Lavish musicals.......2006-03-28

O.K. so it's Black and white pretty horrible quality and the audio doesn't do justice to what it must have really sounded like. I still would love to see these movies restored. The musical finale of "The cowboy and the Senorita," is lavish and actually gives me goose-bumps and pride to see how wonderfully done this musical was. Wow! It's light-heartedly, funny too! The song "Enchelada man" who goes around "spreading indigestion" is hilarious. Roy and Dale are together on all these movies. Such wonderful singers! Also the movie "Home in Oklahoma" has the musical number "Showboat" which also is very lavishly done for that time period. It would have been thrilling done in today's color and surround sound. Sons of the Pioneers sing "Tall timbers calling (or falling?)" is another great harmony number done boldly! At one point Roy rides out on Trigger and sings and you can see Trigger's wet eyes while Roy sings his happy optimistic cowboy song. It just makes you feel good! He has charisma presence even on this old B & W. We need heroes and they are certainly here.

Rather disappointing.......2005-01-24

The poor quality of the film transfers were rather distracting. It made it look like the briteness setting on my TV was too high. Also, 3 out of 4 of these movies are edited versions. Home in Oklahoma was the only movie to be full length. Carson City Kid looks to be missing about 4 minutes. Yellow Rose of Texas has 13 minutes missing, The Cowboy and the Seniorita is missing 23 minutes. Most of what was edited were songs. Unfortunately, no run time information was available on Amazon. The price was pretty good for 4 movies, and if you've never seen Roy in action, it's a cheap way to do so.

Stick with the Roan Group releases.......2004-04-14

Having purchased Vintage's version of "39 Steps" [Montage of Mysteries, along with "Rich and Strange" and "Young and Innocent"], and having been satisfied with 2 of the three transfers on that DVD, I decided to take a chance on their Roy Rogers release. While watchable, it is clear not a lot of care was given in transferring these movies. Some of the text on the opening credits is so out of focus it can't be read.

My recommendation....stick with the Roan Group releases (Volumes 1-3).

[Also, avoid the truncated "Happy Trails Theatre" releases by Good Times.]

4 Classics featuring the King of Cowboys........2004-02-12

THE CARSON CITY KID: Roy Rogers is "The Carson City Kid," and he accidentally earns a reputation of a stagecoach robber.
THE YELLOW ROSE OF TEXAS: As an insurance investigator, Roy works undercover to catch a criminal in the act of robbing Dale's showboat.
COWBOY AND THE SENORITA: When Chip inherits a supposedly worthless gold mine, Roy searches for clues as to the real worth of the mine.
HOME IN OKLAHOMA: Duke inherits his father's ranch after his accidental death, but an attempt on his life makes the accident seem like murder.

ROY & TRIGGER.......2007-01-09

THIS WAS PURCHASED AS A GIFT FOR A FRIEND WHO IS A ROY ROGERS FAN. SHE JUST RAVED ABOUT THE MOVIE AND HOW MUCH IT BROUGHT HER BACK TO HER CHILDHOOD.

Roy's favorite of his movies.......2005-06-26

I take issue with the negative review on this movie. I found it a two-hanky movie (for anyone who loves animals), some real acting from "Gabby" (who seldom, if ever, played a drunk) and even a surprise ending. Jack Holt is excellent as the heavy, and Roy is far from the usual super-cowboy character in this. (The "California" character mentioned in another review was played by Andy Clyde, and I don't think he ever appeared in a Rogers movie -- mainly in the Hopalong Cassidy and Whip Wilson series.) This is one of two movie versions of how Roy got Trigger, but much the better one.

The Best Of Roy Rogers.......2000-06-10

This movie-My Pal Trigger- is stupendous! It is a touching story of Trigger and the beginning of Trigger's and Roy's relationship. Along with co-stars, Dale Evans and Gabby Hayes, Roy breeds his prized mare, Lady, to Golden Sovereign, the fastest horse in the west. The owner of Golden Sovereign refuses Roy's request, but amazingly Lady and Sovereign run off together. Roy is accused of shooting the stallion. Months later, Roy returns with the unregistered foal of the Golden Sovereign as a token of sympathy to the owner. Golden Sovereign's owner sneers and tosses the foal off as a "half-breed". Roy is not about to let him get away with that and promises to prove to one and all that the best horse in the world is- Trigger.

funny as it wanna be.......2000-04-19

I used to watch the Roy Rogers and Hopalong Cassidy and all the other cowboy shows every Saturday and I never realized how ridiculous they were until I watched this one last fall again. What's with Roy Rogers being in some rodeo glamour-looking costume and everyone else in flannel shirts and jeans? The funniest part is how fast and out of nowhere they get into fights. This movie cracked me up. I only wished that Gabby Hayes would have played a drunk, cuz that's when he's funniest. And how come that skinny guy who used to always play somebody named California or Tennessee couldn't be in it? I wish I knew what movies he was in. Alright that's enough rambling -- if you watched cowboy tv shows, watch this cuz it will crack you up. Otherwise, I wouldn't say you're missing a whole lot.

ALPHA DVD...THE REAL DEAL!.......2007-06-04

This is the one you want! A complete un-cut extremely good looking print of the Roy Rogers classic. Yes, all the songs are here including several variations of the main title. I've seen other versions of LIGHTS/SANTA FE running under 60min. and they're missing chunks of storyline!!!
Roy & The Sons of the Pioneers sign on with Dale & Gabby's rodeo which is plumb out of playing dates due to competitor Richard (former cowboy star Tom Keane) Powers' rival rodeo. Roy saves both the rodeo & Dale from marrying the crook! Roy Barcroft is great as the lead henchman and Shug Fisher is around for the laughs.
So, if you want a clear/sharp intact version of LIGHTS OF OLD SANTA FE get the ALPHA dvd, the one with ALL the songs. Complete. Period.
ABSOLUTE NECESSARY VIEWING.

If America Falls..........2006-02-26

...it won't be because Roy (as Hickcock) and Gabby didn't try their best. It's 1864 and America may fall apart because of the Civil War. Foreign powers would like to pick up the pieces, especially gold-rich California. A representative of one of those foreign powers is organizing and funding chaos, murder and mayhem perpetrated by Morell's Overland Raiders.

Sally Payne plays Calamity Jane. She's always a delight and as a singing saloon gal Calamity, she's really in her element. She even steals a scene from Gabby (a seemingly impossible feat). Roy and Gabby were the best and this outing is as good as any of them. There's lots of riding in great western scenery, chasing and shootouts. Joseph Kane knew what made a good Saturday afternoon western. Besides, they had to have the good riding scenes so Trigger could do his stuff.

The extras on the DVD are a delight for me. This one has Trigger in Hawaii with 6 kids on his back.

Happy trails, partners

Be Forewarned.......2004-03-27

Be forewarned....the very opening of the movie on this DVD has been truncated. The source for these transfers is evidently a program hosted by Roy and Dale in their later years. While I have no problem with the DVD's containing the intros, I did not pay for a movie that is not in its entirety...COMPLETE opening credits and all.

Secondly, the source is not good either. Roan Group did a much better job with their Roy Roger movie transfers.
