Sloucho Barx (aka Tim Arnold) did this show featuring public domain cartoons and shorts back in the eighties on East Lansing MI Public Access. They still show these every Friday Night on Public Access in Fort Wayne IN. A full show runs six hours. This upload runs about 39 minutes and features Roger Ramjet, a Doral commercial, Freddie the Freshman, Mickey Mouse in "The Mad Doctor", an Almond Joy commercial, Woody Woodpecker in "The Loose Nut" & Daffy Duck in "Stupor Duck".

Singers Lucille and Johnny, whose radio show is sponsored by Oldsmobile, are invited to visit the Olds factory to see why the product is superior. While touring the plant, Johnny becomes concerned that another visitor is a Martian spy dedicated to subverting Earth's autonomy. Some might call this film a McCarthyite allegory; others a slow-moving plant tour. Story: Gordon Miller. Camera: John Niklasch. Sound: Ray Esh. Editor: John Cook. Director: Lewis D. Collins. With Lucille and Johnny (Themselves); Barry Hopkins (Mr. Clark); Arnold Coty (Mr. Martin).

(Public domain cartoon) Was amazed when I watched this 1941 Superman cartoon ("The Mechanical Monsters") and recognized that "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" (2004) copied the opening robot attack almost shot for shot. Same angles, same flying robot design, and even the way they swing their arms while walking.
