But MGM didn't use it SO much until 1955 when the Cinemascope remake "Good Will To Men", that was when Hanna and Barbera (who were now producers of MGM after Fred Quimby retired) thought of using it as their trademark falling sound. That's why they used it so frequently since then. And that's why animation in general is continuing to use it since. And I wish that was over already!
