WB Archive Collection: Discs On Demand!

[Randall]

We'll have a review up in a bit, as Warner Archive is sending a copy over. I was relieved to see this series getting completed. I'm confident that Season 2 sets will follow.

Shazzan!

I actually want to get that. Not that it's a great show, but it just has something that appeals to me. There are very few "must-haves" left in the H-B library for Warner Archive to exploit, but I'll keep getting most of the releases that they do come up with. I'm just an H-B kinda guy.

The Real Advenures of Jonny Quest--- the final half of the first version of the show reviewed:

There are very few "must-haves" left in the H-B library for Warner Archive to exploit,

That reminds me, DID they ever release that boxset of "New Adventures of Huck Finn", or not?
(Which dates back from the last days of commercial boxsets, when they were all set to try and re-market the Banana Splits, just as excuse to resell the combined series on DVD.)

I'll assume Ben has already made enough comments about the Gene Kelly "Jack & the Beanstalk", so I'll leave that to him.

(As for regular movies, nice to see that after the Archive teased us so long with the 20's silent "Scaramouche", they've finally put the 50's Stewart Granger version back up for sale, featuring the classic Best. Swordfight. In movies. Ever.)

[Randall]

No Huck Finn, but Banana Splits came out in the UK.

Beanstalk has gotta be in the pipeline.

I've got Shazzan next to review, but it looks like I'll have to pick up Inch High myself. After that, my H-B collection is as complete as it needs to be, so long as they get around to Season Two of Wait Till Your Father Gets Home.

And here's Shazzan reviewed:

It's a good set if you like the show, though personally I found it to be one of the lesser efforts of the Toth era.

Sealab 2020.

Any chance you guys could review the pac-man DVD?

[Randall]

Sealab 2020. Hm, actually, I wouldn't mind having that one too. Not a necessity, but nice to have regardless.

We didn't actually get a review copy of Pac Man in, and I don't think any of us purchased it eiher, so sorry--- no review forthcoming.

In case you missed it, we did review that one. (Scroll up for the link.)

[gaastra]

Sorry about that. More news however. Looks like we might get the live action (and maybe animated) shazzam!

[Ben]

Sealab is on the way to Rand, so a review for that will be along soon(ish)...!

[Randall]

Really? That's good news!
