    Your thoughts on Kino-Lorber Blu-rays

    Does anyone have info on the Blu-ray mastering for the Audie Murphy Collection, vol. 2? (Sierra, Kansas Raiders, Destry). Usually the announcement comes with info like “New 2K scan from the original camera negative“ but I can’t find that info for this set.

    Pre-Order Terror in a Texas Town (1958) (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    They’re also releasing Revolt at Fort Laramie on April 25, listed by Amazon as MGM MOD. So maybe the program has been revived…? I’m guessing they’re going to use whatever master they have on hand, though.

    The Larry Blamire Teatment...and the Skeletons in his closet!!

    I remember seeing The Lost Skeleton of Cadavra at the Landmark Midtown Art theater here in Atlanta with a friend, and boy, did we have a great time. We still talk about it all the time. I met Mr. Blamire at a Monsterama con a few years ago (great little Atlanta con for monster fans), and he...

    Your thoughts on Kino-Lorber Blu-rays

    Maria Montez/Jon Hall set (White Savage/Gypsy Wildcat/Sudan) -- blu-ray info says 2K scans, but nothing about the elements used. Anyway, if you measure by the standard used by another company releasing three-strip Technicolor films, these won't be in that league. Color nice, but not...

    Press Release Lionsgate Press Release: Everything Everywhere All At Once (4k UHD Combo) (Blu-ray)

    Everything Everywhere All At Once is my favorite movie of 2022 (so far) and as much as I'm looking forward to watching the 4K disc (arrived yesterday), it really is the kind of visually eye-popping experience you need to see in the theater. And it still is in theaters, so go now! Besides, who...

    Press Release Criterion Press Release: Summertime (1955) (Blu-ray)

    I watched Summertime streaming in 1:37 aspect ratio on the Criterion channel, and to my completely untutored, layperson's eye, the shots that were mostly just of Venice cityscapes looked fine in 1:37, but most of the shots with the characters obviously had too much headroom. It would be...

    Press Release PHE Press Release: The Godfather Trilogy (4k UHD) (Blu-ray) (including gift set and reissues)

    Got my Godfather set today. Put in the first disc. Looks really gorgeous all right. Though it looks weirdly too contemporary. So I know where RAH is coming from, even though I'm your average viewer and no expert. Major problem though: The Godfather (disc 1) keeps freezing in chapter 8 (I...

    Heard from KL again. They're fixing the Blue Skies master and will redo the discs, and should be able to send them out by late April or early May. They'll be sharing replacement disc links soon. Thanks so much to Kino Lorber!

    I messaged KL regarding the muffled taps audio problem on Blue Skies and they responded that they're looking into this and if the issues are confirmed, they'll set up a disc replacement program.

    I just watched Blue Skies and you’re absolutely correct. The taps are missing! I just sent KL a message about this. I hope we hear back from them soon.
