[Dave Koch]

any ideas what will be on them?

 

[Jeff_A]

and...
Wartime Cartoons!

You're pumping me up, Patrick! Can you provide any more information?

 

[JohnS]

WOW!

Goofy, Mickey in B&W and Wartime cartoons!!

I just hope they make these DVD sets a little less confusing to some people

Ex. Putting some carttons on menus and others as easter eggs.

 

[Kyle McKnight]

Too bad they didn't ask him about DVDpreview

 

[Dave Koch]

I was watching Der Fuerher's Face last night with some friends, and that one still kills me! I sure hope that is included (so I can get a better copy...)

Somehow, I doubt we'll see Mellerdrama Mickey Or Trader Mickey...

I hope they will continue the uncut theme to this release!

What happened to The Scarecrow and True Life adventures?

But I do prefer their replacements.

 

[Markus Lidstrom]

I'll pick up Mickey in B&W, and Wartime Cartoons. The others dont interest me that much.

edit: any dates?

 

[Patrick McCart]

Scarecrow and Dr. Syn were aliases for the titles.

I PRAY that the Wartime Cartoons are uncut. Even tho promised as uncut and uncensored, the last batch of Treasures were censored and cut.

Actually, no.
Three Little Pigs was from the 1940's reissue print (preffered by Walt Disney) and The Skelaton Dance was also taken from a reissue print.
Clock Cleaners has been rumored to be censored, but I didn't hear anything dubbed over or looped. (And I can tell censorship when I see/hear it)
It wouldn't make sense for Disney to edit Clock Cleaners, when they had Pluto's Judgement Day, Woodland Cafe, Who Killed Cock Robin, and The China Plate uncut. That's like making a TV version of Goodfellas by just cutting out the violence.

 

[ScottR]

I wish the feature "Victory through Air Power" would be included in this collection.

If there is editing in "Clock Cleaners," it is likely the thing described at the end of the article here:

I'll have to go check my MM in Living Color set & see if that really is what is going on (unless somebody beats me to it).
Looking forward to these new Treasures!! I'll probably get them all except maybe "Behind the Scenes"-- I'll need a little more detail as to what's there first.

 

[Dan Brecher]

Jumping for joy here... I can't wait for these!

[Ronald Epstein]

Fantastic!

Disney comes through again!

 

[Artur Meinild]

What's the wartime cartoons about? Is it a series of shorts like Silly Symphonies?
EDIT: This must be it...
Link Removed
Don't you think there will be more than 10 shorts in the set?

 

[MatthewA]

I look forward to these.

 

[Douglas R]

I certainly can't wait for these especially as I didn't have the black & white Mickey Mouse laser disc set. There were about 60 b&w MM cartoons so a double disc DVD set will presumably contain about 30 of them. The wartime cartoons sound particularly interesting. Apart from Der Fuehrer's Face, which I've never seen, I hope Education for Death:The Making of a Nazi will be included which, from descriptions I've read, sounds extraordinary. Victory Through Air Power is a fascinating film which I'd also like to see included although I suspect it may be too lengthy for this compilation. I wonder if the numerous Donald Duck cartoons in which he is an army private, and which are rarely if ever shown, will be included.

Douglas, the run time of the Mickey Mouse in Black and White LaserDisc collection was 244 minutes. They shouldn't have any trouble fitting them all on a two DVD set.

CRAP! There goes $80+ in addition to everything else coming out this year.
At least when I read the titles off to my wife she said, "Sounds like we need those."
