5.0 out of 5 stars HERE COMES THE COMEDY !, Jul 19 2004
By THE CRITIC "MOVIE MANIAC" (Windsor, Ontario Canada) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)   
This is a great follow up set to the "Abbott & Costello" Volume 1 DVD release from Universal Studios. Once again the picture and sound are clear and crisp and better than I remember viewing on any television broadcast. I now have 8 more movies in my collection for less than I paid for the "Abbott & Costello meet the Mummy" DVD, and I don't see that title or Abbott & Costello meet Captain Kidd on the scheduled volume 3 DVD release.

As with volume 1 some reviewers have had more quality issues and disc problems, fortunately I haven't had any so far. As for putting 8 movies on 2 discs, I am not a big fan of this format either. But I think if Universal Studios was to release 8 movies on 4 discs it would definitely drive the price up. There really aren't any bonus extra's to speak of, except for some production notes and a few trailers. It sure would be nice to have commentaries from surviving Abbott & Costello family members to hear their thoughts on one of the best comedy teams ever created.

Through the magic of DVD media and these fantastic volumes, new legions of fans are discovering "Abbott & Costello" for the first time. If your a fan of Abbott & Costello or have never seen their films you need to buy this set. These movies are hilarious and pure fun for the whole family. If you're looking for more Abbott & Costello news and information on upcoming Abbott & Costello releases visit their official website. Until the studio releases these movies on single discs in a deluxe box set, this is the only way to go.

DVD features:
-Production notes for: Hit the Ice / In Society / Here Come the Co-Eds / The Naughty Nineties / Little Giant / Buck Privates Come Home / The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap
-Theatrical trailers for: In Society / The Time of Their Lives / The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap

Films Include:
-Hit the Ice (1943)
-In Society (1944)
-Here Come the Co-Eds (1945)
-The Naughty Nineties (1945)
-Little Giant (1946)
-The Time of Their Lives (1946)

5.0 out of 5 stars a classic and classy duo, Jun 3 2004
I grew up watching Abbott & Costello with my father and I very much so think that today's comedien's do not compare when it comes to beautiful slapstick comedy. The only drawback is that they seem to only be putting out certain movies, and not including all such as Rio Rita, It Ain't Hay, and I'm sure more to come. Hopefully at some point every single movie will be released on dvd format!

5.0 out of 5 stars HHHHHeeeyyyyyyy Abbbbboooootttttt, Jun 3 2004
By A Customer
I like Abbott and Costello and they have many funny scenes in all their movies. "In Society" (1944) has many good gags including their "Go Ahead and Blow The Horn" routine with Bud and Lou and their encounter with a policeman. Their plumber"s routine in trying to fix the bathroom leak and the damage Lou inflicts on the bathroom is very funny. One of the movies in the set which is often overlooked as one of their best is the "Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap" (1947). It takes place back in the days of the wild west. This film is very humorous in the fact that Lou inherits the "taking care" of a widow and her numerous children(around 7 or 8 kids) and the farm. The tough guys don't want to kill or harm Lou Costello for fear of inheriting the widow (who is obviously not attractive and has a mouth/and call that could be heard for miles) and her herd of children which is the burden that Lou must carry. This gives Costello the edge in order to act tough and not have to worry about the consequences.

All the movies in this set were transferred flawlessly and the pictures are sharp. Good amount of movies for the price.Good humor and laughs for family viewing.
