Twilight Time Chato's Land question

Andy Do you know if the TT Chato's Land is the cut (the PG was always a surprise for those outside North America) version or the original Winner cut that was put out some years ago in Germany on MGM dvd? I know as I worked on the Uk version was rated X or 18 as it would be now & was the same ver...

Re: Heads-Up: Warner/Morgan Creek Blu-Rays Now Out of Print

Re: "Why MAD MAX is a Major OSCAR Contender" - Variety

Maybe this is just a case of award ceremonies trying to grab the popular audience? So nominate a bunch of films that have been popular and cast members who also carry weight in the public eye, at least for a week or so! and that makes the awards themselves become relevant? Year after year the major ...

Re: Bond 24 - SPECTRE

On top of all this, if anyone has ever worked on a Bond (I did 2 Moore's & the 2 Dalton's), even being associated with them, there is almost a constant hassle from the fan base. Some where out there is an autograph book with totally worthless scrawl of my name as I was walking out of the Odeon L...

Re: FIREPOWER (1979) Now on Blu-Ray

Here some information on Firepower from my time working on it. The film was produced by ITC which was Lew Grade’s theatrical film production, a company that has as many ups as downs in the film industry, so kind of typical of anyone who gets involved with film production. It came to us as the end of...

Question about Opp all region machines

Hi all I know there are some Oppo all region "owners" here. So I am looking to up grade to this machine, which has some great reviews & much praise, but I do have 1 question. Does a firm ware up date remove the "all region" ability. Seen some conflicting answers on the web &a...

Re: Good news for physical media?

You may be right Andy, but when the local HMV have given more & more shelf space over to pictures, magazines, books, money boxes (Creature, Spider-Man & Batman etc) & cookie jars, I think the signs of actual physical discs is beginning to slow. Added to which our Walmarts have all reduce...
