 The films ranged from old favorites such as "The Wizard of Oz" (1939), "Lassie Come Home" (1943), and "The Secret Garden" (1949), to later widescreen films such as the 1960 remake of "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn", to then-recent fare such as "Clarence, the Cross-Eyed Lion".All the trailers for the films in the series were newly created, using footage from the original trailers of the films, and combining them with new narration.For example, the narration for the series trailer for "Forbidden Planet" targeted the boys in the audience and focused solely on the science fiction elements, and "Robby the Robot", 
and none of the romance between Leslie Nielsen and Anne Francis.
