  A great family film!! March 13, 2002 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I would recommened this item to anyone who is interested in high adventure and plenty of exitment! Little Nemo is a great film for the whole family and is worth watching more than once! br Nemo is a brave young boy who, in his dreams,get's flown to a mystical land called Slumberland and is threatened with some hard choices. But our little hero never fails to make the right choices in the end. Nemo runs into many characters throughout the story many quite bad but some good. br I definatly ecourage this film to you and all your friends! It's great and if you've never seen it then you're really missing out!
  Great Transfers And History... October 13, 2001 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I unexpectedly ran across a copy of this at a store that was closing it out, and wouldn't part with it for anything. Anybody who has seen a documentary about the history of animation has seen clips from these films, and here they are complete and in one place! Amazing stuff. The version of "Gertie The Dinosaur" here is the later one-when McCay wasen't using it as part of his act, the additional material was needed for it to make sense. (The titles fill in for his spoken words). Grab this by any means-it is beautiful, surreal, and beyond historic.
  Anmation History on DVD January 23, 2000 20 out of 23 found this review helpful
Winsor McCay is the influence and mentor of such greats as Walt Disney and Chuck Jones, and the father of motion cartoons. This DVD contains all known moving cartoons of Winsor McCay, all created between 1911 and 1921.pMost of these films come from a stroke of luck: the nitrates were found in a Long Island garage belonging to a friend of McCay's son Robert in 1947. Many of the canisters were in a serious state of deterioration, some of them turning to dust in the hands of the discoverers. The 8-dozen canisters were eventually turned over to La Cinematheque Quebecoise for restoration. Luckily for us, most of them were successfully transferred to safety stock and that's what we see here.pTo today's standards, much of the animation is quite crude, but it's important to remember we have computers, animation teams, professional storywriters, not to mention almost 100 years of practice. The Winsor McCay cartoons were completed by 1 man who created an entire industry with his pen.pEach cartoon is hand drawn by McCay: thousands of drawing in each, and sections of 'Little Nemo', his earliest known work, are even hand colored frame-by-frame!pMcCay is also responsible for the 1st repeated cartoon character: Gertie the Dinosaur. McCay contructed Gertie to assist him is a vaudeville routine in which he projected the cartoon behind him, stood in front and interacted with the dinosaur, thus creating the first multimedia live and animation interaction in history.pOther high points of this DVD are the darkly ominous 'Sinking of the Lusitania', 'The Centaurs' and 'Flip's Circus'.pI rated the DVD 4 out of 5 because although this is truly an amazing and complete DVD, the cartoons themselves are not as entertaining as I hoped. They need to be taken in small doeses, otherwise you will quickly lose interest. Their true value comes from their history, heritage and the creative mind of Winsor McCay.pI recommend this DVD to those who wish to see history and appreciate innovation. It will bore your average modern child, as the entertainment stimulation factor is quite low.
