Warner Archive Podcast show

Summary: We are delighted to herald this stunning new 2018 Blu-ray presentation of The Hanging Tree (1959) starring Gary Cooper in a unique cinematic combination of six-gun spectacle and human parable. Then we take off with the legendary purveyors of kid vid classics Arthur Rankin, Jr. and Jules Bass as they swung for the heavens with a decidedly A-list all-ages animated fantasy fest culled from two superior literary sources The Flight of Dragons (1982) on Blu-ray. Teen Titans Season 1 (2003) Blu-ray shows off where the world of DC animation took a left turn at anime town and came up with this classic inspired by Wolfman and Perez's legendary New Teen Titans run of comics and the wild world of Japanimation under the genius aegis of creator Glen Murakami. Then we discuss the new release of Trial and Error Season 1 on DVD- a faux non-fiction 'true' crime sit-dramedy from creators Jeff Astrof (The New Adventures of Old Christine) and Matt Miller (Forever). The Super (1991) starring Joe Pesci and Judgement Night (1993) starring Emilio Estevez and Cuba Gooding, Jr. may have been out before, but are making their WB DVD debuts. Richard Linklater's subUrbia (1996) makes it's DVD debut featuring a screenplay by Eric Bogosian and starring Parker Posey, Steve Zahn and Giovanni Ribisi. Classics back in print on DVD include Too Many Girls (1940) starring Lucille Ball, The Nun's Story (1959) starring Audrey Hepburn along with The Sundowners (1960) and Home from the Hill (1960) both starring Robert Mitchum.
