Hello again everyone...
I have made a few inquiries here at the forum as to what titles were available through certain companies. So here's one I haven't asked about yet. Late releases from Warner Bros (sometimes Warner/Columbia)
I have Superman (3 x 400') and Taxi Driver (1 x 400') in sharp white plastic clamshell cases and have seen the Exorcist in this format. What else is out there? Thanks as always!

Hi Chad, Derann released quite a lot of Warners stuff as condensations, there were quite a few features released, hire only, that no doubt reside in private collections now, from Columbia/Warner in S/8. If you wish I can list them.

I don't know what company released it, but I think all films packed in white plastic clamshell with blue stripes are from Warner (the same case you have for Superman 3 x 400).
For this I have:
All president Men Alien (Warner/Columbia) Enter the Dragon Excorsis
Maybe others can add the titles. And don't forget there are a lot of Warner cartoons.
Ps: those films might be marketed by Ken Films in different deal. Same case like MGM. But I am not sure about this.
