Looney Tunes: The Golden Collection : 5 of 5
1.31.2004
11:36 AM | Link
I had been hoping that someday there would be a DVD set of the classic Warner Brothers cartoons for a long time, so I was so happy that they finally made this collection (and that I received it for Christmas!). There is so much to love about this set! The cartoons themselves (over 50 of them) have been magically restored - the colors are so bright and the lines are so crisp, that I would almost swear they had been completely reanimated this year. I just can't get over how spectacular and new they look! The selection of cartoons does a great job of providing an overview of all the major (and most of the minor) characters - there are many "landmark" cartoons that aren't here, but I'm sure they will be on another set someday. Each of the four discs also has great documentaries - some made a long time ago, and some made specifically for this set, and they are completely full of fascinating facts. There are lots of commentaries, too, though these are the weakest part of the set - most of them just speak generally about the director or animators, but I wish they would talk more specifically about the cartoon itself. On top of all of this, there are also "music only" tracks, which are just amazing to watch and listen to the incredible music timing. What a fantastic set!
