With regard to further Looney Tunes sets, there are two points worth considering: 1) the short time between the second and third sets was because they had already started working on the third volume before the second was even released. Going into the third volume, the word was that the fourth...

While there were a few titles announced after you posted this, I would like to point out that we got two multi-disc TV series (in addition to a few movies). These titles were announced with June release dates (when we were originally told that there would be more titles in May). The...

Personally, I'm still hoping to get at least one Fred Astaire musical, since May is his 125th birthday (but I'd be happy to get at least one of his films from WAC this year). Even if we don't get an Astaire film in May, I'm hoping that a musical is coming (specifically from the Golden Age of...

Honestly, it's too early to have much (if any) news on this one. As best as I can tell, this film has consistently been released on home video in either October or November (at least, that's been the case for both Blu-ray and DVD). Assuming that trend holds, and given that the studios tend to...

Given that April 17 is MGM's 100th anniversary, I expect WAC's April slate to be all MGM films, much like they had an all Warner slate last April for Warner's 100th (at least, I have some recollection that George Feltenstein had indicated at one point that he wanted to celebrate MGM's 100th)...

I don't know about Criterion, but I can almost guarantee that Ryan's Daughter will NOT be coming from WHV. As far as I can tell, WHV has not had any new-to-blu debuts of any catalog titles since about 2015-2016 (I specifically mean movies, not TV shows or theatrical Shorts, which they have done...

While I haven't really been listening to the podcasts (so take what I say with a grain of salt), I could have sworn I read in somebody's summary on the other forum that George said there would be more movies announced for March. Was I surprised to hear that? Certainly. With the 10 film...

Since this seems as good a place as any to mention it, Sony will apparently be releasing the 1933 pre-Code film Cocktail Hour on (pressed) Blu-ray as part of their MOD line on March 19 (I found this out on Blu-ray.com).

With 2024 being Fred Astaire's 125th birthday, I hope that we get not only Three Little Words, but one or two more of his films from Warner's library (in addition to Kino's upcoming release of Let's Dance).

Finally!! Not only are they releasing a movie I want (The Roaring Twenties) for the first time since their late 2022 release of Arsenic And Old Lace, but they're releasing it on 4K to boot! I'm definitely getting that one!!

Well, I'm certainly waiting and hoping for Three Little Words to come soon. I'm almost certain that, since MGM's 100th is April 17, April's release slate will be all MGM films (but hopefully Three Little Words comes out much sooner than that). I may be one of the few people hoping for it, but...

I've been waiting a loooooooong time for this one (and that was just for DVD, never mind Blu-ray)! It might be lesser Fred Astaire, but I still like it, and look forward to finally having it on disc!!

WAC has been having some unspecified production problems the last few months that have delayed a number of their releases by about a month. Some of the titles they released yesterday were originally announced as being September releases (that ended up getting delayed), and there are a few...

It seems like it should be any day now. Most would have guessed last week, but I think there may have been some mention of announcing both November and December titles soon. I would expect that to be the reason for the delay, as it is harder sometimes to confirm titles that are slightly...

I could have sworn that it was mentioned in one of the podcasts from the last few months that there will be December releases this year. At this point, the big question is going to be how many. From my own observations, WAC has (since April) changed up how they are releasing everything. It...
