    What, you're honestly telling me the color 2-reelers aren't Fleischer shorts? Have you looked on Ebay lately? You can find 3rd party videotapes from the 80's with that stuff on it at any pawn shop for a buck. Even our public library had the two-reelers in color 16mm prints. Prints like these...

    Marco - I agree that the WB announcement re: Popeye is very significant, you just dug yourself in a hole when you emphatically say that "The Popeye films have NEVER been released on ANY home video format to date EVER." - that's too all-encompassing...I look forward to a very different, better...

    Koch released a "75th Anniversary" 3 disc set of the 60's shorts (unrestored), and several bargain basement DVD's exist with (obviously) less than stellar source material. The Technicolor 2-reelers circulated everywhere in the 80's on budget VHS releases. Amazon currently lists over 200 DVD &...

    Jeff, you're in it. I got home just as the chat started (although I logged onto mIRC earlier in the day in case Id miss something), so I switched between posting and monitoring the chat for the full 3 hours, which is why the results of post #1 are somewhat shorthand in nature. If Ron & Parker...

    Don't forget about color footage from Scrap Happy Daffy. I always assumed that was a B&W Looney Tune. The color footage highlights of Coal Black on the discontinued Turner VHS & LD, "Cartoons For Big Kids", is drop dead gorgeous compared to those underground bootlegs. I would drop whatever...

    Opi, I think the response was something along the lines of some shorts were interlaced, some were progressive. The truth should be revealed in the official transcript. No English subtitles - I was working shorthand to keep the info up to date in real time, especially as the chat went on and...

    Carlos, that's not offical, just a quick summary as it happened, meant to help those who came late. Ron & Parker will have the official transcript ready for posting and it will be available on The Digital Bits and Gord Lacey's TVSHOWSONDVD website. The thread is meant to be the source for...

    I'm surprised I was lucky enough to manage to get a question in while doing the mini-transcription. If you check the full length transcript you'll find it's long-winded but passionate about WB's WWII- era cartoons, hoping they can be thematically presented (like Disney's set) in the PC world we...

    Greg - the word from Warner was that it will contain the original music.
