On Saturday, March 24 from 7:00-8:00pm in Room 300B, it’s Warner Archive Meets Trailers from Hell.

And on Sunday, March 25 from 2:30-3:30pm in North 200B, the toe-tapping tradition continues with Warner Archive’s Toonstock 7: Special Guest Edition. An all-new rendition of the wildly popular Toonstock, this time taking a long look/listen at a lengthy list of animated music from cartoons and films, including a special spotlight on Teen Titans (featuring the title track by Puffy AmiYumi!), plus Secret Squirrel, The Biskitts, Static Shock and some upcoming surprises!
