    Well, I don't think that's going to happen.

    If a Blu-ray release can’t be done right then Warner will not released it. It’s been their policy.

    I didn't take it as great news as there doesn't appear to be anything imminent regarding this title as it has some big issues to overcome.

    I wonder why because that would be a deal breaker for me?

    I disagree, I watched a good portion of it today and thought it looked much better than previous showings on TCM.

    I'm going to take a closer look at it over the next day or so. I actually want to sit down and watch the entire movie.

    RAINTREE COUNTY on Blu?

    On my DirecTV Guide for Channel 256 which is TCM there is no HD designation for "Raintree County" on the Guide. There is a HD designation on the Guide for "Far From the Madding Crowd" which immediately follows "Raintree County". It's been years since I last watched "Raintree County" in its...

    I have Filmstruck and just watched a portion of it and found there is two versions. The short version is in its proper OAR and is in HD. The extended version is in 1.85:1 ratio. I'm assuming TCM is showing the shorter version. Also, there is no HD designation to "Raintree County" on TCM like...

    It doesn't so let's move on from that attempted diversion.

    RAINTREE COUNTY on Blu?

    There is another thread in the TV viewing area about TCM now showing several movies in actual HD. This is a new development that has happened lately over the last several weeks. Granted, not all of their showings are in HD, but the number of showings has increased in which movies like Patton...

    I think they put quality first to a certain extent.

    Talk about ripping the hearts out of those that love this film.

    When I voted this morning, the number of votes changed to plus 1 from the previous number.

    You're right, all of us should be voting for it now. I just did.

    I'm sorry for misunderstanding your point.

    Nor, do I think he was complaining, but pointing out that it could of look even better.

    He's talking about the film elements being damaged. If done correctly a good looking BD can still be produced with later generations of film elements, but still not as good if earlier film elements were intact and in good shape.

    You've made yourself very clear, but I don't think you understand this distribution deal isn't as cut and dry that you make it out to be. Joint ventures like this one involves decisions that are made jointly, not just unilaterally by one partner.

    WB is the distributor only, this is actually a Paramount release.

    George Feltenstein has confirmed that The Wild Bunch will be released with a new transfer next year.

    It's not just Mr. Feltenstein, its what many of the studio executives feel about interacting with boards. Also, we're not talking about the behavior during the actual chats which is a more controlled environment, but stuff that is posted before and after such chats. It's easier for studio...

    That was just a recent example, but there have been prior ones even more nastier than that one.

    RAINTREE COUNTY on Blu?

    Too many of us have forgotten that studio executives like George Feltenstein are human too with the same feelings like the rest of us. Just because they're professional managers, it doesn't mean that barbs posted on boards don't hurt them personally, especially if those barbs are not true. To...
