Fantastic news.

Really hoping for stellar HD transfers of the shorts.

Can not wait. Hope the Looney Tunes Golden Collections go blu. Would love it if Disney would go blu with all the Disney shorts. Was pretty lame of them to only have them in the limited Disney Treasures. Will the Tom and Jerry be uncensored or censored. WB seems to like editing stuff like the Hannah Barbara Collections release of Johny Quest.

I'd imagine the T&J shorts would be uncensored since, to my knowledge, they were on DVD. A lot of it was, anyway: there were some pretty non-PC sight gags on the DVDs.

It'd be great if Disney released their shorts on BD, particularly since so many of the Disney Treasures collections are out of print now and expensive. If they're ever re-released, I know now to pre-order 'em, 'cos some of those sets seemed to only be available for a couple of months after release. And I hope Disney have the sense to leave the grain and such alone; I don't like the look of smoothed-over cartoons as much as I like seeing the filmic elements. At least Disney so far haven't used the noise reduction to the point of erasing line art...well, not to the extent of Warner Bros. On their big animated movies, anyway... Some stuff like the DuckTales DVDs are plagued with line-destroying DVNR.

Hopefully Looney Tunes will see release on BD as well. I'd also like to see an end all, be all, non-DVNR'd-to-hell Tex Avery collection. Cartoons in HD are a beautiful thing. :)
