Info Wanted: Colorized Classics - is anyone preserving them?

I do recall some black and white Warner Bros. cartoons being colorized, (mostly early Porky Pig shorts) well before the 80's. The color versions were less detailed than the originals I finally saw much later, so perhaps they simply traced over the original footage.

 Yes, if I do recall correctly, those were sent to Japan and they just retraced and colored some of the animation. That's why they look kinda choppy.

Then, in the mid to late 80s, the process was aided by computer technology, but it's still pretty primitive as you can see if you watch one of the colorized Laurel & Hardy movies.

Now companies like Legend Films use a much more detailed process: they kind of animate the entire movie by hand, using 3d models for people, cars, objects... it looks like a very time consuming process, but the results are beautiful.

I have photos, his voice on tape, video, memories from other people... You name it.

The fact is, I only have the faintest direct memory of sitting on his knees.

I didn't realize I didn't remember grandpa just now, my memory has always had that cutoff point.

I just didn't pay attention to old people at the time. Not until I learned people die, at least. And that was when grandpa died.

I've spent the last half hour looking up old commercials from my childhood on Youtube.

These were on tv when I was 5, 6, 7 years old. We're talking 1993, 1994, 1995.

I am in shock at how many of these ads I can remember watching. Or rather, I'll see the thing now and realize I have a trace of a memory, or I'll remember the music, or certain lines will suddenly come back to me and I'll remember repeating them.

To put things in context, I look at my childhood as a forgotten time, so far removed from me it might as well been another person. It was me, and some of that guy still lives, but much has changed.

It kind of frightens me..... how much information can a human brain retain?? By the looks of it, some of these memories never leave you. Yet, I've forgotten many, many things that I'm sure are far more important than stupid commercials!

And it really bothers me... how much tv did I watch as a youngster??? (answer: a lot, I'm sure. I never socialized as a kid, never got out of the house)

Most of my memories from childhood are a void. All I remember is television and vhs tapes. My grandpa died in 1995 and I don't remember spending time with him. It makes me sick.

    Outright atheists and atheist/Luciferians are burning down all flickers of decency in the world from both ends.

    The depraved try to imagine they can build a glorious new order from this act.

    They can only produce inhuman cruelties beyond anything Westerners can comprehend.

    All this debate over faith is really needless.

     Of one thing I am certain:  UNDERNEATH IT ALL, PEOPLE KNOW.

     Everyone above the age of 25 with a few functioning brain cells is well equiped with a Sense for determining right from wrong and likely Truth from cruel falsety.

     Some just don't care. A great many care only enough to construct absurd rationales and then drive themselves to as much as half-believe these lies to escape from their underlying Sense that what they are doing is twisted, stupid and harmful.

    Some atheists are driven by a hatred for their Creator after denial of help. Most atheists and A/Luciferians are driven by a combination of the denial of help, guilt over past misdeeds, and the heinous thrill they derive from being involved with the destruction of the innocent and/or weak. 

    But       UNDERNEATH IT ALL, PEOPLE KNOW.

    

 Yes, UNDERNEATH IT ALL, PEOPLE KNOW THAT YOU'RE A CUM GUZZLING HICK.
