Just as an example of what one can do. The original video source for this was French and not remastered. The source looked dark and faded. With a touch of brightness, contrast, color and sharpness adjustment - plus removing the french audio track and replacing it with an English one from an old videotape source(also cleaned up)-we have what you see here.
Hercules, hero of song and story. Hercules, winner of ancient glory. Fighting for the right, Fighting with his might, With the strength of ten, ordinary men. Hercules, people are safe when near him Hercules, only the evil fear him, Softness in his eyes Iron in his thighs, Virtue in his heart, Fire in every part, Of the Mighty Hercules. 💘 ♐
Each studio had their own "Sound Effects". Sometimes they were shared. Harvey studios, Paramount and Trans Lux seemed to share some of the same ones. Would love a collection of them.
Zeus: In order to break the spell you must break the scepter of Medusa. Hercules: But what if I get too close and Daidalas turns me into stone? Zeus: Then you’re screwed!
Ha! I always assumed he was running from it... although that doesn't quite work either, as the cloud turns out to be about the same size as Mr. Bean's car.
Imagine fighting Matchstick when the cloud turns solid and falls when I landed on it. Me: FffUUUUUU-! (Crashes to the ground) Grim Matchstick: Well, sucks to be him.
Thank you for this -- especially for keeping the clip in its entirety, complete with opening and closing theme!

Why did Herc feel the need to catch that falling cloud?
Ha! I always assumed he was running from it... although that doesn't quite work either, as the cloud turns out to be about the same size as Mr. Bean's car.

The Directing Animator was the creator of Betty Boop
That I didn’t know. I do know Dedalus was voiced by the same person who voiced Popeye.
Virtue in his heart
Thunder in his fart
Fire in his fart would have worked too😏
