    Will Around the World in 80 Days ever get a special deluxe edition like The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm?

    Thanks for that Roland, now I know so many others went to the “80 Days” quite a few times. My 5 visits caused concern from my parents at the time, so they did not need to worry. In 1966 they reissued the film and by then I was a projectionist at the Grand Theater in Keokuk. The print was IB...

    Will Around the World in 80 Days ever get a special deluxe edition like The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm?

    I don’t know about a possible 4K disc that would be up to WB Archives. I personally like the idea of an isolated music track, several years ago I was given a CD that has many more cues than appear on the “80 Days” Decca album. However, I don’t know if any other music elements exist to...

    Will Around the World in 80 Days ever get a special deluxe edition like The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm?

    “Grimm” did make money according to the records I have seen years back and also John Sittig from Cinerama Inc, told me this as well as Cinerama had all the BO stats. I guess it’s still making money as we speak, I have noticed it at least 3 times so far on TCM plus the Blu-ray sales. Naturally...

    Will Around the World in 80 Days ever get a special deluxe edition like The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm?

    I agree with Robert. I have seen the HD version of the 24 fps on Amazon Prime or perhaps some other streaming service can’t remember which and it looked pretty good other than some neg dirt and some flickering here and there, but seemed very watchable to me. Dave

    Will Around the World in 80 Days ever get a special deluxe edition like The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm?

    Some more weighing in responses on “80 Days” etc. Let’s hope Robert Harris is correct and that “80 Days” will generate a nice profit once again. The main goal here is to deal with the 30 fps version which is more true to the original intent of the Todd-AO format. I understand that the negs have...

    Will Around the World in 80 Days ever get a special deluxe edition like The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm?

    Weighing in on “80 Days” Yes, I have had talks with WB about performing digital image clean-up work on “80 Days.” This is mostly due to the wonderful response to the work having been done on “Brothers Grimm.” A little more than a year ago a good friend of mine who has followed my career of...

    UHD Review Blu-ray Review A Few Words About A few words about…™ The Finest Film Restoration Effort of 2022

    WOW – I gotta have this film in my collection! Reading about all the restoration trouble they had on “Out of The Blue” I just ordered my copy. I kept thinking that another group had many more crazy problems than Tom March and I had on our “Project Grimm” or for that matter on any of the former...

    Press Release Warner Archive Collection Press Release: The Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm (1962) (Blu-ray)

    My wife, Carin-Anne, adapted an original designed poster used at Cinerama theaters then totally cleaned it up and added more color to the characters. We felt the characters were way too brownish to go with the technicolor label on the film and we tried to get a technicolor look to our...

    My 2 cents worth on “Brothers Grimm”

    Brothers Grimm on a curved screen! The Final test for the restoration was to watch the entire film (4K DCP SmileBox) on a louvered 146 degree Cinerama screen at Tom March’s screening room. SmileBox will fit beautifully on a curved screen as well as a flat screen. These louvers were cut or...

    My 2 cents worth on “Brothers Grimm”

    Some answers to recent questions Original data is still there is a correct statement. As part of this restoration we created a 6K un touched composite widescreen master of the show for any future work - which I can only assume will never take place. This is just what any good restorationist...

    My 2 cents worth on “Brothers Grimm”

    Recently it was decided to delay the release until early next year perhaps even February. This way it can be a 60th Anniversary release with several bonus extras which we are still working on. Just now we are finishing up the documentary on the restoration called "Rescuing a Fantasy Classic"...

    My 2 cents worth on “Brothers Grimm”

    Hello Cinerama and “Wonderful World of the Brothers Grimm” fans. Originally our digital restoration of the film was to come out in the fall of 2021 but after some discussions with George Feltenstein, who is now back hard at work at Warner Bros. we both agreed it would be best to make this a...
