New Popeye DVD set: 1933-1938--Outstanding! (vanity)

Posted on 07/31/2007 7:18:09 PM PDT by wolfinator

We just bought the newly remastered Popeye DVD set. If you're a fan, you must see this. It has all the old black and white cartoons from 1933-1938. The clarity is so sharp and the sound is outstanding. Many of the toons have optional commentaries, which really add to the experience.

Strange thing, I guess, is that it's put out by Warner Bros. I didn't know they owned the rights! But bravo to whoever made this happen.

Swee’pea was an orphan that Popeye found. It wasn’t the child of any of the main characters (as far as we know).

I wouldn’t have touched her with a 10 foot pole - but no telling how Popeye was proportioned after a can of spinach...

Heck, who fathered Popeye’s “nephews”? Even better, who mothered them?

Does it include the Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves cartoon?

"Tippy-toe, tippy-toe, tippy-toe!"

The animation on that one is outstanding!

"....Popeye was the best non PC cartoon of all time....."

I beg your pardon....so was Foghorn Leghorn. Also, Brer Rabbit and the Tar Baby.

I came to this thread to post something smart-alecky, but I’m not about to try that with this many Popeye fans watching.

Popeye's First Episode

I'm a huge fan. Popeye was my Spiderman.

I used to watch Popeye in the '50's when I came home from school. Kids today don't have TV shows with true American heroes like Popeye.

Hard to think up good graphics with chili, lol. Well, I could think of a few if I really tried.
