Hi Mark,
"The Joker is Wild" - being a Paramount release originally - does not come under the Warner banner and so was never a part of this recent multi-film collection.

| I agree with you, Rego. Warners are certainly leading the field in deluxe box sets. Not only are their restorations first class, but also their constantr stream of extras. More power to them. |
