Looney Tunes - Golden Collection Volume One
For years, animation buffs have waited impatiently for the Warner Bros. cartoons to appear on DVD. The Warner shorts never commanded the budgets and prestige of the Disney and MGM films, and won fewer Oscars than they deserved. But decades after the best ones were created, they remain the quintessential Hollywood cartoons: brash, fast-paced, aggressively funny and uniquely American. Virtually everyone in the U.S. under the age of 60 grew up on these films, in theaters and on TV. The 56 cartoons in the set (out of a studio output of over 1,000) were transferred from good prints--which means the viewer can see dust, scratches, and occasional mistakes by the cel painters. The films are all presented uncut, in defiance of the killjoys who have insisted on censoring alleged "violence" in the versions shown on television. Warner Bros. is obviously testing consumer response with this set. Although the erratic selection includes many classics, purists will argue (correctly) that it offers neither a fair representation of the directors' oeuvres, nor anything approaching a coherent history of the characters or studio style. (Nearly half the films were directed by Chuck Jones; only three are by Bob Clampett, and there's nothing by Tex Avery or Frank Tashlin.) But it seems petty to carp about omissions and biases when the discs offer excellent, uncensored prints of some of the funniest films ever made in the U.S.--or anywhere else. (Rated G, suitable for all ages: cartoon violence)

Looney Tunes - Golden Collection Volume 2
Brash, fast-paced, and hysterically funny, the Warner Brothers cartoons rank among the undisputed treasures of American animation and American comedy. This second collection, a follow-up to Looney Tunes: Golden Collection, includes such gems as "Porky in Wackyland," "A Bear for Punishment," "Gee Whiz-z-z," The Great Piggy Bank Robbery," and "I Love to Singa." A short documentary about director Bob Clampett features several cartoon historians, animator Eric Goldberg, Shawshank Redemption director Frank Darabont, and Ren and Stimpy creator John Kricfalusi (enthusiastic but over the top). But Warners continues its scattergun approach to selecting films. There are only eight cartoons by Clampett in the set, plus three by Tex Avery and one by Frank Tashlin. "Rabbit Fire" and "Rabbit Seasoning" appear on the first set, but the third cartoon in Jones's trilogy, "Duck! Rabbit! Duck!" isn't on either. More than two-thirds of the films are by Friz Freleng and Chuck Jones. That's not necessarily a bad thing. "Show Biz Bugs," "Bugs Bunny Rides Again," and the Oscar-winning "Tweety Pie" showcase Freleng's razor-sharp timing. "What's Opera, Doc," "The Dover Boys," and the justly celebrated "One Froggy Evening" rank among Jones's boldest experiments and most brilliant successes. Volume Two includes some genuine rarities, among them, "Sinkin' in the Bathtub" (1930), the first Looney Tune, and the Oscar-winning documentary "So Much for So Little." With 60-plus cartoons, transferred from good prints Looney Tunes - Golden Collection, Volume 2 is a collection to treasure. (Rated G, suitable for all ages: cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon

- Looney Tunes DVD collection
This is a must have for anyone who woke up through the 70's and 80's and sat down with their bowl of cereal in front of the tv to watch Bugs Bunny et al. VERY nostalgic! (who doesn't love the Barber of Saville?) I now get to enjoy the best episodes while listening to the laughter of my children who thoroughly enjoy them. It's a piece of history to be remembered.

- Looney Tunes are awesome
I am thoroughly enjoying my recent purchase of Looney Tunes gold collection, volumes 1-3. They bring back the cartoons I grew up on.

- Golden Looney Tunes
This is a great collection of cartoons. The children were entertained for hours and had to finally be pried away from the TV with the promise that they could watch more of the cartoons the next day.

Rating:

- Bringing Back Memories!
My main reason for purchasing this collection was that when I passed through the living room and saw my kids watching the cartoons that are on TV today, I reflected on my own childhood and the memories of Looney Tunes and how great they were. Cartoons today don't compare with the old Looney Tunes. Today's cartoons are just plain old obnoxious and in your face with a lot of nothing. These classic Looney Tunes are the way cartoons ought to be.

When my kids saw this collection of Looney Tunes, I sat down with them and we enjoyed them together! They love them, and they bring back memories for me as well. This is a great collection, you won't be dissapointed!

- Not Enough Bugs In Hare
America is a great country, ain't it, Doc? Where else do people pay a full price premium on a product that they really only want 25% of?

Alright, alright...perhaps dat ain't fair. Daffy, Porky and the rest of the gang have their moments. And some of the lesser known classics that feature none of the popular characters are "nice to have", but ain't "need to have".

But the Bugs Bunny shorts in this collection make it woith the dough and woith the 4 star rating. HIT THE BUY BUTTON, for sure, Doc.

It sure would be nice to be giving 5 stars to an all Bugs Bunny collection though. I mean why couldn't they sell the individual character collections separately. Rhetorical question, really. The answer is good old American capitalism. And us maroons keep buyin' ... Read More
