Update: Bringing Up Baby, Philadelphia Story, Libeled Lady, Stage Door and others (1 Viewer)

[Eric Peterson]

I can't wait for the "Bringing Up Baby" set, and will more than likely pick up "Philadelphia Story", although I'm not near as fond of that movie and already own the original release.

Warner is keeping me in the poorhouse. I would wager that 80% of my purhases are WB discs. Way to go!

I think it's not even a contest as to which studio is the Studio of the Year for 2004 and maybe even 2005, with these two great SEs and God knows what other surprises (the long-awaited Batman SEs, King Kong SE, etc.).

 

[Alistair_M]

Wonderful News. Love the artwork on these releases too!

Tracy Lord: "You seem quite contemptuous of me all of the sudden".
C. K. Dexter Haven: "No Red, not of you, never of you".


Can't wait!

 

[Rob Willey]

Might be worth a double dip on my favorite movie. I wonder if it is the same transfer or a remaster.

"C.K. Dexter Haven, you have unsuspected depth!"

[Randy_M]

These will both be mine...double dip on Philadelphia Story, but it merits it.

 

[Derek Estes]

I,m sure it will be a remaster. Warners has been very good (far beyond any other studio!) about making re-releases worthy of repurchase. I can't wait!

I am once again Speachless....
Warners is blowing my F***ing mind right now!

 

[Paul_Scott]

SWEET!
as per the '03 chat, i've been expecting this for a while, and was figuring they would tie it in with at least one other Harlow release- but its still wonderful news!
this is my absolute favorite Loy/Powell pairing and i can't wait-
even better, it comes at least a week before i have to head back on the road, so i can actually pick it up on street day and not have to wait to savor it.

thanks Warner!






To Be Or Not To Be is a little more unexpected but very welcome also!
thats one hell of a street date.

 

[RafaelPires]

Stage Door!!!!!! Finally!!!!! One of my favorites. Hepburn and Rogers are at their best on that picure. WB can't thank you enough!!!!
Plus Libeled Lady, Dinner at Eight and To Be or Not to Be. All of them prime classics!!!! 2005 is definitely the year for dvd classic releases.

 

[Adam_S]

Stage Door Stage Door! YES, I love this film!
And Bringing up baby, HELL YEAH!
an SE of Philadelphia Story, sweet I was thinking of buying this.
Dinner at Eight is incredible, better than Grand Hotel, with as good a cast plus an awesome Frances Marion script!
Libeled Lady, a wonderfully funny film
I've also wanted to see To Be or Not to be for some time.

Please put all this day's releases in a BOX SET Warners, that way I can afford March 1st!

damn, I've managed to cut back my dvd purchases, but I'll have to budget hard to afford the warner's gangsters, the studio ghibli releases, the warner classic comedies, bambi and chariots of fire. and watch Fox make it worse by announcing some incredible releases of their own...

Artwork for the non-SE titles is up at DVDAnswers. I gotta needle Tom Woodward here: "To Be Or Not To Be which stars Robert Stack"? Yes, but there were a couple of other stars in it as well...you know, the ones on the cover...

 

[Michael Elliott]

I'll certainly be buying each of those.

Poor Herb is going to be quite busy next year.

 

[Roger Rollins]

Each one of these films is truly a must-have. As usual, Warner preps another knockout release.

A friend who gets one of those "subscription lists" says these are all going to be loaded with extras, and that there will be a boxed set of all 6 new releases providing a substantial savings.

The art on DVDANSWERS is gorgeous. Can't wait for these.

 

[Haggai]

I was only planning on getting the two 2-disc SEs and To Be Or Not To Be, since I haven't seen the other three movies, but naturally I'll go for the blind buy on the others as well if they'll all be in a box set. Considering that they all have the same street date, March 1, it makes sense that there'll be a box set.

 

[John Hodson]

I hope so; it also made sense that the George Stevens releases would come in a box set, but no.

 

[Haggai]

Hmmm, I guess that's also a relevant point.

 

[PaulP]

I was planning on the two SEs myself, but I think I'll go for the box.

 

[David Von Pein]

I thought I'd heard here that WB had discontinued its nice-looking 2-Disc DigiPack sets? (Guess not.) ......

 

[Scott Leopold]

This is some spectacular news. The Philadelphia Story is one of the DVD's that we watched over and over again back when we only had a couple hundred titles. I'll gladly double-dip on the SE. Bringing Up Baby is one of my most anticipated titles. I first saw it on the big screen a few years ago during a summer movie series, and it's been one of my favorite films since. And while I've never seen Libeled Lady, I'll be sure to get it. My wife and I are nuts about Myrna Loy & William Powell (we even named our youngest daughter Myrna), so there's no way I'll pass on this.

Bringing up Baby?!


ABOUT FREAKIN' TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
