I still don't like the price tag of individual discs. Too high unless there will be discount codes.
Ditto. I am not opposed to the whole idea of the Archive-style programs at all. Particularly as it will mean getting copies of somewhat obscure movies and minor classics. I am somewhat enthused about Universal's apparent intent to remaster the films. However, I have not been pleased with the price per disc. As i have said before, I cannot see paying more for a DVD-R than a Blu-ray.Originally Posted by MattH.

Yeah. Taking a quick look at eBay, the prices seem reasonable on it too.Originally Posted by DeWilson
Did THE AFRICAN QUEEN ever come out on laserdisc?
I hear you and feel your pain and look forward to see what comes of this. Perhaps, and I mean perhaps, Fox will look at this and do something through Fox Movie Channel.Originally Posted by FrankXS
Could we now at last get the Alan Ladd/Veronica Lake film noirs ? The Uninvited ? More Mitchell Leisen ? The rest of the Marlene Dietrich titles ? More Claudette Colbert....Deanna Durbin.....Barbara Stanwyck..... Carole Lombard ??? The rest of W.C. Fields/Bing Crosby and Bob Hope ?????? Thank you TCM and Universal. Now if only something can happen with Fox and all the great remaining titles that are in limbo there.

Are you sure it isn't a player issue? It seems curious that completely different discs would all freeze at the same spot.Originally Posted by jack phillips
