    Warner Archive Discussion Thread (FEEDBACK)

    Still don't understand the logic here. Was there an announcement, which I never read, that it would be only the initial 150 titles? Why so?

    Warner Archive Discussion Thread (FEEDBACK)

    Has anybody noticed that on both the TCM and the Movies Unlimited Web sites listing the soon-to-be-available Warner Archive titles, starting July 1, that there are ABSOLUTELY NO SUCH TITLES as Party Girl, Fallen Sparrow, Pride of the Marines, Above and Beyond, All the Brothers Were Valiant, Four...

    Warner Archive Discussion Thread (FEEDBACK)

    I'm curious how things stand for Europe. Has anybody gotten any titles yet in Europe? The Canadian service Blue Water Shipping Depot is fine and dandy for Canadians, but what about those of us in England, Germany, France? Any feedback about how things are running? It might be too early to say. I...

    I just caught up with things, Robert. The thread was a lot to read.

    Sorry! I wasn't up to date on that issue. I realize what you're saying now. Wasn't trying to be disagreeable, just annoyed at Warner's Web site with its restrictions

    Am trying to catch up with everything in this thread. I guess I posted something everybody's resolved already!

    Warner Archive Discussion Thread (FEEDBACK)

    I still think Warners ought to know that it should be done sooner rather than later. I don't buy the "customs forms" argument. Discussed ad nauseum doesn't mean Warners is doing the right thing. They're trying, maybe, but it's a ridiculous situation. We're not Plutonians in outer space, are we?

    Warner Archive Discussion Thread (FEEDBACK)

    What I also don't understand is that Warners ships all their other films to non-U.S. addresses -- but not the DVDs from its archive and seemingly not the made-to-orders deriving from the same. Don't tell me "customs forms" are such a hindrance. For Warners, with its staff doing its shipping and...

    I still think it's ridiculous that the Warner Archive as well as the made-to-order DVDs are unavailable to ship to non-U.S. addresses. I wrote Warners about it, and all they said was they'll convey my message to their supervisors. This is absurd. There is such a huge customer base outside of the...

    Warner Archive Discussion Thread (FEEDBACK)

    I've posted this before but: as opposed to what was announced in the chat session and on Robert Crawford's initial entry, the Warner Archive is NOT AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE. The DVDs can only be shipped to Stateside addresses. Does anybody know whether this is going to change? Why did Warners...

    *** Official 2009 Warner Chat and Discussion Thread

    As opposed to what was announced in the chat session and on Robert Crawford's initial entry, the Warner Archive is NOT AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE. The DVDs can only be shipped to Stateside addresses. Does anybody know whether this is going to change? Why did Warners announce worldwide availability when...

    "The Whistler," "The Falcon," "The Saint" from the '40s -- when on DVD?

    Can you recommend a Nordic or simply a Finnish Web site selling Finnish DVDs, like the one you showed, that might have some English on it? I looked at the Web site, but unfortunately the Finnish language is not so easy to read; I tried guessing, but it is too risky. I'd even be grateful if it...

    "The Whistler," "The Falcon," "The Saint" from the '40s -- when on DVD?

    Are these licensed editions from Warner Bros. by a Finnish DVD manufacturer? I have terrible experience with bootlegged editions, so anything bootlegged isn't so interesting. Are there Finnish series of RKO titles, which are commercially manufactured and at some level of quality visually and...

    "The Whistler," "The Falcon," "The Saint" from the '40s -- when on DVD?

    There were VHS editions of "The Saint" and a couple films of "The Falcon" were released on VHS too as RKO Double Features some years ago. The logic was that after Warner Bros. found out that "The Thin Man" on DVD sold well, it might be commerically viable to release the Sanders-Conway "Falcon"...

    "The Whistler," "The Falcon," "The Saint" from the '40s -- when on DVD?

    That could be answered with: on third thought, apparently you don't know. I was asking a serious question.

    "The Whistler," "The Falcon," "The Saint" from the '40s -- when on DVD?

    Does anybody have any information about whether "The Whistler" series from the '40s with Richard Dix, Columbia/Sony, "The Falcon" series with George Sanders and Tom Conway and "The Saint" series of the early 1940s with Sanders, RKO/Warner Bros., have any chance of being officially released on...
