Sorry, Mister Epstein but I read so much useless information's in this topic (Warner Archive Announcements Thread) that I missed this ad.

Just listened to George Feltenstein on Dick Dinsman's podcast. They were talking about Criterion's release of Warner's Arsenic and Old Lace and Paramount's 1931 Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde.. George still says the new ownership is backing a resurgence of titles in 2023.

Please let that include some unreleased television and HB product.

Great list. As RobertMG implied, Zenda 1937 is unfortunately held up by elements issues (as is Raintree County as most of us know), though I would definitely pounce for that one when the Archive eventually gets around to it. I read The Brothers Karamazov last year (stupendous read by the way) so I’m particularly eager to see the film version. Also, there is the possibility that Captain Blood may be coming from Criterion. I would add Land of the Pharaohs to the list as well.

 

[dana martin]

well every one has a favorite that they are always pulling for, but mine isn't so much a film but a person, last time WA released a Garbo blu was 2015, lot of water has gone under that bridge since then, so I am hoping that this year is a good one.

Also see that Lassie is on that list as well, guess it needed a little more, as I could have seen this getting a release all the way back in 2021 alongside another animal film staring a violet eyed star.


only time will tell.......

Captain Blood from Criterion? I would think WB woud keep that and give Gunga Din to Criterion - LOC holds the WB nitrates does anyone know if the neg exists at all Wish LOC had a online accounting of the negs!

SO they have OCN from Gunga Din so where is a blu?

 

[Capt D McMars]

Also "At Swords Point" with Mauren OHara and Cornel Wilde 1952 and "Forever Amber" 1947 Linda Darnell, Cornel Wilde & Richard Greene. Twilight Times version was better but not the best. As well as Scaramouche 1952 and the same year Prisoner of Zenda'

Amber is with Fox and they trashed the negs in the 70's wonder if a real technicolor prints exists with FOX At Swords Point is RKO so maybe WB would do it

What I wouldn't give for "Gunga Din".

 

[skylark68]

Would love Destination Tokyo, Air Force, and Command Decision. Air Force and Command Decision are 2007 DVD releases and both of them failed on me. I'm wary of buying them again and having the same issues so a new blu-ray release would be most welcome.
