3.0 out of 5 stars Cartoon Craze DVDs should not be ridiculed, May 25, 2006

By	Big Country Fan - See all my reviews

It sounds like either the other reviewer needs to check the color settings on his TV or his copy is a dud. My copy looks and plays just fine. There is only one downfall to this DVD, though: If you have copies of the Popeye DVDs from Goodtimes, I wouldn't give this DVD of Popeye too much thought, for a third of the cartoons are from VHS copies of them. Here are the cartoons from Goodtimes that are on here:

A Haul In One
Cookin' With Gags
Insect to Injury
Gopher Spinach
Shuteye Popeye

The other Popeye and Van Beuren cartoons have not been touched (no new sound effects). The audio on the title cartoon drags, so if you want a good copy of "Popeye Meets Ali Baba's Forty Theives", I suggest trying to find the blue and green-labeled two-hour Popeye DVD from Genius Products (has drawing of Popeye's head on the front); the copy on there is a well-restored, original Paramount Pictures copy (no A.A.P card in sight).
Overall, this DVD of Popeye is not too bad. But what can you expect for a DVD that is only $1?! I have a small collection of Cartoon Craze DVDs that are of excellent quality; half of the cartoons don't even look like they came from VHS copies. Other than the Goodtimes copies of Popeye, I suggest getting this cheap disc and keeping it until you can find better.

1.0 out of 5 stars Popeye to be restored in 2007 by Warner Brothers!, June 9, 2006

By	Paul J. Mular (San Carlos, CA USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

In general I like the Digi-View Cartoon Craze DVDs. You usually get rare obscure cartoons in presentable, if not good, condition for generally a dollar.

But when it comes to Popeye, I must tell everyone that Warner Brothers is gotten the rights to restor the classic B&W and Color theatrical Popeyes from 35mm master negatives for a 2007 release. So wait for that release.

1.0 out of 5 stars DO NOT BUY THIS!!!, April 8, 2006

By	RHCountess "Maggie" (San Jose, CA USA) - See all my reviews

I bought 5 dvds from another vendor, including this same dvd. I remember years ago reading something about poor color quality from these overseas dvds. But at $1 each - I thought I would give them a shot since my grandson was coming to visit. These are made in China and the color is HORRENDOUS. Tons of red dominating and blues are purple. I am going to complain to the store that stocked these for sale. These dvds are made by DIGIVIEW ENTERTAINMENT.
