5.0 out of 5 stars All 46 Goofy cartoons..., August 31, 2002

By 

Gregoriancant (Oregon, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Walt Disney Treasures - The Complete Goofy (DVD)

Here is a list of all forty-six Goofy cartoons--year by year--contained on this new Disney Treasures collection:

1939-"Goofy and Wilbur" (Goofy's first official "solo" short)

1940-"Goofy's Glider" (The first in the long-running "How-to" series)

1941-"Baggage Buster", "The Art of Skiing", "The Art of Self-Defense"

1942-"How to Play Baseball", "The Olympic Champ", "How to Swim", "How to Fish"

1943-"Victory Vehicles" (Could have been released under the delayed "Wartime Cartoons" Disney Treasures collection)

1944-"How to Be a Sailor", "How to Play Golf", "How to Play Football"

1945-"Tiger Trouble", "African Diary", "Californy er Bust", "Hockey Homicide"

1946-"A Knight for a Day", "Double Dribble"

1947-"Foul Hunting"

1948-"They're Off", "The Big Wash"

1949-"Tennis Racquet", "Goofy Gymnastics"

1950-"Motor Mania", "Hold That Pose"

1951-"Lion Down", "Home Made Home", "Cold War", "Tomorrow We Diet", "Get Rich Quick", "Fathers Are People", "No Smoking"

1952-"Father's Lion", "Hello Aloha", "Man's Best Friend", "Two Gun Goofy", "Teachers Are People", "Two Weeks Vacation", "How to Be a Detective"

1953-"Father's Day Off", "For Whom the Bulls Toil", "Father's Weekend", "How to Dance", "How to Sleep" (the last of the "How-to" series made for the big screen)

1961-"Aquamania"

Though this collection is "The Complete Goofy", it would have been nice to include the two cartoons Goofy did with Donald Duck ("No Sail" and "Crazy with the Heat") in 1945 and '47, respectively (probably saved for a later Donald Duck collection in the DT series). Also, "How to Ride a Horse" and "El Gaucho Goofy" (taken from "The Reluctant Dragon" and "Saludos Amigos", respectively) were re-released in an animated short format in the 1950's, but are obviously unnecessary to include in this collection. Goofy also appeared in "Freewayphobia" and "Freewayphobia #2" (both in 1965) which also appears to not be included here (probably because these were educational films produced extensively during this time by the Disney company).

Many of the above-mentioned Goofy shorts contained controversial scenes that have been removed and/or altered by the Disney company in recent years. This collection is promising that they will all be uncut--so let's hope they will be seen the way they were originally seen if only for the historical context. Last year's "Mickey Mouse in Living Color" and "Silly Symphonies" collections lived up to that promise, though the "Disneyland USA" set had some perplexing cuts.

This collection is one of three exciting, new releases this December in the second wave of the continuing Disney Treasures series (and extremely limited edition--125,000 appearing to be made instead of the 150,000 last year). There were supposed to be four releases again this year, but the intended fourth (Disney Wartime Cartoons) was delayed for reasons--as of this writing--unexplained by host/compiler of the DT series, Leonard Maltin.

The other two releases for this year: "Mickey Mouse in Black and White", and "Behind the Scenes at the Disney Studio."

4.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing Menu Options, December 5, 2002

This review is from: Walt Disney Treasures - The Complete Goofy (DVD)

I enjoy the content of this DVD a great deal. Unfortunately, this DVD set leaves off a valuable option available on last year's MICKEY MOUSE IN COLOR and SILLY SYMPHONY compilations--the ability to "view all" with a single command on the menu. Instead, viewers will have to manually choose each cartoon, one at a time. I hope that Disney will reconsider in determining the playback options in future short feature compilations.

5.0 out of 5 stars Be Wary Buyers, February 20, 2006

This review is from: Walt Disney Treasures - The Complete Goofy (DVD)

This is an excellent product as the other reviews suggest, but be wary of purchasing from the second hand sellers...They are overcharging for a product still available through the Disney Video club...I just purchased my brand new dvd for 29.95 from the club, February 2006. Yes, you have to join, but at least you will have product to equal the high price...100 dollars can buy you 3 other vids...I shake my head at this.
