I assume the Blu ray itself is identical to the blu ray that was originally released several years ago, whereas the 4K disc is a different transfer as noted with the 4K set...(?)

I received my Psycho replacement discs today by Fedex Ground. I'd initiated my request by email on 1/18/21.

Last year I decided Amazon might be the most likely to have the latest corrected disc on a title, under the theory they probably turned their inventory quicker and would be the better candidate to have 'fresh corrected' stock. Didn't work out that way and I received the bad disc a couple of...

I would put 'The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence' on the top of my heap. Just a superlative example of late Ford where he's at his finest in every way. Then 'The Searchers', another exquisite example. And among the many others I have to include two of the Peckinpah's, 'The Wild Bunch', and 'Ride...

While I enjoyed revisiting this series, this set is sadly in need of remastering. Color was poor, print showed dirt in spots and the overall sharpness not good. 'Timeless Media Group' is the label rather than Fox. The bar has been raised on the quality of releases of this era's series, thinking...

I don't imagine this is anything new, but I contacted this email address a week ago regarding the replacement of the Psycho disc, [email protected], and received this response within a couple of days: Dear Customer, Thank you for letting us know your address, and other...

I just started this season after focusing on seasons 13-20 of the complete collection. The Remastered quality dropped noticeably with this season for some reason. Maybe 12 was done earlier when they didn't have the same standard in place used on 13-20. This would include choice of elements I...

A question for Mr. Harris. Wondering with a 'later' era film such as this one or 'High Plains Drifter' in receiving a new scan/restoration, since they were originally released in IB Tech, is there any typical effort to use such a print for color reference? I get the impression with later era IB...

USPS is very hit and miss these days....

My feeling is it's one of those unexplained Hitchcockian ' effects' he was trying, to avoid depicting the expository scene 'straight' or conventionally, in view of the fact he so often talked about his priority of affecting the audience emotionally with the visual. How well it worked??

Original mono to me means the complete composite sound track from the original release, presumably from an optical track as opposed to the track which accompanied the original Blu ray, which while containing the redone gunshots at the outset, it also included many restored sounds from the...

Isn't this Vertigo disc the same as the one in the original Hitchcock Masterpiece Collection (Blu ray reg. A), with the redone FX track that much more resembled the original Mono, rather than the original itself ?

Hopefully they improve cardboard case that holds the 6 box sets. Getting one that didn't have a crack down the seams that was damaged at some point in shipping was very challenging...

I grew up on and loved Gunsmoke in the early seventies, well into it's evolution. I recently started season one, giving myself one episode a day. Have to say this season is a tough one for me to get through....everything it became isn't even close to being there yet. Ironically I've read many...

Mr. Harris, sorry if you covered this elsewhere already, but why does the Arrow 'Far Country' release look so ordinary, IMO, in spite of touting a 4K scan from the OCN?
