Help fiding a cartoon, most likely from the 80s

I remember watching it back in 90 when I a kid. Don't remember what language it was but something makes me think it might have been french. The only thing I can remember is that a group of characters in a forrest are trying to stop the construction and production of what I recall being a weapons factory. It might have been a sawmill, but I could be remembering that wrong because I remember a sceen of a circual saw cutting things inside the facility. I can't remember if the characters were human, animals, gnomes or a mixture of all those things. I don't recall any supernatural elements to it (besides the talking animals or whatever they were). I think about this cartoon every now and then and I just can not find what it is through Google. I hope you guys can help me out!

Edit: the only thing I can vividly remember is a circual blade saw cutting things on a conveyor belt (something makes me think the inside of the cut things was green). I believe the saw was on a handle type thibg on the wall to the right of the conveyor. Almost like something you'd see in the intro to Abe's Odysse.

Can anyone help me identify if this is a real show or something I dreamed up when I was a kid?

So whilst growing up in the 80s I remember watching a TV series (or maybe a movie), I still vividly recall details about it during the 90s and still into the early 2000s. Even now I distinctly remember some details, but no one I know does, and I can’t find anything on the net, so I assume that it was just a vivid dream… and yet I feel the need to ask strangers on the net to see if anyone can identify something from the memories below:

  1. A group of children are transported somehow (either by falling asleep and/or by magical means) to a dream state/dreamworld run by the sand man.

  2. The sandman is the villain and has his pet/henchman the nightmare track the children down.

  3. The nightmare is a shape changer that generally takes the form of a horse, but can change into anything that someone fears.

  4. The night mare attacks them in an equine form and again in the form of a bull.

  5. The children befriend the nightmare reverting it to its equine form that has a black coat and golden mane and hooves.

  6. The children and the nightmare evade the plans of the sandman to get back the nightmare as they attempt to find their way out of this dream world they are in.

For about 15 years I was sure this show existed, but never could find anything about it, but have realised it was probably just a vivid dream or series of dreams linked with other shows, but please if this is something that seems familiar to you, please let me know.

Evil cat laugh?

Hi! Hoping someone on this reddit can help me. I remember a cartoon from back in the day that had a villainous cat with an iconic laugh, sounded like "shashashashashasha." Am I making this up? I thought maybe Azraël from Smurfs, MADcat from Inspector Gadget, Snarf from Thundercats, even Baron Greenback's worm from Danger Mouse, but I haven't been able to confirm. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! 🤗

80s cartoon about asparagus on the moon

Hi there. Wondering if anyone can help me remember an animated movie or series from the 80s. I remember some characters were asparagus living on the moon and it was made of cheese. Sorry nothing much more than that.

Please help if you can! Thank you.

Pink Panther & Sons

I stumbled across this strange, short-lived series from the 80s, Pink Panther & Sons. It’s about the Pink Panther raising his two sons, Pinky & Panky, as a single father.

(Side Note: I never realized until lately just how many cartoons have single dads. That’s very…interesting.)

Anyway, it’s mostly about the sons having fun with their friends and getting into all types of adventures. Of course, Pink Panther doesn’t talk in the show but the sons are able to understand his nonverbal communication.

It was a silly, fun show & I’m curious to know if anybody out there remembered watching this.

The Bluffers

The other day I used ChatGPT to help me find a cartoon from my childhood, I described that it was a group of little dragons that lived in a castle and that one of them wore glasses.

The AI ​​answered me that the cartoon should be one called "The Bluffers" or in Spanish "the Komodo dragons", it gave me an exact description of what I remember, however when I searched for this cartoon on YouTube or Google it gave me another animation different.

Does anyone remember this animation?

The Great Mouse Detective

Just the other night, I rewatched one of my favorite Disney movies, The Great Mouse Detective. In my opinion, it’s one of the most underrated Disney films. A fun animated mystery movie that also piqued my interest in not only mysteries but in Sherlock Holmes. So for all you Disney fans out there, where do you rank this film amongst the great Disney films?

I’m hoping to find some people on here that love this film as much as I do…
