Description
They're the crown princes of animation. They're the international ambassadors of cartoon comedy. They're the fabulously funny friends you grew up together with! And now, 56 of the very excellent animated shorts starring the very wackiest Warner Bros. cartoon characters have been rounded up on DVD for the first time ever in The Looney Tunes Golden Collection! Just barely contained in four exclusive edition discs, every specially selected short has been brilliantly restored and re-mastered to its original, uncut, anvil-dropping, laughter-inducing glory! Featuring some of the very earliest, ground-breaking on-screen looks of many all-time Looney Tunes favorites, it's an exceptional celebration for cartoon-lovers eager to re-exist the heady, hilarious, golden age of Warner Bros. animation! Sparkling together with one unforgettable, landmark animated marvel afterwards another, there's this icon of carrot-crunching aplomb, Bugs Bunny, in a dazzling assortment of his very excellent classic shorts. In addition highlighted in their own delightfully zany series of cartoon gems: the ever-flustered Daffy Duck and eternal straight-man Porky Pig. In addition, all the rest of the beloved Looney Tunes lineup starring in some of the much wildly imaginative cartoon shorts ever created! Counting an array of special bonus DVD features from expert commentaries to insights into the evolution of these classic characters, this is the ultimate animated experience for anyone who's ever thrilled to the timeless query: "Ehhh? what's up, Doc?"
For years, animation buffs have waited impatiently for the Warner Bros. cartoons to be visible 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 afterwards the excellent ones were created, they remain the quintessential Hollywood cartoons: brash, quick-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 together with this set. Although the erratic selection consists of many classics, purists will argue (correctly) this it proposes 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 concerning omissions and biases when the discs propose outstanding, uncensored prints of some of the funniest films ever made in the U.S.--or anyplace else. (Rated G, suitable for all ages: cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon

Customer Reviews
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Thank's Warner Brothers For Leaving These Untouched.   2010-08-24
By Armchair Pundit (Durham City, England.)
Madcap, zany, and many other adjectives, and all utterly hilarious. Oh Sylvester when will you ever learn to leave Tweety alone.
This collection is packed with characters that still enchant children (and me) even in these cynical times. The loads of extras were a nice touch I didn't expect. I also wanted to purchase MGM's Tom & Jerry and Mr Magoo, but after hearing the PC police have been interferring with them, they will not now be purchased, damn shame.
I despise PCism, it's wrong to thrust our 21st century sensibilites onto earlier documents that reflect a different age and viewpoint, it smacks of arrogance that we are right and they were wrong. Artistic expression should be regarded as sacrosanct, not something that is allowed to be interfered with when morals and mores change.

Anyway, there's more laughs in one of these ten minute cartoons then in a whole series of sitcoms.

Exactly what I wanted. I wanted to share memories of my Saturday mornings with my children. It's perfect. And the price is better on Amazon.com than retail.

I don't think they could have made Golden Collection (6 sets: 1-6) any better!
PLEASE come out with more as a good sized collector's sets! there are 1,001 cartoons from 1929-1969 & we need to have this preserved & out for us to enjoy!

One of the best purchases of the year! The characterizations of Hitler and Stalin are priceless. I love the opening apology - "they weren't appropriate then, and they aren't appropriate now." Either way, hilarious all the way. Looney Tunes rocks!!

After receiving an email on 4/30 that my item shipped, I finally requested a return on 5/12. I never received the product. At least my account was credited for the refund.
