Question: We're Barnaby, Stannie Dum, and Ollie Dee based on actual nursery rhymes, or were they made up for the movie?
March of the Wooden Soldiers (1934)
1 question
Directed by: Charley Rogers, Gus Meins
Starring: Oliver Hardy, Stan Laurel, Virginia Karns
Other mistake: Bogeyland is just across the river outside of Toyland's gate, as we saw towards the end of the film, so it doesn't make sense that Barnaby had to climb down a well to enter it.
Barnaby: Big bait catches big rat.
Answer: Stan and Ollie were based on Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee. I believe the character of Barnaby was created for the movie.
