I just saw this page at Amazon, with a street date of July 16th-- https://www.amazon.com/Adam-at-M-Michael-Douglas/dp/B07RS9274V/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1RPGWZTR0XQGH&keywords=adam+at+6+am+dvd&qid=1562521724&s=gateway&sprefix=adam+at%2Caps%2C204&sr=8-1 Appears to be a DVD-only release, from Paramount...

I've had my Optoma projector for a couple of years now, with no other problems, but from Day 1, it's had a mildly-annoying signal flicker whenever I play streaming video from my Roku 3 device. The flashing/flicker is exactly like what is seen on this guy's YouTube video: I've gone into the...

At this point, I'd say the chances are pretty slim that we'll ever see official releases of Dragnet (1950s version), Seasons 2 & 3 of One Step Beyond or more of The Jack Benny Program (apart from Shout's Jack Benny: The Lost Episodes, which I already own). Sure, miracles can occasionally...

...things like "Chiller Theatre" from WPIX-11 out of New York, WGN-9 Chicago's "Creature Features" and WKGB/WLVI-56 Boston's "Creature Double Feature"... ...so I recently made a couple of my own, just for fun, using free audio/video editing software: :popcorn:

RolandL's thread, inquiring about the two 3D Three Stooges shorts that still aren't on 3D Blu-ray, inspired me to similarly ask about the small handful of classic-era cartoon shorts, all shot in native 3D, that are likewise missing-in-action on the 3D Blu format. Fortunately, through the...

With the recent "crystal ball" thread that indicates that we'll be getting (barring any complications) a cluster of Fox and Four Star westerns sometime in the near future, including one of my "holy grails", The Westerner, I've been thinking about what's left, as far as what I'd still be...

This has puzzled me a lot, through this modern "golden age" of TV drama we're been living in for the past decade or so. While popular songs and other pre-existing music has featured in many TV series since the beginning of the medium (and the long-term rights issues surrounding them have often...

It's Sunday afternoon as I write this, and I've been thinking of an area of vintage TV-on-DVD that has largely been neglected: the general-appeal non-fiction/documentary series, many of which used to air on weekend afternoons and evenings, especially Sunday afternoons. Sure, a few have come...

This thread is somewhat related to my earlier thread, "Classic and/or popular series you've never really watched"... The majority of those I listed there I have little interest in seeing, plus the time factor that would be involved if I was foolish enough to attempt that with so many series...

Some comments in various recent threads got me thinking on how my current collection breaks down. I've listed mine chronologically, categorized by decade (or the decade they began in, for shows that straddled decades), followed by: 1.) the main reason I own it 2.) if I own it on blu-ray 3.)...

Reading the threads for 'Your Top 5 Shows' of both the 1960s and 1950s got me thinking... Sometimes a topic like this comes up on movie forums; you have a bunch of film buffs confessing to some major films they've, as yet, never seen, or have only seen bits of, which would floor people who...

I've been meaning to start a topic like this for several years now, from reading (and sometimes starting) threads like 'Hope for long lost shows?', 'Is the b&w era of TV on DVD slowly coming to and end?' and the innumerable 'Most wanted short-lived TV shows' and 'Is ______ coming to DVD?' posts...

I just noticed on Amazon that the Roku 3 only outputs HDMI. I have an HDMI jack on my Panasonic plasma TV, but my a/v receiver is an older Pioneer model, with no HDMI jacks, only RCA jacks. One of the primary reasons I want the Roku is to stream Netflix (and other services) without having to...

Sure, if you're a TV-on-DVD/Blu fan, you usually want complete runs of your favorite series. Sometimes, though, especially if it's a long-running series with major, arguably detrimental cast changes, or has altered in tone or quality due to a new producer or writing staff, or had just worn out...

Just a heads-up, there's a big title dump coming in a little less than a month. Many of these are MGM-owned titles; Netflix isn't losing MGM completely (ala Starz), because there are other MGM titles debuting on their streaming service soon, like REMO WILLIAMS: THE ADVENTURE BEGINS and HOOSIERS...

Looks like Bob Clampett's animated BEANY & CECIL (as well as its puppet-show precusor, TIME FOR BEANY), is coming back to DVD after a ten-year hiatus (VOL. 1 was released by Image Entertainment in late 1999, and is long out-of-print), this time through Hen's Tooth Video on Sept 8th (according to...

