Editorial Review: DVD Description: Tom and Jerry Classic Collection 1 includes Tom and Jerry's first outing "Puss Gets The Boot" plus 23 other classics including: The Midnight Snack The Night Before Christmas Fraidy Cat Dog Trouble Puss 'N' Toots Yankle Doodle Mouse Sufferin' Cats The Bowling Alley Cat Fine Feathered Friend The Lonesome Mouse Baby Puss The Zoot Cat The Body Guard Puttin' on the Dog Mouse Trouble The Mouse Comes To Dinner Mouse In Manhattan Tee for Two Flirty Birdy Quiet Please Springtime for Thomas The Milky Waif Trap Happy Synopsis: This collection contains 24 of the best cartoons from the most famous cartoon duo of all time. This collection concentrates on the era when Fred Quimby and the team of William Hanna and Joseph Barbera were the cartoons' producers. To many, this era, 1938-1958, is the golden era of Tom & Jerry's cartoon capers and this is reflected in the quality of the cartoons on this release including their first appearance in PUSS GETS THE BOOT and Academy Award winner's; YANKEE DOODLE MOUSE, MOUSE TROUBLE and QUIET PLEASE. Episodes Include: THE MIDNIGHT SNACK, THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS, FRAIDY CAT, DOG TROUBLE, PUSS 'N' TOOTS, YANKEE DOODLE MOUSE, SUFFERIN' CATS, THE BOWLING ALLEY CAT, FINE FEATHERED FRIEND, THE LONESOME MOUSE, BABY PUSS, THE ZOOT CAT, THE BODY GUARD, PUTTIN' ON THE DOG, MOUSE TROUBLE, THE MOUSE COMES TO DINNER, MOUSE IN MANHATTAN, TEE FOR TWO, FLIRTY BIRDY, QUIET PLEASE, SPRINGTIME FOR THOMAS, THE MILKY WAIF, TRAP HAPPY.

 Rating:  - Pretty Good DVDI must say that I have always been a Tom & Jerry fan, so it was long overdue for me to start owning the collection. I bought Volumes 2 & 3 at the same time as getting this one, and despite any editing and overdubbing, I still enjoy settling down to a couple of hours fun entertainment from these timeless characters. My little toddler son also enjoys the Tom & Jerry cartoons - and it takes a lot to get him to sit still for a few minutes - he really seems to like the mouse character as he ... Read More: Rating: - Great collection, marred by some censorshipThis is a near-complete collection of the early cartoons, which remain timeless classics, with plenty of slapstick humour on offer. I grew up with the original, unedited, T & J cartoons that were broadcast in the UK until 2000, and released on VHS in the '80s and '90s, so it's highly disappointing to see that you can't get some of the originals any more. This otherwise top-notch collection is marred by many PC cuts, most notably the frequent use of the overdubbed version of Mammy ... Read More: Rating:  - Fast paced and excellent!!In an era of pristine CGI animated movies it is great to see something that has aged so well as Tom and Jerry. Now that I have kids of my own I am getting to enjoy these cartoons all over again. They make me laugh out loud and the action makes me cringe at times but it is great fun and a nice contrast to the sanitised plots of modern children's entertainment. My kids adore them and it is nice to see something that maintains its appeal across several generations. I have this DVD as well as volume 2 ... Read More: Rating: - Tom & Jerry, not exclusivly Hanna & Barbera "stuff"In the period between 1941 and 1955 there where at least 2 separate teams at MGM under Quimbys supervision, namely Hanna & Barbera and Tex Avery. It was a steady flow of ideas and cartoonist excahange between the 2 teams. It's quite obvious that Tex Avery had a strong influence on the early Hanna Barbera's use of typical wild Tex Avery gags, giving the early Tom& Jerry a certain Daffy & Elmer or Bugs & Daffy "feel" to them. As can be seen in the later Hanna Barbera movies, they ... Read More: Rating: - I want more!Just received this DVD and now I have the complete collection till date. What can I say about T&J that hasnt been said already?! Just that it will be very hard to find anyone who can say that T&J arent a genius of epic proportions that will always transcend the boundaries of time and age. Its an absolute must for anyone's collection. |
