Rating: - Don't Fret!, Still Great!
Yes, Though this ushers in the end of the "Fleischer era", I can happily report that even the entrance of the "Famous Studio" series, isn't nearly as bad as I had exppected!
I purposely started watching a few of the cartoons near the end of disc 2, just to see how bad they could be. The first "good" sign was that they were still black and white, and though visually, the characters were beginning to look a little differant, the nice thing was that there were now some unique and differant ...

Rating: - Popeye enters his next stage of evolution.
The start of the 1940s brought about many changes for Popeye. World War II had just begun, and as the United States prepared for its eventual involvement in the global affair, the country's animation studios sent out their best stars to fight for the cause and rally people's support for the troops. The Warners sent Bugs Bunny and Disney pushed out Donald Duck, both of whom found their stardom peaking in this decade. The Fleischers, naturally, drafted Popeye into the Navy. Along with this came changes: ... Read More
Rating: - Popeye Goes to War
Of the three Popeye collections this is the one I was looking forward to the least. Not that I wasn't eagerly anticipating it but there were some thing about volume 3 that I knew I wouldn't be thrilled with. First of all these cartoons were released in 1941 just as World War II was starting and after the 10th cartoon of disc one, `The Mighty Navy', Popeye spends much of his time on a Navy destroyer. I'm not that into the Popeye in the Navy cartoons and his switch to Navy dress whites isn't nearly as visually ... Read More
Rating:  - Many source prints grainy and too contrasty
All of the "ship door title and credits" cartoons seem to have the Paramount logo and "Paramount presents Popeye..." title cards digitally spliced in from a single source print, after which a grainier and much more contrasty print is used. Looks like somebody had the telecine on AUTO rather than trying to match the different source elements.
Some reasonable amount of digital noise reduction would have made a tremendous improvement in the look of these cartoons. The spocket wear jitter and rapid brightness ... Read More
Rating: - Popeye: A true American Icon
Is it kind of ironic that this DVD set was released on election day? I'm pretty sure I am in the majority that I bought this set on the day of its release, but did not have a chance to watch it until the day after due to the election. We were originally supposed to have this set on September 30, but it got delayed in order to prevent the issues that arose with Volume 2. While I was disappointed about the delay at first, let me just say it was worth the wait.
After watching disc 1 last night after work, ... Read More
