That's because non-drinking always used to be reffered to being wimp and weak, that's why they created an extremely badass character who can fight bunch of pyrates and smell flower same time to promote non-drinking. Because really, when did you ever hear for alcoholic that is good fighter, or strong, or enything good? They barely walk, had headaches, shallow breathing from arythmia (to quick heartbeats), are depressed, totally can't say "no" to theri addiction, not to mention mental state similar to schizophrenia that is characterized by extremely paranoya, ultra-realistic nightmares and suicidal thoughts! Then you start to lose clue between reality and scary imagination and you feel like protagonist of horror movie - that's what alcoholism is like!

[@Chuchel-hh6hq]

Exactly , as a Russian i can confirm that there are a lot of memes in Russian internet about Livesey character description actually being a lot darker than it appears on the show .

[@thewiseoldfox]

To be honest, Livesly gives me a lot of bad vibes, even if throughout the movie he's a swell guy

[@ScrewBallTheAlien]

Fr there’s something unnerving about his whole demeanor.

[@thewiseoldfox]

@@ScrewBallTheAlien I mean, considering he takes every serious thing as a laughing matter with a giant grin on his face... unnerving is a mild description imo

[@1puk3g1itter]

The voice acting is literally so good

[@robertmiles1603]

something i notice is that he always walks by putting one foot directly ahead of the other in its path and moves the other around in turn to proceed. an unconscious reflex to hone balance and muscle control in light of his tremendous upper body development, which he never seems to suffer from incorrect balance of. i havent seen this entire movie but i notice that hes never unhappy or in any need to run or rush, moving only at his own pace. perfectly in control of his environment and at peace and ease with his surroundings and the world, accepting life as it is and then making what of it he can as he goes along regardless of whether it goes according to plan. no effort is involved. this is the man, the ideal, we all wish we could be but never can because trying is failing

[@krazykoala8081]

I love this so much! I can't help but laugh just from the Doctor Livesey being a huge chad him picking up the drunk Captain like a rag doll with two fingers!! Against all odds managing to keep a random skull in his small pocket AND a bottle of rum just to taunt the alcoholic Captain, smiling as he tells him he's going to die. And somehow appearing at the door on command, (Jim calls for a Doctor, but then Livesey introduces himself and they've never met?!?!?) P.S. How did Livesey know Jim's name at the end and the final laugh MY GOD that final laugh hahaha

In the shot at 0:38 he's holding a pair of glasses, but he never actually wears any. I think this means that he brings a pair of glasses around just so he can do that

[@blaisen.3239]

Honestly Dr Livesy is a very clever character idea.He basically emphasizes the danger of excessive drinking and instructs children to avoid it

[@snarkboojum9949]

If you saw the whole cartoon it contains the live action musical numbers which all about the benefits of sports and the dangers of drinking and smoking. Now we can only assume that originally this music scenes was supposed to be animated but small budget and time constriction prevented it(The other two cartoons of the same director are fully animated). We can deduce thus because the first song is animated and performed by characters from the cartoon. It is a song that teaches us that love for money is not a good thing (oh that soviets) - about boy Billy(that means captain William Bonce) who loved money but forget that so many others people love it too

[@roycouch802]

the art of him in the description of him is terrifying, I love it

[@SandwichGoat]

Whoever decided to bring them back as a meme just unlocked my childhood memory I remember those characters and I just LOVED them so much as a kid when I used to watch TV it was so funny the way they spoke the way it was animated it just filled my heart with warm hapiness and now that it came back as a meme all around the world it makes me even happier

What I really like about the voice acting for Livesey is you can tell he’s smiling while speaking. In fact, you can almost hear that he’s reading the lines through his teeth in order to make it sound like the Doctor’s expressions.

A few years later me and my buds still make subtle references to this cartoon, specially when one of us are drunk. I guess laughter really is the best medicine.

I'm a native speaker of russian language and I really love the play of Livsey's voice actor. I don't envy people, who can't feel the beauty of oringinal language, because it's really amazing. In comparison with subtitles, I can say, that true russian speaking Livsey way more cooler and complicated character, that english Livsey. Very bad for english speakers, that they can't fully understand the real Livsey's personality. Livsey's voice actor done a great job, but the main job was done by a russian language and its versatility No disrespect for english language, and english speakers. Love you all
