"Last year I chose the Spotlight Collection over the Golden Collection to spare my library all the Speedy Gonzales shorts. Frankly, the humor is all the same in that series. It seems to be the same with this years crop as well. Die hards will enjoy the Golden Collection, and I am glad that Warner Bros. offers us the chance to decide for ourselves. Here is a breakdown of what is available on this two-disc set.

1. 14 Carrot Rabbit

2. Ali Baba Bunny

3. Buccaneer Bunny

4. Bugs' Bonnets

5. A Star Is Bored

6. A Pest In The House

7. Transylvania 6-5000

8. Oily Hare

9. Stupor Duck

10. The Stupor Salesman

11. The Abominable Snow Rabbit

12. The Super Snooper

13. The Upstanding Sitter

14. Hollywood Daffy

15. You Were Never Duckier



Disc 2

A good choice this time

"This year's Spotlight Collection is a viable alternative to the Golden Collection volume 5, and a lot cheaper too. This set has the very best of the fifth Golden Collection, namely the Bugs/Daffy disc and the Fairy Tales disc. These are the only discs you need from this year's Golden Collection unless you are a Bob Clampett fan, a fan of the 70s and 80s TV specials, or like the really, really old, badly dated cartoons from the 30s and early 40s."

Could have been so much better

"I've bought either the Spotlight or Golden collections right along and noticed the quality going down each year and this last volume is the thinnest yet. You know Warner Brothers Co is dragging this series out so they can max out their profits, but this is an exceptionally weak line up when you consider the library they can draw from.



I know if the next installment isn't any better I'm cutting things off here. If you haven't bought this yet - take a closer look at what's in here and you may pass. I know I should have.

Missing the commentary on individual shorts

"I have the first 4 golden collections. This time I thought I'd get the spotlight collection since the extra disks don't have much that I enjoy. From reading reviews, I was under the impression that the spotlight collection is just two disks straight out of the golden collections. But there is one big difference - the shorts on the spotlight disks don't have the optional commentary tracks to go with them, which I really do enjoy. So I'm trading mine in on the golden collection."
