Talk:Looney Tunes - The Heckling Hare Lost Ending (1941)/@comment-65.194.222.23-20140124153704/@comment-2020154-20140124160952

Maybe this Wiki should have a forum specifically for 'I Could've Sworn...' regarding instances like these.

I do have a crazy thought on 'Hare'. In my day, cartoon reels were shipped out to schools to show on days kids couldn't go outside - no VHS, No DVD, no Bloody A, No Bloody C, and No Bloody D...oops Star Trek--sorry. Mayyyybe - extreme maybe - somehow someway reels of this half-remembered stuff made it onto these school-bound cartoon compilations - after all, they would have been low-priority to the studios handing them out, and likely not given to their top tier of employees to work on. If unused footage was lying around and meant not to be used, maybe a marginal employee wouldn't know any better and spliced it in when the reels broke. This practice in schools obviously stopped with home video, and when these reels were sent back, the studios might not even know this stuff was on there. There was some freaky stuff on these reels you just never see anymore.

Just a thought.
