Re: Sony to begin Stooge DVD sets

I'm not an authority on Sony's intentions, but I thought I saw a thread on here somewhere where somebody claimed there would be a set for the movies, but I got the impression where I saw such a thing, that they didn't think they would make all the shorts, IOW, the message about the movies seemed like it was at least 3 years old.

Re: Sony to begin Stooge DVD sets

Does anyone know if the 3 Stooges made any appearances on the Radio?

I see you edited out the reference you found. A non-appearance on that one then?

I suspect it is not applicable for most people reading this thread, but in case you haven't picked up any of these yet Amazon has all 8 sets available today (2 July) for ~$84.

Darn good price. Although vol8 might seem to be the worst one, almost half of it is Shemp material (though 4 episodes are either with a double or old Shemp shots) and it is the volume with the largest amount of episodes. In fact it has almost 50% more episodes than vol7. It also is the only volume in the entire collection being in anamorphic widescreen.

I knew I should have waited! Haven't even opened any of the five I bought so far...

I could not find what I was looking for but I have found it now.

The Stooges with Ted Healy appeared on "Thirty Minutes in HollyWood" on October 31, 1937.
They do a comedy routine with George Jessel and then sing "The Kind of Rhythm for me."
They get billed as "The Super Stooges".

Now I need to track this show/episode down.
Haven't found it yet.

I remember seeing Hollywood Party (1934) on TV many years ago. It was just a bunch of cameos of big Hollywood stars of the time. I barely remember it, but I think it had just a quick cameo of "Ted Healy and his Stooges."

It doesn't appear to be on DVD, either.

For anyone desperate to see this film, there is a German DVD of Hollywood Party, which has the original English soundtrack and no forced German subtitles. It's available at Amazon.de.

Any news on this anywhere?

Re: Sony to begin Stooge DVD sets

Not a peep, and with Sony starting it's own MOD program, I'd say it's a crapshoot from here on out as to how they're going to do things.
