- From the Cinemassacre archives, here's an older video where James Rolfe and Mike Matei watch 16mm cartoons! I thought it would be appropriate with the announcement of the new Looney Tunes show coming to HBO soon.

I miss these old Cinemaassacre rando videos. It just feels like we're hanging out with the guys.
Exactly. Now there are slobs.
They are?
Nostalgia was huge in this one. These were the good ol days of cinemassacre. 👍
They are both stoned.
CinemASSacre
He's the happy 16mm nerd
Oh, yeah, he's the angry video game nerd, but the happy film nerd.
Ah yes 1cm is more than enough,anyone agree?
You made it sound like he's 16mm tall😂
Is that head to base or head to foot? 🤭
The old quality, the dim lighting, the amateur filming. There's a lot of charm in these old vids.
Yeah
Prob the same kind of charm James and Mike get from watching stuff on film.
Yeah, it was when James was passionate about his content.
You feel very comfortable watching them. Like you're there.
The good old days, before Screenwave and 5:40.
Talk about "gonna bring you back to the past"
Except, these cartoons don't suck ass.
yea
"Gonna TAKE you back to the past"
To watch shitty toons that suck ass
@@DaRealKing303 gonna takeyouback tttotHHHHE past...god people are getting scary
Sometimes I envy James' house. He has a game room with thousands of games, and a video store in his house with thousands of movies.
Same but it must fucking suck to move all those things to a new house
I can imagine he doesn't move much because of it lol
@vehtty I don't know money can definitely make you happy
@vehtty money doesn't necessarily buy happiness, true. Money does however remove a lot of things that can cause unhappiness
@@TheNaturalGamer1 you must not have much because if you did you would know that's not true.. "mo money, mo problems" lol... It can help though but it can also make things worse.
These cartoons are timeless 100%. I am a 90's kid and we had boomerang on tv I caught alot of these cartoons growing up.
I remember the projector from elementary school
'90s.
protoman111 same I was born in 98. You would be surprised to see most of the stuff on Boomerang now is newer cartoons that have been cancelled like Regular Show and Adventure Time. I’m not even sure if they play the classics anymore.
@@durhamrockerzarchive7034 Not exactly surprised. The last time I had Cable (this was 5 years ago to be fair), I was seeing things like Chowder which wasn't that old at the time; definitely wouldn't consider that "classic" by any means (at least at the time).
protoman111 yeah I remember that too.
The funny thing is this video was recorded in 2009... I was a freshman in high school and can still recall Cartoon Network showing classic Looney Tunes cartoons for an hour or two in the morning during the summer.
I love the pride with which James shows off his 16mm films. He has the vibe of a boy showing off his new toys to his friends. It's adorable.
“Most people watch movies on DVD”
Jesus, 11 years later and I still do, cuz screw Netflix
Yeah, fuck streaming eh.
I also like to watch movies on DVD or VHS
@@minilopkastudios4711 based
The thing about these clunkier formats is that it makes the watching of a movie or listening to a record more of an event, you are less likely to be distracted when you put some effort into it as well.
I missed the video so much. This is why I love James and Mike Mondays. Even when you guys go through your collections or even a DVD menu lol. It feels like You're hanging out with your mates and just chillin. I feel like I can grab a beer and just relax with you guys. Such a good friendship and such genuine people. Never change.
It changed.
RIP James and Mike Mondays and hello screenwave slobs and Bimmy
why the fuck does 2009 look so old and wonderful
time is PASSING
Nothing but good memories
I remember seeing this in small parts on the cinemassacre site
Yeah I cut the three parts together.
Mike Matei don’t you mean spliced?
@@brianschwartz1372 ha, sure
@@mikematei Jesus! That's some cinemassacre right there
They looks younger
I don't care what anyone says, this is what Saturday morning is all about. It's so sad that there is no network that does this anymore. At least there are other mediums to watch these classics on rather than cable.
That's the redeeming quality of this era.. shows that are actually good and not determined and funded by ratings and trends. I always wonder why Nickelodeon doesn't have that honest feature to it anymore.. until it hit me those people no longer walk those halls.. and the content creators were cool hippies grown up into their 30 trying to entertain us. People like James and others hold up that pure honest era.. but direct to us without some Network determining what's good for the stock market. I love it.. and then you can go watch those films they discuss within a few clicks
Small world hey?
But yeah, I agree with you a hundred percent. Back when I was a kid, I used to love Saturday Morning cartoon blocks while they lasted. Unfortunately, they weren't very common on basic cable where I live, but by the we downgraded to that from satellite they were being either replaced with new line ups or removed altogether. Like when Fox Kids was replaced by the Fox Box, I didn't like it whatsoever. And when Warner Bros ended up stopping theirs altogether, I basically lost interest since those where I could see all my favorite cartoons.
