    I very much want Lucky Me because my DVD has gone bad. (Same with Macao)

    There's a brief moment when Eddie Cantor is doing a "blackface" routine. Some people will find that offensive.

    I'll definitely buy that disc but, for me, it's an Ann Sheridan movie! I'll also buy 3 Godfathers as will several other members of this forum.

    The films I want which have never been released in any format tend to be those with rights problems; e.g. The Bramble Bush, The Dark At The Top Of The Stairs, The Flame And The Flesh plus Ice Palace which very briefly appeared on a Warner Archive DVD-R. There's another missing Lana Turner...

    I'm waiting for Meet Me In Las Vegas which is available only on a MOD DVD.

    Is it certain that there will be another MovieZyng sale? Is it a regular thing like Kino sales? I've recently placed an order with MovieZyng for three Warner Archive discs because I'm not willing to wait for something that might not happen. I hope I haven't made a mistake!

    Thank you for that link. It's made me change my mind about buying the Blu-ray disc of Christopher Strong.

    Yeah, I'd like to have that one in my collection. A powerful cast plus music from Henry Mancini. Philip Lathrop certainly made Jacqueline Bisset look elegant.

    That's how I feel about buying old Warner DVDs.

    That is exactly the argument I've used for releasing Raintree County on DVD-R.

    That was the point of MOD DVDs where standard definition would not over emphasize the flaws in the elements. Even there however, some of the discs have such awful picture quality that a high quality Blu-ray disc seems extremely unlikely. I don't recall the Warner Archive Blu-ray project ever...

    Can you give us some specific titles?

    I'm very, very pleased about Saratoga which I've seen only once and that was decades ago at a small cinema club. I enjoyed the film enormously and have always wanted to add it to my collection. As I'm not a fan of Jean Harlow, I didn't want to buy a DVD box-set of her movies for that one title.

    I couldn't agree more! I saw The Miracle when it first came out and I'd love to have that on a Blu-ray disc fully up to Warner Archive's exemplary standards. I hope someone asks Mr. Feltenstein about this movie.

    Exactly! Not so long ago, some people were complaining that no films from the 1930s were being given a Blu-ray release.

    I'm buying all six! Well done, Warners . . . . and thank you.

    I also saw this film when it was first released and I too would love to have it on a Warner Archive Blu-ray disc. If my memory of the film is reliable, The Miracle is made for high definition!

    There's nothing wrong with the Blu-ray disc. I doubt a 4K disc from a new scan would bring a big improvement.

    . . . . plus that beautiful melody written for Friendly Persuasion which provided a huge hit for Pat Boone.

    I can't speak about The Cisco Kid but I have the other five titles, and I can assure you that you've chosen well: five really good discs.

    That is good news for me because I have so far delayed ordering those two discs.

    I watched the DVD last night and the ratio is 1:1.75. The disc sleeve says: WIDESCREEN VERSION PRESENTED IN A "MATTED" WIDESCREEN FORMAT PRESERVING THE ASPECT RATIO OF ITS ORIGINAL THEATRICAL EXHIBITION. ENHANCED FOR WIDESCREEN TVS. The picture quality is very much that of a DVD transfer. I...

    Parrish was one of four films in a Troy Donahue box-set released in the hey-day of DVD. I'll check that DVD tonight and report back tomorrow.

    Yes, I'd love to have that film on a Warner Archive Blu-ray disc too, but to go further and declare that John Wayne, Henry Fonda and James Cagney are locked away is absurd. I have several Warner Archive Blu-ray discs with each of these stars.
