Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers - Volume 2 (1989) Review

Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers - Volume 2 (1989)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
For the last set I found it really helpful when someone posted a review containing a list of the episodes included, so I thought I'd extend the same courtesy myself:
Disc 1 contains the original multi-part pilot episode "To The Rescue" as well as
*A Creep In the Deep - a deranged fish vows declares war on the human race and vows to free captive fish everywhere
*Normie's Science Project - Normie uses his Uncle Nimno's record player which uses sound to disintegrate objects as a science project
*Seer No Evil - Chip gets a morbid prediction from a psychic at a carnival
Disc 2
*Chipwrecked Shipmunks - The Rangers are wrecked on a tropical island and meet once again with the Pi-Rats, who are looking for a treasure that Monterey and Dale have already found
*When Mice Were Men - The Rangers to go Mexico when Monterey gets a call for help from old friends of his; they are under attack by a giant bull with a personal vendetta against Monterey
*Chocolate Chips - The Rangers vacation in South America where a German man is using zombies to dig up the cacao trees and make chocolate. All of the Rangers except Dale are turned into zombies themselves, and he must save the day and the other Rangers.
*The Last Leprechan - The Rangers go to Ireland where they meet the last leprechan who is being hunted by a Banshee who wants his magical pot of Gold (One of my personal favorites)
*Weather Or Not - The other Rangers think Monterey is crazy when his weather-indicating tail keeps predicting snow; however, Monterey's tail is out of whack because Nimnoe has created a weather machine and is using it rob banks and jewelry shops.
*One Upsman-Chip - Chip and Dale compete to see who can outwit the other last ("Gotcha last!") when Chip gets too competitive and Dale ends up in Fat Cat's clutches.
*Shell Shocked - The Rangers vacation at a beach from which all the shells are conspicuously missing; Fat Cat is using them to simulate the sound of the ocean and attract fish.
*Love Is A Many Splintered Thing - Monterey's old flame Desiree returns, but is still using Monterey and working for a bad badger crime boss.
Disc 3
*Song of the Night'n'Dale - The Rangers end up in China where they find an Emperor whose sister is going to elaborate methods to convince him that he is crazy.
*Double 'O' Chipmunks - After hurting Dale's feelings, the other Rangers indulge him in his James Bond fantasies and dupe him into thinking that he is solving a case in which he must deliver microfilm. While the Rangers originally gave Dale a regular undeveloped roll of vacation photos, it gets swapped for real microfilm that is being hunted by rat thugs for their evil scientist boss.
*Gadget Goes Hawaiian - While the Rangers vacation in Hawaii, Gadget meets Louwhiney, who looks just like her. Louwhiney tricks Gadget into running survival tests for her, and Gadget learns that she has to choose one plan and stick with it.
*It's A Bird, It's Insane, It's Dale! - Dale finds a piece of Meteor that gives him superpowers but the other half is found by a criminal who steals world monuments and frames Dale.
*Short Order Crooks - Two thugs try to rob a bank through the diner next door, but the Rangers, mistaking them for average Joes, try to help them by making Monterey's famous cheese chowder.
*Mind Your Cheese and Qs - Monterey's cheese craving finally catch up with him and he must overcome them in order to save his friends from Rat Capone, who is hoarding all the cheese in town.
*Out of Scale - Chip and Dale are captured by infamous crime boss Ratso Ratskywatsky who gives them as pets to his spoiled daughter Buffy.
*Dirty Rotten Diapers - The Rangers try to bust a criminal who looks like a baby and has set up a series of robberies through a fake adoption agency.
I can only hope Disney will finish off the series with another set soon!

Classic Cartoon Favorites, Vol. 4 - Starring Chip 'n Dale Review

Classic Cartoon Favorites, Vol. 4 - Starring Chip 'n Dale
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This would have been a five star release if not for:
1) it is too short and
2) It has only two of their three solo cartoons. "LONE CHIPMUNKS" is missing and SHOULD have been included. It is unlikely that Chip & Dale will get their own Disney Treasures DVD release with only three cartoons.
Unlike most of the Cartoon Favorites series DVDs, this installment mostly features cartoons not yet available on the Disney Treasures series. The descriptions are already included above, so I will give the duplication run down here:
CHIP AND DALE (1947)- NEW TO DVD but expected to be on the Disney Treasures: Chronological Donald volume 3 to be released this Dec. 11 2007.
TREE FOR BREAKFAST (1948) - NEW TO DVD but expected to be on the Disney Treasures: Chronological Donald volume 3 to be released this Dec. 11 2007.
OUT ON A LIMB (1950) - NEW TO DVD but expected to be on the Disney Treasures: Chronological Donald volume 3 to be released this Dec. 11 2007.
FOOD FOR FEUDIN' (1950) - Only cartoon already released on "Disney Treasures: Complete Pluto volume 2".
OUT OF SCALE (1951) - NEW TO DVD, not yet announced for any Donald Duck release.
CHICKEN IN THE ROUGH (1951) - NEW TO DVD - solo Chip & Dale cartoon.
TWO CHIPS AND A MISS (1952) - NEW TO DVD - solo Chip & Dale cartoon.
WORKING FOR PEANUTS (1953) - NEW TO DVD, not yet announced for any Donald Duck release.
DRAGON AROUND (1954) - NEW TO DVD, not yet announced for any Donald Duck release.
Bottom line: This is a MUST GET DVD!
