The whole Thin Man film series is coming to DVD. Huzzah and hooray, these films have been on my DVD wish list since I first thought to combine the idea of DVDs with the idea of wish lists. Yup, that was me.

Yup as well to the fact that the first of the Thin Man movies (coincidentally called The Thin Man) has long been available on DVD, but that ain't been enough for this fan of Myrna and Bill. Now all six films will finally be available in a seven disc set.

aside:

Just like you, my first thought was to worry that they've made the six films span all seven discs so that the end of each film was on a separate disc. Wouldn't that be funny, in an I'd Have To Kill Everyone At Warner Home Video sort of way.

end of aside

I'm delighted I'll be able once again watch the whole series for the first time since I prematurely dumped my entire VHS collection under the misguided assumption that DVD replacements would soon be available for all cassette-bound movies. I'm looking your way Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle, don't think that I'm not.
