#Warner archive collection

[dailylooneys]

Finally was able to get this lovely DVD! Now I can collect images of the specific shorts included (Hip, Hip Hurry!, The Unruly Hare, The Bee-Deviled Bruin, Doggone Cats, to name a few), restored to the original quality, without any watermarks, logos, or distorted or photoshopped imagery whatsoever! I'm looking forward to seeing more volumes in the preceding years and to see that DVD's will still live on as a medium!

Have any of you obtain this gem yet?

I FOUND IT I FOUND IT

Ok so remember the Warner Brothers annual blooper reels of Breakdowns and Blow-Ups? For some reason, this tiny outtake from "The Beast with Five Fingers" was always missing from online collections. I knew it existed as an extra on one DVD or another, but I did not know which. However, thanks to "The Lost One" bio, I found another place where this was shown: a 1991 documentary called Here's Looking at You, Warner Bros. Thank you, Internet Archive. I'm not sure why this one had French subtitles burned in but it's somehow funnier this way.

Three classic Scooby-Doo movies are coming to Blu-ray on February 20 via Warner Archive: 1987's Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers, 1988's Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School, and 1988's Scooby-Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf.

All three films star Don Messick as Scooby-Doo and Scrappy-Doo and Casey Kasem as Shaggy. The voice casts also include Sorrell Book, William Callaway, Victoria Carroll, B.J. Ward, Hamilton Camp, Jim Cummings, Susan Blu, and Remy Auberjonois.

The Reluctant Werewolf comes with the 1979 special Scooby Goes Hollywood in high definition as an extra. No other special features are included.

When Shaggy takes Scooby and Scrappy-Doo to the Southern plantation he's inherited from his Uncle Beauregard, they find a creepy manservant, a collection of ghostly tenants, and a fortune in family jewels hidden somewhere on the estate! Terrified, Scooby and Shaggy call in the services of the Boo Brothers - Freako, Streako and Meako - a team of barely scary ghosts. But as ghosts chase ghosts, they all chase Scooby, Scrappy and Shaggy from one end of the estate to the other, through trap doors and secret tunnels, onto runaway contraptions and into dangerous booby traps, with hairbreadth escapes at every turn!

Pre-order Scooby-Doo Meets the Boo Brothers.

When Scooby, Scrappy and Shaggy are hired as coaches at Miss Grimwood's Finishing School, they soon discover to their horror that they're not teaching at a girls' school… they're teaching at a ghouls' school-home to the daughters of rich and famous monsters, like Winnie the Werewolf, Elsa Frankenteen, Sibella Dracula and the Mummy's daughter. But the Scooby gang doesn't let a few monsters stop them from their task. They train the ghouls for a big sports tournament against the boys at a nearby military academy. And the ghouls win! But danger strikes at a Halloween celebration and it's Scooby and pals to the rescue!

Pre-order Scooby-Doo and the Ghoul School.

When Dracula's venerable old werewolf retires to Florida, the vampire decides Shaggy will make the perfect replacement. Dracula locks Scooby, Scrappy, Shaggy and Shaggy's girlfriend, Googie, in his scary castle, where they are forced to dine on everything from frog fudge to spider souffle. And Shaggy becomes shaggier than ever when Dracula turns him into a werewolf! To become his old self, Shaggy must win the Monster Rally car race. But obstacles lurk around every bend: dangerous cliffs, lava pits, even vampire bees! And it will take everything Scooby and the gang can do to help Shaggy win.

Pre-order Scooby-Doo and the Reluctant Werewolf.

'They are the hunters, we are the foxes'

This keeps sticking out to me, so I looked for fox references concerning lesbian love.

This led me to:

This article

https://www.jstor.org/stable/41556801

On

Sylvia Townsend Warner

"Warner first met Valentine Ackland, a young poet; the two women fell in love, moving in together in 1930 and eventually settling at Frome Vauchurch, Dorset, in 1937.[3] Her relationship with Ackland inspired many of Warner's works, and the couple collaborated on a collection of poems, Whether a Dove or a Seagull, published in 1933." From the Wiki

Seagulls?!

Warner's other work, Summer Will Show, has a character Sophie who is concerned with reputation (it's a high society kind of setting but set between England and Revolutionary Paris in the 1800s) and who challenges all sorts of societal norms.

