That is news! Where is the BD?

Also! on the 23rd, they are showing the restored 1953 INVADERS FROM MARS…that’s news!!!

 

[Matt Hough]

Would love to have Blu-ray releases of both films! Please!

 

[Dick]

Mr. Furmanek: is there now any new hope for I, THE JURY 3D on Blu-ray?

As for INVADERS FROM MARS, wouldn't this announcement suggest that, at least, a proper element is available from which to produce Blu-ray's? Mr. Williams?

I've been all about this for decades!! They mention a new restoration, but not by who? Thrilled but still filled with questions...I would be the first in line to see it in the theaters, I was not able to see it in 1953, since I wasn't born until mid 54, LOL!!! Anyone know which company oversaw the restoration?

I bet it’s all BS about IFM and ITJ in 3D.

At Scott MacQueen’s linkedin page, he says that Invaders From Mars is the camera negative and restored in 4K

TCM is advertising I The Jury as being presented in digital 3D. Don’t know why you would doubt that. Nobody said anything about Invaders from Mars being 3D, and why would it? It was shot in 2D and nobody is doing conversions anymore.

Come on, I know that. I just put both titles together, that's all.

 

[RolandL]

In 3D and hopefully 3-channel stereo sound!

 

[RolandL]

May Hong Haduong and Eddie Muller will be guest speakers. Cool!

 

[RolandL]

I wonder if anyone knows someone that saw this last night. Would be nice to know how it looked.

 

[aPhil]

It occurs to me to add, I have seen the film twice in dual-strip 35-millimeter 3-D. It looked terrific both times, and I can't say I remember seeing the issues my friends caught during Friday night's screening.

As to the April 22nd screening:

Was this a digital presentation? Was this some kind of restoration for future screenings?

Yes, see the bottom below "87m, Digital, 3D":

QC'ing the 3D-restorations shortfalls Mike references would be nice. In any case, a 3D blu ray is a MUST. If we don't get one... that would be tragic.

I hope we get it released on Blu-ray also, and hopefully restored by The 3D Film Archive but Bob Furmanek did say a year ago:

"Other titles (The Glass Web, Nat King Cole with Russ Morgan's Orchestra, Hawaiian Nights, I the Jury, La Marca del Hombre Lobo aka Frankenstein's Bloody Terror) are tied up with complex legal issues and the miles of red tape have prevented any positive movement. After trying to obtain rights for the past decade, I have no reason to be optimistic these films will ever get cleared for 3-D Blu-ray release. I wish I could say otherwise."

Maybe things have changed since that time but I doubt it. I hope I'm wrong.

 

[Kent K H]

I am very interested in this. I'd definitely get a copy and shlep it over to my buddy who has a 3-D TV the next time I went to visit.

I think now is a very good time to chime in to confirm that we have licensed I, THE JURY (1953) for home video and will be releasing it later this year. It will be our first 4K release and our first 3-D release.

I, THE JURY (1953) has been restored by UCLA Film & Television Archive, in conjunction with PKL Pictures, LTD and Romulus Films, Limited.

Nothing more on the release at this time, but details to follow in the coming months.

In regards to the 3-D presentation, the stereoscopic alignment/restoration will be will be performed by the 3-D Film Archive and will be exclusive to our release.
