"Do not buy this DVD. I was so disappointed when I tried to watch it. The quality was terrible. The colors are dark and all messed up. I've seen these same cartoons on Cartoon Network before and they were perfet. I don't know why anyone would put these cartoons on here in this awful condition. Don't buy this, you will be very very disappointed. I wanted to just throw the DVD away. It looks bootleg. The cartoon titles are often cut off at the top and bottom of the screen. It looks just like somebody was videotaping these with a camcorder while thery were playing on a screen in front of them. It's all shaky. DON'T BUY THIS!!!!!!!!! (However volume 2 is good)"

"I purchased Cartoon Marathon, Vol. 1 & 2 from a discount bin, and was pleased to see a number of cartoons I have not seen since I was young. However, the quality isn't all that great (probably because they have not gone through a "remastering" process). Also, I found that the block of Popeye cartoons on Volume 1 is identical to the Popeye block of cartoons on Volume 2, though differnet cartoons are listed on the sleeve. Again, if you don't have to spend more than a couple of bucks for them, they're worth having, if for nothing else the simple nostalgia."
