Advantages: Much better quality than VHS Disadvantages: Absolutely none
For all of my life I have been a laurel and hardy fan. I was an advocate of the "old fashioned" vhs videos and had a great collection of all of the boys films, which I treasured, but was reluctant to play in case they got damaged. This new dvd boxset has been a godsend, in being concise, hard wearing, and excellent quality, so much so in I have even started given film shows, and lending the films out, to my sons to get them into carrying on the tradition of loving these great comedy genuises. There is even a range of colourised films included, which to a die hard B+W film lover was a shocking concept, but I must admit it was great to see the boys in the digitised colour versions of all of their classic films. My advice to all the L+H fans out there is to grab a boxset while they are available and give yourselves a treat. ...
Advantages: Funny, clean humour that stands the test of time. Disadvantages: Absolutely none!
logo and a pic of the happy two on the top & sides. Opening the box you are presented with a row of real DVDdiscboxes, not the usual cardboard or pocket type rubbish. Each disc spine has the part of a picture that makes up the duo's bowler hats when stacked together. The discs are numbered 1-21 with the last one having a title "A special tribute to the boys" along with other comedy shorts.
Please note that the movies contained in this boxset are from the Hal Roach studios and don't contain any movie they did with any other film company. Just as well because the Hal Roach years are the way we want to remember Laurel & Hardy. Material with the other companies were all just copycat sketches which although still marginally funny, were not productive.

Advantages: It's got everything, absolutaly great! Disadvantages: Could have had more documentaries about them
Laurel and Hardy have brought humour to the world for decades now and their innocent comedy style is something no one can find fault with.
I have had this boxset for over a year now and it is a must buy item. It has 21 DVDs categorised for easy finding on what you want to watch. Each DVD has it's own theme on Laurel and Hardy. A lot of the movies and shorts are available on the DVDs to watch in black and white or restored colour versions which i find excellent. So it will suite whatever your likes are.
Laughter, laughter, laughter. When you watch Laurel and Hardy enough you will begin to appreciate that you aren't just watching comedy actors but two absolute geniuses who's expertise in comedy as a duo has been unparrelled ever since. There is nothing more satisfying than having this boxset. You have the complete work of two ...