I've been meaning to track down the shows that I've enjoyed to relive those times again.
"Its a Reel Deal" 😂
Back when cinemassacre was an entertainment platform! I love this shit
"That's some Cinemassacre right there"
mike’s need to not emulate and play on original hardware extends to media as well
cant blame him, theres something special about playing any media on the original intended hardware.
@@tehkill3r yep, psychologically....
To each his own I guess...I still prefer to play SNES games on my Wii U/PC than having to deal with cartidges, consoles with old outputs and worn-out controllers.
@@jirojairo90 or the risk of losing time due to lost or corrupted saves. Around the ps1 era it wasn't uncommon for files on cards to be unusable or for the batteries holding your save file to go out, oh well.
Watching in 2020: "Whoa, they were in the same room together!"
Ahhh... Those were the days.
Welcome to the side effects of marriage.
Bro this quarantine got us all thinking twice lolol
watching in 2021: "woah, they're together!"
That isn't Steam, it's Smoke! Smoke from the Smoked Hams we're having!
mmm, Smoked Hams!
WOW the quarantine made you come back young...😁
That's what happens when you stay out of the sun for a month
@@DiamondGB its an old video
@@ourevilone No I'm pretty sure if you stay indoors for a month you go back in time. I'm pretty sure you could live to 10,000 years old easily.
are you new to cinemassacre? this has been on their website for a decade..
Wubber Wrestlers you can tell by the video quality this video had to be recorded in 2020 or 2021 at the earliest.
My grandma had a film projector with old films of my family
I love how your name is a mixture of mick gordon and chad mossholder. You know? DOOM 2016 And DOOM Eternal.
I bet she's got some dirty films somewhere.
So?
Thats wholesome
For those guessing: they talk about the AVGN Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle episode so this video isn't older than 2009
I have original 3 parts videos files dated 09 Nov 2009.
@@Derfas13 you're right. The crazy castle episode you can find on UA-cam was posted in 2011 but it's actually from 2009. I knew something was off, thanks
my guess is 2010 10 years old
16 mm, when exposed properly and projected properly, looks great. It can reach at least 2k equivalent resolution (Not a 1 to 1 comparison) and it often has a higher dynamic range. Digital cameras are recently catching up to having a similar dynamic range and only in the higher end cameras. (Basically the film is able to capture a wider range of light values). Then there is the grain vs digital noise comparison. Sure grain looks more pleasant to a lot of people because it feels more ‘authentic’ but it also doesn’t stay in one place relative to the screen like digital noise does. These features are impossible to see through a youtube video, and it helps to have well shot/printed/stored film. I recommend that if anyone gets the chance to see real film projection to check it out.
Why must time go by? We should all be forever young!
I miss cartoon network from the 90s. I am glad I got to see many of those classic cartoons.
I remember when this was new.
I wish adult cartoons today are more like cartoons from the 40s. No explicit sexual content, no exaggerated gore and stuffs, just subtle jokes that kids would appreciate but adults will appreciate more.
Im 35 and I loooove looney tunes and Popeye. I grew up watching them with my grandpa. He watched looney tunes and the original Scooby Doo cartoons til the day he died. That's going to happen to me too. Ill watch looney tunes til the day I die
Funny enough when they were saying that nobody is watching it, i was watching it as a kid on boomerang
Fun fact, the flickering on the screen is where we get the term "flick" from when referring to movies
These cartoons are timeless. People will always relate and find them funny.
"i watched this sometime in the 80s, so maybe around 20 years ago"
dawg this shit bouta be 20 years old wtf
I could watch these two for an entire 2 hours talking about just cartoons
There should be a lot more comments acknowledging James has an original film print of Frankenstein Meets the Wolf-Man.
I was a kid in the mid 2000's and in Canada they usually had The Bugs Bunny & Tweety Show on weekday evenings. I fell in love with those cartoons and always looked forward to them.
must be a great way to watch night of the living dead
Mind Puke Definitely! If I owned a projector like this, that’d probably be the first film I’d want.
Imagine watching Star Wars 1977 like this.
@@TooFurious4 16mm prints of star wars are out there. Sounds like a good time to me!
thank you for posting these old videos!
No problem. I like being able to post old content from our website from time to time when I decide to. Thanks for watching! 🐰🥕
You know the video is old when he said most people watch DVDs. Haha.
If this was a current video they would say streaming
I figured the 4:3 aspect ratio was a dead giveaway.
