    Aspect Ratio Documentation

    Hey Bob, Looks like we may need your expertise yet again. Scream/Shout Factory just announced X The Unknown (1956) for Bluray release in February. They have it listed as 1:37, as does IMDB. Being from after the widescreen conversion, I am going to assume that this is incorrect and that it...

    Aspect Ratio Documentation

    Hey Bob, can you help with a 1955 film aspect ratio? Can you confirm if Beast With a Million Eyes, aks Beast with 1,000,000 eyes should be widescreen? IMDB lists 1:37, but I assumed that being from 1955 it would most likely have been presented in flat widescreen, 1:85. The bluray came out in...

    Aspect Ratio Documentation

    Hi Bob we need your expertise. Shout/Scream Factory just announced The Mole People (1956) They said it is 1:33 OAR. I thought the correct aspect ratio for this film was 2:00:1. Anolis in Germany released it at that ratio. Being from 1956 I thought by then Universal was all widescreen. Any...

    Hey Bob, quick question.. What is the OAR for Odds Against Tomorrow (1959)? Olive is releasing it. The UK bluray was 1:33. I worry that Olive will release it full frame. Being a 1959 film, shouldn't it be widescreen? Any chance you can contact Olive to make sure they're doing it right?

    Unfortunately not. He used to be on a lot of the forums, but he removed his accounts. The only message I've ever gotten from him was from his facebook account in reaction to something I posted. I'd say the best bet would be to go to their facebook and send them a message, or post what you have...

    Honestly, I'd for sure e-mail Mr. BIG himself. He could then get in contact with Shout Factory/ Cliff Macmilian and tell them that he wants his film done right. Heck, maybe they might enlist him for an interview. I think if they hear it from the actual director of the movie, that would really...

    Bob need your assistance. Scream Factory is releasing Attack of the Puppet People (1958) on bluray. They are saying that the OAR is 1:33. I mentioned that all films around that time were composed for widescreen. They are saying that it is definately 1:33 and they've seen the new master. Can you...

    3D What's up with Warner? Kiss Me Kate last 3D Blu-ray release in 2015

    Hi Bob, I messaged Warner's suggesting that they work with you for their remaining 3d titles. Hopefully something happens and they don't just sit on their other 3d titles forever.

    Warner Archive Discussion Thread (The Announcements/The Films)

    Good to hear. I asked the WAC through Facebook Messenger and they said it is 1:78 and are asking where i got the full frame listing. Every place that sells it, Movies Unlimited, the Wbshop etc all list it as 4x3 full frame. I wasn't trying to be a pain or anything. I just want to make sure it's...

    Warner Archive Discussion Thread (The Announcements/The Films)

    Anyone know why the MOD DVD of Protocol (1984) with Goldie Hawn is listed as 4x3 full frame (Original Aspect Ratio)? I'm aware that the old dvd was full frame, but lately when they have been re-releasing films in the WAC and the previous dvd was full frame, they make sure to release it in OAR...

    The Official Disney Movie Club Blu-ray Exclusives Thread

    I for one am excited for the Mighty Ducks. Being 32, I grew up watching these and Cool Runnings. However, these are not the only titles I've purchased. I like a lot of the Disney Live Action titles and I'm a big supporter of a title finally getting an OAR, or close to OAR release. For instance...

    Official KINO Insider Announcements Thread: STRICTLY MODERATED: READ GUIDELINES

    Good to hear about it being the longer version. Thanks for the quick reply! Will be very happy to replace my non-anamorphic dvd with a great looking bluray! Hopefully the ball will keep rolling with more announcements! I'd love it if Kino got another one of my favorites Spacecamp! Would also...

    Official KINO Insider Announcements Thread: STRICTLY MODERATED: READ GUIDELINES

    Misterlime, Do you know if the HD master is the 131 minute version that was on the MGM dvd? While that version was missing the overture and intermission, it at least had the longer cut of the movie. Also I'm sure it might be too early to say, but do you know if their remaster was in the 2:20...
