Toon Legends: Popeye in It's The Natural Thing to do (1939)

By 1939, Jack Mercer was well entrenched as the voice of Popeye, although there would be the periodic stand-ins. 

Not so the case for Olive & Bluto, as the trio are the only principal characters in "It's The Natural Thing To Do". Pinto Colvig, better known as the original voice of Disney's Goofy, voices Bluto here, and Margie Hines is Olive.


 

Never has Popeye's penchant for fracturing the simplest of words been more apparent than here, although the tuxedos the guys choose to spring for were a little too much.

Rating: A-.
