* {{Crossover}}: A crossover between ''WesternAnimation/TomAndJerry'' and ''Film/TheWizardOfOz''. WesternAnimation/{{Droopy}} and Butch/Spike appear as other MGM characters as per usual in these movies as well. However to the more astute history buffs so do the Oz characters. See the YMMV page for the explantion.

Given that the connection is an indirect production one at best, and the film makes no actual references to said Jones-directed bumpers, I don't think it counts.


** An important stealth one is that this CrossOver is one to one of the MGM Animation library's forgotten corners. As ''The Wizard of Oz'' entering into the MGM Animation library happened in the 1960s when Creator/ChuckJones worked on animated bumpers for ''Off To See The Wizard''. WB's work with the character since have been considered an MGM-legacy work as much as Tom and Jerry are.
