Amazingly great!! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

This has it all, I do not now how we missed it originally , but this is far above most mini series in it's superb quality.
this movie is well written and directed as well as well cast and acted !!
It is a fantasy/ adventure w/ a comedic touch.

I don't want to give away the plot but I must say it will keep you intrigued
throughout.

It is also very visual and I know we here liked it better than The Lion , The Witch and the Wardrobe(Chronicles of Narnia) and Prince Caspian as well.

For the past few years TV has produced better fare than Hollywood...this is a perfect example of that.

You won't regret buying at this great price !!

Editorial Review:

At the edge of the mortal world lies a mystical vortex which leads to the Nine Kingdoms, a fantastic land where fairy tales are reinvented...and not with happily-ever-after results! An evil queen (Dianne Wiest) has just doomed Prince Wendell (Daniel Lapaine) to a life as a dog. His quest to recapture the throne leads him through a portal to the mythical Tenth Kingdon...Central Park! With the help of ordinary mortals Virginia (Kimberly Williams) and Tony (John Larroquette), they battle evil in a parallel universe of vile trolls, goblins and every fairy tale character imaginable. Stunning visual effects and a stellar cast, including Scott Cohen, Rutger Hauer, Camryn Manheim and Ed O'Neill, dominate this epic adventure that will enchant audiences of all ages.

The whodunit format was a daring new frontier for an animated series, but the members of the Mystery Inc. team have grown to become authentic popular-culture icons. To solve their newest mystery - finding the most awesome Scooby-Doo DVD ever, with 25 vintage episodes and snackin? good extras on 4 discs - you need only follow this simple clue: you?re holding it!

Fantastic 2008 Christmas present 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I have received this fantistic Batman DVD set as a Christmas present.

As a child i used to watch Batman - The animated series on TV, although here in Germany the series was never really appreciated by the audience and, sooner than later, got cancelled.

This DVD box is indeed an investment, a positive one by all means.
Once you have opened the box ( it`s like opening a chess board ) you hold a collector`s book in you hands, listing all the content of 17 discs as well as sketches of the producers !

The discs itslf are held within some sort of vhs-like packaging which , however, is still better than the new digipacks because the discs don`t overlap. Instead you can " turn pages " like you use to with a book and access each of the 17 discs separately.
All in all, the package alone is worth the money spent on this set.

Video transfer is still 4:3 and not 16:9 as I had hoped. However this shouldn`t be an issue at all considering the fact that you buy this DVD collection for entertainement, which it is considering the over 35 hours of Batman animation and the clear and crisp DVD picture quality.
Not to mention the 8 in-depth featurettes and many,many other extras on the never-before released bonus disc.

If you are a Batman animated series fan than buy this collection, especially if you`re not living in the USA, because who knows for how long it will still be available.

3 Days - Potty success 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

I popped it in the DVD and my 26 month old son watched it a few times, he danced to the songs and just loved the DVD. The next thing I know, he is in the bathroom wanting to sit on the toilet and flush, flush, flush. Now he can't keep his clothes on and it's his newest obsession to go to the bathroom. I have switched from diapers to pull ups and have not had a wet pullup yet in a week. WAY TO GO ELMO!!!!!

Disappointing 2 out of 5 stars.
5 of 8 people found this review helpful.

I have purchased each volume of the Golden Collection so of course when this one came out I hurriedly ordered it as well.

My goal in buying this collection was to recapture those great cartoons that I watched as a child. Many have since been discontinued or heavily edited on TV, so this was a way of enjoying these classic cartoons from the days before we became so politically correct.

I am not one to expect that every cartoon will be a favorite, but I'll have to say this volume is rather full of filler. All of the classic cartoons on disk 3 are the type you'd find in the discount stores for a dollar a disk and are certainly not what I expected for my money. Those who want the very early cartoon classics with unknown characters might love this collection, but I expected to see Golden cartoons, not ancient ones!

WB could have done much better than this, but I guess they expected die-hard fans like me to buy it anyway. They got their wish, but shame on them for not doing better than this.

Editorial Review:

Here comes the highly-anticipated sixth volume of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection, the studio's largest Looney Tunes compilation of animated shorts to date. Fans won't want to miss this golden opportunity to own over 60 classic, fully re-mastered and restored cartoons, presented in their original un-edited format. Most of the shorts in the collection have never been available on DVD before.