Also this archived article by Warner

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1966/02/26/a-winding-stair-a-fox-hunt-a-fulfilling-situation-some-sycamores-and-the-church-at-henning

Also

Warner has another novel, titled Lolly Willowes; or The Loving Huntsman

From the Wiki synopsis:

"Lolly Willowes is a satirical comedy of manners incorporating elements of fantasy. It is the story of a middle-aged spinster who moves to a country village to escape her controlling relatives and takes up the practice of witchcraft."

The Willow Witches?

Also, this novel was chosen by the Guardian as one of 100 best novels in English

https://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/sep/15/100-best-novels-lolly-willowes-sylvia-townsend-warner-robert-mccrum

Something here might be something? It might be nothing but more TS references kept popping up as I looked and yeah.

The 🎃 messages are giving me vague blackmail vibes, like she's feeling hunted.

A lucky collector will be able to purchase one of Louis’ white label vinyls through auction to benefit the Brit Trust. [Article]

The White Label Auction in Aid of The BRIT Trust – the world’s only known auction of “white label” test pressings – takes place next week on Tuesday, 6th June 2023. This year it will have more than 200 lots of highly collectible ‘white-label’ test pressings – the most offered in the four editions of the auction to date since it began in 2019.

The online/on-site auction is once again being hosted by music memorabilia and vinyl records specialists Omega Auctions from their Newton-Le-Willows (Greater Manchester) base. The full catalogue can be accessed here.

Fans and collectors can bid from a huge selection of white label test pressings that rarely come to market, with some even signed by the artists such as The Cure, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, New Order, and Wilko Johnson.

The UK’s record labels led by Universal Music UK, who founded the event with the BPI, along with BMG, Domino Recordings, Cherry Red, Sony Music Entertainment UK, Warner Records and others, each year join forces to curate a broad selection of white label auction lots to raise funds for the vital work of music industry charity The BRIT Trust – which promotes education and wellbeing through music and the creative arts to support causes that include the BRIT School and Nordoff and Robbins.

In January the BPI reported that vinyl albums had recorded a 15th year of consecutive growth in the UK, with over 5.5m LPs purchased in 2022. This rising demand for vinyl has in turn resulted in a growing archive of white label test pressings – so called because there is no sleeve artwork at this early stage – which record labels produce ahead of the full release of an album to ensure its audio quality. With only a handful produced, these first-off-the-press copies are snapped up by collectors on the rare occasions they become available, as evidenced by the huge interest in the three White Labels Auctions to date, which between them have raised around £100,000.

White label test pressings by the following artists:

