    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    I learned from this thread that the "Made In Mexico" stamp on the packaging was a sign the dvds were not from the impacted factory/plant. l only found the Complete Hepburn/Tracy box set to be "Made In Mexico", ironically most of those I have on blu-ray. I am at the point where I may just toss...

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    Phew, this list is depressing. Since I worked near a long gone brick and mortar store (J & R Music World) and usually bought them all on Day One, are there any Warner box sets that did *not* experience rot? Some day I may just throw away all of the box sets I have that are referenced on the...

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    I routinely purchased virtually every new Warner box set on their Day One release at the now defunct J and R Music World in Lower Manhattan. So for those of us who bought the box sets upon their first release, it may be easier to identify the Warner box sets released post-2010. Does a list of...

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    Thanks to roger.howerton's list I decided to further explore my own dvd sets beyond the ones I already knew about and I began by opening the James Stewart box set, which in all likelihood I purchased on 8/15/06. Anyway, The Stratton Story pixilated beyond belief with about 10 minutes to go...

    Oh you absolutely have to send a gentle email reminder or 2. I had to do that last year and she quickly responded with an apology and a week later, the MOD dvds.

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    CDUniverse has on sale right now a similar TCM- Esther Williams collection with "Bathing Beauty," "On an Island With You,"Neptune's Daughter" and "Dangerous When Wet." It was under $15 when I looked a few minures ago.

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    I watched Border Incident from the Film Noir 3 Box Set, thankfully it played just fine. What a movie - I could not believe Anthony Mann got this through MGM in 1949. I know this is a dvd thread, but I also wanted to watch my bluray of The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance - and it would not play...

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    I no longer had my receipts and since virtually all of my Warner dvd box sets were purchased at the now-defunct J & R Music World in Lower Manhattan, I had nothing to offer - and I never shopped online in those days. I advised Sheri of that in my letter. I received my replacement dvds without...

    Yes*!! *Except for The Wizard Of Oz and Gone With The Wind, since I have enough editions to fill several shelves.

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    I definitely waited too long to check my dvds. I mentioned upthread that I am being sent a mailing label to return that Forbidden Hollywood disc and the I Love You Again disc, but I subsequently advised them of additional disc issues and received an unexpected answer. The response I received to...

    Warner DVD's not working thread - watch to make sure they still play

    I finally began reluctantly checking my collection. I say "reluctantly" because I purchased most the week they hit the store shelves, but many have never been opened by me. Sure enough the playing side of the Forbidden Hollywood Collection Volume 2 disc of The Divorce and A Free Soul was...
