I was very excited to find this collection! In the Silly Symphony cartoon series, the focus is on music rather than a speaking script; very entertaining and imaginative! I love these old Walt Disney short cartoons. I like them better than the full length classics. My sister, brother, and I watched some of these cartoons when we were young and I knew I wanted my daughter (age 3) to grow up watching them as well. I don't care for the current cartoons on t.v., so when I want to watch something with her it's always Silly Symphonies. It's also fun to watch them with my sister and brother and their children. My parents enjoy watching them, too. All in all these cartoons are something everyone can sit down and watch together and everyone will enjoy it! I have actually purchased 2 of these; one for my house and one for everyone to watch at my mom and dad's house. The only thing I don't like is some of the cartoons are hidden. You have to click on a sword or an egg, etc. That is frustrating because it shows in the insert that the cartoon is on there but then you have to search to find it. I could do without that feature. My favorites are Music Land and The Skeleton Dance. I remember both of these from when I was young and they are still favorites today. My daughters favorites are...really all of them! I started to type a list but I quickly realized she likes so many of them it would be a long list! If they ever produce another collection of the Silly Symphonies, there is no question, I will be purchasing that one as well.Read full review
I love the old cartoons that were seen in the movie theaters in the 1920's through the 1950's and that was the main reason why I bought this set. This is Walt Disney at his best. The Silly Symphonies was cartoons that was drawn with the music you hear in the background. There is AWESOME cartoons in this set including six oscar winners,such as-The Three Little Pigs,The Ugly Duckling,Country Cousin,The Old Mill,Flowers & Trees and The Tortoise & the Hare. The Old Mill along is great of animals living in a torn and warn mill that is being threaten by a violent storm. One of my favorites is The Skeleton Dance which was the first Silly Symphony ever made. The skeletons awaken at night and play in a cementary. It is black and white. A true masterpiece. You also get Donald Duck in one of his first cartoons in The Wise Little Hen. A great moral is involved in this classic. Be careful in what you sow for it will come back to bite you. Donald was not fully develope yet but you know it is Donald none the last. My favorite cartoon on here is Wynken,Blynken & Nod. You have to see it to believe it. Money well spent. You will not be sorry. I love it. AWESOME is the only word for it.Read full review
Walt Disney Treasures: Silly Simphonies-The Historic Musical Animated Classics(2001,DVD) This is a great treasure as are all the rest of the Walt Disney Treasures.I bought my first tresure at BestBuy and it was the Complete Goofy. I was amazed at the clarity and sharpness of these restored cartoons. As a big fan of Walt Disney I'm building a library of cartoons I've shared with my kids and someday my Grandkids. It is to bad that todays kids don't experience at a movie the cartoons we remember seeing before a feature. I mainly bought the Silly Symphonies for interest in some very early cartoon features (i.e. Skeleton Dance 1929). The image on the DVD is very clear and sharp. Looks like it could have been made yesterday. Also Like Leonard Malton into on the series
I love these old one off cartoons growing up I never could get enough know I can watch them anytime the walt disney dream us to. It came very quickly and everything was package great.
