Jetsons- The Movie

The Jetsons Meet the Flintstones All those Saturday mornings ago, did you ever wonder what would happen if the Jetson family was jettisoned back in time? Or how Fred and Wilma would fare in the future? Well in 1987 the good folks at Hanna-Barbera put their heads together and came up with this animated answer. Yo...	The Jetsons - The Complete First Season The Jetsons (1962) was the third primetime series from the Hanna-Barbera Studio, after The Flintstones (1960) and Top Cat (1961). Although the show was cancelled after its first season, it proved a durable Saturday-morning favorite, running for more than 14 years on all three net...	Ducktales The Movie: Treasure Of The Lost Lamp (Disney Movietoons Presents) Another of Disney's efforts to create a quickie animated feature film out of one of its daily TV shows, this one plays like a low-rent reworking of Aladdin. Still, with Scrooge McDuck (voiced by Alan Young) and nephews Huey, Dewey, and Louie, there's fun to be had. And that inclu...	Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Disney Special Platinum Edition) One of the brightest nuggets from Disney's golden age, this 1937 film is almost dizzying in its meticulous construction of an enchanted world, with scores of major and minor characters (including fauna and fowl), each with a distinct identity. When you watch Snow White's intrica...	Rockin With Judy Jetson
Sleeping Beauty (Two-Disc Platinum Edition) Disney's 1959 animated effort was the studio's most ambitious to date, a widescreen spectacle boasting a gorgeous waltz-filled score adapting Tchaikovsky. In the 14th century, the malevolent Maleficent (not dissimilar to the wicked Queen in Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarf...	The Wizard of Oz (Two-Disc Special Edition) When it was released during Hollywood's golden year of 1939, The Wizard of Oz didn't start out as the perennial classic it has since become. The film did respectable business, but it wasn't until its debut on television that this family favorite saw its popularity soar. And while...	The Flintstones - The Complete First Season Meet The Flintstones in this prehistoric Hanna-Barbera production. Primetime's first animated series was also the longest running until The Simpsons came along. Not so coincidentally, the two shows aren't all that different--even if the former emerged in the sixties, the latter i...	Jetson's Millions	The Lion King (Disney Special Platinum Edition) Not an ideal choice for younger kids, this hip and violent animated feature from Disney was nevertheless a huge smash in theaters and on video, and it continues to enjoy life in an acclaimed Broadway production. The story finds a lion cub, son of a king, sent into exile after his...

Jetsons still fun.
Older cartoons like the Jetsons movie are new and fun for younger children and fun memories for the older inner child.

Where's the DVD?!
I know this movie doesn't have exaclty the same feel as the original show did, but it was a fun flick just the same! I'm waiting on the edge of my seat for this to come out on DVD!!

I love this film. It should be on DVD
I love this film. First of all it has a more modern look than the cartoons. Look that movie was made in 1989 almost 12 years till the year 2001, the new millieum. I know many will disagree but the reason why it was released in 1990 is because they won't want to make competition with Disney's The Little Mermaid. Now back to the review. Also Tiffany does an excellent job by playing Judy. She sounded more real with her character plus she sings. This movie should be in DVD so for those who have wide screen TV's or 17 in screens on their laptops then it will defiantly look even better.

Some Good and Some Blah
I was so excited when I found this old movie on my shelf. I remember liking it a lot back in the day when I was a kid. This time when I watched it though, I was surprised to see it drag in several places. George goes through the same comic routine of getting caught in the sprocket machine several times, and it takes forever for someone to come up with an idea of staying in the plant after working hours to figure out what's causing all the trouble. Then again, the film has some definite highlights. It's fun seeing the wonders of the Jetsons' new home, and most of the songs are surprisingly good, except for the one or two awful rap songs. Rap was EVERYWHERE at this time. Most embarassing thing of the 90's if you ask me. The movie starts getting a little environmentally preachy near the end, without much comic relief to lighten it up and make it easy to swallow. Good for a rental if you have kids I guess, but the TV show had to be a lot better.

Tiffany almost ruins it.
When they made this movie, they recorded the voices with the original cast. Before release they thought that it would help marketing to replace Janet Waldo's voice with Tiffany's. If this were a new creation that would have been fine, but everyone knows what Judy Jetson is supposed to sound like, and it isn't Tiffany. I don't think enough people knew or cared about this to affect ticket sales anyways. Since they did record the whole movie initially with Janet Waldo as Judy, if that recording still exists, when this makes it to DVD it should have an alternate track with the original vocals. It wouldn't be hard to do, but movies like this rarely get much love on DVD. Hanna-barbera has given a lot of love to their series sets though, but since Universal and MCA are mixed up in this one, I'd be surprised to get more than a bare-bones movie disc.
