Not when you can sell it as a burned disc for $19.99 a pop. But that's just rehashing old arguments, so at this point, you probably shouldn't look the remastered gift horse in the mouth.
What's funny is that the networks will complain about how increased competition from cable has ruined them, but they don't really seem to be doing anything about it. What's really telling is that after cable has almost systematically taken the 10 pm hour from the networks, CBS has gone on the...
Graphically, Southland and the Law and Order franchise are on about the same level, but tonally, I think there's a pretty substantial difference. (I have never been a fan of CBS procedurals, so I can't comment on Criminal Minds as I haven't seen it.) Law and Order will deal with an endless array...
MattH has it correct. NBC aired Season 1 in a 10 pm time slot (on Thursdays, if I recall correctly, but I don't remember well since I didn't get into the show until earlier this year). The real issue is that Season 2 was intended to air on NBC during the season they tried the great Jay Leno @ 10...
I think I may have stated this at some point earlier in this thread, but this is definitely one of my favorite Esther Williams movies. If a third volume ever comes to be, this is my no. 1 request. I've definitely played through my TCM recording of this movie more than a good portion of the...
I feel so sorry for you. As a soap fan, you must be so distraught that Shout! tried to play up your distress for comic relief. Maybe you could write them a letter!
Same here. Almost all of the items I get off Amazon are packaged well, but I also often buy multiple items to get the free shipping, so that may be an issue. The only time I ever get items sent in those bubble-wrap envelopes is when I order something from a private seller on Amazon Marketplace...
Of course, I'm all for shows running uncut, but I'm okay with them running commercials. After all, television programs were developed specifically to include commercial breaks. It's so jarring when a movie gets commercial breaks because the movie was never intended to have the breaks in the...
This one sentence is pure nonsense. Like any other person on this board, I don't like it when any TV show remains uncompleted due to poor sales, but c'mon, Shout! Factory is a business -- if a product they invested in isn't selling to their expectations, then of course they're not going to...
That certainly sucks. Hearing a story like this reminds me as to exactly why I've still held out on the MOD programs, despite there being some movies available that I wouldn't mind owning. Were you at least able to make a digital back-up copy of those two discs before they failed? If I end up...
Thanks for the response! From everything I'd read, that was the situation I was guessing, but I really wanted to have confirmation before I pre-ordered the pre-code set.
So, after having read the entire thread to make sure that I didn't miss something, I have a dumb question: has it been determined which sets are pressed and which are burned? Is it a situation in which the first run of sets are pressed and then all runs afterward are burned? Or is it a surprise...
I've been wondering the same thing with the remaining unreleased Esther Williams films. By now, I've figured they would eventually be sent to DVD-R hell, but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't still holding onto a sliver of hope that Volume 3 will be released in the TCM Spotlight series. I admit, I...
More Adam-12 should be coming later this year, as per this post: http://www.hometheaterforum.com/forum/thread/305588/shout-factory-s-2011-dvd-line-up-tentative/300#post_3784342. That doesn't, however, count as an official announcement.
Congratulations! That's an enormous undertaking. How many of the films had you seen before you began the challenge began? Also, maybe I'm crazy, but I might consider this idea for myself. I definitely don't have enough time to do it in one year, that's for sure, but I don't think I'd want to...
