Does anybody have Tom and Jerry and Droopy dog cartoons in their original forms, not from Cartoon Network? I only am interested in the MGM films.

What's the difference?

Actually, there's a BIIIG difference: The original MGM cartoons contained humor that today would be not be considered (*ugh*) "politically correct", i.e. ethnic humor, bone-crushing violence and socially acceptable sexism...you know, all the ingredients for a hilarious cartoon. Instead, the newer cartoons are loaded with pro-social messages and public-service announcements (Tom and Jerry as best pals; Droopy and the Wolf as friendly advasaries, Spike the bulldog doesn't bite anyone on the ass, etc.) You feel like you're in Sunday School wathcing these things! (and you can't laugh in Sunday School!)

So, if you can get your hands on those UNCENSORED MGM cartoons, good luck!!

Some OTHERR differences: THe ORIGINAL ones have a lion. You know, MGM's. And music by the great Scott Bradley. And BillThompson's doing DROOPY whilst some impostor's doing the newer Droopy! (Though it may be pointed out that Daws Butler and some others DID ALSO do the voice for the bassett hero in the theatrical classics in the late 1950s).
