Controversies
One of the initial Looney Tunes Super Stars releases, this collection featured a majority of cartoons from the post-1953 era..., but in a 1:85 widescreen format. According to Warner Bros., the reason for this format was that post-1953 cartoons were originally presented in widescreen in theaters, a decision that disappointed many collectors, as the cartoons were originally filmed in the Academy full-screen ratio.
In 2011, Ducking the Devil was restored and re-released in its original 4:3 aspect ratio as part of the Looney Tunes Platinum Collection: Volume 1 Blu-Ray and DVD set. In 2020, three classic cartoons—This Is a Life?, Person to Bunny, and People Are Bunny—were re-released as part of the Bugs Bunny 80th Anniversary Collection Blu-Ray set, once again presented in their original 4:3 aspect ratios. Stork Naked was re-released in its correct 4:3 aspect ratio as part of the Looney Tunes Collector's Choice: Volume 4 Blu-Ray set in 2024.
As of 2026, five cartoons on the Frustrated Fowl DVD - Design for Leaving, Dime to Retire, Daffy's Inn Trouble, The Iceman Ducketh and Suppressed Duck - have yet to be re-released on physical media in their correct 4:3 aspect ratios.
