    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ A Clockwork Orange -- in 4k UHD Blu-ray

    Leaving the marketing aside, would that mean 4K is truly best suited for anything shot in 70mm and worthy 35mm films where suitable elements still exist?

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ Universal Classic Monsters -- in 4k UHD

    Out of curiosity, are any of the 35mm sources for these films extant nitrate prints or later dupes? Of course if dupes are all you have you take what you can get, but I was wondering if Universal just did not want to go through the effort and expense of looking for the best sources and used what...

    A Few Words About A few words about…™ Bugs Bunny 80th Anniversary Collection – in Blu-ray

    The Golden Collections, other than some of the later volumes having a tendency to have self destructing DVDs a-la nearly ALL WB US HD-DVDs, were a lot of fun and it was too bad WB killed the series. They have a nice assortment of all LT characters on each set and is a nice balance compared to...

Also the two Orson Welles documentaries ( Arena and Citizen Kane) on Blu-Ray. They...

    Will the MGM library sale to Amazon affect the work done at Warner Archive?

    TBH, I'm sort of surprised WB never attempted to buy MGM and just own it all out right. That would have also given them access to Bond and that would have been a nice addition to their roster. Buying Turner in the 90's returned all of their pre-1947 content back so there is SOME precedent...

    A Few Words About While we wait for A few words about...™ Lawrence of Arabia -- in 4k/UHD Blu-ray

    I saw the restoration at the Ziegfeld Theater in NYC ( What a loss) Stunning. My first time seeing it. What a career to be able to rescue these films and make them look new again or ever better than originally released. I know it is a lot of hard work, but the rewards of seeing the restored...

    Pre-Order Shout Factory Press Release: The Oh, God! Collection (1977-1984) (Blu-ray)

    Perhaps including clips of Burns on the various talk shows of the day when he was promoting the movie. For some dumb reason I can clearly remember seeing him on Merv Griffin talking about the second movie and at that the time he said it was titled Oh God, Oh God. Perhaps he just said it wrong or...
