I am a classic movie collector and have bought mostly everything classic released by studios on dvd (pressed discs).
Last month I started to revisit some of my WB discs and was very upset in finding out that most of my discs released between 2006/2008 are not working properly.
Some of them do not even begin to play, some others freeze in the middle of the film, while double feautures tend to read only one movie.
Important to notice that WB discs released prior to 2006 are still working fine, as well as discs from other studios.
And all of them have been properly stored and a lot of them only viewd once.
Here is a list of my defective dvds, so far:
Roberta (from Astaire and Rogers Collection)
Film Noir vol 4 (just 2 films are working)
Esther Williams collection vol 1
William Powell and Myrna Loy Collection
Forbidden Hollywood Volume 1 (only Waterloo Bridge is saved)
Streetcar Named Desire
Cat on a hot tin roof
Madame Curie
Miracle in the Rain
Presenting Lilly Mars
Literary Classics (only Madame Bovary and 3 Musketeers are saved)
Midsummer Night's Dream
Romeo and Juliet
By the Light of the silvery Moon
On moonlight bay
The clock
Du Barry was a lady
Executive suit
To please a lady / jeopardy
The great lie
watch on the rhine
I'll cry tomorrow
West point story
The Fountainhead
The wreck of the mary deare
the Pirate
Royal wedding
That midnight kiss
Errol Flynn Collection volume 2 (except for the Adventures of Don Juan and Dawn Patrol)
Tarzan Collection volume 2
Classic musicals from the dream factory volume 3 (except for Hit the deck, the broadway melodies, two weeks with love and Nancy goes to Rio )
Without reservations
Big Jim mclain
Judy Garland and Mickeu Rooney Collection
Joan Crawford Collection volume 2 (except for A woman's face and Flamingo Road)
Forbidden Hollywood volume 2 (except for Night Nurse and Female)
I did not have the time yet to check Humprhrey Bogart collection volume 2, Burt Lancaster Collection, World War 2 collection volume and Ronald Reagan collection, but you can see that this is an impressive number for bad pressed dvds. I am really devasted since I spent a substantial amount of money on these.
Can you please verify if the same is happening with the same discs in your collection? Thanks!
