GAY PURR-EE (1962) is a forgotten classic of 1960s animation.  But the newly remastered Blu-ray release from the Warner Archive has restored the film to the rich, vibrant colors and sound that showcases the original artistry of Chuck Jones and Judy Garland. Animation and film historian Jerry Beck, film historian and Judy Garland expert John Fricke, and Warner Bros' George Feltenstein join the podcast to discuss the production history of the film, how Judy Garland was brought on board, and  why the film has struggled to attain the stature it rightly deserves.  We also provide a full review of the stunning new Blu-ray remaster, all of the robust extras, and an explanation of the differences between the film sound and the previously released film soundtrack."Gay Purr-ee" was ahead of its time and poorly marketed by UPA and Warner Bros upon its initial release.  While this new Warner Archive Blu-ray cannot rectifiy the past, it showcases the artistry and importance of the film for animation fans, Judy Garland devotees, and film collectors everywhere, and will hopefully lead to a newfound appreciation for the brilliance of the film.Purchase on Amazon: GAY PURR-EE BLU-RAY The Extras Facebook pageThe Extras Twitter Warner Archive & Warner Bros Catalog GroupOtaku Media produces podcasts, behind-the-scenes extras, and media that connect creatives with their fans and businesses with their consumers.

Synopsis: You know the man at a glance... and he still carries a badge. He's Don Johnson, the rugged Miami Vice star now prowling L.A.'s mean streets as Det. Jerry Beck in Dead Bang, an explosive thriller drawn from Beck's true-life exploits, and directed by John Frankenheimer. Beck's life is on the skids. His wife has left him, his apartment is a dump and his recent companions come in bottles or cans. The one thing he has going for him is his work as a good cop, but even that quality is questioned by authorities who don't like his hard-driving ways. Dead Bang's dangers hover and rumble like thunderclouds... and its lead role suits Johnson dead-on. The dynamic star is riveting as the cop whose street smarts and instinct for trouble put him on the trail of a gang of murderous white supremacists... and into a bullet-frenzied firestorm in their subterranean Colorado headquarters. “He's obsessed with his work and doesn't trust anyone”, is how director Frankenheimer describes Beck. “He takes an emotional and physical journey that can give audiences one hell of a ride.” It's a ride without handrails, seat belts or brakes, a headlong plunge into the heroics of a cop pushed to the max. ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: LISTENER FEEDBACK: Leave us your voicemail feedback at (484) 577-3876.

The World Celebrated Bugs In Drag the Day Before 'Bugs Bunny Day' So you know what that Means! "MARSHA!" Hello and Welcome to the best Looney Tunes Podcast on the web! This week on the pod, I sit down with Jenny Lorenzo (Jellystone, Victor and Valentina) to discuss the Gender Politics in Classic Cartoons namely, Bugs in Drag! "In the 1992 movie Wayne's World, Garth Algar asks the question, "Did you ever find Bugs Bunny attractive when he put on a dress and played a girl bunny? His buddy Wayne didn't, but Elmer Fudd, Yosemite Sam, and the Tasmanian Devil are just a few of the many males who have been bewitched, bothered and bewildered by Bugs' seemingly endless wardrobe of women's clothing." - A passage from the Ultimate Looney Tunes Guide.    Looney Tunes In the NEWS: Porky's Hare Hunt (April 30th, 1938) - First Appearance of The Happy Rabbit (prototype for Bugs Bunny)   Apparently He's Never Watched Bugs Bunny! This conversation ties into why Bugs was trending the literal day before 'Bugs Bunny Day' (April 30th), due to the out of touch words of Ron DeSantis who claimed that old cartoons didn't challenge gender norms.  Cartoon Shorts Discussed:  Hare Trimmed - Dir. Friz Freleng (1953) Story by Warren Foster - "Always a bridesmaid, never a bride." Bedevilled Rabbit - Dir. Bob McKimsom (1957) Story by Tedd Pierce - "She's a nice lady." Rabbit Seasoning - Dir. Chuck Jones (1952) Story by Michael Maltese - "I would just love a duck dinner. "     Snippet from the Jerry Beck penned, Ultimate Looney Tunes Visual Guide!     Follow Jenny Lorenzo: Podcast: Hyphenated with Joanna Hausmann and Jenny Lorenzo Website: JennyLorenzo.com   Follow the Podcast: @ThisMeansPod.

“Here's what I do.”Legendary animation historian Jerry Beck is back for part two of a multi-episode discussion on Looney Tunes.  In this episode, we dive into a fun-filled review of Jerry's fascinating career curating Looney Tunes titles.  He explains the genius he has in hunting and finding and cataloging old cartoons (like all genius, it is actually unexplainable).  We try and puzzle out when he and legendary Warner Bros executive George Feltenstein first started curating the Looney Tunes catalog, with little success.  But we pick up with the 1996 merger of Warner Bros and Turner, which brought all of the Looney Tunes cartoons from the MGM library back under the WB banner.  That allowed Jerry to work with Columbia House for their VHS Looney Toons compilations in the late 1990's.  That research was useful when he began his curation with George Feltenstein on the fan-favorite Looney Tunes Golden Collection, which was an immediate commercial success.  That led to five more volumes and then the Blu-ray releases on the Looney Tunes Platinum Collection.  Along the way we make a side journey to a military base for some film research, discuss the value live theatrical screenings have had on Jerry's instincts for interesting cartoon curation, and learn about Jerry's passion project (you have to listen to find out).
