    Best movie studio documentary recommendations

    Hollywood is absolutely sensational. Found the VHS brick at a yard sale last summer and have watched it through multiple times. Definitely worth seeking out.

    EVITA- bluray 5-22-12.

    That part of the shot is manipulated to be out of focus to hide how very pregnant Madonna was by that point in the shoot, one of many little tricks used. It was like that in the theater, I remember commenting on it at the time.

    WHV Announcement: Tiny Toons Adventures How I Spent My Vacation

    This is a pleasant surprise. I still have my VHS from 100 years ago. I bet I still know this film line by line.

    Universal To Celebrate 100 Years in 2012

    The "Spotlight Collection" is a bunch of multi-pack films similar to the TCM Greatest Classic Films sets or the 20th Century Fox Classic Quad packs from last year. I've seen the releases in stores and it carries forward all of the bonus features from the original releases. It just seems very...

    "The Piano" Blu Ray - Missing subtitles?

    Jane Campion's published screenplay contains the subtitles. This disc would seem to be hugely flawed. Too bad, it's a great movie.

    Is the a market still for "Greed" or "The Big Parade", et al?

    I grabbed the DVD at a Best Buy. They had a few of the Blu-ray in the new release section but only had one dvd back in the catalog section. I think perhaps Paramount overestimated the ratio of Blu to DVD buyers for this title, since the blu is still available on amazon. Regardless, it is a great...

    How "realistic" is finding your "Holy Grail?"

    My holy grail is the rest of SCTV, and that seems highly unlikely, sadly. I also second the completion of The Big Valley (has anyone asked SHOUT! about that one?)

    Simpsons: The Incomplete Seventh Season - "Much Apu about Nothing" ???

    I know that occasionally there are alternate audio tracks used, that's possibly what has happened here. In one cut Bart says 'Hey, we live here' as blocking the map and in another (and the dvd) he says 'What are you guys doing?'.... Frankly the joke is better as it is on the dvd, are we really...

    The Magnificent Ambersons (finally!) coming this Fall - with possible caveats

    Warner simultaneously released the two new-to-dvd Tracy & Hepburn films separate from the box earlier in the year, so hopefully they would do the same with Ambersons. I'm cautiously optimistic until an official announcement. .... Although the lack of features for a picture with this kind of...

    Shout! Factory's 2011 DVD Line-Up (Tentative)

    Has Shout! looked into the rights for Bernard Rose's "Paperhouse" (1988), a terrific little cult horror movie?

    Maude- Season 2?

    I really hope All In The Family is doing well for Shout! and that they will pick up Maude. I wasn't even alive when the show was on, but I've watched the season 1 dvds backwards and forwards and have never seen any other episodes.

    Shout! Factory's 2011 DVD Line-Up (Tentative)

    Thank you for the response, although it's not the answer I was hoping for.... What about "Designing Women"? Will that continue with Shout!?

    Shout! Factory's 2011 DVD Line-Up (Tentative)

    2 questions: Is "Carnosaur" among the Corman titles that shout will be releasing? and Will the final two seasons of "Mad About You" get released?

    USHE Announcement: The Barbara Stanwyck Collection

    This is very disappointing. I love Stanwyck and had never seen any of the movies in the set and was very excited for it. What do you suppose the chances of a replacement disc are?

    Murder, She Wrote: Season 9 DVD boxset?

    It would be a shame not to finish this series. they were released so consistently that the lack of news is disconcerting. Four more sets and a set of the tv movies would be terrific.
