    I'll be less disappointed if Warner will announce a replacement for the missing moth in their "Ghost Ship" original Blu-ray release.

    I'm looking forward to a first time look at Rancho Notorious — I see that even Superman is in the Fritz Lang movie!

    I'm glad to hear this about the 1943 Phantom of the Opera. I had no interest in "upgrading" to the 4K release until reading (on this site) that Universal did a "recombine" rather than use a good single-strip interpositive (IP). It's not a great film, but it really shines on the Blu-ray, and I...

    I may be one of only 50 people to care, but I am happy to hear that the missing moth shot (in Ghost Ship) is going to be available ! I love the movie.

    I'm just the opposite. I've been with Netflix since the days they were sending DVD's and Blu-rays to my house. This month I dropped the service. Not much there for me. I don't fit their algorithm. Lots of other things to explore. 200 milllion dollar movies like The Gray Man. Ugh? Maybe someday...

    Even though physical media is a tiny fraction of what it use to be, it still holds influence and helps promote a film. The restoration of a film that first appears on physical media (or later appears on physical media) is a restoration that can be used for all the media outlets for that film. If...

    Weissmuller did 6 MGM Also 6 released by RKO so add the 5 Lex Barker ones and that is 17 films I'm surprised that Warner did not release Gordon Scott's "Tarzan the Magnificent" on Blu after releasing the previous film "Tarzan's Greatest Adventure" to the format.

    The announcement for “A Tale of Two Cities” has the 1935 “Audioscopics” as an extra featurette -- Will is be in 3D with the 2-Color Technicolor ? Anaglyph (and, hopefully, optional polarized/active-vision) ?

    Finally, The Curse of Frankenstein restored. We’re getting a 2-disc set, so, with the 1.85, please no one complain that there is also a 1.37 -- It’s 2-discs, so I think that is fine. I’ll happily take both aspect ratios. What? Also 1.66 -- A third aspect ratio. Fantastic!!! And with a great...

    Hoping for a lot better work on The Curse of Frankenstein than we got with Horror of Dracula. Watched a 1958 IB Technicolor 35mm print of Horror of Dracula early this week (coupled with a duplicate reel or two of the 1964 IB Technicolor re-release for comparison) -- Warner and the BFI needs to...

    Physical Media accounted for 17% of Home Entertainment sales in 2018. Even if drops to 10%, that is a big chunk of change. When the day (soon or sometime or who knows) comes that we can purchase high resolution files that equal or surpass Blu-ray and UHD and one can store on backup hard drives...
