Looney Tunes: Golden Collection, Vol. 6 The final in a great series – Ski Winters – Ogden, UT USA
This is the last in a great series of digitally restored Looney Tunes cartoons. It is very unfortunate that the series is ending since there is a lot of additional material that could be added to the series. The originality and depth of these cartoons cannot be matched by today’s standards of animation. The freedom of expression was unlimited and the humor was not age specific. Gone is the golden age of the real cartoon, never again to grace the silver screen (or tv) in the current polarized arena of political correctness. Amazon sold this set for a very attractive price when compared to the suggested retail price sold by others. The free shipping for orders over was also very appealing.
I have read all of the reviews for this product after viewing this collection. I do have all six collections now, and I am forced to agree with many of the reviewers who stated that Warner Brothers have only themselves to blame if these collections are not selling well enough to continue the series. I am obliged to believe that whoever is in charge of designing or arranging these collections either never watched them growing up or really has no idea and cares less about what the majority of fans want to see in these collections. Disc 1 is a catch all of most of the major characters, although again I am forced to agree with many who point out that Foghorn Leghorn and Yosemite Sam have been poorly represented in this series. Disc 2 is a collection of WWII propaganda cartoons that haven’t been featured in previous collections, and frankly it is hit amd miss on this disc. Disc 3 is the biggest waste of space I have seen yet in any of these collections – all Bosko, Buddy, or Beans, none of which are Looney Tunes characters in the strict sense, and even the bonus cartoons are a loss. I am hardly a prude in any sense, but I found the World of Leon Schlesinger section (to put it plainly) vulgar in the extreme. Disc 4 is outstanding with many of the most requested miscellaneous shorts featured on this disc. Each disc features either three or four bonus cartoons with those on discs 1 and 4 being the best and some of those on disc 2. I did enjoy the featurette on Mel Blanc on Disc 4. Even allowing for the fact that by this time all the cherries have probably been picked, this collection would have been improved by putting more of what the fans want in it instead of putting out what WB evidently wanted to put out. More people will buy your product if you give them what they want, as opposed to what you want to sell. I think Looney Tunes are part of many people’s pasts that they wish to retain and remember, and I think not only WB but all those who release classic TV programs and movies on DVD would do well to remember that. This collection is a good collection for those who want to have some of their favorite cartoons in their library, but it is not the best one by a long shot. LOONEY TUNES: We’ve saved the best for last… more of your favorite Looney Tunes…your wish is our command. The concluding release from the Golden Collection Series is a 4-disc set with 60 more of the most looneytic Looney Tunes ever unleashed. Plus, 15 bonus shorts to make this the biggest collection of Looney Tunes ever! Indeed, some have never before been on home video! Fifteen cartoons dating from World War II give Volume 6 of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection more focus than previous sets. Many of the 1940’s cartoons remain very funny. Bugs Bunny dresses up as Brunnhilda and rides in to the strains of “Tannhauser” in “Herr Meets Hare” (1945), a gag Chuck Jones re-used to greater effect in “What’s Opera, Doc” a dozen years later. In “Russian Rhapsody” (1940) some of the gremlins who sabotage Hitler’s bomber are caricatures of the Warner Bros. artists. Chuck Jones appears as a chunky, pinkish-tan homunculus swinging a mallet; Friz Freleng is a little green man with a saw-like nose. Younger viewers may find the references to wartime shortages puzzling–or fail to recognize the caricatures of Hermann Goering, Hideki Tojo and Joseph Stalin. Some of the other cartoons can still bring down the house, including “Satan’s Waitin’” (1954), in which Sylvester manages to lose all nine of his lives in pursuit of Tweety, and “Bear Feat” (1949), another exercise in futility for Jones’ Three Bears. The early musicals featuring Bosko, Foxy (or Freddy Fox) and Buddy have not aged well. Created by Hugh Harman and Rudy Ising, these characters were modeled on Felix the Cat and Mickey Mouse, but lack charm and personality. Some more recent films reveal how social attitudes have changed. “Wild Wife,” a spoof of a suburban housewife’s tribulations, may have seemed hilarious in 1954; today, it’s just a laundry list of sexist gags. Like the previous installments, Volume 6 comes loaded with extras. The rarest are five shorts Friz Freleng directed at MGM in 1938. Producer Fred Quimby lured Freleng away from Warner Bros.–only to insist he adapt the comic strip “The Captain and the Kids,” Rudolph Dirks’ version of “The Katzenjammer Kids.” Freleng correctly predicted the films would flop as the characters were “the meanest little bastards in the world,” and soon returned to Warners.

