I guess someone at MGM really doesn't like John Wayne.

Well, he said that "funds" were never an issue. The thing to keep in mind is that there is a difference between having the money to spend and having the desire to spend it. I don't have the foggiest notion why MGM has never wanted to spend the money to restore The Alamo, but the most likely...

I'm guessing that international buyers will be able to order it from Amazon DE starting on May 13th, if not May 12th. For the past year or so, Europe-based Amazons have not accepted pre-orders for international shipping, but allowed them once the title was actually released. I'll be curious to...
