If you’re like me, you’re always looking to add some classic cartoons to your DVD collection. Well, this week Warner Bros. is releasing a great title – Tom and Jerry’s Greatest Chases, Vol. 2.

This is of course a follow-up to Tom and Jerry’s Greatest Chases (which is a steal right now), and this collection adds another 14 shorts to the series.

These shorts were originally released between 1943 and 1951, and includes the Oscar winning shorts Mouse Trouble and Quiet Please! If you’ve ever watched Tom and Jerry, you know to expect the craziest 7 minute long cat-and-mouse chases money can buy, and this set doesn’t disappoint.

After so many years, these cartoons are still hilarious. They’re filled with a delightfully over the top level of cartoon violence that you just don’t see anymore. These shorts represent the classic Tom and Jerry era, pre-Chuck Jones (look for a wonderful CJ Tom and Jerry set next week), and the full line-up is:

  • Surfin’ Cats!
  • Baby Puss
  • Million Dollar Cat
  • The Bodyguard
  • Mouse Trouble (Oscar Winner)
  • Flirty Birdy
  • Quiet Please (Oscar Winner)
  • Cat Fishin’
  • The Invisible Mouse
  • Heavenly Puss
  • Jerry and the Goldfish
  • Cue Ball Cat
  • Slicked-Up Pup
  • Jerry’s Cousin

This set is available today, so own it today and keep the classics alive!
