    TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT OR TITUS

    According to a blurb I read last year Ted, Mill Creek apparently has a lot of Sony titles, including deeper vintage catalogue, which they're still sitting on for some reason. Perhaps they're just waiting for more DVDs of those titles to go out of print? Who knows, but they've been eerily silent...

    ...but mere handfuls of second tier titles Sean, and spottily scheduled. Certainly not the solid 60 plus catalogue releases we can expect from Twilight Time this year. In relative terms, Image's modestly priced, scattershot sales model for catalogue via traditional retail is faltering, if not...

    TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT OR TITUS

    Well, in a rather obvious and hilarious way you very much "named names" Douglas. So I'll take it from there, if you please. :rolleyes: As I've maintained all along, never wavering on this point either here or elsewhere, this is all about a simple "reality-check": For a saner and more stable...

    TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT OR TITUS

    Agreed. At one point last week, the 2-Disc Lawrence of Arabia restoration was available for $6.98 from Amazon (barely the cost of an import pint). Another beautifully restored classic, and late-2013 release, From Here to Eternity is currently $4.99 (a Starbucks). These aren't great "deals"...

    TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT OR TITUS

    Okay, the foothills dogsled finally arrived bearing TT's releases this month. Top of my originally scheduled list was Khartoum to be followed by Man in the Dark (2D), then a much-anticipated double bill of Zulu with Zulu Dawn (which I've never seen). But after all of the 'sturm und drang' over...

    TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT OR TITUS

    Nope. I just want this format to be healthy enough for catalogue producers...offering reasonable rewards for everyone's investment and hard work throughout the chain...so they will have some incentive to deliver even more great stuff. I'd turn this question around: "Why are you encouraging...

    TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT OR TITUS

    Well congratulations, you broke ole ROCK! After two and a half years of listening to countless posters (mostly elsewhere, now suddenly here it seems) trot out the same tired phases "barebones" and "no frills" when dismissing the Special Features on TT's releases, I just couldn't stand it any...

    Bingo! And here's another telling recent example Rob: Alamo Bay: Respected Award-Winning filmmaker with a world-wide fan base (Louis Malle) Respected Award-Winning composer with a world-wide fan base showcased in lossless isolated form (Ry Cooder) One of the career-best under seen screen...

    TEMPEST IN A TEAPOT OR TITUS

    Maybe. Maybe not. I'm sure that will vary greatly by title...especially over time. In several of TT's early Interviews/FAQs they mentioned the "petri dish" aspect of their relationship with the home studios for [at least some of] these titles. As an example, even after the 'brisker' and...
