Product Description

Fun with The Three Stooges in six zany episodes:

Boobs in Arms (1940): The troops on both sides are in real trouble when Moe, Larry and Curly are enlisted by a jealous husband who also happens to be a sergeant. "Friendly fire" takes on a whole new meaning as they attempt to defend themselves with a canister of laughing gas and their plan backfires.

Back From the Front (1943): After merchant mariners Moe, Larry and Curly mistake a torpedo for a whale and accidentally cause it to explode, they find themselves cast away at sea in a lifeboat...until they board a Nazi warship and make an even bigger mistake.

G.I. Wanna Go Home (1946): When Moe, Larry and Curly are dis-charged, they go from bunkers to bunk beds upon learning that they now have no home and there are no vacancies to be had anywhere. With their fiancees, they move into a vacant lot and make the most of it, until a farmer forces them to move on.

Wee Wee Monsieur (1938): They’ll always have Paris...even if Paris wouldn’t have them! Moe, Larry and Curly are having a hard time making it as artists, which means they have no means to pay for rent or food. An assignment with the French Foreign Legion might be just the solution.

No Dough Boys (1944): Mistaken for Japanese saboteurs after posing in make up to look like Japanese soldiers for a magazine ad, Moe, Larry and Curly decide to stay undercover and fight the high-ranking German spies into whose hideout they’ve stumbled.

Dizzy Pilots (1943): It seems nothing goes right when Moe, Larry and Curly attempt to prove to the military that they can fly their airplane, the Buzzard. But it’s not only their egos that are inflated, and Moe appears headed for a crash landing.

2.0 out of 5 stars Contains Very Weak Shorts., August 1, 2002
A Kid's Review
I am a very big stooge fan. Therefore, I have seen every short, especially the Curly ones. The shorts contained in this collection are:

1) Boobs In Arms (1940)
2) Back From The Front (1943)
3) G.I. Wanna Home (1946)
4) Wee Wee Monsieur (1938)
5) No Dough Boys (1944)
6) Dizzy Pilots (1943)

In my opinion, "Back From The Front", "Wee Wee Monsieur", and "No Dough Boys" are weak shorts. And another thing, when you see the cover of this DVD, you will notice a typo. The title is "G.I. Wanna Home", NOT "G.I. Wanna Go Home". There is no "Go" in the title. That is such a common error. I don't understand why it is that diificult to get a simple title right.

1.0 out of 5 stars Columbia Is Becoming Very Lazy!, September 3, 2002
A Kid's Review
Ok, a new 3 stooges DVD from Columbia. All shorts in this collection are Curly. NO Shemp in this collection. First off, all 6 shorts on this DVD fit the theme "G.I. Stooge" perfectly. But it is funny how Columbia chose to put the shorts `Boobs In Arms' and `Dizzy Pilots' on the same DVD, considering that they both contain the same army footage. They should have just used `Boobs In Arms', since that was made first, and replace `Dizzy Pilots' with another G.I. short like `Half-Shot Shooters'. And one more thing. A common error has occurred and Columbia seems to have used it. Look at the cover of this DVD. Do you see a short called `G.I. Wanna Go Home'? Well that is wrong. The correct title is `G.I. Wanna Home'. It's funny. When Columbia released this title on VHS, they had it correct. Why on earth would they choose to make this error on a DVD cover? I know. It's laziness. Columbia has got to wake up.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not As Bad As Everyone Says It Is..., October 22, 2002
By Chuck Potocki (Highland, Indiana) - See all my reviews
I agree with what many people have said that Columbia Pictures could be handling the Stooges DVD releases better than they have been recently. Someone hit the nail on the head with the suggestion that Columbia should release the shorts in some sort of order (chronological, by films featuring the "Third Stooge", etc) instead of releasing them with a running "theme".

In my opinion, the overall quality of "G.I. Stooge" is not as bad as people have said, although I do agree that Columbia should be taking more care and paying more attention to the quality on future releases. Some of my all-time favorite shorts are on this disc, including the seldom-seen "No Dough Boys"; while this film doesn't rank amongst their best, it still has much of the Stooges' sardonic humor, particularly in their portrayal here of Japanese soliders. Moe is VERY convincing in this role, both in appearance and dialect; rather unheard of for a film to be released while the country was at war with Japan at the time!

While I'm a big fan of the older shorts featuring Curly, I agree with everyone who commented that Columbia should also release more (but preferably all) of the films featuring Shemp and especially Joe Besser. To many, Besser may not have been very "Stooge-like", but that doesn't mean he wasn't funny; some of my favorite Stooge episodes are with Besser. I think he more than deserves a fair shake!

I enjoyed this DVD, as I'm sure many Stooge fans will! It also wouldn't hurt for every Stooge fan to tell Columbia Pictures what you think and what you want to see in the future; there's always strength in numbers, and persistence DOES pay off. If they receive enough comments/complaints, they'll get the message.
