    I can assure you they will look fantastic. The existing episodes out there are all from 16 and are on the rough side. The first 13 episodes we've scanned so far from 35 are so sharp and pristine, there actually won't be that much restoration work needed. For those who haven't seen the raw scan...

    The plan is for all 66 HOPPY's to be released in 22 3-film volumes on our top line. The first two volumes have been scanned and won't be "special editions", but we are adding value with commentaries and bonus features. We hope they sell well, but if they do not we may have to break them up into...

    Yes, we're doing mostly PD now, but A & C did come from the estate and we did license all 66 Hoppy films. To find out if a title is under copyright, you have to have a search done on it with people in the know (or go to LOCs site, but I don't believe it's exhaustive or definitive in terms of...

    Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to an end?

    We expect Angel to sell well, but please keep in mind we're not moving forward with scanning Volumes 2 & 3 until we see how Volume 1 sells. - David ClassicFlix Founder, Producer

    No. Sales have been generally very slow so we've had to slow down our schedule. After we announce RASCALS SILENTS, VOL. 1, we have at least a dozen other titles that we could get ready rather quickly. Contenders are ANGEL (Vol. 1), HOPPY (Vol. 1) or THE PROUD REBEL to go next. - David...

    No, as 1) with the exception of 1 of the 5, they only exist on 16mm and are in VERY rough shape 2) our license on them is up this year and unlikely to be renewed. - David ClassicFlix Founder, Producer
