Disney's CANCELLED Oswald the Lucky Rabbit Cartoon

[@arielruh7773]

of course they're too busy making those emotionless reboots

[@Savannah_Simpson]

Wouldn’t this also be kind of a reboot?

[@Mx_saltysweet]

@@Savannah_Simpsonyeah, I think the person meant reboot that don’t hit hard, and are usually bad, And a quick cash grab.

[@vanwallgt1]

We could have had this, we got The Acolyte instead

[@coca-colafox4723]

Pleaseee Disney do something with my boy Oswald, he's the reason why I got back into liking you guys again because he had so much of a backbone compared to Disney

[@Mack_n_cheese]

Bro I need more Oswald content thats like more than small cameos, like it baffles me that Disney traded a living human for this cartoon rabbit just to end up barely using him. (The disappointing head shake 😭🙏 12:21)

[@MirandaTheInkling34]

I seriously couldn't believe that Disney cancelled Oswald's TV series, they said they WOULD BRING HIM BACK, but i don't see a things about him nowadays.. Poor Oswald..

[@garygiles3464]

Disney needs the to make a series based on Floyd Gottfredson's Mickey Mouse comic. Those were polar opposite of the mascot Mickey. Oswald should have his own series. Disney have not used him much since he was purchased. I was looking forward to Oswald new series.

[@battybuddy]

I REALLY like the idea of Cliff. Watching the animatic I was like “Oswald’s best friend is a less lucky turtle? Thats ADORABLE!” hopefully if Oswald actually does come back, they keep Cliff.

[@Chocokaylarobin]

They should of gotten the people who did the Mickey mouse shorts lol those are great

[@reportinglivefromhell222]

The rebrushed looks rad

[@Pickity_Peck]

I really hope fans remake a darker epic mickey since both are not owned by Disney and in every loading screen just have it say in big red letters (NOT ASSOCIATED WITH THE DISNEY BRAND)

[@KarouLoves1D]

Really hope they bring my boy back!! Been loving him since epic Mickey when I was I kid and I’ve never even played it! Just heard his story and instantly loved his character!

[@Chocokaylarobin]

Why does Disney not want me to be happy.....

[@lunastar2302]

Oswald was used. Just in another game. He is in Disney Dreamlight Valley. He is a character you can get from the DLC!!! He's got his own personality and quest lines. I'm surprised you didn't talk about him. I think he came out a couple months ago.

[@lilbillix]

12:20 That "bye Mickey!" damn did Boy wrong its like when people mistake Luigi for Mario

[@vegetafan9922]

I've had this idea for a while that Oswald's personality should be a Mickey that let his global wide fame get to his head. The irony being that not a single person besides Ortensia (and maybe the Fab 5 if they want to have Oswald be a part of the Mickey and Friends™ brand) cares about him, which further drives his ego and his various schemes to gain the attention he craves that always lead to trouble.

[@WolfMasterIsHere]

Oswald Is the Best

[@yosefdemby8792]

Here's a character description of Ortensia from the defunct app that released Tales of Wasteland: "Ortensia is Oswald's one true love. Her dedication to Oswald is absolutely unstinting, but she's nobody's pushover. She's no-nonsense and direct, and will not hesitate to let anyone - most of all Oswald - know exactly what's on her mind. Whether she's busy fending off unwelcome advances from the notorious Pete or wishing that Oswald would spend more time with her and their copious children, Ortensia is - in every way - Oswald's better half. Now if she could just get him to stop obsessing about Mickey and thinking more about her!"' I love Epic Mickey's idea of Oswald being isolated from the world and jealously obsessing over Mickey to the point where he neglects his family-only to realize what he lost when it's too late. It's deep.

I Get It Sorta Like How The Moxy Show (1993-2000) Was Cartoon Network's first creation but the show that CN the Insentive to pursuit original programming was Space Ghost Coast To Coast BTW Happy 30th B-Day Space Ghost loved your show back then huge huge fan RIP C. Martin Crocker

[@sweetpea644]

The rabbit boy could've hit it big on Disney+, still holding out hope for him.

[@JaxCoolKartunes]

Oswald was still used by Universal until his current owner "Walter Lantz" death in 1994 where they just forgot about him but still used his other creations like Woody Woodpecker, Andy Panda and Chilly Willy.

[@Aberyyyy]

Disney says they want to do more with Oswald yet cancels production on the Show???

[@dillonohlemiller401]

Disney traded a human being for Oswald, and they BARELY do anything with him

[@LorenIpsum75]

You mean... 💰💰 "Disney Inc." 💰💰

[@springbonnidreamer87]

Honestly if they wanted to put Oswald in cartoons, then why not put him as a secondary character like Donald and Goofy. Hell if that scrapped Epic Mickey movie was going to get revived, then we could get some new Oswald cartoons similar to Bendy and the Ink Machine. Short cartoons then they can be used in the movie Would be great, but Disney is too busy making projects that flop hard

[@KeirraK.Daniels]

Why did they have it where Oswald is over confident?

