What happens

Looney Tunes Golden Collection: Volume 3 is a DVD box set that was released by Warner Home Video on October 25, 2005. The third release of the Looney Tunes Golden Collection DVD series, it contains 60 Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies theatrical short subject cartoons, nine documentaries, 32 commentary tracks from animators and historians, 11 "vintage treasures from the vault", and 11 music-only or music-and-sound-effects audio tracks. Volume 3 is the first in the series to have a disclaimer on the box art stating that the set "is intended for the adult collector" and may not be suitable for younger audiences. It is also the first to feature a warning, given by Whoopi Goldberg, a fan of the Warner Bros. cartoon characters, who tells the viewers that some of the cartoons on the set contain content that is politically incorrect by today's standards, but will be shown uncut for historical reasons, because "removing these inexcusable images and jokes from this collection would be the same as saying [these prejudices] never existed". Future volumes also contain this warning, which is presented instead as a title card before the main menu. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
