DVD: Stan Laurel ...     DVD:       March of the Wooden Soldiers28 reviews Frank Austin, Billy Bletcher Legend Films, 2006 A L&H Lovers Delight While I wouldn't rate this as Laurel & Hardy's best feature, it certainly rates in the top-5 and is quite enjoyable for the whole family (though as my 5-year old daughter can attest, smaller children may find the bogeymen in the last part of the story just a little too scary without Mom and Dad nearby!). L&H have several enjoyable routines, Henry Brandon does a wonderful overacting job as the ...             Laurel & Hardy - Air Raid Wardens / Nothing but Trouble9 reviews Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy Warner Home Video, 2006 Great B&W flicks with very good DVD quality. Both movies on DVD are fine showings of Laurel's and Hardy's talents. As always there is plenty of laughs and stants. Even my 7-year old daughter was laughing to tears. The quality of DVD - audio and video - is excellent, and maybe there are not too many extras, the movie itself is very satissfying. Highly recommended for Olie and Stan buffs and new-comers.             March of the Wooden Soldiers1 review Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy MGM (Video & DVD), 2008 This is a great holiday movie Some like it colored and some don't. Ether way this based on a 1903 Victor Herbert operetta, film released in 1934 as "Babes in Toyland," and is still fun to watch. Now the basic plot is to keep Mother Peep's (Florence Roberts) shoe from being foreclosed on by the evil landlord Silas Barnaby (Henry Brandon) when this fails Bo Peep has to marry Barnaby to keep the shoe. Now to keep Little Bo ...             March of the Wooden Soldiers88 reviews Richard Alexander, Frank Austin Good Times Video, 2001 March of the Wooden Soldiers/Babes in Toyland What can you say about this historic film...remember watching it when I was young during 50's in black and white...showed color version in VHS to my 2 children...I bought the DVD and showed it to them again this Christmas...some traditions never end...in color it is even better [colorized]!!! Originally titled as Babes in Toyland...             Laurel and Hardy Collection, Vol. 2 (A Haunting we Will Go / Dancing Masters / Bullfighters)13 reviews Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy 20th Century Fox, 2006 Stronger than the previous Fox set I found the films contained in this set to generally be funnier and stronger than the ones on the first volume. While it's true that L&H's career after they left Hal Roach is kind of hit and miss, it's not true that everything they did after 1940 is horrible and deserves to be dismissed out of hand without letting the viewer judge for oneself or without a modern critical re-evaluation of these ...             First Kings of Comedy Collection ("The Golden Age Of Comedy" and "When Comedy Was King")10 reviews Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy Genius Entertainment, 2007 Nostalgia and great service These are hard to find Laurel and Hardy shorts.

Such rich source material makes for a film of unsurpassed quality: featuring rich and ...             March of the Wooden Soldiers88 reviews Richard Alexander, Frank Austin PASSPORT VIDEO, 2003 March of the Wooden Soldiers/Babes in Toyland What can you say about this historic film...remember watching it when I was young during 50's in black and white...showed color version in VHS to my 2 children...I bought the DVD and showed it to them again this Christmas...some traditions never end...in color it is even better [colorized]!!! Originally titled as Babes in Toyland...             Laurel and Hardy Collection, Vol. 1 (Great Guns / Jitterbugs / The Big Noise)31 reviews Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy 20th Century Fox, 2006 Fives stars for entire disk content! These are not the very best Laurel and Hardy movies but they are not really bad either. They are different. If they had started as a team making these movies we would never have known about all their best work and we'd be satisfied with these films as they are. Each of these three movies I enjoyed watching. The picture and sound quality are superior to many of the other Laurel and Hardy videos ...             TCM Archives - The Laurel and Hardy Collection (The Devil's Brother / Bonnie Scotland)25 reviews Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy Warner Home Video, 2006 Top-Notch Laurel and Hardy, prior to the 1940s, could do no wrong. They were exploited in later years -- understandable if one wants to have an income to buy food, etc. However, this archival work is a demonstration of The Boys at their best!             Laurel & Hardy - Early Silent Classics, Volumes 1-4 (4-DVD) Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy Alpha Home Entertainment, 2008 A 4-DVD collection of rare, early silent Laurel and Hardy movies.             Laurel & Hardy (Sons of the Desert/The Music Box/Another Fine Mess/Busy Bodies/County Hospital)87 reviews Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy Lions Gate, 2003 Really Funny We have alot of laughs watching these old films.

Almost 60 years after this film was made, a suicidal young man joined the US Marines to forget his girl troubles. This film will always have a special place in my heart.

Finally these long-overlooked films are being released on DVD instead of languishing away on out of print videos or not even available on that format to begin with (I don't believe 'Gold Raiders' was ever issued on VHS). Yes, the bonus features are very minimal (just trailers for ...             Slapstick Encyclopedia7 reviews Buster Keaton, Charles Chaplin Image Entertainment, 2002 Back to Silents...with Raucous Laughter There are some great and not-so-great items in this set, but all are of interest, if you like silent comedies. I recommend the 3 shorts each by Harry Langdon and Harold Lloyd (with one caveat to be discussed for "Haunted Spooks"), the rare version of Buster Keaton's "The Boat," some of the solo efforts by Stan Laurel (of later Laurel & Hardy fame), the "Hairbreadth Harry" short entitled "Danger ...              search for DVDs another, archives, beautifully, black-and-white, brother, bullfighters, classic, classics, collection, costello, edition, encyclopedia, enhanced, feature, haunting, hollywood, hospital, includes, jitterbugs, nothing, original, raiders, restored, scotland, slapstick, soldiers, symposium, trouble, version, volumes DVD:    Kindle - Amazon's New Wireless Reading Device This is the future of book reading.
