An article in VARIETY today gives only sketchy details, but Warner has finally announced the trilogy of THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT! films to be released on DVD on October 12th.
The release will be called THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT: THE COLLECTION and be a four-disc boxed set, with each feature on a separate disc, and a bonus fourth disc, exclusive to the boxed set, with over FIVE HOURS of supplementary material.
The Variety article didn't give much detail about the extras, but said the bonus disc has a new docu called "THE MASTERS OF THE MUSICAL", a collection of MGM MUSICAL OUTTAKES, and indicated there will be footage of the 1974 premiere of the first THAT'S ENTERTAINMENT!. I'm hoping the latter is the TV special I remember seeing as a very young kid that had all the MGM stars at the big Beverly Hills premiere being interviews, and eventually all lining up on stage receiving thunderous applause.
Hopefully Herb or someone who gets WB press releases will post the complete info here soon. Knowing Warner, it will be a knockout boxed set (with no snappers!!! Yay!) for a great price.
