Steven Spielberg Presents Pinky and The Brain: Vol. 3 (Repackaged/DVD)

Now on to the the Tiny Toons Collection.

DVD's are in Excellent shape & Video Quality is Very Good:Qualifier, my old Sony blu-ray does an excellent upgrade to 1080p, & my QLED chip upgrades the DVD to clear & vibrant colorsSound is clear & static free.I love "Pinky and the Brain". Glad I have the every DVD. For series details, please read the other excellent reviews.The first thing I look for in reviews for media are picture & sound quality.

Are you pondering what I'm pondering? I hope so, as I am pondering why this show didn't go for ten years or more.Our best lab rat 'Brain' pours his blood, sweat and tears into plans in his attempt to take over the world. In the process he becomes, among other things, a waiter, a teacher, a sumo wrestler, a baseball player and evens tries to take a day off from all that pondering, but even that does not go to plan.As with this third and last dose of pure maniac enthusiasm Brain has to endure his one and only friend Pinky - the dimwit, but it is a partnership that survives many trying times. Brain came up with some weird ideas that had me pondering how two lab rats could get the funds for their plans to come to fruition, or how the world would go being ruled by two rats, scary isn't it?This is the end of the road, the last swan song, the last train to Clarksville, the last chance to experience the octaine high of two megalomaniacs, one as genius as the other is insane.To cap off the series Rob Paulsen (Pinky) and Maurice LaMarche (Brain) play their swan song in a tribute for the dedicated fans, which left a gaping void so huge.This four disc set gets five stars from me, as one needs to let go and enjoy the maniac side of things once in a while. For those who wish to obtain the series I suggest you go ahead. You should not be disappointed, as long as you do not wish to take over the world, that is.

Warner Bros. is an amazing outfit. Almost dying in the sixties, with De Patie-Freleng doing their animation work, and putting out some of the most formulaic swill imaginable in detective shows and westerns for TV, (except for "F-Troop", a sitcom staged like one of their old cartoons done live,) and after having the foresight to sign up Stanley Kubrick as their in-house cinematic "artiste" in the 70s, revived their animation department in the early nineties, and, while not as fluid and great as their golden stuff from the forties and early fifties, the writing was ingenious as h-e-double hockey-sticks, and this duo's antics were a prime example. Along with Slappy Squirrel, "Pinky and the Brain" was definitely one of the cleverest cartoon series ever written, as episodes like "Broadway Malady" bear witness. This is an episode with songs like "The Schoeden-Freude Polka", "I'm Going To Have To Hurt You" and "Angst!"...stuff so far over unit-aged kids' heads, it's incredible! Yes, the animation could be MUCH better, but when you're doing two or three animated series at once, I guess some compromises have to be made. I dunno... Disney didn't do TOO badly with their TV animation, and they were turning them out like fishcakes for a while there, too!Anyway, buy or rent this collection, (I may buy all three eventually,) and I can assure you, you won't feel like a stupid jerk watching a kiddie cartoon! If anything, you'll need a thesaurus!! Pinky and the Brain, Vol. 3

WE'RE GOING TO TRY AND TAKE OVER THE WORLD! BAHAHAHAH! This has got to be one of my very top cartoons. I ordered all 3 seasons. The package came on time but was a little beat up sad to say but the disc looked to be ok. They just don't make-em this good anymore. I'm 54 but love my cartoons. Any time I'm feeling stressed out pop in a toon and I feel better! If you are looking for some great entertainment in the cartoon selection this is for you and you will want all 3 seasons. NERKF! LOL

Pinky and the Brain are at it again! The two mice plot to take over the world, time and again in this third and final boxset of the series (at least until Pinky, Elmyra and the Brain, the show NOBODY wants would come out, which is doubful.).Many good episodes include The Megalomaniacal Adventures of Brainie the Poo (Parody of Winnie the Pooh), The Melancholy Brain (Hamlet, with the mice worked into the story, until William Shakespeare is told to lose the mice, since they stink), Inherit the Wheeze (Strong Anti-Smoking Message, here!), The Three-Part Epic, Brainwashed, and one half of the Hour-Long Animaniacs/Pinky and the Brain Series Finale - Star Warners, a Star Wars parody with 3-Pinky-O and Brain2-Me2 (Pinky and the Brain), Yakk Soho (Yakko), Wakk Skylicker (Wakko), Princess Angelina Contessa Louisa Francesca Leiana Origami The Third (Dot), Girth Plotz (Thaddeus Plotz), Slappy Wanna Nappy (Slappy Squirrel), Skippoda (Skippy), and Soho's co-pilot Chewbooboo (Chicken Boo)!Good is the boxset, yes! The show was a breakaway hit on the WB Schedule, and was really great to begin with! If you love Pinky and the Brain, then you'll also love Animaniacs, Poit!

Pinky and The Brain. Ah, where to begin? This wonderful bit of animation history, along with Sailor Moon and Pokemon, came into mywelcoming purview one happy afternoon. My beautiful young daughter sat on the couch eating an afterschool snack and I sat by her and asked what was this new show she had on? I not only quickly got the 411, I fell deeply under the Spielberg spell! I was a goner and as hooked onthe Pinky and The Brain (or Herr Brain as I love to refer to 'him') show as I had been on the mighty Animaniacs...the forefather of our verminous twosome. What can I say? They had me at..."What are we going to do tomorrow night, Brain?Try to take over The World!!!" da da da da da da :-)

Classic cartoon fun from the late 1990s. Great stories, great characters & stunning animation, unlike today's awful CGI stuff. Stood the test of time well. we watched this with our kids 20 plus years ago & now, thanks to DVDs, we watch it now with our granddaughter. Timeless fun, plus although the case states region 1, this set is actually region free. Made no difference to us as we have a multi-region player, but for those who don't & would like this set, then it's your be able to play this.

Great classic

So I've tried out the DVDs and they work and I'm happy to finally have the final volume of pinky and the brain to complete my collection lolOne thing I noted though is that the box of the DVD, unlike volume 1 and 2 which I bought at a store, didn't have the same original features. The box wasn't shiny, laminated or have the risen texture that the other two have, possibly because it's a cheaper version or something. This has nothing to do with the actual DVD itself because this probably isnt something most people care about but just something I noticed that isn't the same as the other two volumes I have. All the dvds work though and i'm happy with it!

This third and sadly last volume, is still hilariously funny and entertaining for the whole family - which is a remarkable achievement given all the detail and energy that went into the series. The familiar duo are still plotting to take over the world, and the episodes are completely worthwhile, but unfortunately the only dvd extra is an 11min. featurette, "It's All About the Fans", a brief salute by vocal leads Maurice LaMarche and Rob Paulsen. Though more bonus material would have been nice, owning this Volume 3 box set is more than fulfilling for any fan. Highly recommended!

I've reviewed no 2 in the series and will refer you to that for information as they are both as whacky and enjoyable.
