    Toon Zone Talkback - "Looney Tunes Golden Collection" Vol. 5 Announced (UPDATE 10/20)

    Like This Thread!
    http://forums.goldenagecartoons.com/...ead.php?t=9503

    This thread over on GAC has dissected the trailer for the fifth Looney Tunes Golden Collection (available on an advance copy of the "Popeye the Sailor Volume 1: 1933-1938" DVD), and judging by the clips, here's some of the cartoons that are thus confirmed to be on the set...

    "Milk and Money" (LT, Avery, 1936)
    "Little Red Walking Hood" (MM, Avery, 1937)
    "The Daffy Doc" (LT, Clampett, 1938)
    "Patient Porky" (LT, Clampett, 1940)
    "Prehistoric Porky" (LT, Clampett, 1940)
    "Porky's Preview" (LT, Avery, 1941)
    "The Wacky Wabbit" (MM, Clampett, 1942)
    "Scrap Happy Daffy" (LT, Tashlin, 1943)
    "The Old Grey Hare" (MM, Clampett, 1944)
    "Hollywood Daffy" (MM, Freleng, 1946)
    "Bacall to Arms" (MM, Clampett, 1946)
    "A Pest In the House" (MM, Jones, 1947)
    "Buccaneer Bunny" (LT, Freleng, 1948)
    "Paying the Piper" (LT, McKimson, 1949)
    "Little Red Rodent Hood" (MM, Freleng, 1952)
    "The Turn-Tale Wolf" (MM, McKimson, 1952)
    "The Super Snooper" (LT, McKimson, 1952)
    "Red Riding Hoodwinked" (LT, Freleng, 1955)
    "Bugs Bonnets" (MM, Jones, 1956)
    "A Star is Bored" (LT, Freleng, 1956)
    "Goldimouse and the Three Cats" (LT, Freleng, 1960)
    "The Abominable Snow Rabbit" (LT, Jones, 1961)
    "Senorella and the Glass Huarache" (LT, Hawley Pratt, 1964)

    Judging by what we've been given, it's believed that there's going to be a disc dedicated to Daffy Duck, and another dedicated to fairy tale-themed cartoons. It's also possible that Bob Clampett will be getting his own disc.

    Thoughts?

    Only that I can't wait, as usual. Glad to see "The Abominable Snow Rabbit" finally getting included; amazed it took this long. Also will enjoy watching "The Old Grey Hare", "Buccaneer Bunny", and "Patient Porky" again after so many years. Since it's often difficult to pair a short with its name, due to how many of the titles are simply puns on catch phrases instead of actually saying what the short is about, I don't know many of the rest that are identified but I'm sure I'll remember them once I watch.

    I look forward to the full list.

    A dedicated-Bugs disc and dedicated-Daffy disc pretty much seals the deal for me. Everything else is gravy.

    lol..ok....this is sad but we have finally reached a point where I don't recognize a good portion of the list. Granted it's still early and there is still a lot more that will be in the set...but I'm still keeping my fingers crossed for at least one Sniffles cartoon...or a Ralph Phillips cartoon. Only other one I'm anxious for is Miss Glory as the only time I have ever seen it was back in the day when Nickelodeon used to show the old Black and While cartoons. I'm also wondering how much longer we can have as one of the previous posters put it "A dedicated-Bugs disc and dedicated-Daffy disc". They have to be pretty close to running out of Bugs and Daffy cartoons by now....question is which will run out first? I guess I'm to the point where I'm looking forward to the day when they run out of Bugs and Daffy and have to really start focusing on some of the other characters. I mean 5 sets and how many Foghorn Leghorn cartoons have we had? I'm glad they got the Road Runner stuff out of the way however as that disk actually put me to sleep. =(

    Actually, most of these are slated to appear on Volume 5, with "Big Top Bunny" and "Porky Pig's Feat" having already appeared on Volumes 1 and 3, respectively.

    has a small pic of the box. The big bonus is the Chuck Jones PBS special from 2000.

    Looking forward to the Clampett disc. And I've never seen the Chuck Jones documentary- is it as good as the Friz Freleng one from volume 4?

    Looks like most of J. B. Warner's predictions were right. Love the art so far.

    Judging by the thumbnail, the cover art doesn't seem quite as bad as it appeared to be in the trailer. It looks like they cleaned it up a bit, at least - Bugs, Daffy, and Porky all seem to be much more on-model now.

    Ah, I was going off wikipedia, might have missed some, or there could have been inaccurate entries.

    Nonetheless, there's still a significant amount of Bugs toons left.

    The Chuck Jones documentary is from PBS's Great Performances series. It was done when Chuck was alive so the filmmakers follow him around - especially to a signing of cell art. It's already out on DVD.

    A whole disc of Bob Clampett? This set is at the top of my list.

    Would "A Tale of Two Kitties" be in that, or is that already released?

    It could be. The only Clampett-directed Tweety cartoon to appear on a Golden Collection so far has been 1945's "A Gruesome Twosome" on Volume 3.

    This set sounds awesome. I'm looking forward to the Clampett disc and the Bugs/Daffy disc. I hope The Bugs/Daffy disc has Ali Baba Bunny.

    This would be the perfect opportunity for it, and it's really overdue for a DVD release. I'm also hoping that we get "Beanstalk Bunny", which I still think is unjustly underrated - Abe Levitow's animation on the "under glass" sequence is sheer brilliance.
