    Warner Archive Announcements Thread

    If I remember correctly, George Feltenstein in a past podcast saying that the Lucy & Desi films were big sellers on DVD. I think Forever, Darling will make its way to Blu-ray at some point.

    Best Buy To Exit Physical Media Business In 2024

    It's starting... most of the upcoming release pre-orders are gone now from Best Buy.com. Up until recently they listed pre-orders for early 2024 releases, Criterions, Shout factory etc. all gone now. Or at least at this moment.

    I'm thinking they may release it separately like they did with The Way We Were.

    Best Buy To Exit Physical Media Business In 2024

    I wish Best Buy would consider keeping the online purchase option. It has always been nice to have somewhere other than Amazon to purchase from. Yesterday my pre-order from Best Buy of The Way We Were UHD delivered to me. I think the last time I went into a Best Buy store was last year's...

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - The Way We Were -- in 4k UHD

    My pre-ordered Best Buy order came in the mail today. I just watched the extended cut and thought it was quite good, and surprisingly did enhance the story. It is not just footage added for padding. The disc itself, is stunning. Sony delivers again with a superb 4k restoration.

    Pre-Order SPHE Press Release: The Way We Were (1973) 50th Anniversary Edition (4k UHD Combo)

    We really don't know if Sydney Pollack would have minded if the film was altered or not. He might have been fine with it as long as the original theatrical cut was included (as it is.) There probably would have been an audio commentary by the both of them, and the subject would have been...

    Press Release WHV 100th Anniversary Sets Volumes 1-4 (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    They should have placed George Feltenstein to curate a truly substantial group of sets that represent WB's history as a studio. No MGM, New Line or RKO should be included.

    Press Release WHV 100th Anniversary Sets Volumes 1-4 (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    Who are they marketing these for? Physical media is not mainstream anymore. It is a collector's market, and we (collectors) have these titles already.

    Top 1973 Films by Box Office 50th Anniversary 4K Releases?

    American Graffiti I think is a given. Paper Moon seems like a logical Paramount Presents release. I would not count on anything from Disney or Fox though.

    Pre-Order Sony Pictures Classics 30th Anniversary 4K Ultra HD Collection (4K UHD) Available for Preorder

    If Sony still had the rights to Howard's End I'm sure it would have been in this collection.

    Dear Paramount Presents!

    Paper Moon is 50 years old next year. Perfect time for Paramount Presents.

    Columbia Classics Vol 3 Suggestions

    Really great selection for Vol 3. To Sir, with Love is a nice surprise. I thought Poitier would be in this set, but was thinking Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? I probably would have included either Tootsie or Silverado instead of Annie for the 80's selection. But not a big deal. Criterion...

    Columbia Classics Vol 3 Suggestions

    Per Bill Hunt and rumors on another site, it appears that Vol 3 will include It Happened One Night, From Here to Eternity, The Last Picture Show, Annie and As Good as it Gets. Nothing yet regarding 6th title. I'm going with a 60's film, either A Man for All Seasons or Guess Who's Coming to...

    Blu-ray Review A Few Words About A few words about…™ Ordinary People – in Blu-ray

    I watched it last night. The film really holds up well after 42 years. It's sad that Hollywood does not produce films like this anymore. Filmmaking is not like it was back in the day. The studios have lost their luster.

    Columbia Classics Vol 3 Suggestions

    Unfortunately, Sony does not have home entertainment rights to The Last Emperor in the U.S.and most of the world. Otherwise, I'm pretty sure it would have been considered for UHD. At one time it was with Artisan Entertainment in the U.S. before Criterion released it.

    Columbia Classics Vol 3 Suggestions

    My early speculation of what they possibly could include in Volume 3. The Lady from Shanghai (1946) On the Waterfront (1954) A Man for All Seasons (1966) Funny Girl (1968) Tootsie (1982) Little Women (1994)

    I love this film. But will we ever see a release that is not about the Hanson brothers? How about a true special edition with new supplements?
