+DRAGONWYCK is a rare title. As a collector years ago I had the opportunity to watch a 35MM nitrate fine grain of the film. It is, like many Fox films "head and shoulders" above many MGM titles. Everything about the film is superb and thank god Twilight Time has the opportunity to get some of...

In response to several bloggers relative to the THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD missing sequences. The 1951 full version print I loaned to Warners Archive over a decade ago was sent to Bill Rush who was at that time in charge at the vaults. It was for the express purpose to make a complete...

The newly restored cut footage from the original release release of THE THING FROM ANOTHER WORLD came from my 35MM print. which I loaned to Warners almost a decade ago. It was the full frame version, not the 1954 re-release. The original negative and fine grain was lost in a vault fire and the...

I intend to have fun with them. Bye Brian

By the way. Jack Broder did not give a damn about the negatives.on HANNAH LEE I pulled them out of a hot warehouse in LA along with a lot of prints and other materials. He also had a lot of film in a hot garage. I doubt he is spinning in his grave. He send one neg somewhere and forgot where it...

Mister 3D- Furmanek- Don't you dare " shame me " Who the hell are you to write this in a public forum ? You never miss an opportunity to try and make me look bad. There are professional film restoration people like...

On FORBIDDEN PLANET- I saw it first run in a downtown 2000 seat theater in Kansas City in grade school. I thought the film was juvenile and the robot sort of lumbering, nothing like Gort. The film,like TIME MACHINE looked like it was made for kids with the robot. Thank god they did not have...

Peter- Thank you for your advice. Distributors ARE interested right now and I am in negotiations on 11 pictures including ROBOT MONSTER. I have decided to license various films to various interested distributors to get them out faster. I have reps in the UK and once these films...

Rodney- The reason ROCKETSHIP XM was on the cover of the first issue of CINEMAGIC is the fact the editor of STARLOG, Kerry O Quinn and many of the writers there loved the film and were so excited that a group of expert and award winning filmmakers also loved the film and...

Hey Guys- This is like a broken record.. Do I need to explain things with blocks ??? a- The 3D films are ready for distribution when a distributor licenses them !!! I am NOT going to spend 20K on HANNAH LEE so a handful of collectors can see it before they die. I am...

Jason- When Hugh O Brian was here at the re-release of XM he took pictures with everyone. He loves the film. I doubt if he even saw the MST3000 version. When a star goes to an expo they are expected to be nice to fans and take pictures., and sell pictures. wade williams

John Doe- DETOUR is in the Public Domain, however I have the chain of title rights, the 35MM negative and track- Trailer 35MM Fine Grain and a very early 16MM negative made from the Fine Grain in the 1950's. The 35MM print master is NITRATE and sharp. CRITERION made overtures to license, so did...

Mike- Thank you for being sane, You are like a Petunia in an onion patch. as my grandmother would say. I have just acquired two more rather important films a science fiction film from the 30's and one of the best film from the 40's. I will let you know when to...

Bryon H- I saw FORBIDDEN PLANET when it originally opened and I believe it was in stereo sound either Perspecta of Magnetic 4 channel.. While it was ahead of it's time and was beautiful and fun, however it was made primarily for kids. ROBINSON CARUSO ON MARS was one long bore...

Travis- When ROCKETSHIP X-M was licensed to MST3000 they paid a specific amount of money to use the film for a limited time and for a licensed use. They paid for that time. They got the use they wanted and it's over. That time has come and gone for years.. What you are saying is you intend to...
