Common sense would say that WB should throw out any pre-made CD-Rs of SHOW OF SHOWS that they have laying around and manufacture fresh ones that do not have the truncation problem. After all, they are CD-Rs that didn't exactly cost a lot to produce, and they would save the extra shipping costs...

I noticed in the "fine print" that the 5 for $55 sale only goes through December 19. I guess we'd better hurry. Wow - this is a short-lived sale. I would never have heard about it if I hadn't been following the Archive threads on this website. I'm on their email list and haven't received any...

I watched I LOVE MELVIN last night. No problems, per se, though as others have said, the color, while OK, could have been restored to greater vividness had it been subjected to restoration. I have had one order is process even as others placed later have shipped. The slow order contains...

I signed up for "Insider Rewards" and placed two orders a couple of days prior to the sale (I know --- great timing.) The other day I received the first of those orders without getting any email notice that the order had shipped. The order's invoice included a packing slip in the same format...

DeepDiscount is having a storewide sale until Nov 29; the Archive titles are brought down to $17.99 and I think their international shipping may be a bit more reasonable.

Much as I enjoy Ms. Williams movies - a third set would seem to be scraping the bottom of the pool, so to speak.

I've bought a lot of these Archive titles, usually using coupons. I've bought a few of the bundles. What it comes down to, for me, is how much do I desire a particular title? I'm assuming that few, if any, of these Archive releases will ever appear on a pressed DVD. So first and foremost...

They are still there. But you have to know how to find them on this mysterious site! When you go to the WB Shop home page - instead of clicking in the red Warner Archive icon - go just above it and click where it says "Warner Exclusives" and then Warner Archive, and you arrive at a list of...

I just checked for the Randolph Scott value pack - I couldn't find it. I suppose it has retreated to a hidden cyber-chamber, along with the Our Gang and Dogville Shorts titles. And so it goes. I have used earlier coupons to buy my Joan Crawford, Lana Turner, and Ida Lupino titles. But I have...

Past experience tells us that, while they may not be easy to find on that crazy website, those items have not really disappeared. As to your order - did you happen to note down an order number? After a day or two you should be able to log into your account and click on your order history to...

Perhaps you would share the coupon code with the rest of us?

I just scoured the pre-order area and found the following new titles listed. For how long - who knows? Berlin Express (EST-MOD) City Beneath the Sea (EST-MOD) Dogville Shorts (EST-MOD) Earth II (EST-MOD) Genesis II (1973)(EST-MOD) Highway 301 (EST-MOD)...

I just noticed that BAD RONALD and THE FOX have been added to the pre-order titles.

I just finished comparing what is currently listed at the Archive site versus a list I made about a month ago. The following 22 titles no longer appear: Above and Beyond All The Brothers Were Valiant Bye Bye Braverman Castle on the Hudson Fallen Sparrow, The...

Yesterday Don't Be Afraid of the Dark was listed among the New Releases and also among All Releases. Today it has been moved to the Pre-order section. But the twelve new titles listed as Pre-orders yesterday have disappeared today! To say nothing of the titles that have mysteriously...

You make an interesting observation. I have not ordered any of the new Jolson or Taylor titles because I assume they will be bundled. I also assume I am not alone in thinking this way, so the absence of the bundles would seem to retard sales of those new items. The 150 titles they have on...

I already used the XB792 code when it first became available a few weeks ago - so I assumed it would not work again for me. Plus, I thought it expired at the end of June. Can you use it over and over? (I've also noticed that when a coupon code is applied to an order the maximum number of...

It's almost more interesting to see what is not among the 150 sale titles. Some of the initial titles are missing, e.g., all but one of the Randolph Scott items, as are the Barker Tarzan titles, nor are the musicals that have been bundled. Not surprisingly, all the newest stuff is not on sale...

THE UNFAITHFUL with Ann Sheridan is now listed under new releases. Edited by greylocke5 - 7/14/2009 at 06:39 pm GMT

Those who have been monitoring the Warner Archive thus far - like me, for instance - have seen the bundles appear a few days or weeks after the bundled titles initially appear. I missed out on the bundled price of some of the Marie Dressler titles and I don't want that to happen again if I can...

Just a short while ago there were 13 new titles, including another Elizabeth Taylor film, Rhapsody, as well as The Story of Three Loves. However, Cynthia wasn't listed among the newest items. Now Cynthia is there, but Rhapsody has disappeared, as has The Story of Three Loves. And I noted that...

I ordered the Western bundle yesterday (6-30) with no problem, but I see what you say is true. Who knows why it has disappeared. I also just noticed that a new title has been added: Al Jolson in MAMMY (1930)

Try again after a day or two. I have found that orders don't go through - or coupons do not work right - when I include newly posted titles or bundles in my order. But after waiting a day or two things went through as expected. (I chalk this up to just one more of the charming quirks of the...

I note that the "Westerns of the 50's" bundle does not include any Randolph Scott titles. That makes me surmise that there will be a Scott bundle down the road. I think these bundles are a fine idea. But I prefer that they announce them at the same time they announce the individual titles...

Just in case some of you may not have noticed: WBShop indicates that new Warner Archives titles will be posted on the first and third Tuesday of each month. So that would be the 7th and 21st of July.

When I found out that Amazon.com is listing ten Warner Brothers classic titles (e.g., The Strawberry Blonde; The Male Animal, etc.)as "Amazon exclusives" for $28.85 I added them to my Amazon wishlist. They appear to be packaged and produced like the Archive titles, except that the label does...

Believe me, Eclipse would charge more for their DVDs if they thought their customer base would bear it. Criterion is a much smaller company than Warners and probably has more modest expectations regarding what they need to clear on an Eclipse DVD. The retail price of the DVD is based, not only...

Thanks for the "reality check."

I have previously ordered online from WBShop six times, with no problems. But I had the same experience as you last night when I tried to order the new Gary Cooper and Powell/Keeler bundles. I kept getting that error message that encouraged me to retry - and so I did - several times. Even...

I think you have caught on to what is really happening behind the scenes. I can't remember where I read it, so take this with a grain of salt if you will, but I recall reading an article recently that indicated that executives in the entertainment industry want to get rid of pressed media...
