    New release of The Return Of The Pink Panther

    A new widescreen release of The Return Of The Pink Panther is due on January 10th. As fans of the Pink Panther series are aware, the previous release was pretty bad as far as picture and audio quality are concerned. Does anyone have any details on this new release? It is priced as low as...

    What happened to these planned DVD releases?

    I have been monitoring the various DVD websites for some time and have picked up snippets of info about various promised DVD releases, either first time, updated, or special edition. However, I have yet to see any definite information about the following: True Lies To Be Or Not To Be (the...

    Anyone remember the movie, Electric Dreams?

    Yes, I know it's kind of a silly movie. However, on a higher level, it takes a satirical look at artificial intelligence. (Computers have feelings, too, you know.) I still have the MGM laserdisc of this film. However, a search on MGM's website yielded no results. I guess I'll never see it on...

    Excessive packaging of DVDs

    Today I picked up the new Special Editions of Angel Heart and The Great Escape. Each came in a keepcase and included a cardboard sleeve which exactly duplicated the artwork of the keepcase paper insert. The cardboard sleeve for The Great Escape also had a foldout that featured multiple pictures...

    Waiting for a few good DVDs

    Now that The Star Wars trilogy and Rustlers' Rhapsody DVDs are on the way, I would hate to think that I should give up on OAR DVDs of The Jerk, My Blue Heaven, The Man With Two Brains and Grumpy Old Men. Also it seems MGM has no plans to release Electric Dreams. However, I am still holding...
