DVD Reviews of Walt Disney Treasures - The Complete Pluto, Volume One
DVD Review: Disney at its best
Summary: 5 Stars
When paired with Volume 2, this set provides you with some really good quality Disney cartoons. My family and I will put a disc in and just let it play. The kids laugh all the way through. I own other Disney Treasures sets and would highly recommend them to any cartoon lover.DVD Review: my son adores it
Summary: 5 Stars
60 years later it is still as fresh, as fun, as relevant as it ever was!
my son and i watch it together and it is just as fun and just as much laughs each time.
as opposed to goofy, pluto has "play all" option - hassle-free and user friendly (from where i stand, anyway).
we own both 1 and 2 and we love them!!
DVD Review: Awesome DVD, Poor Delivery
Summary: 1 Stars
I am not going to comment on quality of the DVD - it is ***GREAT***, enough said.
I would like to warn about what you just may get.
Disney Treasures come in tin boxes. These days Amazon is not capable of delivering them without damage.
If you getting this product as a gift, or as a collector's item, or simply like to receive your buys in mint condition - shop elsewhere.
I had to return Pluto DVD two times, since every time it came all dented ...only to receive another artfully bent tin, along with cheerful assurances from support that Amazon is trying to do their best.
On a third strike, I give up.
No, I do not make fuss over a slightest ding. Nor it is a single occurrence. Out of 3 delivered Disney Treasures DVDs (Pluto, Donald, Rarities) _not a single one_ came clean.
Whether as a single package, or as a part of a large shipment; whether due to inappropriate packaging (soft envelope), or due to packing-in already damaged tin - result is the same.
Caveat emptor.
DVD Review: Wonderful, Interesting Set
Summary: 5 Stars
I think that Disney has done an excellent job with Pluto Volume 1 and corrected most of the miscalculations that they made in previous sets.
First, they included principal cartoons in Pluto's career that cover cartoons not released under the Pluto banner like "The Chain Gang" (A Mickey Mouse Cartoon), for example. The set also presents a peculiar set of cartoons (The Oscar winning "Lend A Paw", "Canine Caddy", "A Gentleman's Gentleman", and "Pluto and the Armadillo") that are officially Mickey Mouse cartoons. I've seen some of these cartoons presented as either Mickey or Pluto cartoons on both VHS sets and on The Disney Channel.
Second, Disney presents the cartoons in chronological order. I prefer this method over the "Best of" collections that were put forth in Mickey Mouse in B&W Volume 1 and the first Silly Symphonies set. Chronological organization of cartoons can best allow you to notice how a character evolves.
Third, Disney included the PLAY ALL disc option and reduced the number of silly easter eggs. After a long day's work, I would prefer to just click and play rather either skipping from cartoon to cartoon or indulging in some treasure hunt to find a rare cartoon.
Yep. They got it right this time. Let's hope that they finish off this series. This one is the best of WD Treasures collection so far, production-wise in my opinion.
DVD Review: GREAT DVD!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD is great for Adults and Children alike... Filled with hours of Pluto!!
Description of Walt Disney Treasures - The Complete Pluto, Volume One
Mickey's faithful friend Pluto is unleashed in this first volume of the celebrated canine's cartoon capers. Spanning the years 1930 to 1947, these 29 classic shorts include Pluto's 1930 debut in "The Chain Gang" -- which was actually his first and second appearance playing unnamed, identical bloodhounds -- and the 1941 Academy Award(R)-winning short "Lend A Paw." The tales continue with a special "dogumentary" focusing on the birth and evolution of everybody's best friend, an excerpt from the TV program "A Story Of Dogs," a look back at the life of Pluto's father, animator Norman "Fergy" Ferguson, and more. It's no wonder Pluto's star rose faster than his temper.Mickey's pal Pluto developed from the pair of bloodhounds in "The Chain Gang" (1930). Walt Disney liked animator Norm Ferguson's handling of the dogs' expressions, so the artists continued to work with the character. Ferguson's breakthrough animation of the flypaper sequence in "Playful Pluto" (1934), available on Walt Disney Treasures: Mickey Mouse in Black and White, Vol. 2, showed that the cartoon character could think and react to a situation through pantomime. Many cartoons follow the pattern of "Playful Pluto": the ochre dog tries to cope with either a recalcitrant object--skates in "On Ice," an inflatable rubber horse in "Beach Picnic"--or a cute but troublesome animal: a seal in "Pluto's Playmate," a gopher in "Canine Caddy" and the title character in "Pluto and the Armadillo."
Pluto's quick temper and willingness to rush in where pedigrees fear to tread made him a popular subject for cartoons (and military insignias) during World War II. In "First Aiders," Pluto serves as a reluctant subject when Minnie practices splinting and bandaging. Eager to do his bit, he serves as a military watch dog in "Private Pluto," "Dog Watch," and "Canine Patrol." In several of these cartoons, Mickey is reduced to playing straight man to Pluto, who gets the laughs. Pluto is pitted against a black housekeeper, reminiscent of Mammy Two-Shoes in the Tom and Jerry cartoons in "Pantry Pirate"--a rare example of ethnic stereotyping in a Disney short. (Unrated, suitable for ages 5 and older: cartoon violence, occasional ethnic stereotypes) --Charles Solomon
