Какой мультфильм был лучшим в СССР?

It was a Saturday morning tradition in my youth. My sister and I would awake early, run to the couch, and sit there for hours in our pajamas watching cartoons. What a relief for our parents! We were quiet, and they could sleep in. :) My favorite was "The Smurfs." These blue creatures were always on some spooky adventure, and I loved it. There was mystery, humor, intrigue, and even a female vixen who constantly distracted the male Smurfs. Feminists hate this imaginary blue seductress, and they created a popular theory called "The Smurfette Principle," which criticizes the way females are typically portrayed in cartoons. You can read about it here. To some extent I agree. I strongly dislike the classic Disney princess stories, where the helpless female is sitting around waiting for an imaginary prince to rescue her. Modern day Disney cartoons are much better, and the idea of a "princess" has evolved to include not only a beautiful woman, but a smart one also, with strong, charismatic personality traits.

Today, a reader sent me a Ukrainian folk cartoon, and I remember watching clips of Soviet cartoons on YouTube with macos during his first visit to the U.S. He introduced me to "Hedgehog in the Fog" and others. I fell in love with this adorable, fluffy character "Чебура́шка." :)

What's your favorite Soviet cartoon?

Treat readers as experimental mice? :)) You're very funny. Of course not. I'm interesting in Soviet life, and only my readers can provide personal insight about this experience. That's why I sometimes write about it. American watch all kinds of movies - the list of entertainment choices is endless. Americans drink all kinds of alcohol, but beer is really popular. For liquor, I think whiskey is the most common choice but people also love vodka in the USA. Indians - they live as normal U.S. citizens now. They don't look different, or run around wearing tribal clothes. :))

One day - I will write a post as you suggest - "Ask any question about the USA". :) Then, you can ask me more questions there.
