Product Description
Studio: Warner Home Video Release Date: 10/30/2007

The fifth collection of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies continues Warner Bros.' scattershot approach, mixing classics and obscurities. Among the best-known and funniest cartoons are "Ali Baba Bunny" (Daffy yelling, "I'm rich! I'm socially secure!"), "Bewitched Bunny" (Witch Hazel galloping off in a cloud of hair pins), and "Buccaneer Bunny" (a sterling example of one of director Friz Freleng's favorite gags: having the characters run up and down stairs and in and out of various doors). "Gold Diggers of '49" and "Little Red Walking Hood" show Tex Avery beginning to explore the self-reflexive gags that would be become one of the hallmarks of his mature style. In "Walking Hood," Grandma stops the action to answer the phone and place her order with the grocer--including a case of gin. "The Daffy Doc" is Bob Clampett at his most surreal, with Daffy and Porky getting sucked into an iron lung, bulging and shrinking like balloon animals. Some of the earliest cartoons predate the adoption of "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" as the theme song for the Warner Bros. cartoons. Many shorts from the early '30s were built around songs from Warner's musicals: "I've Got to Sing a Torch Song" (written for IGold Diggers of 1933/I) features caricatures of Mae West, George Bernard Shaw, Benito Mussolini, and Bing Crosby frolicking to the title tune. Greta Garbo delivers the closing, "That's All, Folks!" Like the previous four sets, IGolden Collection Volume 5/I comes loaded with extras that range from three WWII films in which Mr. Hook urges sailors to buy war bonds to "Extremes and In-Betweens: A Life in Animation" (2000), a documentary about Oscar-winning director Chuck Jones. Many of these cartoons will have viewers of all ages in stitches. (Unrated, suitable for ages 6 and older: cartoon violence, ethnic stereotypes, mild risque humor, alcohol and tobacco use) I--Charles Solomon/I

I got this for my brother for Christmas. I wasn't sure which volume to get so I took a stab in the dark. Hope he likes it!

I loved Looney Tunes when I was a kid over 40 years ago and my 6 year old son loves them just a much. This is a product worth its weight in gold.


5 out of 5 stars Lighten Up   December 27, 2008
John Ellis (New York, NY United States)
Granted that I would completely reorganize these issues (and the sales would suffer because a smaller number of people would want an entire set of black and white Porgys, etc.) but this in particular is the heart of the Looney Tunes. Clampett, Bugs and Daffy, early Porgys, wartime shorts. I wish all of Clampetts' work was on one set, remarkable stuff, but given the economics I'll take it and say thank you. Particularly as discounted here.


4 out of 5 stars Another great collection from Termite Terrace   December 24, 2008
Christopher Gleason
Sixty more shorts from the vaults at Termite Terrace. Disc 1 focuses on Daffy Duck and my personal favorite, Bugs Bunny. My twins enjoyed Disc 2, fractured versions of Fairy Tales. Disc 3, featuring director Bob Clampett's work and Disc 4 with early Warner Bros. cartoons round out this fine addition to the Golden Collections. br / br /There is really a wealth of material here: twenty shorts with commentaries, several Looney Tunes TV specials, multiple special features and featurettes. If you enjoyed any of the previous collections, you will enjoy Volume Five as well. As someone who grew up with the Looney Tunes, and who has been known to say, a la Bugs Bunny, "of course you know this means war!" on multiple occasions, I loved this set. br / br /The only complaint I have about the Golden Collections is that I would have liked it better if they had collected all of the Warner Bros. cartoon shorts in chronological order, like the recent Three Stooges sets (an example: The Three Stooges Collection, Vol. 1: 1934-1936). Perhaps that wasn't possible given the wide range and long duration of the Termite Terrace gang, but it would have been interesting to see the evolution of their art.


5 out of 5 stars More great historical cartoons.   December 22, 2008

Here we have the 5th volume of fantastic Warner Bros cartoons including those made by Bob Clampett. What is amazing about these cartoons is how historically relevant they are, showing us the the culture of the times with all its warts and charms. The organization of these sets with their focus on either one of the creators or one of the character really adds a lot to appreciating the cartoons. I never knew about Frank Tashlin for instance and learned about him in the earlier volume, while the focus on Bob Clampett in this set allows me to learn about and recognize his unique style while enjoying the classic cartoons I've been watching since I was a kid.
