Summary: No Colorization!
Review: Don't buy this junk, say NO to colorization! Please, nyuk, nyuk, just say NO! BLACK AND WHITE ONLY! Don't fall for this colorized crap. The colors will NOT be accurate! Boycott this one!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Sony lies about color research.
Review: In the old days of B&W cinematography, off colors such as Green & Purple would be used together because they looked right in B&W. If Sony is doing the historical research they claim for color accuracy, these would be the odd color combinations we would see. Instead, they will be giving us their interpritation of the styles of the day.

My question is: Will the B&W presentations be true B&W or just mono-chromatic (no color) viewings of the colorized versions? If it is just mono-chromatic, the grey tones could look very different than the original un-altered B&W grey tones.

Now, they must think we fans are just Stooges and will not notice the duplication of titles from previous DVD releases. We are basically getting one (1) new DVDs worth of titles on two (2) DVDs for the price of two (2). This reminds me of the old Laserdisc release SNAFU, when Volume 3 was released with only three titles and those same 3 titles were in the last half of Volume 2!

We know who the real Stooges are, the executives at the Columbia/Tristar home video division of Sony Pictures.

Come on, even Ted Turner knows that Colorization is dead today! It does not improve the movie. It has been a decade since I have even heard the word mentioned. It is a forgotten technolocical FAD!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Why All The Negative Reviews?
Review: This hasn't come out yet and people are starting to make all sorts of negative comments. Maybe the Colorization looks good. You'll never know until you actually buy it and watch it. Until then, refrain from the negative comments. Columbia is working very hard on these shorts in order to give the shorts good restoration and good color. Watch it before making any sort of negative comments. And, let me remind you. EACH DVD HAS THE BLACK AND WHITE ORIGINALS ON IT!! So, stop complaining. If you hate the colorized version, don't watch it. Watch the black and white version. That's why Columbia provided both. If it costs too much, well too bad. Don't buy it, simple as that.
