Product Description Steven Spielberg Presents Tiny Toon Adventures Season 1, Volume 1A new generation of toonsters searches for fun, adventure and mischief in the "anything can happen because it's animation" land of Acme Acres.]]> desertcart.com The popularity of animated programming surged in the 1990's and Warner Brothers' answer to films like Disney's The Little Mermaid and the increasingly popular Nickelodeon was Tiny Toons, a series of afternoon cartoons aimed squarely at kids. While drawing inspiration from the Looney Tunes cartoons of the 1930's through 1960's, Tiny Toons featured a cast of all-new animated personalities in modern settings and situations. Buster Bunny and Babs Bunny (no relation) reside in Acme Acres, home of Acme Looniversity where Looney Tunes greats Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, and Yosemite Sam make the occasional appearance as professors. Buster and Babs, along with their many friends including Plucky Duck and Hamton Pig, are committed to foiling the ever-greedy plans of rich boy Montana Max, struggling to escape the overly-loving clutches of Elmyra Duff, and generally getting themselves into one crazy predicament after another. Silly humor; parodies of well-known movies, television shows, and fairytales; and sly social commentary abound in these 35 adventure tales. Kids ages 5 years and older will love this series and adults will thoroughly enjoy episodes like The Twilight Zone spoof "The Acme Acres Zone" and Star Wars spoof "A Quack in the Quarks" as well as the wacky appearances of Looney Tunes characters from their own childhoods. The bonus "From Looney Tunes to Tiny Toons: A Wacky Evolution" features interviews with executive producer Jean MacCurdy, several story editors, and a host of others involved in Tiny Toons and details the vision for Tiny Toons as well as some background on the original Looney Tunes cartoons and its creators. --Tami Horiuchi Review: Ha ha ha hee hee hee ho ho ho - Love owning it such a great show brings me back to my youth and good television.

Finally!
Fantastic! Tiny Toon fans have been waiting for years to see this out on DVD. For those not as familiar, Tiny Toon Adventures (TTA) was a weekday cartoon that came out in the early 1990s. It's animation and story lines were wonderful, contrasted with the majority of poorer quality animated shows of the time. The "next generation" of Looney Tunes (not baby versions of the originals), TTA kept what made toons fun, while leaving most of the old overdone formulas behind. While enjoyable for kids, it also had a lot of jokes and references that made the show as much fun for adults as well. In fact most of the people I knew who watched TTA were young adults, including myself. But don't bother trying to convince the marketing people of that. Fortunately the writers and animators knew their audience. I've seen some box art for this elsewhere, and have to say I think they could significantly improve it, if going to be more appealing to its fans. But don't let it dissuade you from checking the show out. Overall one of my favorite cartoon series, and as much fun for us big kids as for the young ones. I'm looking forward to having it on DVD!

Awesome Show - Terrible Packaging
Just recieved my copy this morning and I was highly disappoited in the Packaging for Tiny Toons. Looks like hardly any effort was put into it. The set is not in a DVD boxset but in a single DVD case. Instead of overlapped discs, the discs are in thier own case, so you have to flip to get to them. The boxart is nothing special, something you could easily do in Photoshop. I'm certainly not a fan of flip side discs like for disc 4. It would have been better if they had just added a disc 5. There is also no artwork on disc 4 which means it will probably get easily scratched if you don't take care of it. There're these weird circular things on the front and back inside the DVD. Not sure what the point of that was for. For a great show, it definiely deserves better treatment and should've recieve the same treatment that Animaniacs had gotten. On a good note, the episodes are unedited! The picture quality is still bright and colorful. Though there is still some grainy-blurry spots on them. Besides the packaging, I'm super happy that it's finally out on DVD. It's been so long since I had last seen Tiny Toons. I don't think I will buy Season 1 Volume 2. Again, the packaging is just awful. I think I'll wait for a complete season 1 boxset and hope for better treatment. 5 stars for the show, 2 stars for the packaging.

