(Also known as the Princeton Graphics AF3.0HD)
This is an absolute blast from the past, likely of niche interest only. So, I won't explain a lot about its technical aspects, but will offer a few comments on its condition (most excellent). Those who may be interested will likely already know...
I wonder if anyone has seen these three titles from this collection, yet. I'm particularly interested in "Kid Millions". Perhaps some ebay seller will break up the collection and sell individual titles. DG
Does that mean that some of the titles in the list under 3-Strip are, in fact, dye transfer, but not 3-Strip? Is there a way I can distinguish between the two? Thank you. DG P.S. I'm very uncertain about the "PD" and "OOP" indications.
I updated the DVD availability of the list at the top of the thread. Please identify any errors. 1) I edited sources for completeness 2) I added "Dangerous When Wet" (1953). 3) Updated DVD availability for all titles 4) Is the division between 3-strip and non 3-strip at the proper...
Wadda ya know... Here I am minding my own business, when, out of the clear blue, Chas brings up "Sky King". :-) I'm in for season sets. Every Sat.... my sister, who liked horses, had to watch "Fury". I was into airplanes, and couldn't miss "Sky King" which was on right after, as I recall...
It seems like this one just sort of faded away.
Such a unique show. I'm eager to buy it all. I guess the only real reason a studio fails to follow through on a series is insufficient sales, right?
So, that must be the case with Green Acres, I suppose.
Just wondering...

So, regarding the new SP dvd, do I understand correctly that: 1) We do have a pretty-close-but-not-100% version of the original road show version. 2) We do have the shortened, non-roadshow version. 3) We do not have the broadway continuity in either. 4) The broadway continuity is...
This is such a fantastic idea, may I suggest to WB that they do something similar for a second Busby Berkeley collection. I eat this stuff up. Regards, DG
:) ...I'm wondering if my S1 DVD is an anomaloy? On the episode menu of the DVD, only the 1st episode is selectable. I use a software player (PowerDVD) to view my DVDs, and I have to use the PowerDVD "Go To" menu choice to get to any episode other than the very first one. Anyone else...
Perhaps it is the soaring, sweeping, orchestral melodic arc that evokes the Romantic Period in Western Music. Perhaps it is just nostalgia. I don't know, but, if I have to pick just one theme, I'd pick "Twelve O'Clock High". DG
Well, we had new releases of 1945 and 1962 State Fair, and Will Rogers box set, and no sign of 1933 State Fair. Does this suggest that 1933 State Fair on DVD is just not in the cards? I've never actually seen it, but would buy it, were it available. DG
Thank you for the informative interview. I would ask a question, just as a matter of curiosity, and not criticism. Why couldn't the day-for-night be adjusted digitally? I think Mr. Price spoke to it, but his comments didn't quite penetrate my thick skull. (Naively) I would think that...
Since "Mr. Terrific" and "Captain Nice" were each partial seasons, and sort of the same offbeat kind of show, maybe they could be a single box set. I remember (vaguely) watching several of each of them when they originally aired. Which of these series had the father always sitting in an...
I'm wondering if it may be possible to identify a movie I saw on a local PBS station a few years ago. It was some University class supplement show, and it featured movies mostly from the 1940's, as I recall. I don't remember anything about the movie, except that everybody talked very fast. I...
I mostly remember "My Three Sons" when Mike was present, and before Ernie was adopted. (Wasn't there a season, or at least a few episodes, when Mike was gone ["went off to college" I think]?). Which seasons were pre-Ernie? (Well, I mean Ernie as Chip's friend, not one of the sons). DG
Don't really know how we forgot about "Fred & Ginger". I think I actually prefer "Shall We Dance" to "Top Hat". Isn't "Show Time" the one with the ballet and also where all the dancers at the end have Ginger Rogers masks? I really like that amalgam of dance genres. Now I wonder if "Show Time"...
I got the Busby Berkeley Collection recently. All I can say is, I had no idea what I was in for. I didn't really know who Busby Berkeley was. When a poster suggested "any Busby Berkely" to add to the list, I added it, but had no clue. I didn't even make the connection with "42nd Street"...
Check, check, check, and check. Wallet locked and loaded. DG P.S. [OT] Regarding all the Powells (Dick, William, Eleanor, Jane, and any others). Are any of them related?