I was watching THE MIST on DVD the other day, and in the disc's Special Features interview segment with Stephen King and director Frank Darabont, King briefly recalls the half-hour suspense anthology series, PANIC!, with some fondness. That was enough for me to do a little research. It ran...

Submitted for your approval, eight westerns, currently part of MGM Home Entertainment's library, that deserve to be widely available in proper form on R1 DVD: 1. THE WESTERNER (1940) A high point for Gary Cooper, Walter Brennan (winning him a Best Supporting Actor Oscar) and director William...

A heads-up to fans of 1960s TV-- a number of retailers, including Deep Discount DVD, DVD Empire and DVD Pacific are now taking pre-orders for I DEAL IN DANGER (1966), which was a theatrically-released feature made from a few episodes of the 1966 WWII espionage TV series, THE BLUE LIGHT, starring...

English-dubbed anamorphic widescreen editions of KING KONG VS. GODZILLA (1962) and KING KONG ESCAPES (1968) apparently will street on Tues, 11/29/05, MSRP $19.95. Davis DVD just broke the news today, and the double-feature DVD is listed at Universal's website. Woo-hoo!!! :) :emoji_thumbsup...

Dark Sky Films, a new "cult film" subsidiary of MPI Home Video, is apparently putting out THE INVISIBLE MAN, Vol. 1, containing the first 13 episodes (out of 26 total) of the 1958 half-hour filmed British series (which used to be rerun several years ago on the Sci-Fi Channel, in the wee hours of...

To the best of my knowledge, these haven't seen a legit home video release in the U.S.A. (certainly not DVD). Since they're usually aired on American TV in a package (together with the MGM/RKO Tarzan films of the 1930s-50s), it's hard to tell whether the actual domestic home video rights are...

Did the industrial model, Pioneer CLD-E2000 (circa 1994), really have digital field memory for CLV trick play? I've seen a source or two that claims it did, but another claims that it was nearly identical to Pioneer's consumer model, CLD-S201, which looked like it didn't have the digital...

A multiple heads-up to my fellow film buffs in the USA here, as I spotted these while I was skimming through Turner Classic Movies' schedules for May & June 2005 (all times Eastern): Tuesday, May 3rd, 2:00 AM Sergio Leone's THE COLOSSUS OF RHODES (1961), starring Rory Calhoun, Lea Massari...

Just a heads-up that the "2001" of ant invasion flicks, PHASE IV (1974), will air on Turner Classic Movies (TCM) tonight, Wednesday June 30th, at 8 PM (Eastern). The only feature-length film directed by famed title designer, Saul Bass. It hasn't been shown much on North American TV in the last...

Paramount/Martin Blythe, Well, Martin, you were true to your word, posted here nearly a year ago. Though a "bare-bones" release, the anamorphic widescreen print of THE PRESIDENT'S ANALYST looks excellent, and most importantly, all the original music is indeed restored! Thank you very much for...

The R1 DVD of THE PRESIDENT'S ANALYST won't street until June 8. From the specs, it looks like it will get "bare-bones" treatment (no trailer), but will be in 2.35:1 anamorphic widescreen. Paramount's Martin Blythe indicated on these boards last year that the attempt was going to be made to...

How about prepping widescreen R1 DVD editions of KING KONG VS. GODZILLA (1962) and KING KONG ESCAPES (1968), perhaps as a double-feature DVD (with the original theatrical trailers included), to tie-in with the new film? Couldn't hurt, and I'd certainly buy them.

Warner, You are currently my favorite of the major DVD companies, literally opening the floodgates in the last year and releasing an astounding number of classics on DVD in fine condition, and at very reasonable prices. However, one arm of your catalog hasn't been utilized much lately: ALLIED...

Buena Vista was supposed to release this buggily beautiful gem in R1 yesterday (Tues, 1/13/04), but DEEP DISCOUNT DVD dropped it from their site, and it doesn't seem to be in stock yet at AMAZON, DVD EMPIRE, etc. DVD PRICE SEARCH claims it's out, but they might be on auto-pilot with that info...
