Three Little Pigs

Wolf: "I'll huff and I'll puff and I'll blow your house in!"

"Who's afraid of the big bad wolf?" tune, a classic.

As simplistic and problematic as it may be, "The Three Little Pigs" was hailed by many for its characterization of the eponymous characters and for the picture's being a source of optimism for the Depression-era American people in large part due to the classically catchy tune, "Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?".

Straightforward telling built around a very catchy tune. Voice work is poor or at least poorly recorded, typical of animation of this era. There's something faintly unpleasant, certainly un-cute, about the character designs and color palette. The animation technique to modern eyes is too-smooth and a little robotic, but some moments, especially the wolf blowing the houses away, are great. There is brief use of anti-Semitic imagery; always depressing yet fascinating where these tropes crop up.

Anyone else thing the "big bad wolf" song is terrifying? if i ever make a horror film i'm putting that song in there.

Enjoyable disney short.

I get the whole "Who's Afraid Of The Big Bad Wolf" thing as a metaphor for the Great Depression, but like a lot of other Disney shorts, it's made out to be much better than it actually is - mostly by Disney themselves.

The story became better known thanks to this version made by Disney in animation.

Same old thing, done the same old way

It's a classic, just not a very good one. It's pretty bad, really.. The pigs' singing voices are absolutely horrible.