Grease 2 Watch it for Max and a few fun scenes.. any Grease fan must at least watch it once! – mom2twoboys – VA
Okay, Maxwell who plays the male lead role is DEVASTATINGLY hot in this movie.
Michelle is cute, at times very sexy, but mostly she sticks out as a superstar in a three star movie..too old to be a high school grad but hot enough to wish she was. So you play along.
The storyline is kind of fun…senior girl wants something more from a boyfriend. (Rather than the TOO DOPEY..and I MEAN STUPID Thunderbirds.) What does she want? A cool rider, a cool guy with a motorcycle.
Well, her guy comes along in an exchange student with a yummy english accent…who is super smart and wants Stephanie…but needs to be cool and have a bike to get her.
I wont spoil anything. The other reviews are right, the opening scene and the end scene are great dances with lots of great timing and very upbeat. Just the teachers/school employees and Frenchie return in this one. You wont find a deep second char like Rizzo here. It’s all about the accent, bowling, really stupid T-birds/Pink Ladies, a fun talent competition and Michelle/Stephanie. That’s it. Still, worth having seen it.
While I enjoyed it the first time, it took me about 10 years to watch it a second time. I enjoyed it with my niece recently and probably wont watch it again unless she does.
This movie was actually good and not as bad as a lot of reviews seem to think. Was it as good as The Original movie.. No it wasn’t but it was still good and I enjoyed it.
The songs may not be 60’s music(the time period of the movie) but they do have a more 80’s music feel to it. The songs were not bad but I do agree could have been better.
The main characters were played by then unknown young actors Maxwell Caulfield and Michelle Pfeiffer. Caulfield who went on be in the Night time soap Dynasty, and Pfeiffer who went on to have a career in the movies. Quiet frankly aside from being in Grease 2 and having a part as Catwomen in Batman 2. I haven’t seen any of her other movies she may have done.
They all so bring back Frenchy (Didi Conn), Eve Arden as Principal McGee,Sid Caesar as Coach Calhoun, Dody Goodman as Blanche Hodel. all who were in the first movie.
If you haven’t seen it , you should at lease once. PARAMOUNT PICTURES: Many familiar faces from the smash hit ‘Grease’ return to the campus, and the new ones are equally memorable in this happy tribute to straight skirts, girl-chasing and young love. It’s 1961, two years after the original Grease gang graduated from Rydell High, and there’s a new crop of seniors. The Pink Ladies and the T-Birds are still the epitome of cool, except that over the summer, something’s happened to Stephanie (Michelle Pfeiffer in her first starring role), the sorority leader. She feels she’s outgrown Johnny (Adrian Zmed), the head T-Bird, and is looking for a new love–one who’s even hotter. Meanwhile, newcomer Michael (Maxwell Caulfield) is smitten with Stephanie, who won’t even notice him. The conflict is on and the Rydell High fun takes off to new heights. Too often, sequels to popular films simply rehash the original film; call it the carbon-copy syndrome. Grease 2 suffers from no such malady, having almost nothing to do with the original film. Sure, it focuses on teens at Rydell High, the imaginary school from the first film, which starred John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John. But other than a few of the teachers, all of the characters are new and so are the songs–and more’s the pity. By the time Grease hit the big screen, it already had had almost a decade as a theatrical musical, more than enough time to hone its mock-rock & roll score. But this sequel, which stars among others a then-unknown Michelle Pfeiffer, Maxwell Caulfield, and Lorna Luft (Judy Garland’s daughter), has music that’s neither fish nor fowl, neither rock nor Broadway. Meanwhile, the plot is a reversal of the first film, in which a cool guy fell for a square girl. In this one, the square is newcomer Caulfield, who catches the eye of tough girl Pfeiffer and her Pink Lady gang. The appearance of such pseudo-stars of the ’50s, like Tab Hunter, is supposed to lend a nostalgic kick, but let’s just say that Grease 2 slides almost instantly into obscurity. –Marshall Fine