[@joshuasfunworld7423]

Bye Mickey!

[@sketchframestudio]

suprised nothing new popped up after the massive disney leak last week that included a ton of bibles .

[@sketchframestudio]

also i have to wonder with the announcment of the revival of the epic mickey franchise if maybe the issue we're seeing is actaully more to do with a possible style change that could be more easily copyrighted. afterall thats kinda what the farewell mickey mouse short was for in a way. they redesigned steamboat willie in a loving omage and used him in the last mickey mouse mini short from that series . i think the copyrighted that variant. what id love to see though is disney take advantage of the public domain for once. after all they just spent a bunch of money a few years back for that massive crossover for Rescue Rangers , and there was a ton of other companies stuff in that. imagine for a second how much they could do if they pulled in othershows with this style of animation and were like "hey , this is public domain now , we wont bother you if you want to use him but you need let us help you out with the development of the episode. " cuz hed fit real snuggly into something like cuphead or even if you want to go so far talk to sega . theyre all for wacky weird projects and the style of that game was directly inspired by the idea of rubberhose animation. heck even within disney ip hed fit real snuggly if they kept the epic mickey lore and started reintroducing older abandoned shows into the mix. like you said he has a personality thats fully untapped. imagine how much better a concept like house of mouse would have been if he was like overseeing the community of wasteland taking care of the theatre space. it open so much more wackiness. expanding even further its not like disney doesnt do crossovers that are weird already for tv. do something real zany like make the series about him hopping between shows trying to find his way home . that be cool as heck. theres so many options. and i think the same is true of the other cast of the game. the briefly lived comics showed he was buddy with Doc and Horace . so even if they wanna do a buddy comedy vibe why not pull one of them in (probably not doc i think that might be too complicated a situation ) even something a bit more out of left field could work , id love to see some way to mash unlikely character matchups together. maybe not on some epic adventure but a Looney Toons Show vibe . hed fit in great with some sort of premise like that. where the world isnt absent of cartoon hyjix but the everyday is also more front and center . such a shame. i think about all the work that went into getting him back, the few attempts to use him (he has like 2 shorts. a Christmas short and Get A horse ) , the comics, the attempt to bring him to different parks and it breaks my heart. i would have loved for them to have tried to use him for the 100 year anniversary properly instead of the feature we got but thats beyond us now.

[@ManicMonster713]

I’m sorry I know I’m being annoying rn. But I have to say it. Steamboat Willy was not the first cartoon to use synchronized sound. Max fleischer was doing it long before hand

[@Wendy_O._Koopa]

Walt Disney retconned it to be the first cartoon with sound. "What tha-- retroactive continuity doesn't work in _real life!_ What are you talking about?!" I mean, have you ever heard the saying 'History is written by the winners'? That's pretty much IRL retconning.

[@JaxCoolKartunes]

Oswald isn't the first Disney character it's Julius the Cat and Pete!

[@ZombieRequin]

The first disney “character” answer can change depending on what you consider a character. Techically, Disney’s first cartoons were the animals on his farm he drew growing up, but no one would ever include them. Julius the Cat is hard to call a original character since he was clearly a rip-off of Felix. I know Pete technically predates Oswald but his character has transformed so much over the years that it’s hard to consider him the same character as the one everyone knows today. When I use “character” I’m referring to a main feature role for a cartoon. Oswald was a high-selling cartoon intellectual property that is the first to fit that description.

[@TrunksStar97-pt1wo]

⁠@@ZombieRequin When Julius was first created, he wasn’t a Felix rip-off and he had differences in his design. He had a white belly and white hands, something Felix didn’t have. He also lacked the whiskers that Felix had at the time and he was actually DRAWN by Walt Disney himself from what I heard. Also, it was Margaret Winkler- Walt’s distributor at the time, to tell him to change his design so he became a Felix rip-off. There’s images of the first design of Julius on the internet. He barley looked anything like Felix till Walt was allegedly told to change him. While you are right that Oswald was the first Disney character to be a solo star, him being “the first Disney character” is far from true. The first Disney characters are Julius and Alice from the Alice Comedies. Even though Alice was live action, I still consider her and Julius the first Disney characters. Not Oswald. If you want to be technical, you can’t even call Oswald a Disney character in those days. Rather, he was a Universal character. Walt Disney and Ub Iwerks created Oswald for the sole purpose of giving Universal a star! Yes, he is a Disney character now but in those days, he was always owned by Universal!

[@Dinguz-w10]

Oswald is disappointed by the child cuz the child said "bye mickey" and that made him sad tho why😢
