Laurel and Hardy in The Tree in a Test Tube

those were the days it was so different nothing is better in 2000 except technology, now all kinds of shit rule america including hollywood.

worrying to think how many trees are chopped. terrible. are modern plastics made from trees too? sos:?

No, Most plastics today are derived from petroleum. We could do a lot better if we could make the hydrocarbons from things other than petroleum.

Yes, the voice over does sound like it is Stan. I would never have thought of that but listening closely I can hear him.

It's not Stan, Stan was British.

The narration was actually provided by Pete Smith, a film producer who also narrated numerous documentary shorts.

It even says Pete Smith inthe credit at the start!

I Prefer The Ones Made In BW Coz On The Coulour Ones It Aint Very Good Picture. Laurel And Hardy Are Gods BTW Bless Em!

Incredible post, as a longtime Laurel and Hardy fan I thought I'd seen it all. If you don't already have it, I highly recommend the european box set of all of L H's shorts, silents and almost all of their features. The DVDs released in the states have been mostly shameful! And it's a real trip to see the boys speaking spanish and german in alternate foreign versions!
