We have really enjoyed watching these classic old movies. They are fun for the whole family. We have loaned them out to friends to enjoy. It is unbelievable when the young kids are familiar with skits and routines that made Abbot and Costello so popular back in the 50's and 60's. The enclosed booklet is very informative and they are packaged in a nice collectors box. They will make great Christmas gifts.

Are you old enough to remember those Saturday Matinees where the movie was a quarter and the popcorn was a dime and the coke was a nickel? I was transported back to those wonderful days of my youth when I saw the first of these wonderful movies. This collection IS a "blast from the past" that had me laughing from the very beginning. Not only are the movies great to see again but the "added material" made this collection that much better. If you are a fan of Abbott and Costello, this IS a must for your movie collection!

I was so extremely excited to find such a treasure!! It was everything it said it was and have already started to watch them. I am happy that the movies are in their origional form as you would have seen them when they were origionally released and not re-done by remastering the picture or sound etc. I had previously owned 2 Abbott & Costello movies and always wanted to own more. I am only 34, but I grew up watching these movies as a child every Sunday morning on tv. My dad was always amazed to see how much I enjoyed these movies growing up and shared the joy and of course the laughter from these movies. I am a big fan, thanks Amazon!!

I love this set, this has all the A&C films from Universal + It Aint Hay. I thought the transfers were slightly better. I love the packaging & the DVD's are easier to get to. In the Volumes, for me I was yanking them out of the side of the outside sleeve, which was a hassle & could damage the sleeve. then you had to unfold inner sleeve to get to them. Plus 4 movies were on a disc.
With this treasure set, you just lift the lid, pull out the movies you want to see which are in a cool book like design and there you go. Open the book and there are 2 discs waiting to be watched. Less cumbersome. Plus it is 2 movies per disc which to me shows improved transfers. This also contains a very cool book about A & C
Going through every single title would take forever, but those that surf the web could easily find whats on this set ( if you dont own it) - it is every movie they did from Universal from One Night in the Tropics to A & C Meet the Mummy..
I love the packaging,design and all the A&C films..I am a huge fan so this was an easy pickup for me.
The co-stars that were in these pictures were also fantastic ranging from Dick Powell to Boris Karloff to the Andrews Sisters to even Tor Johnson...
I actually sold my Volumes before this was released so when it came out I had the money ready.
Worth every single penny. Abbott and Costello were a dynamic duo on the screen (certainly not off the screen at certain intervals of their career) and even their worst movies are better than a lot of these newer comedies...
I will take A&C over any Adam Sandler film, any Will Ferrell film, any Borat or Bruno , or any dumb teen comedy anytime anyday
