Great selection. Put me down for Two Rode Together and The Man From Laramie.

Dale MA · Feb 2, 2014

Interesting line up!! Quite a few titles of interest.

EddieLarkin · Feb 2, 2014

A few comments/questions for TT:

Thanks for putting the Thunderbirds films together, rather than splitting them into two $30 purchases like with the Flint films.

Thanks for adding the Nancy Kwan doc to Fate is the Hunter for people who already bought the DVD.

What is the run time of The Train? Apparently the "UK cut" runs 6-7mins longer.

Is there really any market in the U.S. for these "soccer" films like The Firm? I'll be honest, they sort of seem like a waste of a release "slot".

Thanks for the Huston. Would love to see Moby Dick next.

Bob Cashill · Feb 2, 2014

The Firm makes more sense paired with Alan Clarke's 1989 original. UK audiences seem to have yawned at the remake.

DP 70 · Feb 2, 2014

I might get Rollerball if they use the 6 track stereo audio used on 70mm prints.

Robert Crawford · Feb 2, 2014

I see five definite need to own in the following:

Rollerball
Two Rode Together
The Man From Laramie
The Train
Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison

I won't buy the BD of Fate is the Hunter since i already own the DVD from TT.

ahollis · Feb 2, 2014

THE TRAIN, finally.

Adam Gregorich · Feb 2, 2014

Wow some great titles!

JoHud · Feb 2, 2014

Wow, some great ones. I will be buying the following:

Thunderbirds Are Go/Thunderbirds 6 (blind buy)
Rollerball (blind buy)
[color=rgb(0,0,0);font-family:Helvetica;font-size:12px;]Fate is the Hunter ([/color]blu-ray upgrade)
Two Rode Together (Widmark in HD!!!)
The Mechanic
The Train (Finally, an anamorphic transfer)
Heaven Knows Mr. Allison (Mitchum in HD!!!!)
The Man From Laramie (Very thankful here, the Sony DVD transfer was below par)

Regarding Fate is the Hunter, any word on a trade-in program? I know it is highly unlikely but that was their 3rd release ever which I pre-ordered on the spot. My guess is no, but it would be nice, eh?

If you don' already own it Robert, would definitely be worth the upgrade for TT co-partner Brian Jamieson's feature-length documentary on the life and career of Nancy Kwan: To Whom it May Concern: Ka Shen's Journey. A lot in that one...I've seen it twice.

Hollywoodaholic · Feb 2, 2014

The Train, excellent. I hope they carry over the Frankenheimer commentary. He does great commentary. I'll also be in for Heaven Knows Mr. Allison, one of my favorite Robert Mitchum films.

Powell&Pressburger · Feb 2, 2014

Great list of titles . I've held out on the German edition of the Mechanic that cover art is ultra generic to say the least. Thunderbirds films should be fun. To Whom it may Concern Sounds very interesting and that will be on my list for sure. I wonder if TT would consider releasing Henry Hathaways 20th Century Fox classic Seven Thieves? Fun b/w CinemaScope film.

SAhmed · Feb 2, 2014

Definite purchases for me are:

Thunderbirds Are Go/Thunderbird 6
Rollerball
The Mechanic
The Train
The Man From Laramie
Two Rode Together

Regards,

EddieLarkin · Feb 2, 2014

Whatever happened to The 5 Fingers of Dr T and The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds? I remember them being teased years ago.

JohnMor · Feb 2, 2014

Nice selection! Will definitely be pre-ordering The Train and Heaven Knows, Mr. Allison. And I'll probably add a couple of others as well down the line.

Noach Kowalski · Feb 2, 2014

The Train (finally!)
Rollerball
The Man From Laramie
The Mechanic
Heaven Knows, Mr Allison

All great titles and a definite buy for me. Yet another great and eclectic lineup.

bluelaughaminute · Feb 2, 2014

The Thunderbirds double bill is definitely one for me .
TT titles are usually region free but we've seen MGM titles licenced to companies like Shout that are region locked , presumably at the request of MGM.
What is the position regarding coding with the TT titles from MGM?

Alan Tully · Feb 2, 2014

A nice list, but no must-haves for me. Oh well, saved a bit of money, maybe something later in the year.

ajabrams · Feb 2, 2014

Any news on PRINCE OF PLAYERS? Or is a good transfer of that lost to history?
