It doesn't get much better than the the black-and-white Fleischer Popeyes, even for modern audiences.
Each year I show "Lost 'n Foundry" to my Manufacturing Processes class of engineering seniors to illustrate industrial safety (or the lack thereof). They always laugh in the right places...
My brother (also an engineer) and I have a descriptive phrase for any machine that seems to have an excess of randomly-moving parts: "That thing has more parts than a Popeye factory..."
As for "A Dream Walking", I saw that at an independent theater in Boston back in the '70's. I think everyone but me was high on something and when Bluto, Popeye, and Olive merged together on the beams and then separated, the audience collectively went, "OOOOOH".
