I love it. I wish I knew of something similar from the Soviet side that we could post as a complement. I don't remember anything of the sort, alas! “The Evil Atom.”

My uncle fabricated the radio-fissile component of Little Boy which vaporized Hiroshima. Karma is going to be a bitch. 5... 4... 3... 2... Very entertaining…

Foiling the bad atoms' formulas and tampering with maps is the key to victory! Propaganda aside, I quite enjoyed the fox spinning up the propellers on the plane. For some reason that flowed much better than the rest of the animation. It's like they actually took the time to get the personality of the fox down, but didn't take five seconds to think about how insane they sounded. Even for a film aimed at elementary kids, that was pretty vague. Remember kids: only by engaging in espionage can you combat the bad atoms!

I just started writing a reaserch paper on Cartoon cold war propaganda. Mostly picked the topic becuase it amuses me, and I grew up during the last days it was shown in classrooms frequently.

Have a big collection of these from ebay and use them to cobble together "educational presentations" for The Art of Bleeding, including this seasonal piece: http://www.artofbleeding.com/valentine-movie.html Thanks for posting that!
