I might have missed this somewhere in this thread, but is SHAMUS still coming out? It's not on the KL site and I'm gathering that this Tuesday's street date of 11/07/23 isn't happening.
We are finally upgrading to 4K this winter (we've had a Panasonic plasma that's worked well for 12 years) and my Oppo Blu-Ray player is finally starting to act quirky. I am near ready on pulling the plug on a region-free player from either Bombay or 220 Electronics (from whom I bought my modded...
I am going to the VIllage Theater screening next Tuesday as part of the American Cinematheque's Beyond Fest. I have a friend at Disney putting digital assets together for a release— we will see THE ABYSS and TRUE LIES (though not STRANGE DAYS— I asked) soon enough. The screening sold out just...
So excited about so many of these titles-- can't believe we're finally getting GET CRAZY! I''m curious if Kino has the rights to Mike Nichols' CARNAL KNOWLEDGE via StudioCanal. Same goes for Bill Forsyth's COMFORT AND JOY.
Not sure what the situation with TWO JAKES is, but I just got the budget-friendly THE SONS OF KATIE ELDER on Tuesday and it's definitely a pressed disc. Got FUNERAL IN BERLIN through MovieZyng.com which apparently does a lot of replication and, while Amazon apparently sells BD-Rs of that title...
Thanks to a post on Blu-Ray.com I found out about https://www.moviezyng.com, which apparently does some of the MOD titles (pressed and BD-R). They indicate what titles are pressed (FUNERAL IN BERLIN, ATLANTIC CITY) and which are BD-R (THE ODD COUPLE, etc.). I bought FUNERAL IN BERLIN and Warner...
Disappointing but thanks for the reply. It was posted on Blu-Ray.com last summer and I assumed they got a press release from you guys. Hoping SOMEONE — it would be great if it was KL — releases this at some point.
Made the call (to a caller at the Phillipines with a rooster in the background!) and got the refund. People really DO win on HTF! Thanks for the help guys!
I think it will come in a timely fashion— I got a notice from 88 Films that anything not shipped before this Wednesday (March 25) will be delayed for some time because it's coming by sea instead of plane. So the FROZEN 2 3D and RISE OF SKYWALKER 3D will come much later than expected.
I seem to be the ony person whose box survived the journey intact! That being said, it's a cumbersome thing and, with limited space in our condo, I put mine into storage already.
Called and have a new copy coming at some point -- but they're sending me a label / envelope to return the original one! I thought there was no exchange, but so be it...
I got this last week and noticed something very strange— it's the only Blu-Ray I've ever bought that completely blocks you from fast-fowarding or rewinding (at least on my Oppo). You can skip ahead to or back from a chapter stop, but the disc will not let you use the FF or RW function.
I got my copy yesterday (and it looks glorious!) from Amazon. Still waiting for my WAC copy of MERRILL'S MARAUDERS, which I ordered earlier and was released the week before THE THIN MAN! Crazy.
