NFL Greatest Follies: The Classics
| OLD SCHOOL FOLLIES | 2008-07-28 | 4 / 5 |
|
Volume One in this series features three early editions in the long-running Football Follies series by NFL Films --
01. Football Follies
(aka "They Call it Pro Football")
02. Son of the Football Follies
03. Football Follies Go Hollywood
There's no beating the orignal -- the "Football Follies." But "Go Hollywood," where the NFL is humorously compared to movie productions, comes the closest.
For some reason, "Son of the Football Follies," even with clebrity guest announcer Mel Blanc, never tripped my funny-bone. Besides, about halfway through, Blanc disappears and gives way to classic NFL Films announcer, John Facenda. The whole show just seems disjointed to me.
In any case, all three of these oldies have been beautifully re-done for DVD. My only real gripe? No bonus material. C'mon Steve Sabol ... give it up for the people! |
