    I hope that in the near future, we get The Thief Who Came to Dinner with Ryan O'Neil. I have not seen it in many years and remember it as good fun.

    I have over 200 discs from the WA MOD days and have never had an issue with any of them. I miss the days of the MOD releases as I picked up many cinematic gems that I had only read of previously. WA does an outstanding job on the Blu‘s but the loss of the MOD program has made me feel that many...

    Thank you, Vincent. I don't understand why Greer Garson (or Norma Shearer) are not highly regarded for their screen craft today. I find Greer Garson a delightful and believable screen presence in just about any role. Along with Irene Dunne, they are among my favourites of the classic period...

    I agree with much of what was said in Bill Hunt’s article on Digital Bits. I also have an appreciation for the commercial reality of any enterprise. The major studios have significant levels of cost and the sale of physical media most likely does meet their “margin” needs. Boutique labels such...

    As the Criterion announcements were today maybe WAC tomorrow (as seems to have been the case several times).

    Via the Extras on the WB Archive & WB Catalogue page there was an announcement this morning that a "very special Warner Archive announcement podcast is coming soon". Let's hope the news is for great new announcements.

    Like all the posters on this thread I look forward to the return to the halcyon release days of WAC. The last episode of the Extras podcast gave me hope that many good releases are in the pipeline and we just need to be patient (and preserve our funds).

    Agree Dick that it has been a long time between announcements. George did advise on a recent The Extras podcast that the start of 2022 would be slow. Like you I look forward to some new and exciting announcements.

    I purchase all my Blu’s and DVD’s from Deep Discount who give great service and ship to Australia (Amazon stopped international shipping at the outset of the pandemic). On a podcast last year they mentioned that Moviola ( three part television series) was coming. I hope this is slated for...

    Prince of the City is a wonderful Lumet film; definite purchase for me.

    I would personally love more clues from the Archive to whet my appetite for the releases. In the ideal movie collecting world WB would have their version of the KL Insider to keep us collectors with a hand near our wallets!!

    I recall on the podcast in September/ October 2020 in response to a question that I submitted both Guns for San Sebastián and Moviola were coming soon. I hope that June is when they arrive.

    I purchase most of my discs from Deep Discount- they offer a good service to Australia.

    I checked out the clips on You Tube- some exciting releases coming our way. Does anyone know if the Archive is also going to be available as a streaming service or was that an old trailer that I saw for the previous service? They Won't Believe Me is a movie I am not familiar with but will...

    The Warner Archive is a remarkable source of classic films both on Blu and DVD formats and like all members of this thread I can only hope that it continues to produce many gems for us. GF is a giant of classic film availability and I can only thank him for making my cinematic life richer and...

    Very happy to hear in the latest podcast that the complete series of Garson Kanin’s Moviola mini- series will be released in the foreseeable future. This is a wonderful series that I have not seen in its entirety since the initial television presentation.

    I have just listened to the podcast with Jerry Beck regarding the Tex Avery releases; good listening in preparation for the new release. Has anyone else noticed the drop in volume of releases from the Archive? DVD releases of classics appears to have slowed to a trickle yet there is still much...