Arcade Fire / Beth Gibbons, Portishead / Black Grape / Blind Faith / Blossoms / Brian Eno / Bryan Ferry / Budgie / Buzzcocks / Calvin Harris & Dua Lipa / Calvin Harris, Katy Perry & Pharrell Williams / Calvin Harris & Sam Smith / Camel / Caravan / Celeste / The Charlatans / Chemical Brothers / Christy Moore / Corinne Bailey-Rae / Cream / The Cure / Daryl Hall & John Oates / Deep Purple / Derek and The Dominoes / Dexy’s Midnight Runners / Diana Ross / Dio / Dirty Pretty Things / Donovan / Doves / Duffy / Dusty Springfield / Ed Sheeran / Emeli Sandé / Eric Carmen / Eric Clapton / The Ethiopians / Eurythmics / The Fall / Fairport Convention / Frankie Goes To Hollywood / ightened Rabbit / Gary Moore / Gaz Coombes / Genesis / George Ezra / Graham Parker / Grandmaster Flash & The Furious Five / Gregory Isaacs / Helloween / Inspiral Carpets / Iggy Pop / J Hus / Jacob Collier / Jake Bugg / The Jam / Jamie T / Joe Cocker / John Martyn / John Martyn & Beverley Martyn / John Mayall / Joni Mitchell / Julian Cope / Justin Hayward and John Lodge / Karl Hyde / Kate Nash / Katie J Pearson / Kelis / Kid Creole / Kings of Convenience / Koffee / The LA’s / Laura Marling / Level 42 / Led Zeppelin / Lindisfarne / Linton Kwesi-Johnson / Louis Tomlinson / Ludovico Einaudi / The Lumineers / McAlmont & Butler / Madness / Manic Street Preachers / Marianne Faithfull / Mark Ronson & Miley Cyrus / Mark Knopfler / Meat Loaf / Melt Yourself Down / The Members / The Mighty Diamonds / Mike and The Mechanics / Mike Oldfield / MJ Cole Moby / Monty Python / The Moody Blues / Motorhead / Mott The Hoople / Nathaniel Rateliff / Nazareth / Neneh Cherry / New Order / Nicholas Briteli / Noah and The Whale / Nothing But Thieves / Nova Twins / Orchestra Manouevres in the Dark / Pale Fountains / Paloma Faith / Paul Weller/ Penguin Café Orchestra / Pete Townshend / Pete Townshend and Ronnie Lane/ PiL / Pulp / Quincy Jones / Rag ‘n’ Bone Man / Rainbow / Rhys Lewis / Richard & Linda Thompson / Rick Wakeman / Rizzle Kicks / Robbie Williams / Robyn / Roger Waters / Ronnie James / Rory Gallagher / The Ruts / Sam Cooke / Sandie Shaw / Sandie Shaw & The Smiths / Sandy Denny / Scissor Sisters / The Scorpions / Scott Walker / Selecta’s Choice Series / Sex Pistols / Shed Seven / The Silvertones / Simple Minds / The Skatalites / Sparks / The Slits / Soul II Soul / The Specials / The Spice Girls / Squeeze / Status Quo / Stereophonics / Steve Winwood / The Stone Roses / Supertramp / T-Rex / Tame Impala / Tangerine Dream / Teardrop Explodes / Tears For Fears / The Teskey Brothers / Therapy? / Thin Lizzy / Tom Speight / Travis / UB40 / The Undertones / Underworld / UNKLE / The Vaccines / The Vamps / Van Morrison / Various: Blue Note / Various Folk / Various Dance - John Morales and others / Various – Little Big Lies / Various – NOW Yearbooks 1980 - 1985 / Various – The Wanderer / Various – Soul / Various – Sound of the Suburbs / The Verve / The Wedding Present / The Who / Wilko Johnson / You Me At Six

don't know if I've ever asked before but if you could choose which films (that are able to be) released by criterion, which ones would you like them to do? (in my dream world if they did an "in & out" one I'd laugh so hard I'd die then buy it)

unfortunately my answer to this is very no-nonsense and it's that criterion needs to answer for their blindspots, specifically their lack of films by women, black filmmakers, films from african countries especially, films from asian directors who aren't kurosawa or ozu, and just more international cinema in general that isn't being funded by the world cinema project.

also i think we as a society need to divest a little from criterion as the be-all end-all of boutique distributors. there are others out there doing great work, such as warner archive, olive films, arrow films, and many more. they should be part of the conversation also, and a lot of times people beg for movies to enter the criterion collection that are already in a loving home at another boutique label.

Royal Paintbox | Artistry of King Charles III

Royal Paintbox - From PBS - HRH The Prince of Wales reveals an extraordinary treasure trove of rarely seen art by members of the Royal Family past and present, exploring a colorful palette of intimate family memory and observation.

In Royal Paintbox, the Prince of Wales reveals an extraordinary treasure trove of work by his forebears, many of whom were accomplished amateur artists, and traces his family's love of art through the generations. This story is brought to the screen for the first time by award-winning film-maker Margy Kinmonth.

Set against the spectacular landscapes of the Royal Estates and with contributions from Countess Mountbatten of Burma; professional working artist Sarah Armstrong-Jones, daughter of Princess Margaret, speaking in her first ever interview on film; Royal Academy of Arts Chief Executive and Secretary Charles Saumarez Smith; Royal biographers Lady Antonia Fraser, Marina Warner, Jehanne Wake and Jane Ridley; Royal tour artists Susannah Fiennes and Warwick Fuller and Lady Roberts, Librarian at Royal Collection Trust, Royal Paintbox contains insights into The Prince of Wales's own watercolours, and other works by members of the Royal Family past and present.

Speaking about what inspires him to paint, The Prince of Wales says: "I think, you know, drawing from nature, observing from nature, is absolutely crucial. ’ve obviously been inspired by just looking. It’s usually the light, is what catches my attention. You can look at the same view over and over again and then suddenly one moment, there’s the most magical light.”

The Prince recounts how, as a teenager, the great art which lined the walls of the Royal residences in which he grew up suddenly came alive to him.

