Description

Van Beuren’s Tom and Jerry cartoons, produced from 1931 through 1933, are fun, surreal & tuneful, rivaling the Fleischer cartoons in their odd adventures and great musical scores by Gene Rodemich.

Classic animation fans have enjoyed these quirky little cartoons for their pre-code humor and rubber-hose animation style. They’re some of the most memorable films the studio produced. Thunderbean is proud to present this special Blu-ray collection featuring all 26 of the series in all new digital masters, restored from the best known 16mm and 35mm materials, including Piano Tooners from the original camera negative.

    Another wonderful release! Quality on this Blu-ray is superior to the DVD version, with newer scans and even the OCN version of Piano Tooners. Also some cartoons including Polar Pals and A Swiss Trick have 35mm prints. Many of the 16mm prints also look great and like 35mm. Some have original titles and some titles are recreated. That also has been improved since the DVD version was made. Some you can’t even tell were recreated. Steve has outdone himself again! Highly recommend for cartoon lovers and collectors alike!

    Tom and Jerry, with its distinct characters and slapstick humor, reflects the learning curve of animators as they grappled with the evolving techniques and technologies of their time. The series serves as a historical marker, illustrating the creative endeavors and perseverance of those early animators, whose trials and tribulations ultimately laid the groundwork for the sophisticated animated masterpieces that would follow. In this way, future generations have reaped the benefits of the lessons learned during the formative years of animation, with Tom and Jerry standing as a charming and enduring reminder of the art’s evolutionary journey.

    The realm of early animation may not resonate with every audience due to its occasional clumsiness and perceived detachment from contemporary sensibilities. An exemplar of this era is the timeless cartoon series, Tom and Jerry, which stands as a testament to the developmental phase of animation. In this pioneering stage, animators were honing their craft, encountering challenges, and navigating the uncharted waters of this innovative art.

    I am pleased to discover the availability of these high-quality versions of Van Beuren’s Tom and Jerry cartoons on Blu-ray. The visual appeal of the cartoons is noteworthy, and I wholeheartedly recommend this Blu-ray collection
