Thanks for a good laugh to brighten up a drab Monday afternoon! :)

It is fun to see this advertisement for CAMELOT playing in 70mm and 6-track at the Fox Wilshire, although it doesn t indicate the date. It is obviously a re-issue, but the fact that the phone number starts with letters indicates it was a while ago. As a kid I was taken to see THE SOUND OF MUSIC...

Yes, I should say that, even for an "average consumer" like me, MY FAIR LADY on blu-ray is impossible to watch without constantly thinking about the lack of care given to it. It is the only blu-ray that I have ever taken the time to write (via snail mail) a letter of complaint to the home video...

But tell us how you really feel... :) This is disappointing, and I knew that the sound was not right on this blu-ray. In another thread, you mentioned that the first pan & scan laserdisc was the last format to use the original 4-track mix. This weekend, I plan to get this laserdisc out (I still...
