A REVIEW BY SOMEONE WHO Actually Owns THE DISC

While most reviewers here choose to trash this release without viewing it. Typical Stooge Snobbery.
What this DVD offers is an uncut version of Disorder In The Court with footage not in the public domain version albiet a very short addition.The colorization is top notch,and not what many objected to when B&W films first got colorized. Same for the other 3 shorts.
I have said it before and here I go again. If you want to keep the boys around in the minds of younger viewers the films need to be in color. The Disc allows you to watch in B&W too so.
For those who hate seeing this technology relax and watch the shorts in great condition uncut in B&W. Well worth the small $$ they charge for it,and cheaper used!
Don't be hatin, pick it up and be lovin it instead.

The 3 Stooges still make me laugh and I love seeing the films in color. If you are begining your collection I reccomend this one and the other Columbia DVD colorized DVDs. November 25, 2007

Think of something. nyuk nyuk.....

I have loved the stooges since I was a kid, and these color versions are not perfect but they give you a glimpse of what it would have been like if you were there on the set when they were filmed .......since they have been researched as to what colors the different backgrounds and objects would really look like.... I do enjoy seeing them in color anyday over black and white. For the purist at heart the colorization can be toggled on or off with the angle button on my dvd player, couldn't be simpler. The restoration of the film is very good, and the color brings new life to the stooges glorious mayhem. I own quite of few of the Columbia shorts in black and white and I will continue to buy the color versions as long as they are released......I just hope they speed up the process a little faster.

Curly was my favorite stooge and he was in about 90 shorts from 1933 to 1947 and if they continue to release only his material with only four shorts per disc that would take about 22.5 years for Columbia to release if they release only one color dvd per year, I might be dead by then......that seems to be their average for the color dvd's......please speed up the process.....and one other thing, Columbia please put more of the unreleased stuff in color not the already released material. A loyal fan of the stooges.....



P.S. I would have given 5 stars if they put five episodes on one disc instead of four......

AWESOME COLORIZATION and B&W! The best of both worlds!! by.N.Boettcher

I really don't know what the problem is with some of these negative reviews relating to this , or any of the STOOGES COLOR combo B&W DVD's! The colorization is very well done, and you're still getting the b&w to boot! THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS! So way complain!? Don't get me wrong, i would rather have an awesome b&w copy over colorization any day of the week. But like i said, this dvd series offers both. I really hope this collection continues. The colorization (well done),gives watching these old classics a fresh, and fun look in a whole new light. I think its refreshing to see the stooges B&W prints that i've seen for many years,over and over again done in a new color prespective. I do hope that the complete B&W collection (BOX SET), is indeed released in the very near futher. (With no PUNCH DRUCK BIG BLACK SCRATCHED COPYS)!!! What a crappy print...! Please release clean remastered copy's PLEASE! Anyways..this is a well worth , well done double deal,..!! 4 COLOR /4 B&W for one price! April 5, 2007

Another fine dvd....albeit overpriced as it is

Yes!!! Finally, Columbia has released more Colorized shorts from the vault. I have waited for these for a long time.

Yes, there are repeatedly released shorts on here, including Disorder In The Court, but the previously released colorized versions of that short (as it has been colorized twice before from two other companies) use a much more inferior print of the film to work with, while Columbia's print is pristine and looks wonderful.

Yes, I do agree that Columbia needs to put out more shorts that have not made it to dvd, and that 4 per dvd on these sets is not enough. However, I am happy with the quality, I love the fact that with the colorized versions, I am able to see details that i never previously picked out while watching the black and white versions, and I am happy that these are restored sound and picture quality, allowing me to even hear some things that I've never picked up on before. Hopefully with the next dvds, Columbia will issue some shorts that are not available yet on dvd at all.

This dvd was a long time coming as it is, and I hope the next batch does not take as long. February 21, 2007

More Mayhem!

If you are a Three Stooges fan, you've probably seen and own all the shorts on this DVD. However, you now have the option of seeing it in glorious color. Damn good job of it too, it really looks as though the whole thing was filmed in color! Of course, if you prefer B&W, you can watch it that way too.

A must for every Stooge fan! January 10, 2007
