Films Watched in 2025: 8. The Flight of Dragons (1982) - Dir. Jules Bass/Arthur Rankin Jr.

I sort of saw this one coming. Yellow Pinkie, the Goldfinger/Arch-Rival of Secret Squirrel had to be involved. I also love how this guy just looks like The Kingpin. Seriously. Does this mean Paul Frees could have done Kingpin for a 60s animated Marvel show? I think it does, actually. Paul Frees used a voice I found similar to his Boris Badenov and Burgermeister Meisterberger. Very german or eastern european. But he was good at those types of voices, wasn't he? I think he was, since he did those voices a lot. (Scooby-Doo Team-Up #22):

A thread I just posted to Bluesky. Dunno if anyone here might appreciate it.

Quite the humbling experience.

I'm a big fan of Hanna Barbera's Fantastic Four (1967-1968).

Like NBC was trying to cash in on the Batman craze with Captain Nice, CBS also tried to cash in with Mr Terrific. The series was about Stanely Beamish (Stephen Strimpell) a gas station attendant who could transform into a superhero when he took a pill developed by the government. In the unaired pilot, Beamish was played by Alan Young. The first episode aired on January 9, 1967. Legendary voice actor Paul Frees was the narrator. ("Matchless" Mr Terrific, TV Event)

Paul Frees (June 22, 1920 – November 2, 1986)

(Scooby-Doo Team-Up #21): It's Spy Fiction time, as Mystery Inc meets Secret Squirrel, or Agent 000 of the I.S.S. (International Sneaky Service). In preparation for reading this, I watched three random old Secret Squirrel cartoons. They were pretty good. Mel Blanc and Paul Frees apparently did almost all the voices, but those two bounced off each other pretty well. So the shorts are fun to watch, to the point where I think we could probably use more of him today.

Was reading a book by one of Mel Blanc's sound engineers and was reading this recap of a commercial session that Mel and Paul Frees did together. And while I am rather disheartened to hear that they didn't get along (as I love them both), the fact that, somewhere, there's an outtake of Bugs Bunny and the Ghost Host (or perhaps Daffy Duck and Ludwig Von Drake) essentially casting Vicious Mockery on each other is something that I, admittedly, would be morbidly curious to hear someday.

(Release the tapes, Noel!!!)

Here Comes Peter Cottontail (Rankin/Bass, 1971)

Buy me a coffee!

I found an extended recording of most if not all of the lines that Paul Frees did for the Ghost Host in the Haunted Mansion! It's so funny to listen to because I didn't realize his voice was just like that, and hearing the eloquent and mysterious Ghost Host stammer is so unexpected.
