This review is from: Popeye the Sailor: 1930-1960 (Enhanced Edition) 2 DVD Set (DVD)

(...). The BW cartoons look really bad with flickering, image bouncing up and down and compression artifacts. The color ones are no better than other cheap DVD's I've seen. Like this is not enough, the second disk is skipping in 3 different players.

The icing on the cake is that this "enhanced" version is BURNED on regular DVD-R's, not stamped as one would expect a commercial DVD to be.

What a dissapointment ....

This review is from: Popeye the Sailor: 1930-1960 (Enhanced Edition) 2 DVD Set (DVD)

I have to agree with the other reviews already posted on this product.
This DVD set is a dream, come true for any fan of Popeye the Sailor or vintage animation for that matter.

Watching these early cartoons is always so nostalgic. It takes you back to when times were simple and the "Moral of the Story" was simple and to the point.

Fleischer Studios did a great job with taking everyday ideas, commonalities & life lessons and incorporating them into their wonderful vintage animation. Not just with Popeye the Sailor but with all their cartoons (Betty Boop, Superman, etc...)

If you want a great sampling of where Popeye the Sailor has come from and where he ended up, this is the DVD set for you.

This review is for Popeye the Sailor: 1930-1960 (Enhanced Edition) 2-DVD Set.

The 9 black & white and 10 color episodes look stunning on my HDTV. These 19 episodes could very well be the best compilation of Popeye the Sailor I have ever seen.

This set contains two awesome Bonus Features. The first bonus is two of the three Technicolor specials, Popeye Meets Ali Baba's 40 Thieves and Popeye Meets Sinbad the Sailor. The second is "Let's Sing with Popeye", an early Popeye cartoon where we meet him on deck singing his song.
