Does anyone have a list of what Looney Tunes laserdiscs were released? I mean the individual titles not the "Golden Age" box sets. I trying to put a set together. Thanks!

In that site, at http://www.toonzone.net/looney/video/videomgmlaser.html
you can find a comprehensive listing of the GAOLT LD sets as well as the other Turner laserdiscs.
If you were to own all 5 LD volumes of GAOLT, you would own nearly all of the Turner WB Cartoon catalog (11 very un-PC cartoons were omitted). Also look for original versions of Volume One since it was re-released with Bugs Bunny Nips the Nips replaced by another cartoon. (Very funny, but dated adventure with Bugs Bunny "visiting" Japan in the middle of World War II. It does contain a lot of racial slurs, but it's worth a look just for the fight between Bugs Bunny and a sumo wrestler.)

There are also two Japanese box sets, 3 discs, 30 cartoons each set. None of these cartoons appear on any domestic release although some do show up on The Cartoon Network. Good luck trying to find them; they're rare and usually very expensive. I was fortunate to find both sets in mint condition for $90 each.

I am the guy you should be talking to if you're trying to complete a set of all the single disc LDs - I have two of each, all excellent, with the exception of Wartime Cartoons. I don't know if I'm willing to part them out though, and they certainly won't be cheap.

Well I have two of the Golden Age sets and several of the single LD releases.

I have the previously 2 plus I have one that is all of the scary ones. Forgot the name off the top of my head.

The scary cartoons LD was called LOONEY TUNES AFTER

DARK. There were 12 Warner LDs, usually with 14

cartoons each though LOONEY TUNES ASSORTED NUTS

managed to squeeze on a couple more. All of

the Chuck Jones classics were put on disc, including

his Bugs Bunny musicals, "One Froggy Evening", his

Daffy Duck as fumbling hero cartoons, the Rabbit

Season-Duck Season trilogy, and several of his Road

Runner cartoons of the 1950s. They also did a good

job of selecting Friz Freleng's best work including

many of the funniest Tweety cartoons and the Freleng

musicals like "Three Little Bops", and "Show Biz

Bugs". One thing that has always baffled me, though,

is why Foghorn Leghorn was so underrepresented. On

the Warner Bros. domestic 12 discs, there is not

one Leghorn cartoon. And only one of them was on

the Japanese LDs, and that was only because it also

starred Daffy Duck.

If VCD quality doesn't bother you, most of the Japanese

LDs have been rereleased as VCDs. They include the

Stars of Space Jam and Bugs and Friends sets, and there

are even VCDs with cartoons never released on LD.

Rather begs the question. What is wrong with rereleasing

these compilations, as they are, on DVD?

Perhaps because Robert McKimpson (sp?) may not be as well respected in the animation community as Chuck Jones and Friz Freeling? Personally I love McKimpson's brash visual style a great deal, and the Foghorn Leghorn cartoons are some of my favorites.
