Popeye & Friends: Warner Home Video Triumphs

Popeye & Friends Volume One

Warner Home Video has irked many folks with their over priced volumes of Popeye DVD collector’s editions. Taken away from the audience they were intended for, well now Warner made amends in my book with triumph good news of a new series of real affordable editions for the mass market, and in my opinion elegant looking art on the cover. This is relief news, and it might encourage others to buy the collector’s editions. A well done job for the studio, I am impressed that they are catering to the public. The only draw back is that the cartoons are from the 1978 CBS Saturday morning series. It’s as though the first cartoons are like minted gold and they don’t want to have them on a lower scale DVD package. Give the kids a little bit to see what an amazing cartoon it was in the early days of animation.