“Because when you are small you rush about, you know, pedalling or something up and down the corridors, and you notice nothing. It’s just a background. Suddenly, literally and I must have been 14 or something, suddenly all the pictures on the walls, the furniture, suddenly all came into focus. Do you know what I mean? And they had just been blurred sort of backgrounds which were just there. Then suddenly I started looking.”

The Prince of Wales takes the viewer on a journey into his family archives to reveal works of art by members of the Royal Family - including HRH The Duke of Edinburgh, Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, the prolific work of King George III in and his children in the 18th Century, Prince Louis of Battenberg who it is said could have been a professional artist, as well as Queen Alexandra, King Edward VII, Princess Louise, Prince Rupert of The Rhine, Mary Queen of Scots - and a lino cut of a circus horse done by Her Majesty The Queen as a child.

The audience discovers in the film that Queen Victoria drew and painted thousands of sketches and watercolours during her long period of mourning following the death of her husband Prince Albert.

The film also shows how professional, contemporary artist Sarah Armstrong-Jones, the daughter of Princess Margaret, brings the Royal Paintbox story up to date with the inclusion of her paintings and drawings inspired by landscape, with an exhibition of her work at the Redfern Gallery in London.

She maintains that the family link must have helped her talent develop.

“It must come down, you know, I hope we can pass it down to the next generation.”

As an active Patron of the arts, The Prince of Wales is keen to create a record of his foreign tours that goes beyond photography. For over 25 years, The Prince has invited an artist to join the tour party at his own expense. In Australia, artist Warwick Fuller is seen at work on a new oil painting. Former tour artist Susannah Fiennes provides her perspective on the Prince’s passion for art.

“So much of the time he’s on duty and painting allows him a little time for quiet reflection and also a bit of an investigation of things at a deeper level than his whirlwind existence normally allows.”

The Prince shows a selection of the paintings he has done while abroad, and demonstrates a work-in-progress while explaining the power and appeal painting holds for him.

I've never seen it and don't know a lot about this but do you think A Star is Born would've been good with or for Elvis if he'd done it

it would be a different movie, and very likely a better one, because i've personally never understood the casting of kris kristofferson lol. my knowledge on this is not expansive, i only know what i've seen barbra say, which is that she thought he was perfect for it, and for the version of the story they wanted to tell. back when she recorded her album partners, which is a collection of duets, she included love me tender, i remember her recalling talking to him about it, and that he'd expressed a real sensitivity to her, and mentioned something about needing to find peace and quiet before going onstage, which she understood. (barbra pretty famously has suffered from crushing stage fright.)

"The two superstars met (at least) twice. The first time was when Streisand was performing at the International Hotel in Las Vegas. Elvis came to her show and afterward went backstage, surprising the singer in her dressing room.

A nervous Streisand was painting her fingernails so she didn’t have to look Presley in the face. In a commentary track for the DVD release of A Star Is Born, Streisand mentioned that Presley, incredibly, took the bottle of nail polish, got down on his knees, and started painting her nails." (x)

there's an article from this year addressing this, but it's from a tabloid, so we'll take that into account:

"On March 28, 1974, Barbra Streisand visited him backstage at his residency at Las Vegas' Caesars Palace. ...[she and Jon Peters] had the movie rights to A Star Is Born and Elvis was the first choice to play opposite her as the tragically self-destructive rock star John Norman Howard. It was the juicy role of a lifetime, and Streisand said in 2014, "I thought he was perfect to play that part."

An offer was made and contracts were drawn up. The King's girlfriend at the time, Linda Thompson, said: "Elvis wanted to do it. Elvis was very excited about the prospect of working with [Barbra]. Thompson added: "Elvis said, 'This is going to be a great opportunity. We’re going to do A Star Is Born. I’m really excited about it. This is finally going to be a role that I can sink my teeth into. I’ve never gotten the kind of role that would show me as an actor.' That was a big frustration for him. His favourite movie he ever did as far as acting was King Creole, because he thought that he had the best script and the best chance of showing his acting ability."

After two meetings, Streisand and Peters made a formal offer and Linda recalled Elvis “was thrilled at the prospect of finally having the opportunity to really immerse himself in a role and reveal new dimensions of his acting talent.” The offer included $500,000 upfront plus 10 percent of the net profits. Elvis could produce and take the full revenue from the concerts that would be filmed. Streisand's production company and Warner Bros would retain rights to the music and soundtrack album. Elvis had been paid far more in his Hollywood heyday, but Memphis Mafia member Jerry Schilling said: “There was no way the film's budget could stand two superstar salaries and Elvis didn't care about the money. He was smart enough to know that this kind of supporting role could be his way back into the movies.”

