Summary: The sweetest thing/deal since FREE CONDOMS!
Review: I absolutely adore this collection. Not only do you get volume 1 with four discs, but you get the second volume with four discs also! I haven't gotten to the second volume yet, only because i'm still on the first... and i only got the package from Amazon.com about 4 days ago. It's insane. All the great memories, all the great laughs, and all the great characters intertwined into this little bundle for a super low price. The best price i've seen so far. I've actually calculated the prices of a lot of stores.. including ebay... all retailing around $120 for both volumes. Do the math. I still have the looney tunes tapes my father used to tape for me back in the 80s.. only problem is that it gets a little distorted and he cut out all the "heavy" scenes.. like the goldfish drinking poison after getting a big smooch from the large russian bunny-boo. Classic. But seriously, if you grew up watching Looney Tunes, of if you want your children to experience and enjoy the classical, magical, comical genius of The Looney Tunes, then this deal is a wonderful solution.

Summary: Two Is Better Than One Folks!!
Review: There are just so many people that are really interested in older cartoons again, thanks to their release on DVD. Yet, it is just a shame that cartoons like The Flintstones, The Jetsons, and Johnny Quest aren't on television anymore, in place of more recent hits like Spongebob Squarepants and the animated revival of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Nevertheless, the classic animation is sometimes a whole lot better than what has to be hot right now. One classic case in point is the Looney Tunes cartoons from Warner Brothers. They really have proven to be one of the most influential cornerstones of animation ever. Yet, while many may have forgotten them, the feeling of their animation really goes on well.

The Looney Tunes: Golden Collection 1 & 2, is a double pack of both of the 4 disc DVD volumes of the classic Warner Brothers library. The whole package consists of over 110 deligthful cartoons from characters like Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Wile E. Coyote & Road Runner and many more. The animation on all these cartoons has been remastered very well, except for a few cartoons that were musically remastered in the wrong key. There are just so many wonderful cartoons here, including the legendary cartoons What's Opera Doc?, Deduce You Say where Daffy plays a detective who goes up against The Shropshire Slasher, Whoa Be Gone!, the Bob Clampett masterpiece The Great Piggy Bank Robbery, A Broken Leghorn, Speedy Gonzales and many more cartoons here. The commentary and the bonus features on this collection really speak out extraordinarily well, with a lot of classic clips from legendary animators including the late Chuck Jones who sadly died in 2002, and the legendary Oscar-winning director Friz Freleng who died in 1995.

All in all, the Looney Tunes Golden Collection: 1 & 2 are a very well adjusted DVD combo collection of some of the greatest animation of all time. If you really want the looney experience set in, don't buy either of them, buy both of them at once. It is a wacky animated package, at a reasonable price. That's All Folks!!
