* NeverTrustATitle: Even though the title bears Tweety's name, it's actually Sylvester who goes up (and then down) the beanstalk. In the actual cartoon, Tweety is a pet of the giant.

An Axe To Grind is no longer a trope


* AnAxeToGrind: Two instances:
** How the giant cuts the apple in which Sylvester has taken refuge.
** How Sylvester deals with the base of the trunk while the giant is climbing down.

Sylvester is no WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck, however; he knows to cut his losses and run off. Once he’s slid all the way down the beanstalk, he chops away at the base of the trunk. The tree tips over, leaving the pursuing giant to face a date with gravity. The landing – right on top of Sylvester – is so hard that the puddy tat finds himself knocked all the way to the other end of the earth. He bears witness to a slant-eyed variant of the regular-sized Tweety, in an Asian rice hat.

'''Tweety and the Beanstalk''' is a 1957 WesternAnimation/MerrieMelodies cartoon directed by Creator/FrizFreleng, and the third full BeanstalkEpisode in their stable. It stars WesternAnimation/SylvesterTheCatAndTweetyBird.

A farm mother is overheard scolding Jack for trading their cow for a handful of beans she doesn’t believe are magic. The beans are thrown outside the house window and roll right underneath the litterbox Sylvester is sleeping in.

Almost immediately, the beans take effect, with Sylvester still in dreamland. He wakes up to find things looking considerably different — as in, bigger. As he takes in his new surroundings, he spots a gigantic cage which holds a Tweety bird that is roughly his size… and he is thrilled. (Tweety not so much.) Before he can take home his prize, he’ll be dealing with a massive bulldog, their massive owner… and a legit giant mouse (by his standards, anyway).

Sylvester is no WesternAnimation/DaffyDuck, however; he knows to cut his losses and run off. Once he’s slid all the way down the beanstalk, he chops away at the base of the trunk. The tree tips over, leaving the pursuing giant to face a date with gravity. The landing – right on top of Sylvester – is so hard that the puddy tat finds himself knocked all the way to the other end of the earth. He bears witness to a slant-eyed variant of the regular-sized Tweety, in an Asian rice hat.
