This week the DVD Savant has a number of new reviews including: Popeye The Sailor Volume 2 - This second Popeye disc set is just as good as the first volume. The cartoons are consistently funny in ways that haven't dated one iota. The transfer quality is consistently superb, and original title sequences have been restored to all but one or two of the shorts; and Firestorm: The Allied Bombing of Nazi Germany - An unflinching German documentary about the 'round the clock strategic bombing in WW2, evaluating the lessons of Total War and whether or not the policy was morally, or even militarily, correct. Read all this and more in this week's DVD Savant.
