[[File:Popeye-313.jpg|thumb|280px]]'''''Pitchin' Woo at the Zoo''''' is the 129th [[Popeye]] cartoon, released in 1944 by [[Famous Studios]].

==Plot==
Popeye and [[Olive]] visit a zoo where [[Bluto]] is the zookeeper, whom tries to woo the dame away from the [[sailor]]. Popeye will have none of this, but after the couple leave the vicinity of the tiger's pit, Bluto sneakily grabs Popeye and lets him slide towards the beast's maw. Popeye escapes only to find Olive admiring the zookeeper's trick to put a crocodile to sleep by stroking its belly. When the sailor tries to do the trick himself, it is the animal that does it to him. With Popeye sound asleep, the zookeeper leads Ms. Oyl away but, as he attempts to sweet-talk her, she inadvertedly wanders into the leopards' cage. The crocodile's continued rubbing of Popeye's belly helps his [[spinach]] can pop out, and his snoring causes the vegetable to be sucked through his [[pipe]]. As Bluto is getting into a suit of armor in order to save Olive, she is promptly rescued by Popeye. An elephant then uses her as its toy, but ends up as Popeye's plaything. The zookeeper, angry at his own failure to save the lovely lady, lets out a huge number of animals (from a single cage) but Popeye catches them in another. Keeper and animals are meshed into a single carousel attraction, at the center of which ride Popeye and Olive.

New page

'''Sir Pomeroy''' is a character that featured in the daily [[Popeye]] comic strips (formerly ''[[Thimble Theatre]]'') of the mid-to-late 1950's. He was created by writer Ralph Stein and artist [[Bill Zaboly]].

Sir Pomeroy (or "Pommy") was a British big game hunter that regularly went on adventures around the world, often inviting the strong [[sailor]] along to serve as his companion. Decades later, the character would be featured in the strip again during [[Bobby London]]'s tenure.

After the resulting barbershop-leveling explosion, Popeye sees his spinach can fall nearby and, although his mouth is encased in cement, he is able to suck the vegetable with his protruding [[pipe]]. He is now able to mess up his earlier work on Bluto, but then both notice Olive passing by, on a date with a [[ship]]'s captain whose long beard she finds "utterly distinguished".

-'''''The Anvil Chorus Girl''''' is the 126th [[Popeye]] cartoon, released in 1944 by [[Famous Studios]]. It is a noteworthy episode for various reasons: it was the first made after Famous Studios removed their operations to New York City from Miami; it marked the return of [[Mae Questel]] as the voice of [[Olive Oyl]] after a hiatus of several years; and it introduced [[Jackson Beck]] as the voice of [[Bluto]]. Perhaps as importantly, it saw the revamp of the Bluto character's appearance from that of a paunchy, slovenly slacker to a handsome, well-muscled strongman whose looks and powerful physique would be a real threat to Popeye as well as in regards to Olive's loyalties.

Bluto quickly returns to his senses and is overjoyed that he has been chosen over Popeye. But his jubilation turns to outrage when he sees Olive drive off in a carriage with Popeye, proffering her final sarcastic dig of 'Toodaloo, strong man!' as she leaves Bluto to work at the shop. As the cartoon ends, we see that Bluto has placed his head on an anvil and is smacking himself over and over with a pair of sledgehammers.

There, he sabotages the pipes so that water starts gushing from her piano, wall pictures and even her rug.

 Through this all Bluto laughs uproariously.  Popeye makes an attempt to rescue Olive's precious pet from certain annihilation, but Bluto grabs the [[sailor]] and flings him into a lamppost, which bends to hold him helpless as the musclebound menace dishes out one explosive blow after another (Bluto's father would utilize the same technique in ''Baby Wants a Battle'').  A short distance away, Killer ties up Frenchie and uses him as a speedbag.  Finally, Bluto grabs a huge wooden maul and gives Popeye one final blast, which shatters the lamp standard and knocks his badly beaten foe into a pothole in the middle of a roadway.  One final punch from Killer sends little Frenchie flying right next to Popeye.

 At the last possible moment we see a hand extend from the black goo holding some object.  As the tar drips off we are able to make out that it is a tin can with a label that reads "[[spinach|SPINACH]]."  The human hand pours half of it into the canine's mouth and then takes the other half for itself as the first bars of the [[I'm Popeye The Sailor Man|Popeye theme song]] blare triumphantly.  Suddenly, the approaching steamroller is held aloft by a small dog, and Popeye gives the vehicle a massive punch of his own.

 Popeye gets back at Bluto by going into Olive's bedroom through her window, which was still open, and uses a jar of [http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/Vanishing+cream?s=t vanishing cream] to make himself invisible. He scares both Olive and Bluto (mainly Bluto) and Bluto eventually runs out of Olive's house. Popeye reveals himself and Olive kisses him for saving her, getting red lipstick all over his face. Popeye turns to the audience and says, "Loves them ghosts."

 The game stars [[Popeye]] on a quest to find 25 hearts and bring them back to [[Olive Oyl]], across a seaside town environment made up of several linked screens. Asked by King Features to make the characters look as much as the ones in the comics, programmer Don Priestley was constrained by the Spectrum's single-color sprites. The solution was to build every character by joining several differently-colored sprites together, making them large and colorful, but also causing them to take up a big portion of the screen.
-In order to provide enough movement space, a system is used where many of the game's various screens have two or more "layers", invisible to the player, that Popeye can traverse by moving up or down. The player is clued as to Popeye's position by the structures he can or cannot move over. Popeye also has the ability to climb ropes and stairs, and must avoid [[Bluto]] and [[the Sea Hag's vultures]], which roam the area going from screen to screen. [[Spinach]] cans function as extra lives in this game, helping Popeye get back to his feet when he is defeated.

Soon enough, salesman Popeye arrives from the city driving his "Popeye's Department Store" truck, which he unfolds into an actual, large store full of modern appliances.
