A Man Called Flintstone: back on DVD Schedule
http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/news/Fli...intstone/10265
Daws Butler Jr. mentioned a while back that a rights squabble with Louis Prima's estate was the main cause of the DVD cancellation. So either that's been cleared or the relevant Prima material is getting snipped. Plus, Hey There, It's Yogi Bear is also being released on DVD. They could've concievably come up with better cover art, though.

It's really the only other H-B theatrical feature that I've wanted to see released on DVD and the last true classic of the studio's "golden age" TV output from their original character series. With the fab Flintstones artwork, I agree it's a shame that WHV didn't fall back on the original marketing...  Would have made such a cooler looking cover than that ugly photoshopped Yogi face!

That's a exciting new! That's since a while i don't see Man Called Flintstone on TV. I enjoyed it before and that's was one of my top requested movies for DVD. I miss this movie, that's changed to the spin-off Flintstones features we seen this last 10 years animated or not.

One other thing I don't get. If Warner has a strict "no-dates" policy, how can the Man Called Flintstone cover advertise a 1966 date? Quite an Oversight.

Although I don't own any of the Flinstones or Yogi Bear DVDs, I see this as good news, and am excited.
Since the two films were originally released by Columbia, and now Warner Bros. is releasing it, I just want to know, did Hanna-Barberra buy the distirbution rights from Columbia, or did Turner or Warner get the rights?

Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!!!!!!
Yabba Dabba Doo!!!!!!!!!! Fetch me a pic-a-nic basket!!!!!!!!!!! I purchased "The Man Called Flintstone" on DVD when it came out in Canada in 2005, but . . . . . . I can't believe that they are releasing "Hey There, It's Yogi Bear!!!" This is funtastic. Popeye Volume 3 was #1 on my Christmas wish list until I saw this today. I let out a big gasp and my wife called out, "Are you okay? Are you having a heart attack?" She rolled her eyes when she heard what the real news was.

 (I'm also told that when this film was first shown in theatres, sometimes it was preceded by a Three Stooges short with Shemp or maybe Joe Besser.)Hey There, It's Yogi Bear was out on VHS in the 1980s too, but it was released through Paramount Home Video, if I recall correctly -- which is weird, since Columbia originally released it. Clips from the film were used in the opening title sequence of the revised Yogi Bear Show syndicated opening in 1988-1990, though no scenes from the film were used in the show itself. The VHS had some odd name listed as the copyright owner (I think -- again, this was 20 years ago) but I don't remember what it was. Anyone who is interested in these characters should make it a point to pick up the Huckleberry Hound and Yogi Bear DVD sets by the way, if you haven't done so already!
