Hey Simon! A fellow South Aussie!!!! I work at Kmart and got quite excited at all the Warner DVDs coming through for an early "Mother's Day" promotion - and was so tempted to buy the three DD films (By The Light; Lucky Me & On Moonlight Bay) and just get the rest in R1 - but when I saw the...
I don't think that one number Judy & Mickey did in "Words And Music" would qualify for it being released in this set - I assume that Warners might want to save WAM for maybe a Composer's Collection...but it would be nice if they included "Thoroughbreds Don't Cry" - even as a Special Feature like...
Just wondering does anyone know if "Young At Heart" is controlled in anyway by Warners? Because the current R1 Republic Pictures/Artisan issue isn't very good - cropped to full screen etc etc - I see that Universal released it in R2 - does anyone know if that is superior to the R1 version? I...
I just posted this on another forum - this would be my 2 cents on how Warner's should release the last Judy films: I see that Warner's is releasing a second "Doris Day Collection" in April - hopefully they might do a follow up to the first Judy boxset too? Maybe include the already...
I don't suppose the "Romance Of Celluloid" on the Marie Antoinette is this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0304162/ I have been wanting to see "Hollywood Goes To Town" for a while now - would be a nice inclusion on the disc - also I believe a radio broadcast from the premiere was recorded too...
Judy Garland was actually 16 when she played Dorothy who in the movie remains ageless - but is hinted in the pre-production to be a 12 year old Kansas girl - not a far cry for Judy who would continue to play roles her Junior (especially her Role as Betsy Booth in several of the Andy Hardy films)...
Ok - so no one remembers the "syringe scene"?! I was so sure I saw it - I guess the original Australian Theatrical Cut isn't different to the U.S.?! Either way I was still upset that they didn't include it on the DVD!!
Was anyone else dissapointed with the lack of deleted scenes on these DVDs?? I know the first thing I did when I bought the set was go to the deleted scenes in FOREVER, hoping to see the scene where the Riddler injects Chase with some green goo - I remember this scene from when I saw it in...
On the laserdisc of "A Christmas Carol" they include the Technicolor print of Judy Garland singing Silent Night for the MGM Christmas trailer - and I think this is the only place that you can get it in color comercially!! So I hope that Warner releases that with it as well!!
about the Rhino/Warner pairing I asked Judy Garland historian John Fricke about this recently on a Garland group to which he replied "Rhino and Turner/Warner are still associated. But as Rhino has the rights to release music from that film library on compact disc, the various recording...
Being a big Oz fan this would be my idea of a perfect special edition: The Film (obviously hehe) in Ultra Resolution 5.1 plus the original Mono soundtrack Instead of the "sing-a-long" version (which to me seems like a waste of time as really they could just put an alternate subtitle...
Has anyone mentioned PIGSKIN PARADE being a Judy Garland fan I would LOVE to see her first feature film released on DVD - it was on the "Studio Classic" collection on VHS but never came on laserdisc - also note-worthy for an early appearace by Betty Grable also would like to see Valley Of...
Yeah, I really liked the music to PEPE, and even bought the CD soundtrack (released by Collector's Choice) earlier this year - Shirley Jones' title song is fun, and I love Judy Garland's haunting rendition of "The Faraway Part of Town" - that's amazing that Pepe got a re-issue in a theatre!! I...
This has been very interesting reading about the "lost" films and different soundtracks - just wondering has there been any new word (since 1983) of a complete print of "A Star is Born" (1954) being in existance?? Ron Haver's book was very fascinating to read, and although I love the re-issued...
THE WIZARD OF OZ - with all the silent footage taken by Harold Arlen (they didn't include the emerald city footage in the current DVD release:frowning: ) A STAR IS BORN (1954) Maybe include the extended edition and the cut version with the found footage for people who don't like the stills ~...
