Recently got in "The Three Stooges: The Ultimate Collection". Was always a big Stooges fan when I was growing up.
This has all 190 shorts with all the Stooges including Moe, Curly, Larry, Shemp, and later Curly Joe, and Joe. Plus extras-
190 shorts
28 never before released shorts
2 feature films
3 Colombia cartoons
Now less than halfway through this video extravaganza. But there are clearly some classic episodes already - Curly and the Oyster stew, Moe and his portrayal of Hitler, "Slowly I Turn" from their original vaudeville sketch (which helped to put them on the map) and much more.
These guys were total originals. Curly surely must have originated the moon walk idea which Michael Jackson copied, as well as laying the foundation for break dancing. Just watch some of those vids and you'll get the idea.
And, they largely did their own stunts. Tell me about any actors that still do this today. And they weren't even athletes! Curly was overweight and outdid much of what Moe and Larry performed!
Anywhoo, enjoying this feast. But also finding that 1 or 2 episodes at a time is all I can handle. It's too silly otherwise.
Got my collection on sale at amazon for around $40/new. Iffen you're interested.
Cheers,
RR
