The fifth collection of Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies continues Warner Bros.' scattershot approach, mixing classics and obscurities. Among the best-known and funniest cartoons are 'Ali Baba Bunny' (Daffy yelling, 'I'm rich! I'm socially secure!'), 'Bewitched Bunny' (Witch Hazel galloping off in a cloud of hair pins), and 'Buccaneer Bunny' (a sterling example of one of director Friz Freleng's favorite gags: having the characters run up and down stairs and in and out of various doors). 'Gold Diggers of '49' and 'Little Red Walking Hood' show Tex Avery beginning to explore the self-reflexive gags that would be become one of the hallmarks of his mature style. In 'Walking Hood,' Grandma stops the action to answer the phone and place her order with the grocer--including a case of gin. 'The Daffy Doc' is Bob Clampett at his most surreal, with Daffy and Porky getting sucked into an iron lung, bulging and shrinking like balloon animals. Some of the earliest cartoons predate the adoption of 'The Merry-Go-Round Broke Down' as the theme song for the Warner Bros. cartoons. Many shorts from the early '30s were built around songs from Warner's musicals: 'I've Got to Sing a Torch Song' (written for Gold Diggers of 1933) features caricatures of Mae West, George Bernard Shaw, Benito Mussolini, and Bing Crosby frolicking to the title tune. Greta Garbo delivers the closing, 'That's All, Folks!' Like the previous four sets, Golden Collection Volume 5 comes loaded with extras that range from three WWII films in which Mr. Hook urges sailors to buy war bonds to 'Extremes and In-Betweens: A Life in Animation' (2000), a documentary about Oscar-winning director Chuck Jones. Many of these cartoons will have viewers of all ages in stitches. (Unrated, suitable for ages 6 and older: cartoon violence, ethnic stereotypes, mild risqué humor, alcohol and tobacco use) --Charles Solomon

Rating:  - ONE OF THE BEST LOONEY TUNES COLLECTIONS!
I loved this Looney Tunes Collection! It kept me laughing right to the end of every cartoon! WHAT A WACKY WABBIT!! Plus all the rest of my favorite characters I grew up watching on Saturday mornings when I was a kid - THA-THA-THA'S ALL FOLKS!
Rating:  - Still great, but a letdown
After counting down the days for a year for this installment, I was let down.Its still great and the bonus features as always are fun, and I am glad I own it, but it had a lot of old and specialty cartoons.I had wanted a Taz, more Pepe LePew's or Foghorn Leghorns.These characters are being neglected by these sets since the first volume.There were some gems: Wagon Heels no one probably knew about before this set and its one of the best animated shorts I've ever seen.Buccaneer Bunny with ...

Rating: - good collection
great collection.got it for my grandkids to watch when they visit and they love this series.good ole cartoons!
Rating:  - Spare us the cr@p, deliver the goodies!
If I'm to put up with politically correct disclaimers, at least let me get my money's worth, instead of ripping me off with second-best material.
Case in question: "Señorella and the Glass Huarache".
Now don't get me wrong, I am Mexican and not in the least offended by the depiction of my fellow nationals in the cartoon. Personally, I love Speedy Gonzalez, Slowpoke Rodriguez, the two lazy crows, the sombreroed cricket and every other ethnic pun aimed at Mexico and Mexicans. ... Read More
Rating: - Fun tunes
OK so I admit I'm a fan of ol'time animation. This collection is for the most part what I remember as a child. These were once the standard on Saturday morning. The fact that WB kept these uncut and not so PC by todays standard's is nice.