The beginning of WB silver age animation, with rough patches
I remember when this series first came out on weekday afternoons. I enjoyed it immensely and found lots of laughs and fun stories. Some of the humor is definitely dated to the early 90s, the culture and personalities of the day, but I think children, youths and adults can still find plenty to enjoy about it. This series was essentially the beginning of a string of animated hits from Warner Brothers during the 90s television animation revival, roughly coinciding with Disney's launch of a high-quality series of television animated programs. The writing and music were great, with some stories and characters more memorable than others. This first volume features some of the most classic episodes that I remember best and most fondly. However, the transfers on this set are rather poor. Much poorer than those of Pinky and the Brain and Animaniacs volumes. They look like transfers from old syndication tapes, the picture being somewhat soft. Also, during this early period WB was farming out the animation work all over the world. Most of the studios did good to very good work animating these programs. Unfortunately one studio seemed to get a disproportionate amount of the work during these early days and did an absolutely terrible job. Kennedy Cartoons animated and for all intents and purposes ruined large portions of these cartoons and even whole episodes. How can I describe how unappealing their animation was? Basically the guilty parties should be hunted down and punished. How in the world they could receive the model sheets, do their sorry excuse for animation, look at the two in comparison and not see that their product looked like absolute garbage is beyond me. The characters are consistently off model, with stupid "cigar-chewing" mouths, goofy hand posture, shuffling feet, look like they're squatting on the floor all the time, and bouncing incessantly. To see this worthless junk animated over the lavishly painted backgrounds of this series is a bit disconcerting. It's even more egregious, almost criminal, when Kennedy got their dirty mitts on classic characters like Elmer and Bugs for short segments, such as in "Fields of Honey". I remember tuning in for re-runs of this show after school. If I saw it was one of the episodes that looked like trash I'd just turn it off. Mercifully Warner Bros got fed up with the crap Kennedy consistently produced and finally gave them the boot. Later seasons and later WB series didn't suffer the indignity of being animated by those no-talent hacks. Here's hoping for future volumes of this series that will feature better animated episodes on the whole and have even more fun memories.

1990年くらいに日本でも放送されていたtiny toon adventuresがDVDで見られると知って買いました。ゲームにもなっていたのでキャラだけは知っている人もいるはず。 とにかくキャラの動きやジョークの言い回しがアメリカンなので、日本では一般受けしなかったようですが、個人的には大好きです。 英語の字幕が出せるので、聞き取れなくても内容はわかりますし、一言一言がジョークに満ちているので英語の口語表現の勉強にもなります。特にバスターとバブスの絶妙なやりとりは秀逸。 35話(約12時間分)でこの価格はかなりお手頃だと思います。ついでにパッケージもかわいい。 もちろん北米リージョン専用のDVDなので、お買い求めの際は気をつけてください。

I really love this dvd. I have a collection of retro cartoons from my childhood. Theres alot id like to add to my collection but being american imports they only play on my laptop. I was happy but sceptical to read the review that this dvd played on a uk player. Im happy to say it does play and is a very bright good quality dvd for every age to enjoy with fun humour and good cartoons x

Quelle joie de retrouver en dvd les personnages qui ont marqués mon enfance. La qualité vidéo n'est pas extraordinaire, on note quelques poussières ici et là sur les épisodes mais ce n'est aucunement gênant pour apprécier les aventures des Toons qui ont tout de même plus de 20 ans aujourd'hui. A noter que la vf sur ces dvd est bien la même que lors de la diffusion TV française; le charme reste donc intact. Enfin, et je pense que ce point vous intéressera tout particulièrement, les DVD s'ils sont étiquetés zone 1 sont en fait multi-zone et passeront donc sans problème sur votre lecteur dvd zone 2.

As a 90's kid this show was always on in the background whenever I went to my friends place. 30 years later I am watching it again and it's like a blast to the past. It's like being in the early 90's again. The episodes hold up well (but you can really tell it's a 90's cartoon) and the characters are cute/colourful/entertaining/funny. It's an exciting show, and will put you in a good mood whenever you play an episode. They just don't make em like this anymore and there is something special about this series. I really like the art style and whole feel of the series. Each episode stands out and it's easy to pick favourites. I didn't think I'd find it funny after such a long time but found myself chuckling quite a bit. Great purchase. :)
