Far more than a cartoon, Betty Boop is a cultural icon who wins new fans with any generation; so why not plan a Betty Boop movie party that makes guests say, “Boop boop be doop!”

Although Betty won’t appear in her first live action movie until later this year, she has starred in a number of cartoons that could be shown to guests. The ultimate Betty Boop party movie marathon could include:

Betty Boop and Grampy—directed by Dave Fleischer, with voice supplied by Mae Questel
Betty Boop for President—directed by Dan Dalton, narrated by Tom Smothers
Betty Boop and the Little King-- directed by Dave Fleischer, with voice supplied by Mae Questel
Betty Boop’s Crazy Inventions-- directed by Dave Fleischer, with voice supplied by Mae Questel
Betty Boop: Queen of the Cartoons—A&E documentary narrated by Peter Graves
Betty Boop and Little Jimmy-- directed by Dave Fleischer, with voice supplied by Mae Questel
Betty Boop for President-- directed by Dave Fleischer, with voice supplied by Mae Questel
Of course, no Betty Boop movie party would be quite as bodacious without some downright ‘Booplicious’ party supplies. These could include primary party colors of ivory, black, silver and lavender (to evoke a classic film noirish feel) expressed in shiny tulle or tissue banners, balloons (including several in the shape of Betty’s big head), ribbons and streamers, wall art (portraits and glossies from the golden age of Hollywood, or some old Betty animation cels, would be perfect) and tableware; indeed, large cookie jars in the shape of Betty’s big ol’ head are even available. Betty Boop figurines, wall calendars, soft dolls, ornaments, notebooks and greeting cards could be given as party favors, as could Betty charm bracelets.

Guests are sure to boop on over to the ultimate Betty Boop movie party!
