Tom And Jerry

More Tom and Jerry DVDs! Sometime I need to try and capture on video the typical reaction someone has to seeing my DVD collection. At first it looks like the collection of someone who has lots of kids to keep entertained…but we don’t have any kids yet. Basically, about 90% of our DVD and Blu-ray collection consists of cartoons, and when it comes to classic animation, I can’t get enough.

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.
