Injun Trouble (1938 short)

Injun Trouble is a 1938 Looney Tunes short directed by Robert Clampett. 
== Title ==
The title is a play on the phrase "engine trouble," substituting "Injun", which is a derogatory term for "Indian" or Native American. The same title would be later used for an unrelated 1969 short starring Cool Cat.
== Plot ==
Porky is leading a wagon that is going into Injun Joe's territory. He finds himself at odds with the super-chief. Goofus has a secret about the Injun Joe attack, but he won't tell Porky.

== Censorship ==
This short seldom airs on American television due to prominent Native American stereotyping. Unlike its remake, "Wagon Heels", "Injun Trouble" was one of the few Bob Clampett shorts that did not air on The Bob Clampett Show, though some clips were shown to demonstrate how this cartoon and "Wagon Heels" were alike. 
On the rare times that Cartoon Network aired this cartoon (specifically on Late Night Black and White), the sequence where "Joe" chops a Statue of Liberty from a tree was partially cut for unknown reasons. The edited version showed Porky and Injun Joe coming down the side of the Statue.https://web.archive.org/web/20240229103138/https://www.intanibase.com/gac/looneytunes/censored-i-j.aspx/
== Notes ==
* This short was later remade in color as "Wagon Heels", also directed by Bob Clampett.
* Most syndicated prints along with the computer colorized version have the 1939-43 Porky drum ending; although the ending audio is correct, this must have been a goof-up when WB syndicated the cartoons. 
* This is one of the redrawn colorized cartoons that used original theatrical opening and closing titles but retraced.
* The scene of Injun Joe biting on a bear trap, causing it to yelp in pain and run off was reused in its color remake "Wagon Heels" and the 1940 short "The Chewin' Bruin".
