5.0 out of 5 stars Give it a chance!, Jul 19 2004

By	Brandon Bentley (Bowie, Maryland USA) - See all my reviews

Everyone is giving this one star reviews simply because these are colorized? I could understand if you could no longer see the black and white versions, but the color versions are OPTIONAL! You can check it out, and if it doesn't look good, watch the black and white version! And by the way, the five stars I'm putting up is for the collection of shorts, all four which I have on video and have watched tons of times for years. To see them in color, while not better than the filmed black and white, is interesting to see from a filmmaking point of view and to see them in a way never seen before unless you were actually on the set of filming! And I am a film purist in that I feel that a film should be presented with the originally intended color or black and white picture, original aspect ratio, and original mono or stereo mix. However, I'm always up to try a black and white film colorized and a mono film given a 5.1 surround track... as long as I can still watch and listen to the film the way it was originally meant to be presented... and that is the case here with Columbia. They're giving people a choice to watch some of the best Curly shorts in their original black and white or the new colorized editions. Give it a chance people!

1.0 out of 5 stars Stooged & Confoosed, Jul 10 2004

By	Ronald A. Lara "movienut" (Philippines) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Another reviewer wanted to give less than one star to a colorized Stooge collection. I totally agree. These wonderful shorts were shot in black and white. They are from a certain time in cinematic history. To "color them in" is a travesty. What's next? "The Wizard of Oz" without its opening and closing black and white sections? Stooge fans, unite! Let's vote with our wallets and tell Columbia to leave well enough alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars Why All The Negative Reviews?, Jul 6 2004

By	A Reviewer - See all my reviews

This hasn't come out yet and people are starting to make all sorts of negative comments. Maybe the Colorization looks good. You'll never know until you actually buy it and watch it. Until then, refrain from the negative comments. Columbia is working very hard on these shorts in order to give the shorts good restoration and good color. Watch it before making any sort of negative comments. And, let me remind you. EACH DVD HAS THE BLACK AND WHITE ORIGINALS ON IT!! So, stop complaining. If you hate the colorized version, don't watch it. Watch the black and white version. That's why Columbia provided both. If it costs too much, well too bad. Don't buy it, simple as that.

1.0 out of 5 stars Can I give it less than one star?
Oh, boy. Just when we thought "colorized" films were dead and buried, Columbia resurrects the corpse with a quartet of Stooges shorts in that heinous format. Read more

This looks to have some pretty funny episodes on it.I can't wait to see an ache in the stake but Columbia has apparently cut it to only 4 episodes hence the 3 stars I will buy it... Read more
