Looney Tunes 2003 Dual Audio Series Served As

As of yet, there is no record of any of the cassettes being offered individually in Mexico.

The back cover still listed the same seven cartoons as found on the Looney Tunes Video Show release, yet the cassette boasted a 92-minute runtime (or, approximately thirteen shorts).

Looney Tunes 2003 Dual Audio Series Served As

Released by Videovista, this series served as a sort of stand-in for the Golden Jubilee series.

Some of the volumes opened with an edited version of the Golden Jubilee animated intro (removing the close-up of the featured characters name), while the spines of some volumes outright stated that they were merely translated versions of their respective Golden Jubilee videos.

The videos seemingly utilized European PAL video masters, presumably because they were already dubbed into Spanish in Spain.

Due to PALs higher (quicker) frame rate, once these masters were transferred to NTSC the cartoons ended up playing about 4 percent faster.

Back in the United States, when Turner Broadcasting started acquiring the broadcast rights to the post-1948 Warner Bros.

Unfortunately, these time-compressed transfers would become many of these shorts go-to versions to show up on television until they were eventually remastered for DVD.

It is possible that the Bugs, Daffy, Porky, and Tweety volumes are actually ported over from an even earlier series released in Chile in 1988, which would completely rewrite the history of the Spanish time-compressed cartoons.

But until complete and more accurate information can be discovered about the Chilean series, then well err on the side of caution for now and say that the versions in question originated here.

In Rabbit of Seville all of the singing is dubbed in Spanish, which isnt usually the case for songs featured in English films or cartoons.

Also, to incorporate One Froggy Evening, Bugs narrates the entire cartoon in Spanish in a manner similar to 1001 Rabbit Tales --yet Michigans singing remains in English.

This video is where the odd Cartoon Network edit of Drip-along Daffy originated, with the cartoon abruptly ending with Daffy pushing the sanitation cart.

Porkys final line was removed because there was likely no satisfactory way to translate the joke into Spanish.

The reason this version ended up on Cartoon Network for many years was, again, because it had a Spanish audio track ready to go.

Less offensive but equally bizarre is an edit occurring at the end of Dont Axe Me, with the short removing its final Thats all Folks tag.

In Boobs in the Woods Daffys song is dubbed in Spanish, while in My Little Duckaroo Porkys opening song and Daffys Whoa, Tinfoil line are both still in English.

Both the grasshoppers opening operatta and his I slayed em in Scranton comments are in English, while the entire sequence with the three crooner birds has been removed completely.

In Tree for Two, both Sylvester singing The Charleston and his subsequent scared version of the song are undubbed.

No Golden Jubilee intro--just a black title card with Speedys name in colored letters, and then again in white subtitles, for some reason.

Mel Blancs voice can still be heard as Grandpups barking in Feather Bluster and as Henerys dads sinister laughter in The Foghorn Leghorn.

Also, in Henhouse Henery, Foghorns Camptown Races scat-singing remains in English, too.

All five volumes of the Bugs Bunnys Learning Adventures series were released in Mexico, including The World of Bears with Bugs Bunny and The World of Lions with Bugs Bunny.
