DVD Reviews of 150 Cartoon ClassicsDVD Review: Watermarked and cropped to letterbox (4:3) Summary: 2 StarsSome of the films are watermarked with an ugly logo (imo a sacrilege). Also all films have been chopped and cropped to fit the standard 4:3 letterbox-TV.
I find the selection of films a little strange. Wasn't this supposed to be classics? Of course Betty Boop and Popye can be called classics, but there's some obscure stuff in there, including clay animations(!). Early clay animations may of course be of interest to many, but it was certainly not something I expected, and I don't think you can call the clay animations *cartoon* classics.
DVD Review: Giggles Summary: 4 StarsI purchased this tape for the little kids next door and it was fun listening to them giggle and watching them dance.
DVD Review: It should get no stars,but that is not an available option here. Summary: 1 StarsIt took some doing but the ocean county library system tracked this down for me..I thank them for going to all of that trouble,even if,in the end,it was a complete waste of time and effort..The cartoons here are old,out-dated,some of them so badly "mastered" as to be pathetic.Sure,there is a market out there for old Betty Boop and suchlike things,but except for the nostalgia factor these cartoons have not,for the most part,held up..The Disney classic animated tales,like Snow White,Cinderella,Peter Pan and the rest are timeless,while most of these are timeworn..Now I KNOW that the fans of these old and sadly lacking items will climb all over me for saying that you should avoid this and other similiar collections,but so what?People collect beer cans,pet rocks,bottle caps even balls of string,so why not collect and celebrate old,worn out,boring cartoons from way,way back in the day?To each his/her own,but,really,these things are not for the mainstream..Even my grandchildren grew bored quickly,which should tell you something.
DVD Review: Details provided for all cartoons Summary: 4 Stars150 CARTOON CLASSICS, along with the ULTIMATE 150 CARTOON FESTIVAL, were MCE's original jumbo animation DVD sets. These two multi-packs have been neatly combined (with an attractively designed heavy paper oversleeve) into the AMAZING 300 CLASSIC CARTOON COLLECTION.
Video dubs on "150 Cartoon Classics" vary from very good quality to barely fair. There's no evidence here of digital enhancement. Some shorts are taken from 16mm b&w prints once sold for home use, even though the originals were in color. One example is "Jingles" (it's actually "Mendelssohn's Spring Song" -- "Jingles" being the series name). Although b&w here, this was originally in "Brewster Color." Audio is generally clear, however a few titles have unsynched sound and picture. Also, MILL CREEK flashes their logo on-screen for several seconds midway through each short.
Betty Boop is most plentiful in this collection, followed by Popeye and The New 3 Stooges. Less-common cartoons include works from Britain, France and Canada. Studios represented: AUDIO PRODUCTIONS, BREWSTER, CAMBRIA, CORNELL, FAMOUS, FLEISCHER, HALAS & BATCHELOR, JEFFERSON, LANTZ, NEW WORLD, PIED PIPER, POWERS, SOFAC, SULLIVAN, TERRYTOON, VAN BEUREN and WINKLER.
FAMILY CLASSICS 100 Movie Pack (also from MILL CREEK) is an excellent motion picture supplement to this MCE DVD.

DVD Review: Worth every penny! Summary: 5 StarsI found this gem in Walmart's $5 bin and bought it on a whim. I am old enough to remember when they still showed these cartoons on tv. Alot of these are politically incorrect, crude by today's crystal clear 1080p cgi standards but imho had more heart than stuff i see on tv today. For the price you really can't afford not to have this archive of cartoons your children might otherwise never get to see and reminisce the past yourself. Really hard to complain about the quality of 1930's cartoons on a $5 dvd so i really don't understand some of the bad reviews here and to the person who claimed that "EVERY TOON HAS BIG UGLY COMPANY LOGO" i have to disagree. My copy has the company logo when the dvd first starts but definitely not on every or any of the cartoons.
