So it's more a celebration of United Artist, Orion Pictures, some PolyGram and 28 years of MGM. If they wanted to use any of MGM's pre-1986 clips (including such classics as Gone with the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, Singin' in the Rain, Ben-Hur, North by Northwest, and many, many others), they'd have to make a deal with Warner Bros.

They used to say MGM had more stars then the heavens during the contract period yet they ignored all those stars. Where are Clark Gable, Spencer Tracy, Myrna Loy, William Powell, Gene Kelly, Judy Garland, Joan Crawford just to name a few?
