Well, it was Sellers on the laser and that was STRIKES AGAIN. The Toulouse bit was from REVENGE.

If Paramount has access to the gorgeous materials Artisan used for their S1 set, they should go ahead and release it in anticipation of the Second Season release. Give me the pilot and the original sound mix and I will happily re-purchase Season One. I certainly hope Paramount will include the...

I agree with Patrick that BEING THERE is a comedy, also a wonderful satire. Certainly not the type of lighthearted slapstick of the PANTHER films, though. As for the bloopers during the end credits, while it would be OK to have them as an extra, even if that was the most widely distributed...

Generally, no, but in this case I like the original packaging enough to. If only I could find S2 & 3 used as I did the first set. With a few trade-ins I got S1 for $35.

Does anyone know if the price drop comes with a packaging change? I much prefer the packaging on S1-3 to S4. I only have season 1 and if they are going to reconfigure the packaging I would much prefer to pick up S2 & 3 before any potential changes. Well, just found the answer on another...

This is all the info about the release currently on the AB site: "Continuing our Hammer Collection, this entry starring the late, great Bette Davis comes to DVD in late Fall of 2005 with a new restored transfer as well as a new audio commentary featuring director Roy Ward Baker and producer...

Thanks for the info. I can just stick with my Ancor Bay DVD. Now, if Universal would have added the TV cut as an extra, I would have double-dipped.

I thought the Universal DVD was bare bones, but looking at in the store today I noticed that a Director's Commentary was listed as an extra. I could only find reviews for the R2 and R4 Universals and those are bare bones. I assume the commentary is ported over from the Anchor Bay release, but...

Thank you, Jeff. How did I ever manage to forget the Cook/Moore BEDAZZLED. Maybe if we utter the magic words we'll get it- Julie Andrews...

Anchor Bay has already announced two of my most desired Fox titles- CEMETERY MAN and THE ANNIVERSARY, so that just leaves---SHOCK TREATMENT. Yes, a SHOCKY DVD release would be much appreciated.

Actually The Complete Series includes the Christmas Specials as well. I do wish the BBC would have the Complete set a bit earlier, though, because now I'm going to end up with two copies of S1. Oh well, I probably wouldn't have been able to hold off until Oct anyway. The menus were hilarious...

I was very dissapointed that the video for 'Into the West' was listed on the first release specs for the Theatrical Ed, but was mysteriously dropped before release. The first two DVDs included the videos of the end credits song, and yet the song that wins an Oscar doesn't rate a spot on the ROTK...

All About Eve

Yes, but back then she was just plain Edna Everage. She didn't achieve Dame-hood until sometime in the late seventies. I've seen a clip of Humphries' first TV appearance as Edna and she was a mousy, timid soul then. He was spoofing the average Melbourne housewife. However, it wasn't too long...

Mark, the shows you are referring to were three Dame Edna specials that aired on NBC over the space of a year or two sometime in the ninties (I forget exactly when.) Those are not on the upcoming DVD set, but it would be great if they were released at some point. I taped two of them, but totally...

Would you believe... GET SMART, all five seasons packaged in a portable Cone of Silence. Well, a guy can dream, can't he? It is absolutely tops on my wish list of TV on DVD, only GOLDEN GIRLS comes close. Having been born too late to catch them on first run, it would be great to finally see...

Does anyone have an email address for Fox? I have a question about Sunrise (& the now expired promotion) and would like to know if there is someone reliable and considerate to field my question to. I looked on the website and could only find an address for privacy policy concerns. I sent an...

If Artisan's US video rights haven't expired yet I don't think Carlton could license it out to MGM. Still, I will miss RETURN in the set, but I'm not shedding one tear that the non-Sellers films aren't included. On the other hand, I'm jumping for joy that INSPECTOR CLOUSEAU is not being...

I know there is stuff upcoming from the usual suspect (Wolfe, Strand, TLA...), but I can't recall any specific titles right now...except... THE MEAT RACK/STICKS & STONES coming from Somthing Weird on 12-2. I've been looking forward to this one for a while. It was originally announced for a...

I would recommend that anyone wishing to view IMAGES for the first time- AVOID READING ANY AND ALL REVIEWS. Don't even read the back of the DVD case. I'm an Altman fan and picked up the DVD knowing almost nothing of the plot. I don't think I would have enjoyed my first viewing as much if I'd...

Jeff, Have you heard if MGM feels there is a problem with the color on THE RAVEN? I've posted about it before, here and elswhere, and I feel the color balance is far too red. It looks too much like the faded and red-shifted prints that used to air on TV rather than the gorgeous colors and...

First, I want to say that it would be a shame if MGM lost/sold the rights to these films. Unlike some other studios, MGM has shown that they do care what the fans think and mostly do a very fine job on the Midnite Movies line. There have been some problems with some of the AIP titles...

I just hope that if someone else now holds the US rights and they decide to re-issue S1 that they include the original stereo mix as an audio option. For the most part the re-mixes were just fine, but several key scenes had the music and sound effects greatly reduced in volume compared to the...

Please, PLEASE let's forget INSPECTOR CLOUSEAU. That's one piece of film history I wouldn't mind disappearing forever... The boxed set sounds great, though. I was only aware of the first being released as a special edition. I'm glad it's a whole set.

I just noticed a few days ago that ths was no longer on Universal's schedule. I found a couple of posts from the beginning of last month on how it quietly disappeared from the June release slate, but does anyone have any information on why? Is it cancelled or, hopefully, delayed. I really would...

Haynes' best film, in my opinion. The R1 looks absolutely gorgeous and sounds great. The lack of extras was none too surprising considering its' non-success in theaters. The horrid US trailer (the only extra on the R1) totally mis-markets the film, selling it as some kind of 'who killed Brian...

Well, that really does depend on how one interprets certain events in the film...

Actually, on the bottom of the front page there is an email address: Elfman.com address I wonder if the store you rented the tape from was renting out a dupe and keeping the original safe under lock and key. The copy I have was probably only rented a few times before I bought it and the...
