Summary: Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume Four
Comment: excellant, great to be able to see good old cartoons without hindering our children mind.

Summary: The Merry-Go-Round Breaks Down!
Comment: Volume Four of the "Looney Tunes Golden Collection" is less than golden. A DVD set that wastes an entire disc on Speedy Gonzales - plus another on cats! - should be viewed with careful scrutiny. On the plus side, it's great having a disc devoted to the classic animation of Frank Tashlin. Unfortunately, the Bugs Bunny selections are a mixed bag, with "Operation: Rabbit" and the Oscar-winning "Knighty Knight Bugs" among the few highlights. Despite the generous amount of special features (including the 1975 "Bugs Bunny Superstar" documentary and three Private Snafu shorts), Volume Four lacks a well-rounded display of Warner Bros. cartoon madness.

Comment: Road runner fanatic. This has a full RR/WC disk. My kids love it. First choice when they are sick and need distracted: better than SpongeBob, Pink Panther, Anamaniacs...........

Summary: Looney Tunes - Golden Collection, Volume Four
Comment: Volume four is a slight improvement over volume three in the Looney Tunes Collection. It's a four disc collection with fifteen shorts per disc for a total of sixty cartoons. As in previous sets each disc has a theme. Disc one is "Bugs Bunny Favorites"; Bugs Bunny has been the lead off set in every edition thus far. Disc two is "A Dash of Tashlin" that features Porky Pig. Disc three is "Speedy Gonzalez in a Flash" which features "the fastest mouse in all Mexico". Disc four is "Kitty Korner", a set that features different cats including Sylvester.
As in the other Golden Collections disc one, featuring Bugs Bunny, is the best disc in the set. Many of these are classic Bugs which includes the Academy Award winning "Knighty Knight Bugs".
Disc two which features Porky Pig is the weakest disc in the set. Though Warner Bros. didn't dig into their vaults quite as much in this collection, they have, once again, pulled out some old one for Porky Pig. There are several on the disc that are b&w only.
Speedy Gonzalez is the star of disc three. Speedy was one of Warner Bros. later creations that fared well. Two of the shorts were nominated for Academy Awards but no winners. One short, "The Wild Chase", has Speedy, Sylvester, Road Runner & Wile E. Coyote. There are several shorts from this disc that actually come from the sixties.
Several different cats are featured on disc four. Most of these are Chuck Jones creations; some feature the "cute kitten" which includes the ferocious bulldog who becomes his caretaker.
Warner Bros. hasn't been skimpy with these Golden Collections. The remastering is nothing short of perfect, the bonus features abound & there are some "rare" cartoons that surface in the "From the Vaults" featurettes. One of the primary features is "Bugs Bunny Superstar" which is presented in two parts. It's a good thing that Warner Bros. has given so much attention to these sets because they are expensive. I miss not having more Daffy Duck in a set though & the set of Speedy is just a little too much of him in one shot. I've never been a big fan of Porky Pig either, so disc two is a little too much of Porky for my tastes. All the special features are entertaining, some give very good background information. This is good, not great, collection of Looney Tunes that can be enjoyed by young & old, alike.
But I do have one request for Warner Bros.: Is it possible to have TWO releases a year instead of only one? I know it's good marketing strategy but these cartoons are almost impossible to see anymore unless one has the granddaddy of satellite or cable packages. Looney Tunes & Merry Melodies were the best cartoons ever done & I would love the opportunity of getting more than one set a year.

More Looney Tunes. Your wish is our command. Because in this 4-disc set are 60 more of the most looneytic Looney Tunes ever unleashed on rabbits, pigs, mice or cats. Indeed, some have never before been on home video! Disc 1 features the tall, gray and haresome one. Disc 2 is all pig. Disc 3 is all about Speedy. And Disc 4 is the cats meow. One thing: to watch these, you must be as tall as this sign. Wrong disclaimer. Read the one in the box below. Got the idea? Now have fun
