I do most of my pre-ordering from DVDPacific they tend to ship around 10 days or so before the release date. Although as I live in England that tends to mean I still don't get it until the release date but I occasionally get it before release date despite international shipping. However they...

I've got well over 1000 DVDs now. In due course I'll start getting one of the HD formats (after the dust hassettled in the format war). But I'm happy with DVD quality, yeah HD is better, but I'm not going to dump the DVDs some will be replaced but the TV stuff (around 60%) won't be worth...

www.tvshowsonDVD.com have got artwork for the release. Pleased to see this finally turning up. That's a few more of my old video tapes that can go to that great video player in the sky. At least that's where I assume the trash collectors take them.

I can only speak for myself but at the moment there are several reasons I'm NOT looking at High Definition. 1. First Generation I'm concerned that both the DVD player and TV will be first generation machines and that bugs/kinks/features call them what you will, will need to be ironed out...

I doubt this is a factor in their decision, as people stated the limited and expensive nature of this release will have greatly reduced availability. But it should also be noted that Columbia did an identical release for Alien Nation. Which also sold out and went for serious wedge on eBay. It...

For those with R2 or multi-region machines you may be interested to know that 6M$M and Bionic Woman season 2 are both scheduled for an R2 release on 23rd Oct. The Kill Oscar story (Parts 1 & 3 were BW, Part 2 was 6M$M) has all three parts on the BW set. Both sets are 6 disc boxes so looks...

I get the distinct impression that Lucas hasn't got the foggiest idea what the fans of his material want. Otherwise why would he spend so much creating those abortions of the original Star Wars movies with edits to show Darth Vader was always Hayden Christiansen etc. Now instead of releasing...

The trouble, IMHO, with reunion movies is that the fans of a TV series still watch the show on re-runs, VHS or DVD, what they really want is more episodes of the show with the actors the same age as before. I think for popular TV series the key actors should be given an "aging waiver". This...

True. I did buy both, and I would buy the remaining seasons if they release them. Sadly no sign of that yet.

Ok, so slightly off topic but what about the earlier pilot starring Cathy Lee Crosby? Any chances that'll ever get a DVD release?

On the plus side Knight Rider has now been completed and presumably Universal will start looking at other items in their back catalogue to market in order to generate more revenue. Items they could consider are: Six Million Dollar Man Bionic Woman The Various Six Mill/BW Movies Airwolf

Agree entirely with what Jeremy says. What happens is that the copyright laws in Asia are far laxer than in the US/UK so you get small companies "legitimately" releasing DVDs. They're not technically bootleg as they're not breaking Asian law but they've not paid licence fees to the studios and...

I was lucky enough to get all three seasons from a dealer on eBay a while back. But its my understanding that sales were not that strong and so after the original pressing they haven't done any more. So once distributors sold out they were unable to reorder. Your best bet is probably to look...

Personally I'd rather see Season 2 released separately, then they could wrap season 3 up with Sixth Sense and release those as a pair as both are relatively short. Granted Sixth Sense isn't anywhere near as good as Night Gallery but it would be nice to see it out there (particularly in full...

The question is not so much will they release this movie but if they do will it be the theatrical release. I'm sure George Lucas would want to improve on things so in the release we'd discover then it's really Hayden Christensen who's Darth Duck. :D

Paul has been pushing for this for a few years now but as far as I know there's been no takers in terms of actually putting money up to have it made.

Just a quick note the DVD extras mentioned may not be for the R1 release. The first half of the season has already been announced for R2 and comes out on the 22nd of this month. See http://www.play.com/DVD/DVD/4-/85778...1/Product.html The extra you mention may have just been filmed for...

I picked up my series 4 box set on Monday. There was an autograph signing with Gareth Thomas Paul Darrow Steven Pacey Peter Tuddenham Michael Keating Glynis Barber and Jan Chappell Glynis was still looking particularly good IMHO Now all I need to do is get Josette Simon to sign...

Not sure what you mean by PAL flicker. PAL TVs here certainly don't flicker. My guess is the different voltages between US/UK affect the timing mechanisms of the equipment (some of which use that for synochronisation ). It's weird because here I get identical results on my system (Panasonic...

For a slightly different viewpoint I wonder if anyone on this forum has a phone. The first phone network had just six telephones connected. All within the same building. Sound on the phones was dreadful. I suspect it would normally have been far easier to pop into the other room to chat to...

In principle I agree with you but we need to remember that this is a hobby. Difficult though it is for me to remember sometimes (particularly when waiting for that oh so important release delayed at the post office) this isn't life and death. There's also no hard and fast rules on...

The picture looked professional to me but perhaps David or Gord can let us know where they got the shot from just to satisfy our curiosity.

Surprised to hear that multi-standard VCRs were expensive in the US. Over here in the UK they were pretty much the same price as single standard (PAL only) VCRs. You could get them to either output the NTSC signal as PAL through an inbuilt converter or just get a raw NTSC signal and get a...

I like that to, but did you notice that in the artwork Sony sent to TVShowsOnDVD the cases where in the wrong order. So the gates' shuffled. Just looked strange to me. I'm all in favour of consistency for releases but I'm running out of shelf space so got to prefer thinner packs.

For reference there's more than one TV show titled Birds of Prey. I'm guessing you're referring to the 13 part US action series. But there's also a British drama series of the same name that's just been released in R2. I'd like to see the US Birds of Prey released too.

For reference shows that appear to have stalled that I'd like to see complete are: Mork and Mindy (Season 1 released, need 2 and 3) Forever Knight (Season 1 and 2 released, need 3) Airwolf (Season 1 released, need 2 and 3, at a push I might buy 4 just to complete the set) Six Million...

I also live in the UK and RCE bothered me for a brief while. Then I decided to resolve the situation, went to my DVD retailer and got my machine sorted. Now it plays RCE disks just fine. Speak to your retailer there's loads of multi-region machines out there that ignore RCE. It may even be...

The thread title asks what films will NEVER get a release. The answer's relatively straightforward. Film or TV release is based on three factors: 1. Cost to Release (including production costs, licensing etc.) 2. Estimated Sales Revenue 3. Rights Issues In general your average...

Minor point but posts in this thread have been stating sites are deducting the 15% VAT. As a UK resident those sites wouldn't deduct VAT for me anyway. But VAT in the UK is 17.5%. So if they're only deducting 15% you're not getting all the VAT back. You may wish to try www . play . com...
