I'm definitely want this. I'd love a collection of his Hal Roch talkies and his later shorts from Columbia.

I really loved the Harry Langdon set. Can anyone sell me on this collection?

From classic flix:
Becoming Charley Chase which had been set for release this coming Tuesday has been indefinitely postponed. Speaking directly with David Kalat of All Day Entertainment, he cited lackluster sales in All Day's recent silent releases as the reason for not moving forward at this time.

It's too bad about this set not coming out (there's one title off ye' ol' wish list,) but I'm still waiting for another "long-announced" Charley Chase collection to make it's way to DVD:

I really thought this was about the porn star at first.

These are his early shorts and still hoping for his later ones during the Laurel and Hardy era and still hoping Laurel & Hardy can get a decent DVD box set to be released. Waiting for the Three Stooges Volume 7 - 1952-1954 - to be coming out as well.
