Amazon.com:
The fifth collection of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies continues Warner Bros.' scattershot approach, mixing classics and obscurities. Among the best-known and funniest cartoons are "Ali Baba Bunny" (Daffy yelling, "I'm rich! I'm socially secure!"), "Bewitched Bunny" (Witch Hazel galloping off in a cloud of hair pins), and "Buccaneer Bunny" (a sterling example of one of director Friz Freleng's favorite gags: having the characters run up and down stairs and in and out of various doors). "Gold Diggers of '49" and "Little Red Walking Hood" show Tex Avery beginning to explore the self-reflexive gags that would be become one of the hallmarks of his mature style. In "Walking Hood," Grandma stops the action to answer the phone and place her order with the grocer--including a case of gin. "The Daffy Doc" is Bob Clampett at his most surreal, with Daffy and Porky getting sucked into an iron lung, bulging and shrinking like balloon animals. Some of the earliest cartoons predate the adoption of "The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down" as the theme song for the Warner Bros. cartoons. Many shorts from the early '30s were built around songs from Warner's musicals: "I've Got to Sing a Torch Song" (written for Gold Diggers of 1933) features caricatures of Mae West, George Bernard Shaw, Benito Mussolini, and Bing Crosby frolicking to the title tune. Greta Garbo delivers the closing, "That's All, Folks!" Like the previous four sets, Golden Collection Volume 5 comes loaded with extras that range from three WWII films in which Mr. Hook urges sailors to buy war bonds to "Extremes and In-Betweens: A Life in Animation" (2000), a documentary about Oscar-winning director Chuck Jones. Many of these cartoons will have viewers of all ages in stitches. (Unrated, suitable for ages 6 and older: cartoon violence, ethnic stereotypes, mild risqué humor, alcohol and tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

1 out of 5 starsDO NOT BUY VOLUME 5!!!!! ^
This collection of Looney Tunes is proof that Warner Bros just doesn't care any more! I bought this collection from Amazon, after buying all the rest. I thought it would be up to the standards of the others. When I tried the discs (as I always do before leaving ratings and reviews), I found that disc 3 did not work. I contacted the seller, who was nice enough to replace it immediately. The replacement did not work either!

The seller then contacted other sellers, and found that they have all had problems with disc 3 not working for buyers. Come on, Warner, how hard would it be to test a few of these to make sure they all work? Will there be a recall, and will they replace any disc 3 sent in to them? I really doubt it.

Do not reward Warner Bros for their shoddy production quality. Unless you want to just view 3 of these discs instead of the whole set, I would reccommend skipping this one unless you can guarantee that the company has fixed the problem for sure. Disc 3 is the one with Daffy Duck, so if you don't like Daffy, it might be a good buy!

By the way, I got lucky and had a great seller who refunded cost for this bad set.



4 out of 5 starsreally enjoy seeing the old cartoons ^
This is our 5th now of this collection. The kids love watching the old looney tunes and it is pretty funny to watch and remember them again. As a reminder, there are definitely violent and non-PC cartoons here - might be worth watching WITH the kids to discuss appropriate methods of problem solving and why we don't make fun of people of other races anymore. Still, mostly very funny.



5 out of 5 starsIdiots make me mad! ^
Don't listen to nitpickers who tear apart a lot of hard work--this is hardly a "sleazy" attempt by the evil Warner bean-counters to "unload" black and white or substandard cartoons. This is a labor of love designed to get every cartoon out to the adult collector. If you don't like it, you're a trash-talking flame-thrower who wouldn't understand a conversation about finger painting, let alone art.
If you like the Warner Brothers cartoons, you'll be picking up EVERY set--and they all have hits and misses.



5 out of 5 starsLooney Tunes classics ^
Excellent. We purchased this collection for our 5 month twins they can sit and watch for a while the color, music and sounds they love!



5 out of 5 stars"Hassaaan chop!!" ^
This collection is one of the best ones out of the series. Watching these old classic cartoons took me back to those Saturday mornings that I spent as child, watching Looney Tunes, wrapped up in my favorite blanket eating a bowl of my favorite cereal. Even today Bugs and the gang still make me laugh. They don't make cartoons like this anymore.
