Warner Brothers Home Entertainment Academy Awards Animation Collection - The 15 Winners $14.98 When it has come down to it, Warner Brothers has made large and smaller compilations of their classic Looney Tunes cartoons over the years, as the Golden and Spotlight Collections. While the Golden Collectioons have all been worth the effort and the money to buy, the smaller collections haven't really brought in the die hard fans as well. Now that it is soon time for the Academy Awards, it will be time to see who is the best in animation, and it is most likely Disney's Ratatouille. But back in the 40's, 50's and 60's it was Disney against Hanna-Barbera, Warner Brothers and M.G.M. to see who was the best in shorts. Now Warner Brothers, M.G.M. and Hanna-Barbera have all of their Oscar-Winning cartoons on one DVD compilation. But, does it really say That's All Folks!? Warner Brothers Home Entertainment Academy Awards Animation Collection - The 15 Winners, is a single disc DVD that contains all the Oscar-winning gems from Warner Brothers, M.G.M. and Hanna-Barbera from the golden days of animation. While the single disc shows the winners, it doesn't appeal as the recently issued 15 Winners, 26 Nominations 3 disc DVD set, which includes 42 animated gems and even classic that were released on DVD for the first time. On this smaller version, you mainly get the single disc of gems, most of them are highlighting shorts by Tom & Jerry and Sylvester who won 3 Oscars for Warner Brothers and director Friz Freleng. Still, on this single disc there are a lot of classic here including Birds Anonymous, where Sylvester goes into treatment for his addiction to go after Tweety, Bugs Bunny's only Oscar-winning short, Knighty Knight Bugs, and the controversial The Cat Concerto featuring Tom & Jerry, which was similarly like the Bugs Bunny cartoon Rhapsody Rabbit, and Pepe Le Pew in the Chuck Jones delight For Scent-imental Reasons. The episodes have all been remastered well, but doesn't appeal as much to newcomers to the classic gems of animation today. All in all, Warner Brothers Home Entertainment Academy Awards Animation Collection - The 15 Winners is good for anyone who hasn't seen the great influences of animation today, it just doesn't measure up as well as the 3 disc expanded edition: 15 Winners 26 Nominees, which includes classics that have never made it to home video before like Bugs Bunny's debut in Tex Avery's A Wild Hare, and many other delights to laugh out loud to. As for this single disc set, it truly isn't all folks to stand alone completely for the Oscar these days. Remastering: B+ Price: C Extras: C+ Cover: B- Overall: C 1/2+  Optoma HD65 720p DLP Home Theater Projector $699.99 The picture is excellent... WHEN IT'S WORKING. I have had the projector for 2 months. It has be out of service for half that time. Customer service (which doesn't even give the option to talk to someone on a phone, everything is e-mail) ignores requests. Fair to say that the actual repair time was quicker than e-mail communication leading up to the repair.. They make you pay for shipping... which if you want to insure is costly. Repair worked for about 2 hours then the same error message "fan locked, shutting down" appeared again. I demanded they replace the projector and have heard nothing back as of yet. I would've returned the product had it not barely exceeded the Amazon return period before breaking. Project is unreliable and a total headache. |
