So was BIG JAKE & RIO LOBO. Thank you CBS.Originally Posted by GMpasqua /t/314925/htf-exclusive-interview-with-ron-smith-vice-president-of-preservation-restoration-at-paramount-pictures#post_3853769
"Scrooge", "Little Big Man" and "My Fair Lady" are all CBS owned - but good to know Paramount is releasing titles from the CBS libarary
Robert Harris said:My Fair Lady is not a Paramount title, per se. It belongs to CBS.
RAH
Does that mean that since Viacom spun CBS off as a separate company that Preservation and Restoration at Paramount is not responsible for preparing films from the CBS library for blu ray release? I thought I read that CBS got the rights to Paramount's TV shows such as Star Trek but that Paramount was doing the blu ray prep for Star Trek The Next Generation. I assumed that it would be the same with the films. Are the CBS films more a situation like MGM and Fox, where Fox is just the distributor of MGM owned films?GMpasqua said:"Scrooge", "Little Big Man" and "My Fair Lady" are all CBS owned - but good to know Paramount is releasing titles from the CBS libarary

How's does the aliasing on Grants striped jersey look on HD, is it gone? (the first part of the film were he escapes from the police), it goes mad on SD, quite hypnotic!John Hodson said:Oh dear God, please let it be so.
I had the enormous pleasure of watching To Catch A Thief in HD a couple of times (once was not enough) recently; if any BD release replicates, or betters, the quality of the sublime transmitted version, we are in for a real treat.
