Yes. Not yet.

Techman707, I also hope that we see Around the World in 80 Days in 30fps Todd-AO soon, and have the strength to see it in your large home theater. Ever since I broke my hip, I've not been able to see/hear anything in my upstairs home theater and I miss it.

For Oklahoma! I was too amazed by the picture to worry about the sound. I merely turned it up.

Mike, I hope you don't spend too much time working over your display. If the picture looks good to your eyes, then so be it. I'm watching King and I right now and like what I see.

Yes, but they don't have the live TV look of Oklahoma! at least not to my eyes.

There are some nice supplements on Todd-AO Oklahoma! including 2 Todd-AO shorts, kinescopes of Gordon McCrae and Florence Henderson singing songs, a commentary, a comparison of CinemaScope to Todd-AO and more. This is a nice package.

Okay Mr Harris...what say you?

The set showed up in the mailbox this afternoon. I've started with Oklahoma! and all I can say is Wow! The shots of horse riding through corn are astonishing. When we see Aunt Eller churning butter, it looks like she is 3D in the foreground. The picture is so clear.

Is Showscan involved?

Another day passes by with nothing delivered by the USPS. This is what I get when I cancel Prime.

I saw Sunset Blvd on Broadway and listened to the Los Angeles cast recording and Glenn Close could sing just fine. She wasn't as nuanced a singer as Petula Clark, whom I also saw, or the first national tour (which starred the hydraulic mansion) but she could definitely sing.

It just says Expected delivery today by 8:00pm. I don't have a screen grab of what the product page said after I ordered it. Still, for $80 tax included, I don't feel too bad about a one day delay.

I'll have to see if they used the word guaranteed since I canceled Prime.

Well crud, my package is at a post office halfway across the Metroplex. I won't be watching anything tonight.

No delivery yet. My carrier is something named JW_LOGISTICS which I've never heard of. Of course, I'm no longer a member of Prime.

Oh forgot we did South Pacific in high school. My try-out song was Bali Hai. I was cast as Stewpot, didn't like that, and quit.

Who has seen the stage counterpart of these films? I've seen the London revival of Oklahoma! on video (the one with Hugh Jackman) and you can see it for free on the PBS app. Saw Carousel on Broadway and on tour. Saw King and I on tour with Stacey Keach as King and a 36 piece orchestra and years...

I've never seen State Fair and it has been years since I've seen all but The Sound of Music. First thing tomorrow will be a screening of Oklahoma! In Todd AO. I wonder how my 2006 Mitsubishi DLP will handle 1080i at 30fps, whether that picture will have a live through the window look.

Looking at screen shots on an iPhone 5s. I think I'll wait for the disc to spin on my DLP big screen.

Good lord, that's $106 more expensive than the price many of us locked in.

I've let Prime lapse, although free release day shipping apparently still applies.
