by 3 Comments

Today you might notice that I’ve been spending the day remembering Saturday morning cartoons. Of course, the cartoons as I remember came on Sunday mornings too, and during different days of the week, just depends on whose house I was staying at while I was growing up, mom or dads. I would watch the Flintstones and the Jetsons all the time, and when they combined them in a movie, I was ecstatic, and not disappointed. Now you can relive your memories of watching The Jetsons Meet The Flintstones as Warner Brothers is releasing this cute movie of the future meeting the past on DVD.

Jetsons_FlintstonesIt’s the wackiest animated adventure of all space-time when the world’s favorite Modern Stone Age Family comes face to face with the First Family of the Future in a matchup that only Hanna-Barbera Studios can delightfully make possible! Thanks to Elroy’s malfunctioning tie machine, the Flintstones and Rubbles are zapped into the robot-run future while the Jetsons suddenly find themselves in the dinosaur-filed past. Can our fearless families adapt? And more importantly, will they ever get back home? Find out – in a time-hopping animated feature-length romp packed with all the gags, gadgets and nonstop fun unleashed when The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones.

As I’m sitting here with my husband writing up this review, he got all excited because he too remembers when The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones came out at the movie theater. He actually saw it in the theater. See, I can’t remember if I was watching this at my mom’s house or if we went to see it in the theater. We probably rented it. It’s the perfect combination of two classic cartoons. Picture Fred Flintstone in a flying car with a maid, and George Jetson without his luxury. It’s a really cute movie and it’s quite fun to reminisce.

1000091150DVDFLT  Saturday Morning Cartoons 1960’s Collection V2 became available on DVD on October 27th and the DVD was sent to me for review from Kids WB. I am donating it to charity along with the Saturday Morning Cartoons 1970’s Collection V2 that they sent me a month ago.

These are shows that I grew up watching. I’m a child of the 80’s and these were still in syndication. The Jetsons were watched alongside the Flintstones. Take a trip down memory lane and share the most beloved Saturday Morning Cartoons from the 1960s with a new generation!  This collection offers more of the best cartoons from this decade that the whole family can enjoy! 1960s Volume 2 features 13 shows on 2 discs! Re-live your childhood with this collection of 13 cartoons featuring some of the following beloved characters: Wally Gator, Porky Pig, Quick Draw McGraw, Magilla Gorilla and many more!

There was question while I was growing up about watching Bugs Bunny and Porky Pig. It was the most adult cartoon I think that I watched. My stepdad loved it, but I wasn’t so sure. It wasn’t until I was a bit older that I had more of an appreciation for it.

The Jetsons however, I always loved them, I bet they could do a re-make of this one and it would still be successful. Kids love space and the future of robots. It’s a great cartoon because there isn’t any violence.

 

I love that goodies but oldies like these are going to DVD. DVD is the best way to watch anything because it’s the only way to guarantee there are no commercials.
