History Trivia / AnimalCrackers

* NamesTheSame: Two other comic strips known as ''Animal Crackers'' predate Bollen's strip -- the first a short-lived series from 1930 and the second a longer-running work by Dick Ryan and Warren Goodrich that ran in newspapers between 1936 and 1952 (although that one sometimes appeared under the title ''Animal Krackers'').

* ThrowItIn: Louis Soren (Chandler's actor) really did mix up his character's and Groucho's names. The sputtering that follows and Groucho [[BreakingTheFourthWall addressing the audience]] "Could I look at a program in a minute? I might be the news weekly for all he knows, or coming next week," were improvised on the spot. (You can tell because Chandler is laughing at Spalding's remark instead of staring at the camera in befuddlement)

* BeamMeUpScotty: Groucho's famous line is "One morning, I shot an elephant in my pajamas. How he got in my pajamas I don't know." The end of the line is frequently quoted as "I'll never know", as said in ''Film/ChittyChittyBangBang'' (Groucho himself said the incorrect line when he performed the scene with Margaret Dumont on the Hollywood Palace in 1965[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xlWQqFB4ECI&feature=youtu.be&t=242]])

* {{Bowdlerization}}: During the song "Hooray for Captain Spaudling", there is an obvious jump in the picture and soundtrack after Mrs. Rittenhouse's verse "He's the only white man who covered every acre". This is due to TheHaysCode cutting out Groucho's suggestive lyric "I think I'll try and make her" when the film was reissued in 1936, and the cut remains in all prints to this day.
** Also for that re-release, the Flit logo on the flit gun Harpo fills with KnockoutGas is blotted out so Paramount wouldn't get into trouble with the Flit company.
** The original uncensored version was finally discovered and restored for a UsefulNotes/BluRay set in 2016.

* MissingEpisode: This became a hard-to-find rarity in the Marx Brothers' repertoire when Paramount failed to renew the copyright for film's soundtrack, which reverted to the songwriters of the original play (the picture rights, however, did get renewed). It became available again after a fan campaign (which Groucho Marx himself joined in) convinced Universal Pictures (who, by then, had owned Paramount's pre-1950 sound film library) to re-release the film in 1974, and it wasn't shown on television until CBS broadcast the film in 1979.
