Extras Missing - By: Brett R. Ray, 09 Jan 2008
I bought this as a gift for someone.
The extra disc is missing only on the US Version.
DO NOT buy this.
DONT GET THIS VERSION GET HTE US ONE >>READ<< - By: Virtual Ron, 11 Oct 2007
THE AMERICAN US 4 disc version RELEASE IS FAR SUPERIOR

AND IS >>NOT<< REGION LOCKED even though it says region 1

We got a bum dealin uk europe, the people who did this version were downright cheap & lazy

THE UK VERSION IS ONLY 3 DISCS, The US version is 4 with lots of extras including brilliant behind scenes footage

IF YOU HAVE WIDESCREEN TV. The UK dics arein 4:3 only. meaning black bars left & right. Lots of these shows were shotin widescreen & you wont be able to watch properly on your widescreen tv. THE US VERSION IS WIDESCREEN . It has double sided dics. On one side 4.3 version & the other side widescreen version.

And most unbelievable of all the UK VERSION DOES NOT HAVE CHAPTER SELECT OR SCENE SELECTION. When you put the discin it just says play!! You might think so what? but when there is so much goodies crammed into these discs you will have to ffw to your favourites. THE US VERSION HAS CHAPTER SCENE SELECT WITH PICTURES.

GET THE US VERSION. IF you get the 4 disc version IT IS NOT REGION LOCKED even though says reigon 1.
Absolutely fabulous - By: pointone, 19 Nov 2006
Virtually everyone will have seen "That's Entertainment" Part One madein 1974 & has appeared regularly on TV over the years, but the other two parts have passed at least this viewer by.

THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT 1 (1974) - Set the standard with great set pieces from the incomparable MGM musicals introduced by a series of greats, Sinatra, Astaire, Rooney, O'Connor, Debbie Reynolds, Elizabeth Taylor, etc. Introductions often setin the crumbling back lot of MGM which was demolished for property development immediately following filming.

THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT II (1976) - This time all the introductions are by Fred Astaire & Gene Kelley including some extended scenes between them & dance routines. This part does not work as well for me as Part 1, concentrating rather too much on Kelly & Astaire musicals, but even so there is a great deal to enjoy.

THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT III (1985) - With Part Three we are right back to form,in fact the whole thing rattles alongin even finer style than Part 1. However there is a different emphasis, there is more cutting from one film to another to build up a better picture of the star. Also some great out takes that never saw the light of day, particularly Judy Garlandin "Annie get your Gun" (yes I mean Judy Garland, she started filming but had a breakdown) singing "I am an Indian too" also Judyin a show stopping "March of the Doagies" that was cut from "The Harvey Girls". Two other outstanding highlights are stage hands moving sceneryin real time ahead of Eleanor Powell tapping her way through "Fascinatin' Rhythm"; also two takes of Fred Astaire performing the same dancein difference costumes & settings the performances shown side by side on the screen & Fred isin perfect sync throughout, proving he did rehearse as hard as they say.

Once again a great series of introducers, Kelley, Keel, Charisse, Allyson, Horne, Miller & the swimming wonder Esther Williams.

FINALLY - Strangely these compilations do not have any scene selections, so if you want to regularly access any particular item you will have to make your own list of favourite chapter numbers.

A wonderful DVD set & a never ending treat for all lovers of MGM musicals.
