  • Perseus was Dingo's 1st actually animated movie and it seems one they wanted to forget because the only found release of it is on an Italian DVD! Yes, this is the movie DINGO PICTURES wasn't proud of...

    1928: "Steamboat Willy" signals the end of the silent movie era.
    1942: "The Dover Boys at Pimento University" is the first animated short that used a new animation technique called "smearing" to imply movement in animation.
    1992: "Perseus" introduces the concept of bobbing heads up and down to depict laughter.

    And then her sisters were cursed as well because they had the _audacity_ to stand up for their recently assaulted younger sibling.

    I recently did a project on Medusa at school, I learned her backstory, and how dark it gets. She was born a beautiful woman, then she was raped by Poseidon when he saw her praying at one of Athena’s temples. Athena was angry, understandably, and since she couldn’t do anything to Poseidon, being a god and all, she cursed Medusa instead, turning her into the ‘monster’ we knew her. It’s a pretty tragic story. Then the Perseus thing happened.

Also the narrator is Stefano Albertini (commander Black, Recoome, Spopovitch and South King Kai's voice), Phimeus got Patrizio Prata's voice (Android 17, teen Goten in GT) and the talking donkey is voiced by Claudio Moneta (Tenkaichi announcer, Zarbon, Cooler and more recently Goku/Black Goku in our DBS dub) so yeah an italian Dragonball voice actors reunion indeed :^)

    They missed some key points of the story in this the sandals were given to him by Hermes, the polished shield was given by Athena and when he had finished with Medusa's head the image of it remained imprinted on Athena's shield. They also missed the part when Perseus had killed Medusa the winged horse Pegasus, even worse Pegasus does not even appear in this version at all. Also missing is Hades helmet of invisibility that was given to Perseus so he could sneak into the Gorgons' camp. Its even worse that Atlas was made into an ordinary instead of what he is, one of the Titans who was forced to hold up to sky as punishment. Then they tried to tie into Ovid's account of the myth in a way that makes it much worse.
    Your comments about Heracles being given help from Zeus in all of his challenges is completely wrong in the original account, or at least its summary as the original poems by the great bards Pisander and Panyassis are considered to be lost, Heracles overcomes all his tasks with his own skill and intelligence. This is of course bar the second task, the Hydra which was not counted as part of the original tasks because he received the help of the gods and as such Eurystheus did not count it. The other task that he did not count was the cleaning of the Augeas Stables as Heracles received payment for that. In his further adventures Heracles did not receive that much advantage he was still refused cleansing after his accidental killing of Iphitos for which he still had to spend three years of servitude to Omphale and he still died from his hydra poisoned robe. In Greek plays Heracles is anything but what you describe him as see Euripides or Seneca the Younger
    You should read the summaries given by pseudo-Apollodorus and Diodorus Siculus as these are the best sources we have for Heracles great tale and show his true side as not being some overly perfect super hero but deeply flawed but in the end good person has great powers but face enormous challenges. Though if only we had the great masterpieces by Pisander and Panyassis, Panyassis especially who was said to be on the same level as Homer what I would give to be able to hold and read his masterwork.

    So, first Goodtimes had Hercules, and now Dingo has Perseus. I'm starting to become genuinely concerned that there might be an animated children's adaptation of Oedipus floating around out there somewhere...

    Are there any animated movies depicting Theseus, Odysseus, the Trojan War or that actually use the name Heracles?
    Also, did Disney combine the Fates with the Graeae in Hercules?
    15:27 I’m pretty sure calling people NPCs was intended as a meme but has spiraled out of control.

    I just found I have a Dingo Pictures game for the PS1 (Goldie). Why is my PS3 retrocompatible with PS1 games? WHY?!?
    I speak Italian too! I'm so lucky :/.
    Anyways, great video!

    Maybe it's just because I don't speak italian, but the italian voice actors seem to be way more invested than the others or at least the East-West dub guys.

      Well any other language dub of Dingo Pictures movies are better than the east west crap... hopefully?

    Perseus and Ajax really were the Don Quixote and Sancho Panza of their time.

    I just had a quiz on mythology and I was able to remember information on a myth because of this video.
    So it's official. Both Dingo and Phelous can help you in school!!!

    Dingo really is like a car accident, you go into them knowing your going to see something horrible but you just can't look away.

    And that was after all the one and only time Zeus ever commited incest *(cough)*

    I wasn’t familiar with Perseus other than knowing the shield trick with Medusa, so I looked him up and on his Wikipedia page, it had a family tree and...... Danae is also a descendant of Zeus.....
    I know Greek mythology had a LOT of incest, but..... DAMN!!!!

    I just realized that Zeus in the Dingo Perseus said: "Leave my son and HER mother in peace!" instead of "HIS mother"

  • @jsb8261
    @jsb8261 5 років тому +5

    Wait, so even though we saw Perseus use Medusa's head against the king it was too much to have him use it on the shark?

    That is one wimpy looking Perseus. I know he's no Hercules, but even I have a bigger build than Dingo's Perseus.

  • @olserknam
    @olserknam 5 років тому +4

    Haven't watched yet, but I remember Perseus was my favorite ancient Greek hero as a child, probably because his story was one of the few myths to have a happy ending without some sort of a dark twist. Wouldn't be surprised if Dingo added one just for the sake of it tho

      yung venuz of course it does, drawing ugly looking characters is Dingo’s speciality, so when they intentionally want to make one ugly they do it justice

    12:41 When they're peering from around the rocks, how much taller is Perseus than Ajax? Or is he standing on his shoulders?

  • @Azelf89

    I think the dog being named Cerberus might actually be a joke from Dingo about it’s name, as Cerberus comes from the root Indo-European word Kerberos, which evolved into the Greek word Κέρβερος, which then got changed to Cerberus when it went from Greek to Latin. The word kerberos itself means “spotted”, which technically means that Hades, Lord of the Dead, called his dog Spot.
