I would like to thank my new friend Scara for providing some vid caps for all to enjoy on this day September the 3rd of the year 2003. There are 24 pics to enjoy: 16 of the Dancing Bear from "The Downbeat Bear" and 8 of Clint Clobber from "Barbeque Brawl". I've also updated the characters page with the pictures that Scara has provided.
By the way, I would like to take a moment to say Thank You to all who visit and enjoy this site!
The last Weekend of August 2003. Where has the summer gone?!?
Anyway, I just picked up "Tom and Jerry: Hijinks and Shrieks" today. I will be watching it shortly and then I will get on the soap box to proclaim my review.
On a side note, If anyone has any information about the "Tom and Jerry Kids" show that ran between 1990-1993, I'd really appreciate it. I am aware of the information at the Tvtome but the information is not as concise as I need it. Drop me an email if you have info.
Finished watching Tom and Jerry: Hijinks and Shrieks, Rome approaches the soapbox.
Lets being:
The Features
- The Flying Cat
- The Missing Mouse
- Two Little Indians
- Touche' Pussy Cat
- The Flying Sorceress
- Is There a Doctor in the Mouse?
- The Haunted Mouse
"How to Draw Tom and Jerry"
Video Bios for Tom, Jerry, Nibbles, and Spike
Jerry's Spooky Sprint Challenge
Trailers
The Good
The picture quality is great considering how old some of the prints are. The sound isn't too shabby either. It's in stereo from its original mono sound so for those of us that grew up with them it's sort of an improvement in that it is cleaner. Everything is uncut, for the most part. Just like the previous DVD's Warner Brothers released, you can select Play all and watch all 7 toons straight through. I like the fact that they included 2 Chuck Jones Tom and Jerry.
The Bad
Not too impressed with the Extras. "How to Draw Tom and Jerry", funny looks like the same 2 minute speed drawing from Whiskers Away. Bios cute, but could have been more. Jerry's Spooky Sprint Challenge...um...no offense to those that made it, but WHY IS THIS ON THE DVD?!?! It looks slapped together and cheap...and I'm going to stop there cause I'm being nitpicky.
The Ugly
Those that were originally in letterbox are still in pan and scan. Jerry's Spooky Sprint Challenge.
Ok I'm not really impressed with this DVD, but the fact that Tom and Jerry are on DVD makes me happy. Plus this DVD does have 2 Chuck Jones era Tom and Jerry's. Anyway, should you buy it...It's Tom and Jerry, of course you should. But, since there is word that a DVD Box set is being worked on you may just want to wait for that. (No, I don't know when it comes out or any other details. I wish I did).
Memo: The Sounds

Today is Saturday, August 16th, 2003 and I have devoted this weekend to working on the Tom and Jerry site. What does that mean to you, the fan, well, not much. See, I'm fixing some of the code on the site. I've went through a lot of the pages and cleaned things up.
"Gee, Rome, this update is anti-climactical. We thought you were going to add something new to the site..."
Fear not, I will. :-]
- I will be adding a few new wallpapers.
- Possibly adding some more information about videos
NOTE: THE SOUNDS PAGE WILL BE TAKEN DOWN THIS WEEKEND. IT WILL BE BACK UP ON MONDAY.. I have re-coded the page and there are a few things that I am unable to do at home and must do at work on Monday. THIS IS ONLY TEMPORARY!
Only 3 more days till Tom & Jerry: Hijinks & Shrieks is released!
I love Comic book Conventions! I just got back from the Wizard World Comic Convention in Chicago, today August 10. And let me tell you! Comic Conventions are gold mines for finding nifty stuff! One nifty thing that I was able to afford was some original Tom and Jerry Comic Art. :-] So to share with everyone I scanned it in a put it in the pictures gallery. It's on the last page. Also, for those of you that love to color, 2 of the panels have been enlarging for print so that you guys can download and color to you hearts content.
