I have just preordered a whole slew of films scheduled for release on 4/3. The Benny Goodman Story The Glenn Miller Story Birth of the Blues Blue Skies A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court Emperor Waltz Rhythm on the Range Rhythm on the River (never believed I would ever see...
Received my October 15th order today. Exodus, The Hoodlum Priest, How to Murder Your Wife, The Russians are Coming, The World of Henry Orient. Only The Russians are Coming and The World of Henry Orient are Anamorphic. How to Murder Your Wife, The Hoodlum Priest and especially Exodus are not...
DVD File reports that SUNRISE is being released in January, but only by special offer. This seems an unusual marketing strategy. How does one receive the "special offer"?
The missing DVD's aren't too bad this time. ROMAN HOLIDAY AFRICAN QUEEN - still waiting KING KONG - supposed to be in restoration SHOP AROUND THE CORNER SWING TIME CAMILE RANDOM HARVEST NINOTCHKA ANNA KARENINA (1935) TO CATCH A THIEF THE POSTMAN ALWAYS RINGS TWICE (1946) BRINGING...
It seems that since so many people hate snapper cases, that there could be a good third party business in keep cases. These would be movie specific and have all of the graphics for each film. In fact, Warner themselves could get into the business ... or at least license it out. I am not...
Tyrone Power was a HUGE star at 20th Century Fox. However, the only films of his on DVD (except Yank in the RAF, which comes out next week) are those where he was lent out to other studios, such as Columbia.
There are dozens of marvelous and historically important films of his in your vault...
This collection of 4 DVD's from Warner are scheduled for 5/21. However, nowhere can I find any information on the films. Which version? What year? What director? etc?
Anyone know anything?
Thanks so much. It is good to see some of the old Alec Guinness films. Hope you are working on The Ladykillers, Kind Hearts and Coronets, Lavendar Hill Mob, etc.
Over the weekend, I immersed myself into your David Lean discs ... Brief Encounter, Great Expectations and Oliver Twist. Plus...
I am talking about Khartoum, I Want to Live!, The Vikings, The Pride and the Passion, The Hound of the Baskervilles, etc. Some are Anamorphic, others are not. PLEASE reconsider making all of the widescreens Anamorphic.
According to IMDB, they have the rights to several hundred films, some of them good. I don't think any are on DVD. Who are they and how does one contact them?
On your Marjorie Morningstar you say,
FULL SCREEN VERSION: Formatted from its original version to fit your screen. Presented in the original 1.33:1 format in which the film was shot.
HUH? Since MY screen is 16:9, did you reformat the picture for a 16:9 TV?
I just preordered, Summer of '42, The Bad and the Beautiful, Klute, A Touch of Class, and Designing Woman. Great DVD's to add to my collection. Keep the good ones coming.
Although I did not get to make my comment and ask a question. Hopefully you will read it here.
Thank you for the Anamorphic transfers. Superman was super! As an avid collector. I have well over 2100 films in my collection - as of today, 987 are on DVD and I still have over 1100 VHS tapes to...
What is the rule for WB owning MGM titles? I thought all MGM titles prior to 1959 are owned by WB. MGM titles afer 1959 are owned by MGM.
If this is the case, CRUISING and CARNY, both in 1980 are MGM titles.
I watched the DVD "20th Century Fox: The First 50 years" last night and I began getting nostalgic about some of the classic and historically important films in the Fox library. If these films are important enough to mention as milestones of Fox's history, then I think they should be important...
