Tiny Toon Adventures: How I Spent My Vacation — Original Movie

I think kids today should watch this (along with the actual show). Sure, the quality is crap, but I can actually ignore it.

Killer voices, clever writing. A pinnacle of orchestra-synced animation made entirely for the viewer to have fun! I <3.

The video quality is unacceptable for a movie I BOUGHT. The video is so laggy and hangs at some times that it's near unwatchable. In fact it's worse than the VHS copy we used to have. I had to download a laserdisc version because I wanted to at least own a copy I could watch without sinking more money into this purchace. Apple. Please fix this. THIS is how you get pirates. Arrrrrrr!

This review is an excerpt from my book “Killer B’s: The 237 Best Movies On Video You’ve (Probably) Never Seen,” which is available as an ebook on iBooks. If you enjoy this review, there are 236 more like it in the book (plus a whole lot more). Check it out! TINY TOONS ADVENTURES: HOW I SPENT MY VACATION: Acme Looniversity is out for the summer, and the junior versions of famous Warner ‘toons have three months to whoop it up. A number of subplots intertwine with two main stories: In one, Buster and Babs Bunny embark on a “Huckleberry Finn”-style raft trip through the Deep South; in the other, a family road trip to “Happy World Land” turns into an endurance test for Hamton Pig and Plucky Duck. Discussion: The original Warner Bros. cartoons were never intended for kids; they were produced for theatrical audiences full of adults. It’s a joy to see this tradition continued. A couple of strong indications that this flick isn’t just for kids: the caricature cameos of David Letterman, Johnny Carson, and Oprah (as well as a row of famous faces of filmdom in the movieplex), and lampoons of “Deliverance,” “American Graffiti,” “Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom,” “Friday the 13th” and “Fantasia.” The flick’s funniest segment, however, is the savage skewering of Disney theme parks in the visit to “Happy World Land,” an “abusement park” filled with rides like “the legendary Happy-Go-Pukey.” Speaking of Disney, don’t expect Disney-quality animation. It isn’t lush, but it’s competent, and supersonically paced. (These kids apparently forgot to pack their Ritalin.) The anarchic old gags still work (they always did), and there’s one in virtually every shot. (My favorite is Babs and Buster falling through a “Plot Hole” in the ground.) And the end credits are every bit as funny as the film itself, filled with trivial disinformation like “Additional Viking Dialog: Jerry Van Dyke” and “Original Running Time: 8 Hours, 47 Minutes.” All this and a cameo by Superman! Cool!

I love this movie, it's great fun -- but this looks like the grainiest copy of a copy of an old VHS. It's absolutely not worth the money. If iTunes ever gets an HD version, I'll change my review, but in the meantime save your money.

I love this movie since my son was little and I'm happy they have it on iTunes but I think they could have cleaned it up some. It seems real grainy or something. iTunes you need to make this in HD or something then it would be 5 stars!
