The quality is not very good.......2005-02-24

I would recommend Timeless Cartoons (asin number B0006I686G). Looneytunes Golden Collection or Classic cartoons.

Not bad, but don't expect much... ;-P.......2005-02-22

I purchased Cartoon Marathon, Vol. 1 & 2 from a discount bin, and was pleased to see a number of cartoons I have not seen since I was young. However, the quality isn't all that great (probably because they have not gone through a "remastering" process). Also, I found that the block of Popeye cartoons on Volume 1 is identical to the Popeye block of cartoons on Volume 2, though differnet cartoons are listed on the sleeve.
Again, if you don't have to spend more than a couple of bucks for them, they're worth having, if for nothing else the simple nostalgia.

It is available in dollar stores.......2004-11-10

I actually bought this dvd at a dollar store for $1 and that is all it is worth. buy the following two cartoons instead:
loony tunes Golden collection
classic cartoons B00063QD6G
you can get a better value for your money

DONT BUY THIS.................2004-05-11

Do not buy this DVD. I was so disappointed when I tried to watch it. The quality was terrible. The colors are dark and all messed up. I've seen these same cartoons on Cartoon Network before and they were perfet. I don't know why anyone would put these cartoons on here in this awful condition. Don't buy this, you will be very very disappointed. I wanted to just throw the DVD away. It looks bootleg. The cartoon titles are often cut off at the top and bottom of the screen. It looks just like somebody was videotaping these with a camcorder while thery were playing on a screen in front of them. It's all shaky. DON'T BUY THIS!!!!!!!!! (However volume 2 is good)

Cartoon Marathon, Vol. 2.......2006-12-21

Don't waste your money on this DVD, the sound track is off by almost FIVE SECONDS - a total waste of your time (and money!) If I could give this disc a zero, I would!! One star!

The quality is not as good as it should be. I would say buy the looney Tunes Golden Collection and classic cartoons (B00063QD6G). I am a cartoon fanatic and quality is very important too me. If the color is washed out or the sound is not as clear I can not enjoy the cartoon.
