Our wishes may just come true, gents; I got this from The Golden Age Cartoons Forum, courtesy of one of its members, Javeman!

According to PaulP from the Home Theatre Forums:

"I emailed Jerry Beck after reading this post over at DVDTalk:"

quote:
What would also be cool, is if WB would release the remaining Tom and Jerry shorts as well. As you can see on the linked site, there were 13 Gene Deitch and 34 Chuck Jones shorts made after the initial 114 "classic" shorts, so that could very well be the 4th 2-disc set. And then there were 48 more shorts made in 1975 by Hanna-Barbera, which could be the 5th set (probably 3 discs this time).

"I asked him this question and his reply was:"

quote:
Warner Bros. is aware it owns the rights to all TOM & JERRY cartoons - including the Jones, Deitch and TV cartoons. We do not plan to release any of the later post-MGM cartoons on these collectors sets until after theatrical Hanna-Barbera cartoons were all released.

(However, some Gene Deitch and Chuck Jones Tom & Jerry's have already been released on earlier Warner dvds aimed at kids)

So keep your fingers crossed! We may just get our break yet!
