The hunt is back on again with Tom & Jerry in this
long-awaited sequel from 2000 with over sixty minutes containing
little over an dozen short films of this neverending war
of one-upping between the cat and the mouse created by Hanna-Barbara,
and then later on written by Looney Tunes creator Chuck
Jones. Mouse Trouble and Quiet Please! both won Oscars for
Best Short Subject (Cartoons) in 1945 and 1946. Debuted
on the big screen in 1940, the original went on to win more
Oscars in this category several more times. ***
The DVD also contains popular shorts from 1943-1951
such as "The Million Dollar Cat", "The Bodyguard", "The
Invisible Mouse", "Cue Ball Cat", and Jerry's Cousin". "There
are well over 100 classic theatrical shorts in existence,
and we hand-picked some of the very best to be showcased
on this wonderful DVD" Warner Bros. Home Video VP of Family,
Animation, and Sports Marketing Amit Desal said in a press
release from TVshowsonDVD.com. "We think this title will
be a big hit with consumers because it has multi-generational
appeal. Adults appreciate Hanna-Barbara's beautiful, classic
animation and clever storylines while kids enjoy Tom & Jerry
as characters and their outrageous antics. We are pleased
to offer this entertaining collection to consumers."
