- This is a later Stuart reissue. Originally titled 'Koko in 1999'.
Chased by Father Time, Ko-Ko runs through time and into the futuristic world of 1999. There, Ko-Ko finds a mechanical barber, an automated feeding machine, and even an instant marriage.
The series was the result of three short experimental films that Max Fleischer independently produced from 1914 to 1916 to demonstrate his invention, the rotoscope, a device consisting of a film projector and easel used to achieve realistic movement for animated cartoons. The rotoscope projected motion picture film through an opening in the easel, covered by a glass pane serving as a drawing surface. The image on the projected film was traced onto paper, advancing the film one frame at a time as each drawing was made. Fleischer's younger brother Dave Fleischer, who was working as a clown at Coney Island, served as the model for their first famous character, eventually known as Koko the Clown.

He’s so talented, it’s really impressive. I can’t believe Fleischer Studios aren’t around anymore
No wonder. Animation of this quality would be unaffordable these days...
@@vermilion7777it's just rotoscoping, you can do that with a basic animation software for 7 dollars instead of tracing over film like they used to do.
I love how the future isn’t computers or internet or smartphones or flying cars… it’s a series of mechanical hands
*And* a bit too much "instant gratification" that feels like you're being cheated in what you purchase. Seriously though, I can't imagine "ordering" kids like that - it's too fast, and you don't get to gradually grow with the process - it's just, you're there before you're realizing that you're after it! Adoption is one thing, but this is too much at 5:31.
Disclaimer in case someone misunderstands me: _I'm _*_not_*_ criticizing the cartoon._ I'm against the idea of *too much* "instant gratification" that sounds like more than a caffeine headache.
AI hands
You understand mechanical hands are the ruler of everything.
1927s depiction of 1999 is way beyond that.
I am amazed at how accurate this cartoon was in predicting today's technology... I'm still here at the wives dispensing machine, waiting for my clown.
Agreed, the wait time on tinder is a bit irritating sometimes but atleast the presence of clowns is guaranteed
Great upload! loved this one! The scene with Koko's babies is hilarious. I love the reaction of his wife-to-be literally tearing him to pieces
Ah yes, I remember back in 1999 when vending machines still sold matrimonial advice for a quarter.
This is a hoot! I wonder how the people in the future are going to react to all our present-day depictions of their time?
Igual a como reaccionamos nosotros al ver series como los supersonicos o peliculas como Volver al futuro
The Inkwell cartoons are all about the joy of making animated cartoons. Some of the animation and inking are extraordinarily good for the time.
They're extraordinarily good for any time.
He ran to the FUTURE!
Koko was the first cartoon I recall.
Amazing! I like it. Thanks.
In 1999, vending machine brides were 25 cents and you could be married by the electro-priest same day.
Kids today wouldn't understand.
I wish fletcher studios was around still
CGI, Antes de CGI
Max got 'the future' pretty spot on.
Except Koko's 'vending machine' (mail order) bride is rather overdressed for the 1990s.
5:30. The got the empowered female and offspring without sex right.
I deeply understand that they depicted 1999, but I thought Koko the Clown entered the actual 1999, you know, the culture at the time were hip hop, the 5th generation consoles, the television, etc.
So, technically, it was a clickbait.
I would've liked to have heard the dialogue!
This film didn't have dialogue. When this was reissued with (stolen) sound they decided not to include any either
At least, in 1999, people still knew that marriage was between make and female.
The matrimony machine still thought that. Everyone else knew it didn't matter.
Yep. Now with makes marrying other makes, it’s total chaos.
