The pacing, direction (by Jack Kinney) and music are all played out wonderfully here, and with the 1950 cartoon Wonder Dog missing here, this has to be the highlight of the set for me (I’ll even forgive the none-too correct final pose in the mirrors when Pluto turns away to watch Butch run off)! Fans of Disney, animation, and Pluto will definitely want to add this DVD to their collections. It's a collection of 36 7-8 minutes Donald Duck cartoons from 1934-41 and an introduction. Not only is that set a delight in itself, but it makes for very interesting viewing in seeing Pluto come out into the spotlight, while Mickey becomes a safe, company figurehead. Rated: G (General Audience) Format: DVD. The cartoon has some pretty elaborate staging, and an exciting climax that is actually quite harsh in the way it deals with the way the “villain” gets his comeuppance. Walt Disney Treasures - The Complete Pluto, Volume 1 (2004) "1930 - 1947" TMDb Score. Walt Disney Treasures is a series of two-disc DVD sets of classic Disney works, covering work from the studio's earliest days to modern material relating to the context of a specific set. Format: DVD. Director: Norman Ferguson, Clyde Geronimi, Burt Gillett, Jack Hannah, Jack Kinney, Charles A. Nichols, Ben Sharpsteen From the Vault - A Gentleman's Gentleman (1941).mp4, 01. This collection doesn’t feature the “best” of Pluto, but it’s a good place to start, and even as someone who isn’t as much of a fan as the character as I am of Mickey, Donald, or especially Goofy, I was won over and charmed by most of the films on show, all of which I had seen before, but not in some years. Disc Two’s big piece is an archival segment from the 1954 DisneyLand TV episode A Story Of Dogs: Pluto’s Picture Book. Squatter’s Rights is a classic Disney short, regardless of which series it’s in. One could see this 12-minute piece as simply being extended fluff and not very substantial, but I found it interesting filler, especially my personal realization that, when seen before his body is filled in, Pluto shares an awful close similarity with another Disney dawg, The Goof! Walt Disney Treasures: The Complete Pluto - 1930 - 1947 Pinto Colvig (Actor), Walt Disney (Actor), Ben Sharpsteen (Director), Charles A. Nichols (Director) & 1 more Rated: NR (Not Rated) Format: DVD One of four of the latest releases in the Walt Disney Treasures line of deluxe DVD boxed tin sets, The Complete Pluto, Volume Two: 1947 - 1951 picks up where the first volume left off, bringing the series to an end by showcasing the last 23 animated shorts starring Mickey Mouse's pooch, Pluto. The restoration work on the cartoons is obvious when one catches the glimpses of the same titles here, some of which look like they have been taken from VHS dubs. Changes initiated last wave also remain: instead of numbered tins, we get the certificates as before. A pair-up to face Butch ensues, of course, and Pluto is suitably appreciative to the little turtle by the picture’s end. I know I’d have been more happy to have the same cartoons appear again here if it provided a more rounded look at Pluto’s career. There have been nine waves (versions) of the DVDs, each containing two, three or four different sets (adding up to a total of thirty different titles). Walt Disney Treasures The Complete Pluto Volume 2 1947-1951. This time around, Roy’s name has been removed and only Leonard Maltin’s signature is in place. Feeling quite “epic” in scope, the short has a very funny ending and has been a favorite of mine for a number of years now. A bit of an odd inclusion, since I would have thought that having the totally Pluto-starring Pluto’s Judgment Day, from earlier the same year, would have been a better inclusion as one of the first times audiences saw Pluto in color. Presented from a Buena Vista re-issue print, this version looks a lot better than the print that was included in the Vault Disney release of Old Yeller, and worth just one more viewing, even if you’ve seen it a hundred times before. They cover material from the studio's earliest days to its more recent work. Fans of Disney, animation, and Pluto will definitely want to add this DVD to their collections. The final sequence, with Mickey mistaking a ketchup-covered Pluto as having been shot, is great, and Pluto’s own face at believing the trick is priceless, going down in the Disney shorts as a true highlight! SHARE Another Mickey short that plays in with Pluto’s theme on the main titles, this one has the still-as-yet-unnamed Chip ‘n’ Dale living in the stove at Mickey’s “Hydout”. Especially poignant to see Frank Thomas (as usual with Ollie Johnston) in the interview clips, which must have been among the last he recorded before his recent passing away, and we also hear from John Canemaker and Andreas Deja on what they feel brings the character to life. Please login to make requests. Some of these shorts have appeared on DVD before, notably the Goofy cartoons on 2002's