Thoroughly modern millie dvd was 2.0 mono. I think the film was 3.0 with no surrounds.

I have the DVD and it says on the back cover: Dolby Surround. So that means stereo surround I guess? I can assure you that it is not mono!

Orangey strikes again! Cast again type as a heavy. But hey, the role was too good to pass up...

Im posting this post from the insider on technical aspects of the new releases posted on the other forum. It has nothing to do with our warm fuzzy feelings of the new announcments but it is very informative on the film transfers of these releases. It can be moved if neccessary.

"None of the upcoming Vincent Price releases are new transfers, in most cases they're the same masters Shout Factory used for their boxed sets. In one or two instances, MGM may've done some additional cleanup to those same masters. Every release includes at least 1 new extra.

We're looking into THE COMEDY OF TERRORS issue some people mentioned a few pages ago and we'll fix it if we can.

Whenever we do brand new transfers, 2K or 4K, we mention it, so when there's no mention, please don't waste your and my time by asking a question you got an obvious answer to.

In some cases (see below), we received Best Lite masters from 4K scans by Universal, we did not make any mention of a Brand New Master, since they were not fully restored and needed additional DRS/Color Correction by us.

Arise, My Love - 2017 HD best lite (4K scan)
Four Frightened People - 2018 HD Best lite (4K scan)
Peter Ibbetson - 2019 HD Best lite (4K scan)"

Oops Meant to say Millie was 2.0 stereo.

I've never seen Fast Charlie but i like David Carradine from this period. Will probably pick this one up and give it a shot.

Overture, Intermission and Exit

No entr'acte ... just like Sweet Charity

Fast Charlie was on YouTube a few years back. I tried to watch it but it was an awful copy. On the plus side it has both R.Q.Jones and R.G. Armstrong in it.

what was the Comedy of Terrors issue?

I dont own the previous release and never seen it but it was concerning some "weird jump cut that's on the Vincent Price Collection II" whatever that means.

No entr'acte ... just like Sweet Charity

There's nothing here to suggest that's the case. It includes the intermission. The entr'acte will play during the intermission.

There is nothing here to suggest that's the case; it includes an intermission. The entr'acte will play over the intermission card, as it did on the DVD and LD.

There is something to "suggest" that it is the case. No mention was made by Mr. Insider of an entr'acte. You may indeed be right but an intermission and entr'acte aren't the same thing.

Have they announced a date for MAN ON THE MOON?

I wonder if they could land an interview with Andy's Girlfriend, or his best friend, Bob Zmuda. I'd love to see an interview with Jim Carrey...

I wonder if KINO could add the Music Video to the Song MAN ON THE MOON by REM... I hope all the bonus stuff from the DVD will be ported over.
