NO showings in the Chicago area. Unbelievable.

Don't get me wrong. TCM's image looked excellent. Clearly a transfer of the recent restoration.

I have the 2nd remastered TCM disc. I recorded the movie on TCM HD last night, and there is shadow detail in the TCM that cannot be seen on the blu-ray no matter how high I pump up the brightness. Check out the first few shots after the credits. In the long shot of the park (after the shot of...

Higher bit rate.

Nah. Mine is now showing cancelled.

RAH :D. But isn't that three things?

Stanley Kubrick: A Life in Pictures has been included in two prior blu-ray releases, but only in SD. I'd be interested in the set if this doc was finally presented in HD.

And it's also available through the other usual suspects. But, want it for 5 bucks? Wait for the next 50% off coupon code sale at FoxConnect.

I'll cast my vote for "The Searchers." I had watched in once before on HDDVD, but I decided to revisit it when this thread started. I haven't seen many Wayne films, but I started buying Wayne films after first seeing this one. I was surprised by how much I enjoyed John Wayne. I grew up in the...

I ordered a few last night. Got to checkout and saw that they were charging me tax (I'm in Illinois). Still saved enough over Screen Archives, so I went through with it. Plus, 4% back from my cashback site helped ease the tax burden.