Great Thomas Movie! 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

This is a great movie! Pierce Brosnon is an excellent narrator as well - you can tell he has read these to his children! It is a very good story line about the old town of great waterton, and such great and amazing perils that Thomas goes through. Very exciting and fun.

A good buy for any Thomas Fan 5 out of 5 stars.
2 of 2 people found this review helpful.

I was not that thrilled to buy yet another Thomas movie, but we are Pierce Brosnan fans and my three year old loves Thomas so I wanted to give it a try and I was not disappointed.

That said, I do think the beginning of the movie is a bit off. Mr. Brosnan sounds a bit monotone, but he seems to pick up the pace and after a while you get caught up in the story about the great discovery (finding the town of Waterton). They introduce a new engine named Stanley (so you can add that train to your growing collection) that my son has not stopped talking about since he saw the movie. Also, the Thomas Theme song at the end is updated and is pretty catchy. A good buy for any Thomas fan.

Editorial Review:

Thomas the Tank Engine stars in an all-new movie guest starring Pierce Brosnan as the narrator! Sodor Day is coming and all the engines are busy preparing. When Thomas gets lost in the mountains, he discovers the old town of Great Waterton! Soon the whole island is buzzing with the news of Thomas' discovery and restoring the town in time for the big day. Join the fun and meet a new engine friend named Stanley!

0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Just like season 1, this DVD does not disappoint! It's got great episodes and is fun for the whole family! The extras are a bit sparse, but because there are so many episodes, there are hours of enjoyment either way! For anyone who is a true muppet fan, or just looking to reminisce this is a great product!

Editorial Review:

And now a show that needs no introduction, but here's one anyway... Go bonkers with Beaker, goofy with Gonzo and join the brave cast of "Pigs In Space" for one of the most revolutionary and acclaimed shows in the history of television. Garnering an Emmy® Award for Outstanding Comedy-Variety or Music Program in its hilarious second season, THE MUPPET SHOW redefined prime time and showcased a host of outrageous guest stars, including Steve Martin, Peter Sellers, Elton John, Julie Andrews and more. Experience all 24 episodes from Season Two – digitally remastered and restored – in this special 4-disc DVD set. With hours of bonus features, including THE MUPPETS VALENTINE SPECIAL and rare archival footage, THE MUPPET SHOW is even better than you remember!

The Merry-Go-Round Breaks Down! 3 out of 5 stars.
2 of 3 people found this review helpful.

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.

Editorial Review:

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

Short And Sweet 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Kids just love Elmo, no matter how much adults may not feel the same way, though I do admit I am somewhat entertained by him. But my son (2-1`/2) absolutely loves him, so that is what really matters. I try to limit television/video time and a one or two 1/2 hour breaks during the day and this is a good DVD for those times - you usually cannot go wrong with CTW.

Great songs! 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Our 2 year old loves this dvd, and we secretly do too, the songs are really catchy and we find ourselves singing them all the time. 5 Jive is so funny, total MC Hammer-like.

Will want to see over and over! 5 out of 5 stars.

I had the this on VHS for my older sons. My youngest son loves it and asks for "Elma" repeatly throughout the day. I also purchased Elmo's World dvds, but he MUCH prefers this one. If you only get one Elmo dvd, make it this one!

Needs more music..... 4 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

What kid doesn't love Elmo? I could take him or leave him but my son seems to think he's great. This video is OK but I think they could have fit more songs into it. Get rid of the pointless Whoopi Goldberg and Julia Roberts segments (my son gets scared of the Julia Roberts part for some reason)---it's Elmo trying to scare Julia and I think my son gets scared......Other than that....is this really the 'best' of Elmo? I don't know......

What we've got here are three fantastic holidays 5 out of 5 stars.
0 of 0 people found this review helpful.

Tese are some of the best animated TV specials that have ever aired on television. Garfield, Odie, and Jon are here to celebreat Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. "Garfield's Halloween Adventure" is my personal favorite out of three of them, because it's sometimes unusually creepy for a Garfield cartoon. "A Garfield Christmas" is a fan favorite, because it contains lots of dramatic material (and Pat Carroll as Grandma!). "Garfield's Thanksgiving" is a bit weaker compared to Halloween and Christmas, but it's still good entertainment nonetheless. So the next time these three holidays are around, I'll be watching these cartoons for sure!
