Was in a local store that had the new box set on the shelf early (due next week I thought). I notice all the new to DVD releases in the box (like Speedway) are in plastic cases while Viva and Jailhouse are in cardboard snappers as with their earlier releases. Is this what it appears, same old...
Finally got around to viewing this last night. Seems to have that "Ultra-Resolution Process" that was given to Meet Me in St. Louis, though no mention of it anywhere or in the cover description. Whatever, highly recommended here! Wow, another amazing Technicolor transfer by Warners!
If no one else has picked this up or noticed yet, this is really one of the most spectacular transfers and restorations to come from an early 60's Technicolor film (to my memory) by Paramount. Just beautiful, pick this up,in the league of North By Northwest and Written On The Wind.
Since Criterion seems to have a relationship with Universal (Charade, Written on the Wind, All That Heaven Allows)...why not consider the following(?)- Madame X Backststreet maybe 30's and 60' version of both, but especilaly the Lana and Hayward versions in the 60's. Also and...
Can anyone confirm that The Ten Commandments SE, scheduled for release 3/9 is a new transfer, different from the earlier release? Also any advance word, reviews regarding the transfer?
Went to pick this up yesterday. I'm sure this must have been widescreen (1966 release), DVD box has 1.33:1. Is this the original OAR or did they do a full frame only? Open matte maybe? Wouldn't this be unusual for Columbia (classics) releases? Always anamorphic OAR from the early days of DVD in...
I know Indiana is front and center this week, but no enthusiastic postings for this other highly anticipated release also out this week? Plan to pick both up later this week...anxious to hear about the quality!
Picked it up unexpectedly yesterday while browsing at a local retailer. I thought it was scheduled for a Feb. 4 release and have been anxious for IOL's release since it was announced. Pleasant surprise to just find it out. Any reviews yet? I will have a first chance to have a look tonight.
Saw Parent Trap over the weekend (the original, 1 of the 4 Disney Vault Series released last week). I was surprised to read another thread started by a member expressing disappointment!
The quality of this vintage transfer IMHO is in the league of North By Northwest, very filmic and...
DON'T READ UNLESS YOU'VE SEEN THE MOVIE!!!
Regarding the end of Dr. Zhivago, when Uri sees who he thinks is Lara, is it Julie Christie or a double? Did Lean intend this to be Lara or an unanswered question that leaves the audience wondering. We mostly see her walking from the back. As the...
At the risk of starting this topic a little early, I thought I would ask what other forum members rank as their top 10 favorite 2001 releases (most impressive transfers) as well as 5 major disappointments.
I thought this was a monumental year for highly anticipated epic and classic releases...
I'd like some good horror movie/ reference quality DVD suggestions for a Halloween movie party I am having this weekend. Horror is not typically my genre. So far I have the new restored Exorcist. Need one or two more. Also I have Rocky Horror, but that is one what I showed last year. Doesn't...
Can anyone provide me with a phone number to call Columbia House specifically to order I Love Lucy? I have been having difficulty joining on-line and I am getting impatient.
Also, if anyone can provide an update regarding the status of I Love Lucy being released on DVD by Paramount, not through...
