What classic cartoon title do you think is the most interesting?

I would say "I've got to Sing a Torch Song" (a 1933 Merrie Melody)

I have always enjoyed the brillaint puns used for the Warner cartoons. All of Bugs Bunny's cartoons have interesting plays on words involving "rabbit, "hare", "bunny", "Wabbit", etc. The Road Runner toons are pretty good with their titles ("Fast and Furry-Ous" -a pun producer Edward Selzer supposedly didn't get) "Guided Muscle", "War and Pieces"...the list goes on. Even some of the later cartoons have some real funny ones...one that I have actually used once in some situation or another was "Assault and Pepper".

There are a few Fox & Crow titles I like, especially "Mr. Moocher" and "Way Down Yonder in the Corn". The Bugs Bunny, Hippety Hopper, and Road Runner cartoons had clever titles too. There's also the clever title of the Barney Bear cartoon, "Heir Bear".

Two other Columbias which had extremely interesting titles are "Lo, The Poor Buffalo" and "The Case Of The Screaming Bishop". I don't know how good these cartoons are but they do get points for their titles.

Mine favorite title would be the Heckle And Jeckle cartoon "PILL PEDDLERS", back when the cartoon was released, the title wasn't really that big a deal, but in today's politically correct society some people may get offended by the cartoon's title making some people believe that is in refrence to selling drugs.
