## Description

Tom and Jerry , the animation franchise, lasted six decades and saw several geniuses of the form--Chuck Jones, Tex Avery, and Friz Freleng--have a hand in updating and refreshing the series in later years. But Tom and Jerry: The Spotlight Collection, Premiere Volume celebrates the original mastery of producer-directors William Hanna and Joseph Barbera, who took the familiar cat-chases-mouse concept and slowly turned it into witty, unpredictable, and sometimes ironic entertainment. The Spotlight Collection offers 40 restored, remastered shorts beginning with 1943's handsome, Oscar-nominated "Yankee Doodle Mouse" and ending with the fantastic, widescreen 1956 "Blue Cat Blues," very similar to the exaggerated look and feel of former cartoonist-gagman Frank Tashlin's live-action comedies ( Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter? ) from the same period. What strikes one about every episode on these discs is the lavish care Hanna-Barbera paid to Tom and Jerry , not only drumming up new, sometimes exotic settings (such as the swashbuckling "The Two Mousketeers," or for the Old West adventure "Texas Tom") but also consistently turning out gorgeous and wildly creative backgrounds, where straight lines rarely exist and the palette of a night sky includes multiple, dreamy shades of blue and green. Technicolor and novel visual ideas (e.g., shooting a scene through the tunnel-like view of a hollowed-out bread loaf) are sometimes more pleasing than the combative relationship between the two leads. But their rivalry is often renewed in very interesting ways, such as the wonderful "Tom and Jerry in the Hollywood Bowl," in which the pair play competing conductors against a lovely backdrop of L.A. landmarks. Special features include the Anchors Aweigh dance sequence featuring Jerry and Gene Kelly, and a featurette, "How Bill and Joe Met Tom and Jerry." --Tom Keogh Tom and Jerry: Spotlight Collection, The Premiere Volume (DVD) The Tom-and-Jerry legacy chases through every nook and cranny of the classic animation pantheon, spanning six decades and several famous directors. Looney Tunes icons Friz Freleng, Tex Avery and Chuck Jones all played their part. But the enduring cat-and-mouse team was the brainchild of William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. Their first short Puss Gets the Boot (in which Tom was called Jasper) was released with little fanfare. Fellow animators did not consider a cat-pursuing-mouse scenario too exciting or original. But when unleashed on exhibitors and audiences, their hilariously diabolical rivalry delighted everyone. This 2-disc set of 40 restored and remastered shorts (along with fabulous celebratory bonuses) includes nine Academy Award nominees and seven winners.* And with this in hand, you're a winner too!

Review: Review - Excellent Delivery and Product Quality Matched.
Review: I laughed so hard I had to put a heating pad on my stomach - Hanna-Barbera, in the Tom and Jerry phase of their careers, are right up there with Michelangelo and Van Gogh and El Greco. The incredible subtleties of expression and body language, especially with Jerry and Nibbles, are a treasure trove. Disney, of course, is responsible for some wonderful animated films, but these shorts just thrill my heart. I saw these as a kid, but I didn’t REALLY SEE until now. Please buy all three volumes while they’re still around, and thank your lucky stars for Warner Video and desertcart. I hope they run these in Heaven. What would Heaven be without them?

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Finally!!!
*by J***S on July 24, 2004*

First off, I am a huge Tom and Jerry fan. The idea of cat vs mouse should not work so well, but it does. Even with little dialogue these are some of the funniest shorts I have ever seen. To me they are just as good as the Looney Tunes shorts. Although there are several single disc releases of the toons, I knew if I waited long enough we would get a box set of them. Also many of the single disc releases are censored, which is absolutely rediculous. Now we get a 2 disc set of 40 remastered shorts that are supposedly (and hopefully) uncensored. That would be the way to do it since they were meant to be seen in all of their original glory. I have searched everywhere but I can't find an episode listing yet. Maybe the studio hasn't released that yet, but I did find info on extras for the set: Commentary by Jerry Beck on The Zoot Cat, Heavenly Puss and Kitty Foiled. Also on Jerry Dances With Gene Kelly, Tom and Jerry Swim With Esther Williams Behind The Tunes:The MGM Orchestra--20 minute documentary on the music from the show How Bill and Joe Met Tom and Jerry--origin of the series lasting 27 minutes. Sneek Peeks From the information we have been given, this looks to finally give the right treatment for some of the greatest toons of all-time. And I am hyped that Heavenly Puss will be on here, it is a favorite of mine. The price of this set is perfect, and for $[...] you get 40 full, supposedly uncensored Tom and Jerry shorts. Any fan of the series should not pass this up especially at Amazon's low pre-order price. Hopefully they will release an episode listing soon, but be assured that this promises to be a great release.
