Movie Reviews of The Lost Cartoons, Vol. 3: Van Beuren Studios
Movie Review: Nine cartoons, circa 1935
Summary: 3 Stars
GOOD TIMES VIDEO is one of the original budget-label home video purveyors. You may recall their red boxed VHS tapes of public domain movies from 25 years ago, or their various "Bloopers" compilations from that same era. This company has never been known for highest technical quality. Their claims of "loving restoration" of this collection may be hyperbole, yet I believe any lack of perfection when balanced against price point and content still favors this manufacturer.
CARTOON CRAZYS - BANNED & CENSORED (from WINSTAR) features shorts made by several studios, the content of which may be considered by modern viewers to be politically incorrect.

Summary of The Lost Cartoons, Vol. 3: Van Beuren Studios
THE LOST VAN BEUREN STUDIOS CARTOONS Classic Animation, Unseen for Years and Breathtakingly Restored! Here are some of the best cartoons you've probably never seen, from some of the greatest animators in history. Hundreds of hours of detailed restoration have made them look and sound as good as they did the day they were released. This is the "Lost Cartoons" series, with shorts that have not been seen in this condition since their original theatrical release. Hired to head the Van Beuren Studios in 1934, Disney veteran Burt Gillett shifted almost entirely to color and initiated the Toddle Tales, Rainbow Parade, and Felix the Cat series. Here are the first color works of Gillett and Disney pioneer Ub Iwerks, who later worked on Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty. Their influence is especially seen here with Spinning Mice and Picnic Panic, unseen in two-color Technicolor brilliance since the early 1930s. 1) Parrotville Post-Office 2) Ali Baba 3) Parrotville Old Folks 4) Simple Simon 5) Scotty Finds a Home 6) The Hunting Season (aka Hunters Are Coming) 7) Spinning Mice 8) Merry Kittens 9) Picnic Panic Thomas R.
