350 Classic Cartoons

A mixed bag of public domain cartoons.
If you've bought any of the Mill Creek DVDs before then you should know that this 4 DVD set has a slight advantage over them mainly because they don't edit any of the cartoons or add their name to them. However, about 75% of the set consists of boring and mediocre cartoons (namely Mel-O-Toons, the Famous Studios Popeye cartoons, Clutch Cargo, and some weird cartoon series with a baby that turns into a superhero) and the rest being seen on other sets before it. There are also only 3 Looney Tunes on the whole set so if you're looking for those I'd recommend getting the Cartoon Craze or Toon Factory DVDs if you can find them. Another thing that brings this set down is the fact that 3 cartoons appear twice! (The Fresh Vegetable Mystery and 2 Mel-O-Toons) The title menu of the DVDs leaves a lot to be desired, also. There are a few upsides to the set, being that if you haven't obtained the Ub Iwerks DVDs there are quite a few of the ComiColor cartoons included, and if you love Betty Boop...

The Good, the Bad and the Public Domain
Quantity overwhelms quality in this mostly familiar collection of public domain cartoons. However, once you get past the made-for-TV junk such as "Clutch Cargo" and "Colonel Bleep," you will find six Fleischer Screen Songs from 1929-30, the Terrytoons classic "Billy Mouse's Akwakade" (1940) and Harman-Ising's underrated "To Spring" (1936). Occasional gems from Van Beuren, Ub Iwerks, Warner, Famous and Jam Handy emerge amid the dross. Loses a star for the ridiculous abridgement of the Popeye two-reeler "Aladdin and His Wonderful Lamp" (1939).