Treasures entry, The Complete Goofy. All told, there are just over one hundred images here, with the background layouts especially worth taking a peek at. The Complete Pluto, Volume Two Buy Review Press Release: Your Host, Walt Disney Buy Review Press Release: The Hardy Boys, The Mickey Mouse Club Buy Review Press Release: From the beginning, Walt Disney's SILLY SYMPHONIES series was a mecca for innovation and unabashed creativity. With the newest offering, we get The Complete Pluto, Volume One, a package of cartoons that feature the adorable pooch. If they were going to split any of the characters’ series up, I wish it had been Goofy, who starred in a number of TV spin-offs and educational shorts that would have made for a great two-volume edition. As with the Mickey series, where Pluto was a major scene-stealer (even in the later cartoons), some of these cartoons are labelled as Mickey entries, though that is mostly down to Studio cataloguing, and Mickey rarely, or at least briefly, makes an appearance in these films. As the title suggests, it’s another wartime effort, though one that just plays as an “army picture” today, concentrating on Pluto’s attempts to protect a pillbox he is supposed to be watching from the cheeky chipmunks’ plans to use it as a nut store. I never really worked out whether Pluto was man or mouse’s best friend, since he’s roughly the size of a real dog to a three-foot mouse! Walt Disney Treasures has made some impressive releases and Pluto volume one is not going to be the most discussed, but it's a great volume to own if you're a Pluto fan. Disc One opens with a two-minute introduction to the character by Maltin, followed by the aforementioned The Chain Gang (presented with later, re-issue title card art), which served as Pluto’s debut, even though he only appears for a few seconds and would not be named until 1931’s The Moose Hunt.

When Mickey and Pluto arrive for a getaway and want to start cooking, the chipmunks put up their usual fight to keep their place. Hopefully the Walt Disney Treasures line will continue long enough to get out most - if not all - of the studio’s classic shorts. Although they would later become synonymous with creating havoc for Donald Duck, Chip ‘n’ Dale actually made their (unnamed) debut in a Pluto cartoon, the next one featured here, Private Pluto. Free of hiss, and showing some considerable bass action in some of the more rambunctious chases and thumping sound effects, the mixes here reproduce the original soundtracks as well as could be. While the Treasures have been good so far in holding off on repeating material between sets, The Complete Pluto seems happy to duplicate certain cartoons from previous editions. I’m in two minds on whether to glue them permanently to the tins, but for now I have tucked it away inside for safekeeping. Walt Disney Treasures - Limited Edition DVD Boxed Set. The Complete Pluto: 1930-1947. As with other titles in this new wave, I found no additional hidden “Easter Egg” features. The visual look of the short – not to mention the multiple, hilarious gags played on Pluto’s frame inside the mirror room – always impresses me, and I could never tire of this short. DVD. Pluto 101 expands on Maltin’s chat with Andreas Deja, concentrating on the animator’s perspective on Pluto. All the cartoons here are presented in their correct 1.33:1 aspect ratio, with no windowbox formatting. It’s certainly one of mine, and is, of course, Bone Trouble, an absolute classic that sees Pluto chased by Butch the bulldog in a carnival hall of mirrors. Despite these misgivings, however, at least the Pluto series itself isn’t missing any titles from when it began in 1937, and this first edition does its job of covering the pup’s first ten years well enough. Walt Disney Pictures (1930-1947), Walt Disney Home Entertainment (December 7 2004), 2 disc set, 266 mins plus supplements, 1.33:1 original full frame ratio, Dolby Digital Mono, Not Rated, Retail: $32.99. The Ultimate Disney Treasure Chest, a box set of the first two waves (packaged without their tins) Walt Disney Treasures is a series of two-disc DVD sets of classic Disney works, covering work from the studio's earliest days to modern material relating to the context of a specific set. Though Pluto’s “true” debut, The Moose Hunt, and the career-defining Playful Pluto (with Norm Ferguson’s masterfully animated flypaper sequence) aren’t present and correct on this set (they’re available in Mickey In Black And White 2), the next short clearly demonstrate how Pluto’s roles were expanding in the Mickey cartoons as he became a more popular character. The cartoon – one of my favorites in the series – features some surprisingly “non-Disney” gags, as well as some very clever repeated animation on the pups themselves, typically strong character work, and a heck of a paint job from the inking department! 7Th, 2004 animation Volume 2 1947-1951 as with other titles in this section, consider.
