Movie Reviews of Gumby
Movie Review: Nothing fancy, just GOOD OLD GUMBY!
Summary: 4 Stars
This collection of ORIGINAL Gumby films from the 1950s & 60s totals 8 episodes, one of which is Art Clokey's Fantasia influenced "GUMBASIA"! Yes, it's under 4 minutes long, but I have looked high & low for THIS film for years, and here it is on a very economical DVD.
There was much disappointment with that lousy collection Rhino Video released [don't get me wrong, "RHINO" is a GREAT company!] but the Gumby DVDs they released have that yeechy boring 1980s re-made music in all the episodes.
The fact was, was the original MUSIC LIBRARY CUES the films used [made up of "CAPITOL HI-Q" "CINEMUSIC" "EMI PHOTOPLAY" & "SYNCHRO"!] was & since has become a muddled affair, even WITHIN the 'production music library' business!
So Art Clokey did a 'smart business move' by RE-CREATING his OWN music for the films that HE would own......unfortunately, Art, we love you too, but you ruined our 'childhood memories' of "Gumby" by doing that.
People will tell me "aww, get a life!" when reading this, but I'm obviously not the only one who's been burned by savvy, sneaky revampings of 'things we liked in our childhood'. Art says he'll eventually get them ALL re-released again someday, with the ORIGINAL music. Well, us fans of vintage audio & video don't know WHO to trust anymore [i.e. the removal of Frank Comstock's ORIGINAL music from the "Rocky & Bullwinkle" DVD re-issues! Criminey! What ELSE has secretly been destroyed?] [:-)]
Anyway, you can't lose by buying THIS DVD. The original William Loose [& friends] music is THERE. Some of the prints have scratches, but Art, we'll enjoy these off-beat releases until you can get things straightened out with the library music care-takers [good luck!]
