Disney's Timeless Tales, Vol. 2 - Ugly Duckling/The Wind in the Willows/The Country Cousin/Ferdinand The Bull (Vol. 2)
Some of the most endearing stories the world has ever known are contained here in Walt Disney's TIMELESS TALES VOLUME TWO. You'll fall in love with the title characters in the two Academy Award(R)-winning shorts "Ugly Duckling" and "The Country Cousin" (Best Short Subject, Cartoons, 1939 and 1936) and revel in the hilarious antics of Mr. Toad in "The Wind In The Willows." With dazzling animation, unforgettable music, and time-honored themes about facing responsibilities and liking yourself for who you are, this collection of four stories is a must-have for every child's video collection.
Customer Review: Wind in the Willows
Both of my daughters are in their 20's now, but when they were very young they LOVED "Wind in the Willows." We found the DVD's at Amazon and purchased them for Christmas. Can't wait to see their faces when they unwrap these gifts and are taken back to their childhood.
Customer Review: Classic favorites
Growing up I can remember watching these Disney cartoons. Now that I have two kids of my own. It is great to share these classic Disney favorites with them.


Walt Disney Treasures - The Complete Goofy
In Stand By Me (1986), one of the boys asks, "If Mickey is a mouse and Donald is a duck, what's Goofy?" The answer: he's a dog. Originally named Dippy Dawg, the Goof, as the animators called him, made his debut as an obnoxious hayseed in "Mickey's Revue" (1932). This generous collection includes 46 of the 48 shorts that starred Goofy between 1939 and 1961 (but none of the great Mickey-Donald-Goofy films from the mid-'30s). The "How to Ride a Horse" sequence in The Reluctant Dragon (1941) set the pattern for many of these cartoons. An elegant narrator (artist John Ployardt) explains a sport that Goofy attempts to demonstrate. The character that animator Art Babbitt described in a 1935 lecture (quoted in the DVD bonus material) as an easygoing dimbulb gave way to an enthusiastic but spectacularly maladroit figure. One of the funniest entries in the series, "Hockey Homicide," contains several studio in-jokes: dueling stars Icebox Bertino and Fearless Ferguson, and referee Clean-Game Kinney are named for artists Al Bertino, Norm Ferguson, and director Jack Kinney.

During the '50s, Goofy was transformed into a genial suburban Everyman in such domestic sitcoms as "Fathers Are People," "Two Weeks Vacation," and "Father's Day Off." The animators reduced his floppy ears and buck teeth, improved his posture, and gave him a brisker walk. The best-known short from this period is "Motor Mania" (1950), a mildly didactic spoof of American behavior on the road that was shown in driver's education classes for decades.

Customer Review: Prehistoric Menu Options ~ What Were you Thinking, Disney?
Cartoons are swell. However, it's a MAJOR disappointment/ Hassle to have to click "Play" on EVERY Single toon. You can't simply "Play All". You must reload each toon from the menu. Not only that, you must click down to the next one, it doesn't do it automatically. It's not out of laziness, but necessity! I put this on for my 2 year old so I can do some household chores but every 6 minutes my son's screaming for me to change the dvd. [A real Horse & Buggyesque Menu, Disney!] I think these discs should be recalled and replaced to us owners free-of-charge by the corporate giant.
Customer Review: 5 goofy cartoons missing
