    I never saw the show when it was originally broadcast. The only bumper that I can tell that it has is The Avengers In Color one at the beginning that lasts a few seconds.

    Avengers: Season 5 (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    I just got my copy today and completely agree with you. This is a major step up over the old A&E DVD's, these do seem to come from the same source as the Optimum DVD's. The colors really pop, really good detail and I don't notice any PAL speed up. I did notice the runtimes run around 52 minutes...

    TWILIGHT RELEASES LACK OF INTEREST

    Well I'm 27 and love classic movies, especially musicals. But agree that there is not many of us. The only people I know who love classics in my age range is my brother and his girlfriend. I remember going to see Ben-Hur with my brother at an AMC theater here in St. Louis for only $3. There was...

    Amazon relents on Sales Tax, sets sights on Same Day Delivery instead

    Never had any issues with USPS, when I had an Amazon Prime free trial last year I received several movies that were damaged on arrival from UPS. Whenever I sell stuff on eBay I use USPS to ship it.

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ Vertigo -- in Blu-ray

    Always been a huge fan of Kim Novak. I don't think any other actress could of played the role as well as Kim Novak. I also really like her in Bell, Book, and Candle. Great actress.

    The Twilight Zone

    I too find the episode very creepy and really like it. My favorite episode of the series is probably Eye Of The Beholder but there are so many great episodes in this series.

    The Avengers and The New Avengers OOP on DVD. The Saint and The Persuaders!?

    I've owned the Optimum UK DVD's for both Series 4 and Series 5 of The Avengers for a while now and have always been impressed with the transfers and the many special features. It is very disappointing that there still is no NTSC Region 1 release with the new remasters but for me these DVD's are...

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ Fox Cinema Archives - DVD

    I have never bought any Fox MOD titles mostly because of the issues with transfers on certain titles. I have bought many Warner Archive DVD's and hope Fox will eventually get up to the consistent quality of the WAC.

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ The Great Escape -- in Blu-ray

    Just finished watching the movie and am very impressed with the Bluray as well. I thought it was a major step up from the SE DVD. The DVD had a lot of digital noise while the Bluray has more detail and nice grain structure. Completely agree with RAH review.

    Universal prepping Touch of Evil, High Plains Drifter and Double Indemnity

    I own the France Digibook version of Touch of Evil and it actually has all three cuts spread over two discs. The first disc has the restored cut, and the second disc seamlessly branches the other two cuts. Has the exact same special features as the 50th anniversary Edition DVD set that came out...
