DVD Reviews of Todd McFarlane's Spawn: Animated Collection (4pc)
DVD Review: interesting anime with average picture quality
Summary: 4 Stars
quite interesting anime series from mcfarlane's spawn. no high end quality, but nice to seeDVD Review: One of the Greatest Animated Shows Ever
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember when the Spawn comic first came out when I was in high-school. It was violent, hip, a different breed from the Batmans and Supermans of the world. The animated series is not a straight port of the comic, but a universe unto it's own.
Sure, the basic plot elements remain from the comic, but while the comic focused on the usual action storylines, the animated series is a great character driven drama. While there is plenty of action, it is the characters and story that are the focus of the series.
This remastering of these 18 episodes look great and sound even better with the 5.1 Surround Sound. The special features are decent, but nothing new. With this set, the real treat is the series itself. It's the greatest animated drama-series ever produced, and it is a shame that Todd McFarlane never got to finish his story.
DVD Review: A pleasure
Summary: 5 Stars
Since I saw it - videocassetes! - this is a must. Even if you have all those restrictions (mature and so on) the art is stunning. First season is best. Then better and good. It's innovative. Certain characters (Twitch)are most enjoyable, till the end. The character voices are carefully elaborated. In ten years I have not seen anything like Spawn. Maybe you remember Aeon Flux, which was good. This, with 5.1 Dolby, metallic case, all three seasons, fair price, is splendid. DVD Review: Great!!!!!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great buy, I am a huge spawn fan and I loved watching the comic I read come to life as a cartoon(only if the movie was as good as the cartoon). At $29.99 you can not go wrong!DVD Review: A quality animated show for adults, much improved over the old set
Summary: 5 Stars
I was just a kid when the theatrical "Spawn" movie came out, but even then I could tell that the film just didn't live up to the idea; it was all popcorn explosions and CGI demons, devoid of substance. A few years later, towards the end of high school, I came across the prior boxset release of this show. Knowing it was well-reviewed, I decided to give it a try.
"Todd McFarlane's Spawn" is the opposite of the theatrical film, delving deeply into the psychology of this Hellspawn and his struggle between damnation and redemption. The writing is subversive, alternately witty and utterly creepy; the animation is fluid and richly detailed; the voice-acting superb, with Keith David's Spawn and John Rafter Lee's Jason Wynn as the clear highlights of the cast. Whether you're into comics, fantasy, film noir, or even simply well-written stories, I would recommend giving this show a watch.
And now it's even better on this anniversary box set. In the original release, each season of the show was edited together to form one two-and-a-half hour long movie; this would be daunting under normal circumstances, but for a show this bleak it's quite an achievement to get through. Even worse, the films were presented on both sides of a "flipper" disc, increasing the danger of scratches. Fortunately, this anniversary set presents all 3 seasons broken up into their individual episodes on a one-sided dual-layered disc, making for a much more palatable viewing experience (die-hards need not fear, however -- there's still a "play all" option on the menu). The visuals are improved with truer blacks and more vibrant colors, and the audio has been upgraded to 5.1 surround from Dolby stereo. Extras include commentary tracks from McFarlane on selected episodes, and a handful of featurettes on a fourth disc. All this is included in a very attractive steelbook case featuring the pictured artwork at the top of the Amazon page.
Very highly-recommended for a first-time viewer, and if any owner of the previous set is on the fence about upgrading, I believe that it's more than worth the increased quality and convenience offered in this new set.
