Tom and Jerry have brought pleasure to generations of children
and adults. With a winning combination of classic high-octane
chases, wild slapstick action, exciting music and visually
vibrating colours, their cartoon shorts have inspired laughter
and awe for over six decades...
Tom
and Jerry make their very first UK outing on DVD, and not
before time. However, I couldn't work out why this had been
released with a Halloween theme. Firstly it gives it a limited
shelf life - i.e. October/November - and secondly there is
only one cartoon in the collection that could be classed as
having a Halloween theme.
Now
I'm not being unreasonable expecting cartoons of a creepy
nature. These are not spooky tales, nor is there any supernatural
elements to any of the episodes, so why do Warner Home Video
try and sell this as such?
Ignore
that fact, which seems to be the most bizarre marketing scheme,
and the episodes collected here range from average to very
good - can there be a bad Tom & Jerry cartoon?
Episodes include: Is there a doctor in the mouse?; The
flying cat; The missing mouse; Two little Indians; Touché
pussy cat; The flying sorceress; and The haunted mouse
- which, despite
its title, is not a supernatural story.
Extras
include: Jerry's Spooky Sprint - menu based game and a look
at how to draw Tom and Jerry.
Not
a bad collection.
