My Target is similar. CD/vinyl quantity is close to DVD/BD here. At this point there might actually be more CDs than Blu-rays.

Some folks might be remembering past excuses with big box electronic stores and not giving Best Buy the benefit of the doubt. And perhaps justifiably. For example, their true intent might be to close the stated number of stores but not actually open any new, smaller ones - that part might just...

My order arrived on Saturday with no shipping notification. Everything looks fine.

Judging by article excerpts and thread comments, it sounds like nearly everyone is saying "DVD" as a catch-all for discs. I'm not sure this story refers to DVD alone and not also Blu-ray.

You're missing The Narrow Margin, my #1 grail now that A Day at the Races is out. The screenplay by Earl Felton was nominated for an Oscar. :)

There's a lot of speculation in this thread alone. Interpretations being stated as fact.

I asked earlier in this thread (I think) and the answer seemed to be that she wasn't going to do one for any of her films. No reason was given.

Kino is on track to complete Peggy Dow's filmography while she's still with us. ;)

Thank you. As a nearly twenty year veteran of this forum, I don't appreciate being insulted like that. Especially twice in a post seemingly written only for that purpose.

You're welcome to your opinion, even if your entirely reply is subjective. And my opinion is that if you believe single discs will crawl us to a complete collection before becoming unprofitable - something that never happened in home video even during its heyday in the 2000s - you're being...

Well, let's really compare the cost of a large set to the likelihood of finishing the series one disc at a time. I would guess all 1,000 cartoons could fit on a set of about 20 or 30 Blu-rays, which is large but not unprecedented and certainly wouldn't be $1,000 SRP. How many more Collector's...

If this is the case, and George is full steam ahead on Looney Tunes, and so much Looney Tunes has already been restored in HD... I wonder if a complete collection may be possible someday. Do we know how many Looney Tunes cartoons have been fully restored in HD, going back to the Platinum...

I love both eras of Marx Bros films. The Paramount films have an undeniable kinetic quality, but can sometimes feel like a series of comedy setpieces with less focus on building out rewarding story (especially the earlier ones). The MGM films have added songs and production values that make them...

That's Kit Parker, who released the L&H Blu-ray set of their features with the controversial digital scrubbing IIRC? Great.

This is close to how I felt as well. The story lacks Bernstein the Legend, and so his relationship with Felicia and his own feelings about his homosexuality never find juxtaposition with his career and fame, which seemed to be the basis around which both personal items were intended to revolve...

I went to my local BB for the Snow White UHD too, figuring it's my last disc there. Took a picture too.

Play stupid games, win fabulous prizes.

I'm sorry to hear that. Perhaps with a potential status change in Mr. Williams' library, things might be different at some future point. Thank you for the reply.

Hi David, Congratulations on your upcoming release of Meet John Doe! Might you consider a Blu-ray release of D.O.A. (1950)? It's a public domain film that might fit very nicely in the CF catalog. Thanks!

Indeed Thalberg died while this film was in production.

Yes! This was right at the top of my WAC wishlist. The last great Marx Brothers film. Day 1 purchase.

Oh hell yes. Was hoping this was on the docket from Warner Archive but I'll take it from Criterion too. :cool:

RIP. I loved him on Night Court and later as Two-Face on Batman the Animated Series. That's three this last year for BTAS. Kevin Conroy, Arleen Sorkin and now Moll. :(

I think you might be underestimating either the situation or perhaps missing the passage of time. They don't complain right after. They complain, or go on strike, when the current contract expires and the two sides can't agree on new terms. The contract SAG/AFTRA is fighting for now will...

It wouldn't be the use of the tool. The proper comparison would be a robot version of yourself creating a new tool, every time, for single use while you're furloughed. Besides, your employer isn't your customer. Residuals exist to give performers just a portion of the value of their work being...

No steelbook, no sale.

Same. I think of them often when looking for local solutions, and not just discs.

While also screwing actors, writers and others of a fair wage in the process.

If the commentators aren't actors in SAG they wouldn't be restricted.

This isn't surprising. CD-Rs have always fared better because their capacity is lower, allowing for more space between the data tracks and therefore fewer errors occur when burning.
