. . . leaves Sylvester coveting the Giant's humongous canary ("Acres and acres of Tweety Bird," as Sylvester exaggerates). While Sylvester is able to carry this Ginormous Tweety, he cannot chomp him down in one bite (as he's been able to do with hundreds of earlier Tweeties during this series). Since Sylvester never gets so much as a nibble of Tweetzilla, it's impossible to know exactly what line of attack he might have in mind for a potential Super Canary Fest. Though most guys in a similar predicament would recruit their buddies to help deal with such an unexpected (if unwieldy) bird bonanza, Sylvester is depicted as a "loner" cat throughout his Tweety-stalking career. When other felines appear, he sees them mostly as rivals for his meat supply--not to be trusted. Therefore, Sylvester never calls in any reinforcements during TWEETY AND THE BEANSTALK. Consequently, Sylvester is butt-dialed down to China as soon as he chops down the beanstalk (with the Giant's rear end looming above him). Fortunately, he "pops down" next to an Asian Tweety, meaning that he's in store for something like Gen. Tsao's chicken.

Personally I like the Sylvester and Tweety cartoons, though if I were honest I prefer those of Bugs and Daffy. Tweety and the Beanstalk is for me one of their better cartoons, along with Hyde and Go Tweet. It is basically a fun little twist on the timeless Jack and the Beanstalk tale, with a size reversal between Sylvester and Tweety. The animation is crisp and colourful, while the music is bright and lively. Both Tweety and the Giant have some great dialogue, my favourite was the one in the title of this review, while some of the cartoon revolves around Sylvester's ingenious(or not so ingenious) traps to capture Tweety. Tweety is good here, while Sylvester and the Giant are even better, and Mel Blanc is excellent once again. Overall, simply great. 10/10 Bethany Cox

"Tweety and the Beanstalk", directed by Friz Freleng, is a fast & funny Tweety/Sylvester cartoon in which the slobbering feline finds himself as the main character in the familiar Jack & the Beanstalk story. Thus, Sylvester is tiny, even tinier than Tweety! "I tawt I taw a itty bitty putty tat!" My favorite moments from this cartoon: I love the way Tweety says, "Ooh, dat itty bitty putty tat, he up to no dood!" as Sylvester unscrews the bottom of Tweety's birdcage and gets flattened. I also laugh at Tweety's Asian stereotype at the very end; yes, I know it's wrong, but it's very funny.You can catch "Tweety and the Beanstalk", among numerous other Looney Tunes fairy tales, on the Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume 5 Disc 2.

When Jack grows his beanstalk, his cat accidentally gets caught up in it as it grows upwards and Sylvester wakes up in the giant's kingdom. When he discovers that everything is bigger in this world he immediately makes it his goal to get his hands on a Tweety Pie bird that is as big as he is!After Jack-Rabbit and the Beanstalk, Sylvester also gets caught up in the fairy tale. The film is really just the usual jokes but with the size difference making a slight change to the gags and routines. The size difference isn't used that well - Sylvester still tries to get into Tweety's cage and is still chased by a dog - it doesn't really matter that they are bigger than usual.Tweety has very little to do apart from be a little bigger than usual (and put on a funny accent at the end). Sylvester is pretty good but neither the dog nor the giant really have anything in the way of character.Overall this is an enjoyable enough cartoon but it is just a shame that the fact that everything is bigger than usual isn't used very well or make much difference. Also, Tweety is not a strong enough presence here to justify his name being in the title.
