Editorial Review:

Description:
More Looney Tunes. Your wish is our command. Because in this 4-disc set are 60 more of the most looneytic Looney Tunes ever unleashed on rabbits, pigs, mice or cats. Indeed, some have never before been on home video! Disc 1 features the tall, gray and haresome one. Disc 2 is all pig. Disc 3 is all about Speedy. And Disc 4 is the cats meow. One thing: to watch these, you must be as tall as this sign. Wrong disclaimer. Read the one in the box below. Got the idea? Now have fun

Amazon.com:
Like previous installments, the Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Volume 4 mixes favorites from the Warner Bros. archives with relatively obscure older works. Chuck Jones' "Mississippi Hare" and Friz Freleng's "Sahara Hare" and "Knighty-Knight Bugs" (which won an Oscar) offer hilarious performances by Bugs. Two of Jones' earliest films, "The Night Watchman" and "Conrad the Sailor" prefigure his use of subtle expressions in his later cartoons. The disc of shorts by Frank Tashlin includes "Plane Daffy": pigeon see-duck-tress Hatta Mari anticipates Jayne Mansfield in such later Tashlin live-action comedies as Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?

Not all of these films have aged as gracefully. Younger viewers will probably not catch the references to Charlie McCarthy, Bill Robinson, and other old film and radio stars. The Speedy Gonzalez cartoons feature ethnic humor that seems embarrassing today; it's also crashingly unfunny. Each disc offers a disclaimer about stereotypes, noting, "they were wrong then and are wrong today."

The discs are loaded with extras that range from a partial set of storyboards for "Sahara Hare" to three of the "Private Snafu" shorts, which were made for the "Army-Navy Screen Magazine" during WW II. The oddest extra is the documentary Bugs Bunny Superstar, which infuriated many of the Warner Bros. artists when it was released in 1977. Much of its information should be taken with a grain of salt. (Unrated, suitable for ages 6 and older: cartoon violence, some ethnic stereotypes, mild risqué humor, alcohol & tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

- The Merry-Go-Round Breaks Down!
Volume Four of the "Looney Tunes Golden Collection" is less than golden. A DVD set that wastes an entire disc on Speedy Gonzales - plus another on cats! - should be viewed with careful scrutiny. On the plus side, it's great having a disc devoted to the classic animation of Frank Tashlin. Unfortunately, the Bugs Bunny selections are a mixed bag, with "Operation: Rabbit" and the Oscar-winning "Knighty Knight Bugs" among the few highlights. Despite the generous amount of special features (including the 1975 "Bugs Bunny Superstar" documentary and three Private Snafu shorts), Volume Four lacks a well-rounded display of Warner Bros. cartoon madness.

Road runner fanatic. This has a full RR/WC disk. My kids love it. First choice when they are sick and need distracted: better than SpongeBob, Pink Panther, Anamaniacs...........

- Looney Tunes - Golden Collection, Volume Four
Volume four is a slight improvement over volume three in the Looney Tunes Collection. It's a four disc collection with fifteen shorts per disc for a total of sixty cartoons. As in previous sets each disc has a theme. Disc one is "Bugs Bunny Favorites"; Bugs Bunny has been the lead off set in every edition thus far. Disc two is "A Dash of Tashlin" that features Porky Pig. Disc three is "Speedy Gonzalez in a Flash" which features "the fastest mouse in all Mexico". Disc four is "Kitty Korner", a set that features different cats including Sylvester.

As in the other Golden Collections disc one, featuring Bugs Bunny, is the best disc in the set. Many of these are classic Bugs which includes the Academy Award winning "Knighty Knight Bugs".

I am excited that Looney Tunes is on DVD. The collection is wonderful to have with great special features. A must for Looney Tune Lovers!

- Stereotypes aside..
I am tired of a world that is so PC that we see cartoonists being killed for some religion. These were never taken literally by any 8 year older I knew in the fities or sixties. But let's get serious, if it means fun, it's better to show nudity, profanity or anti-moral issues than some cayote being blown up by an acme whatchamacallit.
Shame on me...but thse are classic laughter.
