Warner Home Video released a couple of new DVD releases of classic cartoons this week.
The first of
"Looney Tunes Super Stars" DVD collections features the iconic wabbit,
Bugs Bunny, starring in
15 new-to-DVD cartoons.

There has been controversy over the fact that
10 out of
15 shorts have been cropped into
Widescreen dimensions. Even though WHV clearly states on the packaging:
STANDARD VERSION presented in a format preserving the aspect ratio of their original theatrical exhibition. Let it be known that animated shorts produced during the
1950's were developed to be shown on both a
standard and
wide theater screen since
CinemaScope had been introduced and was becoming the normal size for screen ratios of feature films. Personally, I do not mind the cropped versions of the cartoons, however I wish I was given the choice to view the cartoons in wide screen since I do have a wide screen television.
I have provided screen shots of the cartoons featured in the collection to let you choose if you prefer the standard or wide screen versions of the animated shorts. I do highly recommend picking up the set in order to see all of Warner Bros classics released onto home video.
