But those aren't movies are they? I thought they were both collections of new shorts.

Like I said in my previous post, I think that Vol. 3 was just a typo that someone accidentally added somewhere when they were typing the information out. Here's the boxart, and it says nothing about being Volume 3.

Don't Bugs and Daffy look too much like friends in that picture?

I'll probably get this.. I don't remember 1001 Rabbit Tales, and would love remastered Bugs/RR movie to replace my old VHS

The real question is, what happened to Wile E? I mean, you've got Bugs and Daffy, Sylvester and Tweety, then you've got the Roadrunner but no Coyote. Where's the sense in that? I demand symmetry!

1001 Rabbit Tales was where in the desert, Bugs was taken prisoner by the Shiek, Yosemite Sam, and is being held as a prisoner by telling his son stories. A couple cartoons I remember them show in it was where Bugs and Daffy were heading for Miami Beach and end up in a cave in the desert where there's a fortune in diamonds and must face a bodyguard and a genie. The other was where Bugs took the wrong turn again, and was in the desert instead of Miami Beach. He finds an oasis that belongs to Yosemite Sam

The first cartoon you mention sounds like Ali Baba Bunny, but that's already in the Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Movie.

I assume that you're kidding, but this is actually an interesting point. The Road Runner is not the star of the Road Runner cartoons, Wile E. Coyote is. Can you imagine how boring a Road Runner cartoon would be without him?

Are there any advance reviews of this yet? (I'm sure the cartoons are uncut, but inquiring minds want to know whether the DVNR and interlacing issues are a problem again.)

I don't know of any reviews.

But since they "accidentally" used DVNR on the last set, I'm worried that they might have "accidentally" colorized some of the black and white cartoons on this new set.

We'll see, but I really doubt it. There's a whole featurette about black-and-white cartoons and why they're so cool.

Digital Video Noise Reduction was used on a few of the cartoons in Looney Tunes Golden Collection Volume Two.

In "Gorilla My Dreams," when Bugs Bunny and the Gorilla are swinging on the vine, there are visible gaps in the vine.

In "The Big Snooze," some of Elmer Fudd's facial expressions are affected, because some of the black lines that the animators drew have been smeared and blurred by the DVNR.

The alleged purpose of DVNR is to remove dirt and scratches. But in actual use, it removes things that are supposed to be there.

With release date so close, has anyone seen any better prices than $38.97 delivered for this new Looney Tunes Golden Collection V3 set? That's the price Columbia House offered me in this week's special B1G1F deal (apparently not all CH members get the same deal and they didn't give me any offer code for it). While that seems like a good deal, when I paid in the low $30s for the previous 2 Golden Collections, I got pretty disheartened when Target decided to sell them for $5.99 each.

So I'm wondering if I should go through with buying it at CH or wait for Target to blow out Volume 3 for under $10 in a year or two? Any suggestions?

Most of the online retailers seem to be in the $45 range, so $39 isn't so bad. Considering what the laserdisc box sets used to retail for, either price is a steal in my opinion.
