"Warner Home Video have announced the Region 1 DVD release of the Warner Gangsters Collection for 25th January 2005. Six classic gangster titles featuring the likes of Humphrey Bogart and James Cagney will debut in January available individually ($19.97 SRP each) or as part of a box set collection ($68.92 SRP).

This is so great. WB was a dark horse, but have recently become my favorite major studio for dvd releases for so many reasons. It started with the 2 disc editions like Singin' in the Rain and Unforgiven. It continued with Batman: The Animated Series. Then, Freaks and FINALLY getting rid of the snappers. Now it is the wonderful box sets. I love the Scorsese and the Film Noir , want the Hitchcock, am dying to get a release date on the Val Lewton boxset and now this set looks fantastic as well. Thanks WB!

These better have docu extras unlike the noir line.
