DVD Description
Collection that brings together ten of Walt Disney’s best-loved films. Includes: MARY POPPINS, ALICE IN WONDERLAND, DUMBO, ROBIN HOOD, BROTHER BEAR, TARZAN, DINOSAUR, SWORD IN THE STONE, BEDKNOBS AND BROOMSTICKS and MULAN.
Advantages: Amazingly low price, large selection of shorts, good intros and bonuses, great packaging Disadvantages: Maybe not for those who prefer modern CGI to the charms of traditional animation
...What can you say?! It's Mickey Mouse, the one that started it all - seen here in a brilliant collection of his very first technicolor short films. Brilliant music, stunning character animation and pure fun. 70 Years on, it still doesn't get much better than this.
Highlights include the wonderful "Clock Cleaners" and Mickey's very first technicolour short film, "The Band Concert". Leonald Maltin's introductions continue to be enthusiastic but also quite open-minded and a refreshing way for Disney to introduce the shorts which, in some cases, are pretty surprising by today's expectations of The WaltDisney Company!
In such an affordable collection, this really is a must for anyone who enjoys Disney DVDs, I can't recommend it highly enough. Unfairly relegated to "bargain bin" fodder, you really ought to snap this up at bargain price...

Advantages: Brilliant family films, Disney quality picture & sound Disadvantages: Some parts a bit unrealistic in eight below
...various internet sites such as eBay.
As it is now 2 years since Eight below came out it should be quite cheap to buy now and well worth getting as a good family movie to watch.
These films both are of brilliant quality and I doubt you would be disappointed by either of them. The amazing sort of film WaltDisney have been producing for years and have I have not been disappointed by them with these films, a great couple of films to add to any ones WaltDisneycollection.
Definitely a 5 star rated boxset from me!!
Hope this review helps anyone looking at buying this boxset or the single DVDs or anyone that reads this might now consider buying these for their children and themselves as a family to watch, or even for the big kids such as me :-)...
