REVIEW:
One shouldn’t simply dismiss this DVD as a rehash from the Looney Tunes Golden Collection, particularly as there aren’t any featurettes, old television specials, etc. included. Instead, it’s really a bare-bones disc where viewers will get exactly what they paid for — the magic of fifteen vintage Looney Tunes from the 1940’s and 1950’s. Unquestionably, Feline Fwenzy is a real treat for kids of all ages. Warner Bros. could have sported an extra or two (i.e. a Sylvester & Tweety Mysteries TV episode), but this DVD certainly whets one’s appetite for a second volume.
Note: Another Looney Tunes Super Stars DVD worth checking out is the 18-cartoon Marsupial Mayhem, starring Sylvester; Sylvester Jr.; and Hippety Hopper (Sylvester’s baby kangaroo nemesis).
BONUS FEATURES:
The dubious extra is a trailer for the live-action Yogi Bear movie.
QUALITY CONTROL:
The standard-format picture quality is excellent, though the aspect ratio supposedly represents the cartoons in their original theatrical form. The main screen is easy to navigate for cartoon selection.
PACKAGING:
The DVD has a firm casing. Its case identifies all fifteen cartoons.
BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING: 10 Stars
