Re: Return to Oz and Swiss Family DMC Blu-ray exclusives!!!!

So a friend of mine who's in the club ordered this for me and I received it last week. I can definitely say the image looks more stable than the DVD. It seems like there was a fresh new HD scan of the negative with some cleanup attempted, as I recall Disney's DVD having plenty of dirt and specks and...

Re: Return to Oz and Swiss Family DMC Blu-ray exclusives!!!!

Great. Can't join the DMC (for reasons I won't get into here) and they pull this on one of my most-wanted titles? :down: And I don't think any of the DMC Blu-Ray exclusives have gotten wide releases yet, have they?

Re: The Legacy Collection

I really admire how Turner released its classic MGM and other studios soundtracks on CD. Gone with the Wind, The Wizard of Oz, the Rooney/Garland box set, Singin' in the Rain, Astaire & Rogers films, and many others were true collectors' items. More like "are" true collector's items -...

Re: The Legacy Collection

Just some random thoughts. I'm a wee bit behind on these - I still need to pick up Mary Poppins, The Lion King, and Fantasia - but considering that the first disc of this is just the same soundtrack we've had for years without vocals on Little Wooden Head, and I'm not really thrilled about the secon...

Re: Buying CDs / DVDs from Thrift Stores

I quite enjoy thrift shopping for media, but I don't get to do it as often as I'd like. But when I do get to do it, I quite enjoy it. You definitely have to check the discs first, and if a disc looks rough, wipe it off first - dirt and scratches can look very similar. (And even if you get a CD that'...

Re: Mary Poppins: 50th Anniversary Blu-Ray - Official Discus

Has anyone figured out if there's a way to navigate to "A Musical Journey with Richard Sherman" on the Blu-Ray disc in a standard Blu-Ray player? Or is it only accessible in a BD-ROM on a computer?

Re: The King and I (1956 film)

According to the documentary on the 2-Disc DVD, Rita wasn't happy about hoe Betty chose to sing the song after the fact, because when Rita recorded and acted out the song for the camera, she would hiss and growl many of the words and sounds out, like the angry woman Anita was, but that Betty's vocal...

Re: The King and I (1956 film)

Rita did America, Betty did A Boy Like That because, funny enough, Rita couldn't get her voice to go low enough at the start, and I think Marni dubbed for both Natalie and Rita in Quartet or whatever it's called. (I forget at the moment.) In The King And I, I think it was Leona Gordon, since she's t...

Re: The King and I (1956 film)

But yet the most infuriating things about it is that some people confuse this beautiful movie with the ATROCIOUS, GOD-AWFUL, BLASPHEMOUS, and not to mention REVOLTING animated version from 1999. :angry: Oh god that animated movie was so bad to the point where I couldn't be able to watch the origina...

Re: How Cinderella's 2005 Release was Restored Very Wrongly

I'm not sure anymore. I found it a long long time ago on a file sharing messageboard. Doing a search for torrents is turning up bupkiss. :( It's a great project too. Chapter stops, menu, 256 KBPS DD 2.0 audio, deinterlaced and progressive 23.976 fps, anamorphic.

Re:

Ok... so I had a little surprise this Xmas. Some of you might recall I found a torrent of the UNRESTORED Cinderella, which had been sourced from the LASERDISC. It downloaded 25%, and then it stopped. On Xmas day, it started downloading today, and finished yesterday. I burnt it onto a DVD today, and...

I called Disney to see if they could cancel my order and refund my points, but they'd already shipped it.

I'm talking about the Disney Movie Rewards coupon, not the Best Buy gift certificate, which, as you said, thankfully doesn't need to be printed to be used. But I think I've figured out how to get the DMR coupon. I dunno why DMR hasn't developed a smartphone app yet - the coupon could be stored in th...