Not to mention James was wearing his Rolling Rock on his face..same reason I shouldn't drink. How I envy my 40oz. casualty homies and their inabilty to ever gain a pound.
neoasura Or the literal year being put in the title...
I used to watch Boomerang all the time early 2000.
Now it's new age cartoons not these good ones
A family story I hold close is whenever I hear about me, as an infant who didnt really understand language, and my Great-Grandfather, who only spoke Korean, would watch Tom and Jarry and laugh and bond because we could watch them and not have to worry about a language barrier.
Yes! Been waiting for a re-upload of this! I love this video. So interesting. Would love to see a follow-up!
Cant picture him doing anythjng like this with the fatties. Now thst Mikes gone I cant imagine the content James would put out
Then don’t watch it? The AVGN was never this masterpiece you weirdos prop it as.
@@queencancerous5332 That's going a bit far. I don't really care about James having lost his passion and putting out garbage now, but the old content has a very special place in many people's hearts, myself included. People might be a bit delusional, but you surely must understand where they're coming from at least. They're just reminiscent of the past, very much in spirit with the show itself.
I remember watching this back in the day on cinemassacre , i was jealous then and still jealous now. My uncle had one of these and he would play it on birthday parties. Left a big impression. It was probably what made me become a cartoonist.
Growing up we had this ancient theatre from the 40s that was awesome. It was just one massive screen and in my entire life I never saw the seating filled, only the center seats were ever available with the sides(2/3s of the theatre) taped off. That's how big it was. Another cool feature was the concession area was just behind the seating so you could get up and fuck about in line getting snacks while still watching the film, sort of like at the drive-in but with sound. One big open concept movie theatre that was impossible to get lost in. They would even periodically flash little reminders to hit the snack bar on the screen during the film. Tickets were cheap too!
Anyways, they used to always play cartoons before and after every matinee so when you were a kid it was the thing to arrive an hour early with your friends so you could screw around watching Daffy and Goofy, running amok in the world's largest living room and getting spun on soda and candy before settling down for the main event. Afterwards, the parents took their time socializing before wrangling us monsters into the car. You made a whole day of it! Such a special experience 😊!
Ah, time to watch this video that's recommended by UA-cam. Time to relive memories of watching this old vid- *Checks date*
Reviathan same 🙌
Literally just did that. Was confused for a moment.
I would love to see "It Came From the Toilet".
Wow. This is a true TCT! True Cinemassacre Treasure.
I imagine James and Mike have a lot of cool, old movies and shows on defunct formats that never made it to UA-cam. More content like this, please!
Back in January, I just got another Kodak Pageant 16mm sound projector and guess what, the speaker is included, and the amp is now working since I did checked. I did installed a film guide, because the original was missing, so I pulled out the busted projector and put it in, thread the film and it runs, turn on the amp, and it now has sound. Now My Kodak Pageant AV-126-TR is now working. Time to watch some cartoons.
In the 70s, I saw a lot of these old cartoons on weekdays after school. Saturday morning was the time for new cartoons, after school was the time for the vintage classics.
These are even more timeless than you guys think, I’m 22 and I grew up watching these same cartoons on TV in the early 2000s.
I was LITERALLY looking for this video YESTERDAY!!! Thank you !!
They are both stoned.
This seems like a throwback ep or they are high or just woke up I like this vid !
They look so young and this looks so oldschool.
Wow, just seeing an old projector, it reminds me of the time that I worked as a projectionist for a movie theatre before we went digital. It was really fun building up movies, actually holding the movies in your hands was a great feeling. Just seeing that reel brought back lots of memories.
Haha, nice, it feels like i've stumbled upon their house accidentally and they invited me in, and now they can't stop showing off their reel collection.
I'll just smile politely and say: "wooow" every now and then.
It's amazing to see these guy's humble beginnings. even 11 years later, they're still making videos just like this.
So glad these vids came back in some form. It's nice seeing James and Mike just show their collection and it's clear that they enjoy the collecting. I think it's a feeling that most of can relate to. Just sharing what they love to others.
Just think: In the days before television, home video, and especially the Internet, the only way to watch films outside of the theater was if you did what James and Mike are doing in this video and actually bought a film print and watched it from a film projector in your place of residence.
This video is just sooo good and amazingly interesting!! MORE James & Mike - not playing games, but watching cartoons together!
1979 Two time travelers discuss future video formats *in color
Now all of the old Disney cartoons that were show in theaters are stream-able on Disney+. My kids watch them all of the time, on repeat.
Well not ALL of them but a lot of them.
Man I have always loved this video....you and Mike should do more stuff like this ! My favorite Cinemassacre videos are the ones with You and Mike!
