If you are like me and grew up on TV reruns of the old B&W Popeye cartoons, this two-disc DVD will bring back many fond memories. Unlike many other previous Popeye compilations, these films are in pristine condition. And while the previous set (1933-1938) covered more ground, this latest volume has the Fleisher Studio animators in tip-top form. Spanning over 30 of their best Popeye theatrical shorts, you'll see the first cartoon appearances of the Jeep, Poopdeck Pappy, and the Goons from Goon Island. Also included are numerous commentaries, the third Fleischer-produced color Popeye cartoon, and short documentaries on the Fleischer Studio and Mae Questel, the voice of Olive Oyl and Betty Boop. This a DVD collection no Popeye fan should be without.
A great collector piece. Although some of the characters and situations by today standards would be considered politically incorrect the sense of humor is still very original At the time of production

I love these cartoons,I watched them when I was young.I have Volume 1 and I highly recommend this set as well. I especially like the 1938' "Plumbing Is A Pipe" when Wimpy says: "Gosh-I Forgot My Gloves" It reminds me of the 1938' "The House Builder Uppers" which is on Vol.1 I give this a 5 stars all the way-great cartoons with uncomprable quality! Popeye The Sailor Man 1933' Spinach Monkey!! It looks like Vol 3 just came out as well. Have a great spinach day!!:):)
Brings back my child hood! My grandson loves it! Good papa grandson bonding!
