her down mechanically.

    "Paramount Sales News #52". cartoonresearch.com. Retrieved June 22, 2021. "Shape Ahoy" is notable for being the cartoon where Mae Questel did Popeye's voice (Jack Mercer having enlisted and only being sporadically on tap). We know that Questel claimed to have supplied the voice on occasion, and that she did her Popeye for Leonard Maltin and he was impressed. Some have said that if her voice was ever used, it must have been slowed down, but that's unlikely in my opinion, and I see no reason why the voice heard in "Shape Ahoy", which is almost like a prolonged belch, couldn't have been done by a woman. So I vote Mae, for that title at least.
