FOG HORN LEG HORN ROOSTER SERIES
It is possible it was planned to be in that series before being changed. Despite that fact that this is a Merrie Melodie cartoon, the lobby card erroneously calls it as a Looney Tune.
International foreign language dubs used in the 1998 dubbed versions such as French, Polish, Italian and Dutch are low-pitched. This print was used on the Golden Collection, without the notice at the end. In 1998, for the "THIS VERSION" of the short, the original opening and credits were restored. The others were " Daffy Dilly", " Kit for Cat", " Scaredy Cat", and " You Were Never Duckier". This was one of only five post-1948 WB cartoons to get a Blue Ribbon reissue prior to 1956 - with the original credits cut. Also cut was an earlier scene where Foghorn stops Henery from pushing a trunk and wildly gesticulates that Henery does not have a chicken, only to realize that he has been slapping around Barnyard Dawg. The ABC version only cut Foghorn sliding into Barnyard Dawg's house to retrieve the dynamite, the ensuing explosion, and some of Barnyard Dawg throwing Foghorn Leghorn into the ground. The ABC version cut the explosion ending like CBS did, but left in a bit more. Barnyard gets so mad at Foghorn that he slams Foghorn into the ground several times and calls Foghorn a "good-for-nothing chicken", which convinces Henery (and drives him to hit Foghorn over the head with a shovel). The CBS version cut the entire ending where, after Foghorn tries to prove that he is a chicken and Henery dismisses him as a "schnook", Foghorn sees Henery heading to Barnyard Dawg's house with a stick of dynamite and tries to stop him ("Don't do it! I'll get blamed for it!"), only to get caught in the explosion when he slides into Barnyard Dawg's house. HBO Max (2020 - ) (restored, with original opening title card and credits) Censorship Although Foghorn now calls himself a "loudmouthed shnook," Henery says, "Chicken or shnook, in our oven he'll look good!" When Henery throws a stick of dynamite into the Barnyard Dawg's house, Foghorn tries to stop the explosion, but the dog slams Foghorn (thinking he was responsible) to the ground several times and finally calls him a "good-for-nothing chicken," which is enough for Henery - he suddenly slams a shovel over Foghorn's head and starts dragging him away. When Henery pushes along a trunk, Foghorn again tries to straighten Henery out, but his emphasizing by hitting the trunk winds up hitting the Barnyard Dawg, who chases Foghorn up a ladder and into a watermelon, after which Foghorn mutters "Some days it don't pay to get outta bed!" The first read "Shnook!" and the second said "Loud Mouth'd That Is!". Henery brushes off Foghorn and exits before Foghorn can even finish his demonstration, leaving only two signs in his absence. Rooster, that is." He tries to crow at "sun-up," pulling up a cardboard cutout of the sun and crowing, but that does not work.
Foghorn stops them and asks Henery what he thinks Foghorn is - to which Henery replies that Foghorn is a "loud-mouthed shnook." Foghorn isn't helped when the dog wakes up and kicks him, calling him a "shnook."įoghorn continues to try and convince Henery that "I'm a chicken. Henery goes over to Barnyard Dawg's house, and knocks the dog out with a hammer. When Henery asks his grandfather if that was a chicken, the grandfather claims Foghorn isn't a chicken but a "loud-mouthed shnook." After this, he walks away with a yellow stripe down his back, signifying his cowardly nature. He is stopped by Foghorn, who doesn't let Henery's grandfather make off with the traumatized chickens or get a word in edgewise before deliberately bumping him in the stomach and kicking him out. Henery's grandfather raids a chicken coop and walks out with a couple of chickens. Henery's grandfather lies about what a chicken looks like by making him believe they are "great big monsters with sharp teeth, live in caves and fight like demons", leaving Henery in the dark as to what a chicken really is. Henery Hawk is talking with his grandfather about wanting to get a chicken, but the grandfather dissuades him, as he would get in the way.
