Customer Reviews of Popeye:75th Anniversary
The Classic Shorts At least someone is trying to get these cartoons to look original. The Paramount logos are on all of them and the ones that didn't haev original complete title cards. they used the later Famous music with the vintage Paramount logo. ON disc two they do have the 1942-43 rarely seen porthole sequence that comes after the Paramount logo [but they used a 1930s logo to open but they retained the 1942 version at the end].
"Viewer from Apalachicola" is wrong, wrong, wrong!
I think the fact that there are TWO "75th Anniversary" compilations is confusing people. The other one, from Koch, I have not seen, but I have not seen a single positive word written about it.
THIS collection, from VCI, is the real thing! Disc 1 features 9 cartoons from the Max Fleischer era, including the three famous long color features, and they've never looked better. Disc 2 features 25 cartoons from the Famous Studios era of the '50s, and while they can't hold a candle to the earlier Fleischers, they are still worthwhile. Add a commentary by historian Jerry Beck, and you have a package worth every penny of its reasonable price.
I hope "Apalachicola" purchases THIS compilation and retracts his/her earlier review.
Worth the price for Disk #1
I really have no interest in the Famous Studios cartoons from the 1950s that fill Disk #2 in this set, but the 1930s Fleischer cartoons on Disk #1 are worth every penny of the asking price. These are still not "offical" (i.e., remastered) releases, but the three Technicolor cartoons -- "Sinbad", "Alladin" & "Ali Baba" -- look much, much better than any other home video releases I have seen. Finally these color masterpieces can be enjoyed in something close to their original splendor!
