1930s

1933

Series	Title	Description
Feature film	Alice in Wonderland	The first attempt to produce an animated film adaptation of the classic novel of the same name written by Lewis Carroll. The film would be the first theatrical animated feature-length film of Disney. It was planned to be a combination of animation with live-action. Mary Pickford was attached to star as Alice. [1] However, the project was scrapped in favor of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs . In 1939, there was a second attempt to produce the animated film. Following the success of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs , Disney purchased the film rights to Carroll's book with Sir John Tenniel's illustrations. [2] A script and some storyboards were made by David Hall, as well as a Leica reel, but the project never materialized due to World War II. Twelve years later, a film based on the novel was released by Disney.

At one time, Mickey was supposed to help Donald with the ostrich, before he was omitted from the plot altogether in favor of the duck. The original kangaroo elements ended up in "Mickey's Kangaroo," which was released in 1935, minus the train station. Probably at the same time as Mickey was dropped from the cartoon, the film (now starring Donald Duck) was renamed "Donald's Ostrich," which was released in 1937. [4]

During the development, this was split into two cartoons, since the plot was considered too thick for a standard short, and it became "Mickey's Magic Hat". During the development of the former short, Donald was downgraded from Mickey's helper to a frustrated spectator role. It was released in 1937 as "Magician Mickey".
