DVD Review: It's about nyukin' time!
Summary: 5 Stars
For those of us who have spent years waiting and wondering when the great Moe in the sky would hear our prayers, the time has come. Finally we can enjoy all of their shorts and not have to put up with commercials or wait for those New Year's Eve marathons.
Each set covers three years of Stooge history on two discs. There's nothing fancy here, no extra's, no special features, no interviews or commentaries. Which is just fine with me. The Stooges need no garnish.
(Except maybe a celery stick upside the head)
The menu set up on the first collection is a little different then the others, but both formats are simple and straight forward.
It's interesting in the early shorts to see them developing and settling into the characters we would come to know and love. We get to see gag's that would become standards in their infancy. Here are planted the seeds of a million wive's eyerolls and the roots of our childhood desensitization to violence.
But more seriously, there's a reason these guys have been around for over 70 years. There's more here then eye-pokes and face-slaps. There's real talent that was honed for many years on the tough stages of vaudeville. Howard, Fine and Howard genuinely deserve more then a bit of respect for what they achieved. And finally we get a proper testiment to their legacy.
DVD Review: 3 STOOGES VOLUMES 1 THROUGH 3
Summary: 5 Stars
3STOOGES ARE VERY GOOD.HOW MANY VOLUME R THERE?I GOT 3 VOLUME.U GUYS R VERY GOOD AND THE DVDS R SO GOOD.KEEP THEM COMING.DVD Review: THESE "NUCKLEHEADS" NEVER LOOKED SO GOOD!
Summary: 5 Stars
It's about time! The stooges have been restored and released in their original order! This first volume covers the first two years and they look fantastic! I don't think I ever saw these shorts look this good in the past 40 plus years! This set includes some of my favorites, but the first short 'Woman Haters' is only an interesting piece of history and not the same style as the shorts we would come to know and love. You'll notice right away that most of the dialogue is done in corny rhymes! If you've been putting off buying the stooges collections, these are the ones to buy. They aren't waisting any time getting new volumes out either, looks like one every few months, which means fans won't have to wait forever to get them all! So far four volumes have been released. NUK NUK NUK :-DDVD Review: GENTLEMEN PLEASE CONTROL YOUR KILLING INSTINCTS
Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent picture quality. Compared to VHS releases there is no comparison. Very stupid and ridiculous stories and bits are incredibly funny and worth watching over and over again. I'm stunned that nobody was actually killed during the making of these. "Disorder In The Court" is the best. Incredibly goofy dialog; raise your right hand, take off your hat, etc. Truth is stranger than fiction judgy wudgy but ain't no lying this is a great DVD set.
Description of The Three Stooges Collection, Vol. 1: 1934-1936
When The Three Stooges first signed with Columbia Pictures their deal was for one short. 1934's Woman Haters done entirely in rhyme wasn't a huge success but the Stooges hit their stride with their second short Punch Drunks and began to settle into their definitive roles -- Moe as boss Larry the middleman and Curly as their foil.Witness the rise of these comedy icons in this high-spirited collection containing the first 19 Columbia Pictures shorts all of which have been remastered for the best quality picture and sound. You'll experience the eye-pokes face slaps hollow head knocks and knuckle cracks like you've never heard or seen them before. So go ahead nyuck yourself out!Includes:Woman HatersPunch DrunksMen In BlackThree Little PigskinsHorses' CollarsPop Goes The EaselUncivil WarriorsPardon My ScotchHoi PolloiThree Little BeersAnts In The PantryMovie ManiacsHalf-Shot ShootersDisorder In The CourtA Pain In The PullmanFalse AlarmsWhoops I'm An Indian!Slippery SilksSystem Requirements:Running Time: 340 minutesFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre:?COMEDY Rating:?NR UPC:?043396211049 Manufacturer No:?21104Finally, the studio knuckleheads got it right! The way that the Three Stooges have been presented on home video has been a real slap in the face and a poke in the eye to fans. The Stooges have been anthologized, colorized, and public domained. Their shorts have been released and re-released in varying degrees of quality. In the immortal words of Curly, they have truly been victims of circumstance. This two-DVD set, then, is for what Stooge-philes have long been waiting. Spanning the years 1934-36, it presents the first 19 Stooges short subjects chronologically. These shorts hail from the Curly era, which makes them essential. The first, "Women Haters," comes billed as a "musical novelty" and is performed entirely in rhyme. More interesting is that Moe, Larry, and Curly appear as Tom, Jim, and Jack. In the second short, "Punch Drunks," they are again not quite a team, but teaming up to make a boxer out of put-upon waiter Curly. This is the one in which Curly "pops" when he hears "that 'Weasel' tune." And the hits just keep on coming.
Remember the prologue of The Twilight Zone: The Movie, in which traveling companions Dan Aykroyd and Albert Brooks trade favorite "Zones"? Many of the shorts gathered here are the ones most quoted or referenced by Stooges fans, such as "Men in Black," the only Stooges short to be nominated for an Academy Award, and the one with the immortal page "Calling Dr. Howard, Dr Fine, Dr. Howard." "Hoi Polloi" is the first Stooges short to tackle the "environment" vs. "heredity" conundrum by introducing the Stooges to high society, reducing the well-heeled stuff shirts into a slap-happy mob. "Pop Goes the Easel" introduces another recurring theme in the Stooges oeuvre as the boys pose as artists in the art school in which they take refuge from a pursuing cop. This short contains a signature Curlyism, "Look at the grouse," as does "Horses' Collars," in which the mere sight of a mouse completely unnerves Curly ("Moe! Larry! The Cheese!) "Three Little Pigskins" is another mistaken identity gem, as the boys pose as three football players (look for a very young and very blonde Lucille Ball). Like the Little Rascals, the Stooges in these shorts were very much of their Depression-era times, but "Uncivil Warriors," "Restless Knights," and the decidedly un-PC "Whoops, I'm an Indian" get their anachronistic kicks by placing the boys behind enemy lines during the Civil War, in the medieval castle of a kidnapped Queen, and in the Old West. Collectors who have suffered through, say, "Disorder in the Court" on one of those $1 bin Stooges collections will be heartened to know that this set at last does these comedy classics justice. More than 70 years old, and they look better than ever! So spread out and get your n'yucks on! --Donald Liebenson
