Reaction to The Dark Knight Begins
"A refreshing take on the Caped Crusader."
- Roger Ebert

"Neil Patrick Harris's Riddler is as terrifying as he is charming."
- Access Hollywood

- The Los Angeles Times

"Remember when people doubted Chris Nolan's grasp of Batman? I don't."
- The Chicago Tribune

"Paul Feig's probably out there wishing he played a comic book villain rather than a real life villain."
- The Cleveland Plain-Dealer

Just so we're clear, can we get a recap on all the shows that have aired on ABC's Saturday Morning block after the POD? Just mentioning the names of said shows is good enough.

I agree Oldnavy has been going much into much detail on saterday mourning cartoon sheducle lately

ABC's Saturday Morning block after Michael Eisner took over Hanna-Barbera...

Wuzzles, Gummi Bears and Fluppy Dogs were HB's first series greenlit by Eisner himself.

By 1985, Eisner started vertically integrating ABC's Saturday Morning lineup with mostly HB stuff with a few exceptions:

- Warner Bros continued to run The Bugs Bunny and Tweety Show on ABC all the way till 2000.

- ABC briefly aired Trump Manhattan's version of Beany and Cecil in 1988 before it was abruptly canceled.

- Galaxy High, created by Chris Columbus, aired in 1986. ITTL, Columbus co-produced the show with CMJ and 20th Century Fox television.

- Wild West Cowboys of Moo Mesa, created by Ryan Brown and produced by Murakami Wolf Swenson, the same team behind the 1987 TMNT series.

- Bump in the Night, aired in the mid-90's and owned ITTL by Saban Brands.
 
Just had a thought for TTL's Disney princess lineup and other franchises in the Disney animated canon lineup.

With the release of this collection of the Disney princess films on DVD and Blu-ray, wonder if we'll see one for the princesses for here not before long? Can imagine that the Star Wars films have already gotten this or has it already happened? (Maybe for the 30th anniversary in 2007?)

With that said, might be an update to give an update on the princess lineup as of 2006 here. Would be hilarious if Julia Redaxe somehow ends up in it if you remember who she ends up with.

Isn't Belle missing from the list? Other than that, a very unique list here. Bloody hell that Julia is the Stitch of the princess franchise haha! x'D

Also forgot to mention, if we are getting collections such as Princess and Star Wars collections, another idea might be to have a Disney dark side/adult collection featuring the PG-13 films maybe? Would they be Black Cauldron, Nineteen Eighty-Four, Redaxes and one other film have I forgot to mention?

Finally, I think an animation pipeline for future animated films for all studios might be overdue. Going to be interesting seeing other studios are making it tough for Disney here.

So, how many HB shows were created after the inclusion of Eisner? And, if possible, can I make a suggestion for the company?

- Same titles as above; released months before Rise of the Sith came out.
- The cover art would be similar to the OTL Special Edition VHS covers.

First time on DVD for the titles below. Each DVD release from this era is single disc with a minimal amount of extras.

The Phantom Menace
Rise of the Sith
A New Hope
The Empire Strikes Back
Revenge of the Jedi
Dark Empire

NOTE: Titles listed in order of when they take place in the SW canon of TTL.

Each title will have 2 discs each. One for the movie itself with audio commentary, the second disc stacked with bonus materials.

The Phantom Menace
Rise of the Sith
Rogue Squadron
(Likely the last installment to come out on VHS)
A New Hope

@TheFaultsofAlts Lets hear your suggestions.

Well, I only have one at the moment, but it'll have to do for now...

The name of the potential show is called Scooby Doo's Food Ranch. In this show, the Mystery Inc. gang decide to take some time off from solving mysteries in order to begin a farm. Said farm is used as a means for Shaggy and Scooby to get some fresh foods without going to the nearest store. Which actually makes some sense as an interior method if you've watched enough of the franchise. Oh, and other Hanna-Barbera characters try to get some food from them by any means necessary. You have Yogi and Boo-boo attempting to steal the foods, the Smurfs using their small size(s) to get some mushrooms for their community, and ITTL, you can include a cameo or two from Marsupilami or Sledgehammer O'Possum somewhere in the first few episodes.

Let me know if this is a good idea.
