Originally Posted By danyoung Y'know, now that I think about it, I think 1928 is the correct date. Plane Crazy was done before Steamboat Mickey, but it wasn't released till later. So take everything I said above and throw it into the dumpster!
Originally Posted By gurgitoy2 Yeah, Plane Crazy was done first, but not released until after Steamboat, because they added sound to the first one. So, yeah, his true debut was in 1928.
Originally Posted By danyoung >So, yeah, his true debut was in 1928.< I knew that, but the brain just wasn't working for a moment. I'm an idiot!!!
