Tom and Jerry - The old school cat and mouse politically incorrect tv show

[Overcast]

Ahhh, good ol' Tom and Jerry. Loved watching that stuff as a kid.

I even liked that movie from the 90's. Yeah, looking back it probably wasn't that good and missed the entire point of Tom and Jerry, but fuck did it have good meme material.

Also I thought Jerry got mind swapped with a lion given how he does a lion roar at the end of this episode but not shown in this clip.

Maybe, I dunno.

Gene Deitch's Tom and Jerrys were confusing, not on the fault of him, but the fault of the Czechslovokian animators who were amateurs at the craft.

If that horrid live-action reboot of Tom & Jerry ever comes to pass, I want to see Leslie Jones play Mrs. Two-Shoes.

Indeed, Leslie Jones will fit perfectly for the role of Mrs. Two-Shoes with her temper.

They had a lot of fireworks themed episodes.

Also Tom gets cucked a lot lol.

Yeah.

The Spotlight Collection, The Classic Collectors Edition, and The Golden Collection (although it doesn't have any shorts from 1954-1958. Personally, I recommend the Golden Collection because they were able to restore the film copies and found some of the original title cards to some cartoons even if not all of them had the original film copies. I wish they released volume 3 though.

Reading on the wiki sites and apparently the spotlight collection removed two episodes and censored one. And they were supposed to release a volume 2 of some new dvd series and this was way before the BLM shit and they decided not to release it because they wanted to censor it and got pushback for it.

I read though that the Europeons get the full shit minus two episodes. Basically I have to buy multiple dvds to get the whole gist.

Also someone apparently put all the episodes on Archive.org.

The Tom and Jerry short the night before Christmas was released litteraly the day before the Japanese attack on pearl harbor?

December 6th, 1941

"Matinee Mouse" despite being a clip show showing some flashbacks. It looked better then the T&J cartoons then Hanna-Barbera did in 1975.

The trailer for the new movie was uploaded yesterday and-

Oh...

The few times Tom talked was topkek.

Having seen that new Tom and Jerry movie, it's a giant disappointment.

Disappointment, you were expecting it to be good in the first place?

 

[naaaaiiiiillllll!!!]

Lots of Jerry haydurs in this thread. While I do like Tom (lifelong cat lover who felt bad about him losing every episode), he is pretty dumb and screws himself more often than Jerry torturing him (which makes it funnier IMO). This is best seen in the episode “Mouse Trouble” where he gets the book on how to catch a mouse and fails miserably (that “come up and see me sometime” wind-up girl mouse Tom accidentally eats makes me laugh to this day — easily a top 5 episode):

Fidel Castro supposedly liked Tom and Jerry, specifically Jerry, on account of he thought Cuba was like Jerry, always outsmarting and frustrating his bigger opponent.

Fuck Castro and Jerry.

Weird: I heard this about Yasser Arafat instead of Castro (Jerry being like the Palestinians or something, which doesn’t make too much sense nowadays). Maybe Castro and Arafat had similar good taste in cartoons?
