Sorry, but I didn't have any major quality problems with those titles.

Secondly, they don't release Director's Cuts or NC-17 films to DVD.IMO, Paramount should change this rule. IMO, I believe that movie should be on DVD in their uncut format. That main reason why I don't own the Friday the 13TH movies are becuase the DVD's don't contain the uncut versions.
You have a problem. You either have the problems everyone claims you do, or you have the problem that people PERCEIVE that you have these problems, because they believe their own eyes. Either way, whichever is the problem, this is your problem to solve. Fix it.Reading this thread, people obviously perceive that Paramount has an issue, or issues. Perhaps that had something to do with the change of leadership; I wouldn't know. But I hope our friend Martin has security where he's at, and is able to continue to do the best job possible with the resources and direction given.
Perhaps the new El Presidente' will allow people to perceive that this studio continues to have great transfers with OAR availability, and will have enough resources to put out more films and TV shows on DVD, in their original edits AND - in some cases where appropriate - in the director's intended original vision. These DVDs should be available with competitive pricing and supplements. If necessary, old releases that did not meet this criteria might be revisited.
It sounds like that's what everyone wants.
It would be great to get some of the Paramount musical films, hopefully now that "Chicago" is a hit the studio will release them.Off subject, but Chicago has a long way to go before it can be called a hit. It cost $40 million to make, not including marketing, and has made only about $17 million to date. It's still not in that many theaters but is unlikely to go much wider unless it gets a huge boost from the Oscar noms or does particularly well overseas.
I have NEVER paid $25.00 for a single disc DVD in the 3+ years I have been buying.You must not own any Criterion Collection DVD's!
You must not own any Criterion Collection DVD's!Actually, I do; but they are 2-disc sets, not a one-discer.
