Graham (OGMORE BY SEA, VALE OF GLAMORGAN United Kingdom) 40 out of 40 found this review helpful I purchased this set as I noticed it included my favourite A & C movie `Time of their Lives` which had never been available before on DVD. So to get 7 more movies for a price I would have happily paid for that was a great bonus. The picture and sound quality of all of these films is outstanding and great care has been taken in perfect transfers from excellent, apparently original negative, 35mm material so it is a first class ride throughout. For A & C that is the only way to travel. It seems a shame that some reviewers gripe about a lack of extra and should see it another way. You are buying one movie with 7 first rate features as extras - how about that for value? Remember you are paying less than $1.88 (or around £1) for each of these superb quality movies... I rest my case! All of these series` discs play fine on my multi region players here in the UK. Even the slightest finger mark on a disc or dirty players can cause skipping and freezing (just a thought!). In conclusion incredible value, superb quality set of movies which I recommend to anyone Thank you, thank you, thank you August 1, 2004 Alexander E. Paulsen (Jacksonville, Fl United States) 27 out of 27 found this review helpful Thank you, thank you, thank you to whoever at Universal opened the vault and released these gems on DVD. I grew up with these movies and now get to share them with another generation. This is good clean fun comedy that you won't be emabrassed to show to anyone. Never mean spirited or vulgar, just comedy like it was meant to be by two undisputed geniuses of the genre. Buy this set and enjoy A&C all over again. Now all I need is a box set of the A&C show from the 50's woth Hilary, Mr Fields, Mr. Bacciagalupe, Mike the cop and Stinky. I can't wait. A great follow-up to volume 1!!! February 8, 2004 Murray the Cop (Edison, NJ) 16 out of 17 found this review helpful A perfect compliment to the first volume and a must have to any A&C fan (and at a better price than vol 1). This should keep you up in laughter for hours (however, I do not know of the quality of the video transfer). Disc 1 - Hit the Ice, In Society, Here Comes the Coeds, The Naughty Nineties. Disc 2- Little Giant, The Time of Their Lives (my personal favorite), Buck Private Come Home, The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap, A&C Meet Jerry Seinfeld. Sit back, relax and enjoy the laughter... Loved It! May 8, 2004 7 out of 7 found this review helpful I loved all the movies. My favorites being The Naughty Nineties, and In Society. I remember all of them from when I was a child, and they were wonderful to get to watch all over again on DVD. I didn't notice any quality issues with my set, I must've gotten lucky this time around. I was just reading that Vol 3 comes out on 8/3/04 Featuring: Disc 1: Meet Frankenstein Mexican Hayride Meet the Killer, Boris Karloff In the Foriegn Legion Disc 2: Meet the Invisible Man Comin' Round the Mountain Lost in Alaska Go to Mars I can't wait to add those to my collection. Abbott and Costello are my favorite comedians of all time. Cannot beat it for the price! May 20, 2004 7 out of 7 found this review helpful Putting all these movies together in one collection is a stroke of genius IMHO. I'm amazed at the picture quality of these vintage movies. I owned many of them on 8mm as a kid and now get to enjoy the full length editions (some of which I have never seen all the way through). "Hit the Ice" has always been a favorite of mine and starts off this series well. I still haven't seen all eight, but it's like unlocking a time machine for this A&C fan. No complaints here.
