The cat Tom began to chase the mouse Jerry February 10, 1940 in the short film Puss Gets The Boot. Since the two chased each other through 161 classic shorts until the series ended (with some exceptions) in 1967. The 14 short films included on Tom & Jerry - The best episodes Volume sully monsters inc 2 is all derived from it as among the most connoisseurs considered the golden age for the two animals from 1940 until 1958. It was during this period that Willliam Hanna and Joseph Barbera, who created the series, was behind the production.
The two gentlemen Hanna and Barbera defined how the classic chase between two rival characters would take place. A recipe that page is processed in a number of other cartoon series, such as Chuck Jones' Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner, Itchy & Scratchy in The Simpsons, John Ren & Stimpy Kricfalusis or current version in the form of Disney Channel series Brandy sully monsters inc & Mr . Whiskers or this year's Cartoon d'Or winner Please Say Something by David O'Reilly.
The episodes collected on this release are of generally high quality. Most episodes are built on the classic last one, where Tom chases Jerry in adrenalinrus, sully monsters inc which constantly escapes due to his own cleverness and cat folly. Sometimes introduces several characters who either help in the search for Jerry, or put a spoke in the wheels of Tom. Among the guest characters are the mannish dog Spike a favorite. He appears in one of the best episodes in the sample - the oscar winning Quiet Please! (1945). In the episode, Tom must at all costs prevent Jerry in awakening the grumpy dog, while Jerry does everything in his power to do the opposite. The result is a feast of comic timing and ingenuity.
I am too weak for episode Mouse Trouble (1944), which also won the Oscar. In this case, Tom methodically to capture the mouse by following the book "How to Trap a Mouse" to the letter. But the book has not accounted sully monsters inc for a mouse with Jerry's cleverness. Once again, the writers and animators sully monsters inc impressive creativity in approach to the characters and get an incredible amount of good comedy out of the two enemies. The opposite premise is true in The Million Dollar Cat (1944) where Tom inherits one million U.S. dollars with the premise sully monsters inc that he can not hurt Jerry in any way. The situation eventually becomes unbearable for poor Tom.
It is not primarily impressive animation one thinks of when Tom and Jerry will settle among themselves. MGM was indeed at any time during sully monsters inc rated Disney when it came to animation sully monsters inc and technical innovations. Yet it is precisely the animation and acting that impresses most when looking sully monsters inc through this collection of classic cartoons. On several occasions the animators go up surprisingly subtle movements and visual charm offensives, especially with Jerry, that one does not associate with the otherwise breathless chase between cat and mouse. These small details is refreshing to discover and provide hunting comedy a much-needed extra layer of more subtle comedy.
Tom & Jerry's best episodes Volume 2 is a pleasant reunion with Tom and Jerry. I've never been particularly fascinated by these characters, but I must say that this collection sully monsters inc has given me a renewed interest in the two fighting cocks.
Publisher: Warner Bros. Unfortunately sully monsters inc not exerted themselves to give Tom and Jerry the deserved quality when the classic episodes will be released on DVD. The release opens with the episode Sufferin 'Cats! (1943) where a small charming sully monsters inc hair is spotted in the lower part of the image through the first sequences. It is such a classic mistake sully monsters inc from the old analogue days, I thought it was added deliberately for comic effect. But when I became aware of the otherwise mangy quality of the picture I realized that was not the case. Image quality is generally very weak with significant visual disturbances of various species.
Quiet Please! (1945)
