2 out of 5 stars Not as good as I had remembered   January 6, 2009
skisby (MA United States)
Not a bad cartoon but it was not as good as I had remembered it!


5 out of 5 stars Opus & Bill - A Wish for Wings that Work !   January 6, 2009
Michael K. Annal (Syracuse,NY)
I've liked this Video for years, and couldn't wait for it to come out in
DVD Format. ( My VHS Tape was getting a little thin )Too Funny for Kids;
Some of the Humor would fly over their heads.Adults everywhere will make the viewing of this Classic an " Annual Ritual " just like 'Christmas Story ' or 'Rudolph' ................ A " MUST HAVE "



1 out of 5 stars Hideous, Absolutely Hideous   December 29, 2008
Lone Wolf (Southern California)
I think is the most hideous thing Berkely Breathed has ever come up with. It has no humor what so ever and the obvious moral is to say the least cliche! Why not simply retitle it: A Child's Cartoon of It's A Wonderful Life? It has none of the sarcasm or satire of the Opus comic strip characters of Bloom County, Outland, and Opus. What others see in this cartoon I do not know. However, I can understand why the character was never made into a movie or a play. The satire of Opus, like with Doonesbury and others simply does not translate well in theater. Watch this only if during the Christmas Season you are utterly bored out of your skull!


3 out of 5 stars Digital Remastered?   December 24, 2008
A. Porter (Tampa Fl)
My boyfriend and I have been watching a Wish for wings that work since we have been together! We used to rent it at the video store but they had gotten rid of it. I found a VHS copy and I was so excited to see this on Amazon! I got it yesterday and It said it was Digitally remasterd however it looked very grainy. I was surprised at the low quality of the colors. They looked very muted. I However love this cartoon and the memories it brings!


4 out of 5 stars Great video, no extras   December 15, 2008
Ronald E. Czik (Boston, MA)
This is a WONDERFUL, short, video. A classic we've watched dozens of times on VHS that we recorded when A Wish For Wings That Work was originally broadcast in the early 90's. This DVD is a good quality copy and still fun to watch. The only reason it doesn't get 5 stars is that there are NO extras. Nothing, just the original, uncut animation. Some behind the scenes, interviews, some extras would have made it spectacular. But even without that, it's still worth getting. Enjoy!

Best line: "Is this cross dressing cockaroaches in crisis?"

Get it.
