## Description

desertcart.com One of the most innovative studios in the history of American animation, the Fleischer brothers' offered an alternative vision to the increasingly dominant Disney style during the '30s. A well-chosen collection of Fleischer cartoons is long overdue; unfortunately, this collection offers examples of their second-rate work. Betty Boop is represented by the uninspired "Ker-Choo" and two late films, when the cartoon flapper had been turned into a hausfrau. Two "Out of the Inkwell" shorts taken from badly faded prints lack the visual imagination that made the series popular. The saccharine and dreary "Small Fry," "Ants in the Plants," and "It's a Hap Hap Happy Day" exemplify the work the studio did when the Fleischers were under pressure from Paramount to imitate Disney's "Silly Symphonies." The two-reel color "Aladdin" (1939) with Popeye in the title role is a genuine rarity, although it's weaker than the earlier "Sinbad" and "Ali Baba." Despite the blurb on the cover, the first 20-minute "Popeye" film (which was released in 1936, not 1935) was not "the first long form cartoon" by almost 20 years--it wasn't even the first long film from the Fleischers. Winstar needs more careful writers and researchers. Not rated; suitable for all ages; contains minor cartoon violence. --Charles Solomon

Review: SAVE YOUR MONEY - The people have WinStar have done it again. Have they NO shame? Once more, they've dubbed in LOUD, obtrusive sound effects that RUIN the experience of watching great cartoons. And you can't turn 'em off; you are stuck with the sound of a mallet hitting a board every time Popeye takes a step. This collection is a disgrace and should be pulled from the market until somebody with RESPECT for the original animated treasures releases them. I will NEVER purchase another WinStar DVD release.
Review: An excellent collection of the old masters of animation - I have quite a few of these Winstar cartoon collections, so I pretty much know what to expect when I buy one. The cartoons are the real showcase, and I am just happy to have them available. This DVD, however, really took me by suprise. First, the disk offers three sound options to listen to, so you don't HAVE to listen to the "Feel the Sound" version. (I personally like that version, but I know many people do not.) The animated menus are nice, and there is a short little essay on Fleischer Studios history that I found interesting. There is a nice cross-section of Fleischer cartoons, with no duplicates from other collections. It starts out with two "Out of the Inkwell" silent cartoons, "Tantalizing Fly" and "Bubbles," featuring their first character Koko the Clown. These are excellent early examples of rotoscoping and cartoon/live action hybridization. Betty Boop rears her oddly shaped head, first as the girlfriend of Koko in "Ker-Choo" and "More Pep," then stealing the show and bringing in Grampy for "Grampy's Indoor Outing." Popeye's evolution is shown first in a black and white classic, "Little Swee' Pea," and then in the fantastic color cartoon "Aladdin's Wonderful Lamp." (my favorite of the disk.) The Fleisher animals fly arond in "Song of the Birds," "Ants in the Plants," and "Small Fry," and Gabby shows up in "It's a Hap Hap Happy Day." A grand total of 90 minutes of cartoons. Superman is noticably absent, which I thought was fine as he is already well represented on other DVDs. I really hope this DVD represents the future of the Winstar classic cartoon series.
