Me too. Surely it wouldn't kill Warner to include these? It's common knowledge that most commentaries are done by the commentators for free, and the music and effects tracks for most of the post-48 shorts are readily available. Another example of Warner treating DVD as a shiny round video...

I'd like to add my interest to these. If Sony needs a marketing angle, perhaps they could be bundled together a la Universal's Woody Woodpecker and Friends sets as Mr Magoo and Friends (10 Magoos per disc, plus 15 or so others).

I think you're right. A robust finger in the face of all of us myopic film fans who have supported Warner -- until this year.

At the beginning of the year, Warner said its non-Archive release programme would be "full-steam ahead" and it wasn't. Now George Feltenstein promises a "very robust schedule" for regular DVD even though it's now November and nothing has been announced. I may be "myopic" (literally, as it...

A must-have for me too, and I can only agree with the suggestions others have made. Come on, Universal -- be bold!

That's Paramount, I think, but you are right, it would be nice.

Great news. Flynn deserves better than the Archive.

Spot on, Joe. Let's hope Universal is listening.

Quite the reverse, in fact.

My comment was not about the economics behind Warner's pricing decision but the inability of some posters here to understand that some of us might be discouraged by it.

I'm finding the reaction of some to the suggestion that these discs might be overpriced rather hard to understand. We have grown used to Warner releasing boxed sets of classics at SRPs working out as $10 per disc (such as the past two Gangsters collections, which had SRPs of $60 and contained...

Thanks! Details here: Tom and Jerry DVD news: Announcement for Tom and Jerry - The Chuck Jones Collection | TVShowsOnDVD.com This has the potential to be a T&J set Warner will do right for a change. I don't *think* there is any contentious material to suffer at the hands of the censor's...

My wish is that Universal will revisit all of its classic horrors and issue them in one big boxed set, a la the recent Abbott and Costello set. The fact that the company revisited A&C after issuing the films on DVD in substandard form gives me some hope that this could happen.

I hope the bonus cartoons are restored too, but the fact that four of them have music-only tracks is a good sign that they will be -- I can't see Warner going to the bother of adding such tracks to unrestored shorts. The MGM shorts may not be restored, however. Either way, this will be a...
