Warner Archive's Got a Gorilla for Sale

 Warner Archive's Blu-Ray release of Frankenstein Jr. and The Impossibles basically just came out, but they're already prepping for another Hanna-Barbera release. This time, it's Magilla Gorilla, coming home on March 25th.


Put together using 4K scans of the original negatives, the series will be spread across three discs. The original opening and closing are included, as are the bridges. Below is a list of the special features you'll find in this release. Owners of the DVD set will notice these are the same bonuses (as is standard for these releases), but I thought I'd share them for anyone curious.

  • Magilla Theme Song: Live and Unplugged
  • Mr. Peebles Pet Shop featurette
  • Here Comes a Star TV special

Overall, this looks like it'll be yet another solid title from Warner Archive, though I hope they begin to put out more of Hanna-Barbera's earlier productions in the future. Nothing against the late-sixties shows, I just prefer their work in the years prior. Given how many releases they put out last year, I'm sure they're only getting started for this year.