As always, all business had to go through The King's powerful manager Colonel Parker. He demanded $1million upfront, 50 percent of the gross profits, $1,000 a week in expenses, approval on all of Presley's songs and a cut of the soundtrack revenues. Parker added one more thing that was even more damaging to the deal. His original proposed contract is kept in the archives at Graceland and states Elvis would be entitled to first position credit and 100 percent of the listing above the title on all promotional materials and the styling of the finished film. It was unthinkable. [...] Parker's constant unwillingness to let Elvis explore more challenging music and movie avenues meant he would never accept his client playing the role of a heavy-drinking, drug-using wreck. Most believe Parker intentionally sabotaged the negotiations, demanding impossible terms. Thompson, however, believes differently: "I think The Colonel couldn’t make the deal...Elvis did not negotiate. So the Colonel came to him and said, ‘Son you can’t do this movie because you can’t be depicted as a loser…You are a winner and you can’t be depicted as a loser."

The talks were "dead" within weeks and Thompson said Elvis was "devastated." Kris Kristofferson went on to take the role The King had so desperately wanted.

Even worse, he would have seen the 1976 A Star Is Born go on to be a massive hit, taking $80million in the US alone where it was the second-biggest film of the year. It was also hugely profitable, being made for a tiny $6million. It won Golden Globes for the two leading actors and for the theme song, Evergreen. The soundtrack also topped the US charts for six weeks and eventually sold eight million copies.

As Elvis wrestled with health and emotional demons in his final years, it is fascinating to wonder what might have happened if he had made A Star is Born."

ASIB is an interesting little creature in itself - its male lead needs to be charismatic and difficult and tragic, but not outshine the female lead, and due to the elements of the story, it tries to hit a balance with that relationship being both nurturing and destructive that's hard to find. each of the three musical versions has this iconic, signature moment from its leading lady - it's judy singing the man that got away, barbra with evergreen, lady gaga with shallow. basically the framework is meant to showcase her triumph, her resolve, and her grief, as he's struggling and fading. it's a love story on its face, yet ultimately about the perils of fame, so it can't really let him be a romantic hero, he's jealous and troubled and the relationship never quite finds solid ground. judy, barbra, and lady gaga are all luminous in their roles in disparate ways (judy deserved an oscar), but i've always felt the men supporting them are a little hit-and-miss. judy's version of the film was unfortunately butchered in post by the studio, without director george cukor's permission, barbra's version suffers from what i personally feel is a lack of chemistry. gaga/bradley's version is probably thus the best as far as its telling of the story and the very natural connection they have (i unironically love the soundtrack, and think he directed the film well, and while not every decision he made acting-wise nor the kind of odd judgment on her "selling out" to pop music sits right with me, his jack is more of a character onscreen with her ally than the other two incarnations). (also all three of these have biting moments that hinge on the idea of the women not being beautiful enough to be successful and it's angering and makes my heart hurt.)

this is more information than you wanted, but i say all of this because i think elvis, and what he'd specifically experienced and been through, would've carried a unique perspective to it and potentially could've brought out a much different humanity in that character. he'd known the meteoric rise and some of the fall, and while his career onstage was doing well at the time, he'd seen the drop of his film career. i think the fact that he very much wanted to do it and to tackle something a little more challenging speaks to the outlet he was always looking for in his creativity and intellect. he certainly wanted to prove himself as an actor and never felt he got that chance. maybe it wouldn't have worked, but i imagine it vibrantly could have, and would at the very least be a more interesting and textured film. plus we were robbed of the potential musical collaborations there and tbh she needed a powerhouse opposite her. (i'm sorry to kristofferson, but that man was not it for me, no matter how hard they tried to sell it and an idea of sex appeal there. this was also an odd time in barbra's career, even though she was at a fairly high point following the way we were, if asib had been better, it would've had an effect for her too. anyway the conclusion of that movie where she leans into rock and roll with watch closely now is electric, and that might've been even more so had she been responding to a literal icon of the genre.) the whole energy of the film and even its marketing would be different. maybe he could've elevated the character and story. maybe it would've made a difference for him personally. it's one of those haunting what-ifs where we can just never know, but i'd like to see the universe where he'd done it.