"Ñeeeeee, what's up doc?"
"What's up, COCK?!"
WHATS UP DUMP?
Whats up ,Nerd?
*NYYEEEEEEEEEEEEHWHATCHUPPCOCK?*
My fav cartoon was a toss up between speedy gonzales and the animaniacs...:)..
I miss these old days...nostalgia is coming back!!!
3:54 He later says this line in A.V.G.N episode 95.
Thanks for the re-upload! I tried finding this on UA-cam a while back.
I've been looking all over UA-cam to see this again. Thank you for reposting!!!
I remember watching this video, it’s great to watch these videos again. Just two people sharing a passion.
VINTAGE JAMES AND MIKE!!!! What a treat during these crazy times - thanks guys
10:35 I love catching disappearing animation, I feel like I'm Neo finding a glitch in the Matrix
James & Mike, I've been a fan and subscriber since the ninja turtles avgn episode lol thank you both for the years of entertainment- also, it's nice seeing you guys friendship, its awesome to know the many things you both enjoy together, treasure it - like we all know you both do - especially during these times. Stay safe and healthy you two.
I've been looking for this a while, I remember watching it back in the day! Glad you reuploaded. I have two books that talk about the old Warner Brother cartoons: Chuck Amuck, The Wonderful World of Chuck Jones, and Bugs Bunny Fifty Years and Only One Grey Hare.
Ive been waiting forever for u guys to put this on UA-cam!!! Thank you
Further proof that Mike is a vampire
This is from 2009 or 2010? He hasn’t aged a minute.
I remember watching this one on the old Cinemassacre site when ut was newly posted. Damn. Has it really been eleven years ago?
17:59 True, I watched Tom & Jerry, Bugs Bunny in Chinese when I was young back in 90s and early 00s
When I was a kid, guys would make a living showing off these things for parties etc. This is great.
He has every nes game (except for the nes championships) damn i envy him so fucking much
@@edmund8954 get a multicart and you can have them too. with the mass amount of shit games for the NES, who wants to waste space on that.
I remember this video! Ah good times. You guys are the best.
Nice! I remember watching this video on Cinemassacre website back then but I'm glad you guys released on UA-cam now.
Great video! I have a new appreciation for the Warner classics from this. Maybe I need to find a collection for my son.
I watched these in the 00’s while I was growing up on tv. In Canada we have a knock off Cartoon Network called teletoon and they showed these a bunch under hour long or half hour long slots where they’d show a bunch of the more well known ones. They called them the bugs bunny and tweety show or the porky pig show etc.
The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show is correct, that's the one that aired on Teletoon :)
It's really cool seeing you all just hanging out and sharing and talking about random cool stuff. Cool!
I've watched this hundreds of times on the site. For some reason, it just puts me in a happy place. Please do more of these!
You can see the passion for it radiate from you both ! And I for one enjoy these old Looney Tunes cartoons the most too.
Watched a lot of these in the 80s and 90s as a kid. Always enjoyable. The editing and especially the sound fx were top notch for the era they were made. A lot of those sounds still used today 70 years later.
Just love this "Raw Content" this "B Side Roll" thank you Cinemassacre crew for all of this great back to the past memories. Also, I'm 34 and remember most of these cartoons.
This video is wonderful! Your film projector setup is awesome...Thank you for sharing. Thank you so much!
I remember people showing me these reels as a kid. I was always a humongous history nut. This is a really special treat! Thanks for showing us your guys's collections!
Thank you so much for finally uploading this! I thought these were forgotten about!
Glad they re-uploaded this video. I remember it being on Cinemassacre’s website. Don’t know if it’s still there or not as it’s been awhile since I’ve been over at the website, but I remember this video was on UA-cam, on this channel if I recall correctly many years ago, but it was later removed. Not sure why that was, but at least it’s back now.
16mm film...that brings me back to being a kid in the 80s. I remember seeing a lot of movies on it either at a friend's house or at school.
Its so cool seeing doing videos this young, it really shows how long they've known each other
Awesome video! Thanks for adding it on here. :)
I remember week nights from 6-7 there was an hour of looney toons on TNT...miss those days.
You guys are very passionate about this and it shows in your work and its great you have all this old stuff great work guys much respect to james and mike
Love these classic Cinemassacre videos!
At the beginning of the video, as James gives the introduction. He looks SOOO STONED! Lol
The projector that he has is a Singer Graflex Insta-load 16mm sound projector. I used to have one and it doesn’t seem to work, because the film spill out the supply reel fast. So I replaced it with my absolute favorite, the Kodak Pageant AV-126-TR, the Cadillac of movie projector.
