"Dexter's Laboratory : Ego Trip"

As for Dexter's Laboratory, it is my most favorite comedic cartoon of all time, while Genndy Tartakovsky's other Cartoon Network show, Samurai Jack, is my most favorite action cartoon of all time.
Genndy Tartakovsky, the Russian-born, US-based animator behind Dexter's Laboratory and Samurai Jack, is one of my idols and heroes (the other being AVATAR and Titanic director James Cameron, who is also the director of the first two Terminator films).
Anyways, what I proposed is this:
A) A definitive, first-class special edition home media release of any of Genndy Tartakovsky's animation work at Hanna-Barbara and Cartoon Network between 1994 and 2010 (or maybe the complete Hanna-Barbara/Cartoon Network animation work that Genndy Tartakovsky has ever made or was involved in during that time period before he directed Hotel Transylvania for Sony), whether it's a full box set or in full season sets for Dexter's Lab and Samurai Jack-- and something along the possible lines of a “Criterion Collection” for animation on home video—this time, on BluRay, and with dazzling high definition clarity (and quality) and the purest digital sound imaginable on the planet, as well as being, not to mention, done at the highest level.
B) Something that collects every single work that Genndy Tartakovsky has created for Hanna Barbara and Cartoon Network between 1994 and 2010, from the original run of Dexter’s Laboratory (including the Ego Trip TV movie, Dexter’s Rude Removal (with censored and/or uncensored track(s)), and even the infamous banned Dial M For Monkey segment known as “Barbequor”)to all four seasons of Samurai Jack as well as the 2D hand drawn Star Wars: Clone Wars cartoon to the short-lived Sym-Bionic Titan (whose cancellation because of the failure of a merchandising deal led to Genndy Tartakovsky directing Hotel Transylvania for Sony Animation) as well as even preserving, restoring, and remastering all the original pre-Ego Trip run plus Ego Trip in their original unaltered broadcast glory--all in 1080p or 4K HD and in excellent high quality and with maximum bit-rate encoding, as well as, in addition to the original 2.0 stereo broadcast audio mixes, all new 7.1 DTS-HD Master Audio remixes for the best and highest-quality A/V presentations imaginable.
C) Something that, even for an obscure 1990s kids cartoon like Dexter's Laboratory that gained a small cult following, and for any of Genndy Tartakovsky's other Cartoon Network/Hanna Barbara animation work (like Samurai Jack and Sym-Bionic Titan), might also contain the most comprehensive collection of supplemental materials (and not to mention, materials not yet seen before) ever assembled (and by no means imaginable) for any film, any series of films, or any TV show, whether be they live action, animated, or a blend of both.
and
D) Something that might not only be aimed at fans of Dexter’s Lab and Classic Cartoon Network and Genndy Tartakovsky's animation work in general, but also the collector, and especially in ways that even previous home media releases of especially Cartoon Network’s more classical shows (including that of Dexter’s Laboratory and Samurai Jack) never were.
While Samurai Jack, the 2D Star Wars Clone Wars cartoon and Sym-Bionic Titan might well likely get 1080p or 4K HD transfers taken directly from the digital source, all of the original pre-Ego Trip Dexter’s Laboratory stuff plus Ego Trip itself might also undergo a massive restoration process in order for all that to be fit for a definitive, first-class high definition presentation on BluRay.
And in order to give even all the pre-Ego Trip stuff in Dexter’s Laboratory and Ego Trip itself a very, very, VERY FRESH lick of paint in the very form of a massive, frame-by-frame digital restoration that might even bring the colors back to life and in their original unaltered broadcast glory, all without even the side effects of, say, DVNR, reinsert the infamous banned Dial M For Monkey segment Barbequor right where it always should have been (at least in the fourth Season One half-hour, and right between Double Trouble and the very first Dexter’s Laboratory pilot episode known as “Changes”), and even give the dialogue/voices, music and sound effects in Genndy Tartakovsky's animation work for Hanna-Barbara/Cartoon Network between 1994 and 2010 a whole new and very outstanding punch by way of remixed, outstanding and super-separated and immersive 7.1 DTS sound mixes/audio-sensory presentations, in addition to the original 2.0 stereo broadcast audio mixes, to say the least…
They will most likely have no choice but to go back to the original sources, and re-edit and reassemble even all that pre-Ego Trip Dexter’s Lab stuff plus the Ego Trip movie itself together from scratch.
For example, each and every single one in the original pre-Ego Trip run of Dexter’s Laboratory (back when Genndy Tartakovsky was the show runner) and Ego Trip itself will even have to be cleaned up and reassembled frame-by-frame from the original film elements all without even the side effects of DVNR while Samurai Jack, Star Wars Clone Wars (2003-2005) and Sym-Bionic Titan will have direct-to-digital 1080p or 4K HD transfers, the dialogue/voice tracks had to be reinserted and a lot of the sound effects had to be completely redone to fit the show’s 7.1 DTS remixes, etc.
And this will mean a lot of time and a lot of money, probably more time and money than has ever been spent to bring even something that is animated, used to air on TV during the obscure yet (to those who are children of the 90s at the time) simple and happy and innocent time before the 9/11 attacks in 2001, and have garnered a small cult following, to home video, had to be spent in order to make such a release happen, especially with Genndy's involvement.
Sorry it is a very, very, VERY long post, but at least I wanted such a BluRay release of Dexter’s Lab and/or the complete Hanna-Barbara/Cartoon Network animation work of Genndy Tartakovsky to be among the best BluRay sets of all time (alongside even the Alien Anthology or Bond 50 BluRay box sets, to say the least), whether it’s for a movie, or whether it’s for a TV series, or whether it’s for a series of films, and whether they’re animated, live action, or a fusion of both.
