Ah, Tom and Jerry. I tried to like this cartoon as a kid, I really did. But Jerry just pissed me off too much. He's so damn smug, and gets away with so much shit. I respect respect the Tex and all with a lot of his work, but...
Random factoid I learned at an animation festival the other day: Tom & Jerry was actually the name of a prohibition-era drink. There was another Tom & Jerry cartoon that pre-dated the cat-and-mouse as well. #themoreyouknow
Tom and Jerry is another Cartoon that Warner Bros. is planning to reboot soon, so a Bluray release of the classics makes sense to gauge/produce interest.
I love classic cartoons from the Golden Age of animation. I can't wait to see these cartoons on blu ray for the first time - restored, uncut, and uncensored, as they should be. This set, and the upcoming Looney Tunes blu ray collection, will be the video releases of the year in my opinion.

Nah, Popeye the Sailor was where it was at.
I'll probably be buying this. That's a great collection.
