A CHRISTMAS STORY 16x9 coming!!!
 
I couldn't find this mentioned, so here is a quote from the Home Theater Forum chat with Warner Bros. last night:

"we have a new 16x9 20th Anniversary
CHRISTMAS STORY special edition coming in time for the holidays."


Lots of other good releases mentioned too, but this is one I have really been waiting for!

I applaud Warner for finally corrected all those P&S comedy and family titles they put out.

Other titles of interest:

Casablanca 60th Anniversary
Smallville, E.R., Dukes of Hazard and other TV shows (not mentioned)
Police Academy films "on the way"
THX-1138 next year
Tom and Jerry Uncut
16x9 X-mas and Vegas Vacation

Good to hear and now I'm glad that I've held out the several times I considered buying it before.

I wonder if the DVD case will be stamped "Fra-gee-ley". That's Italian, you know.

SO nice to hear this about a title we've been begging for for quite some time... THUMBS UP!

That's a good read; thanks for the link. It looks like my holding off of buying Casablanca is going to pay off. I can't say the same for A Christmas Story. It's an easy double dip for me though. I'm also looking forward to a 10th Anniversary Edition of The Shawshank Redemption. That's another easy double dip for me.

The current Christmas Story DVD is not Pan & Scan, it's "open matte".

That list is amazing. You know how long it's going to take me to update my release list? That's OK though.

"I want an Official Red Rider Carbine-Action 200-Shot Lightning-Loader Range-Model Air Rifle with a compass in the stock and this thing that tells time."

(compilation of ALL descriptions) ;)

boe 04-23-03 04:38 PM

I'm stoked about some of those releases.

Too bad they didn't mention "man with one red shoe" in that list.

Bacon 04-23-03 05:02 PM

I sure hope the video is being restored,I used to own the FS DVD and let me tell you it was worse looking than many VHS tapes I've seen

There is a lady on my blaock that hasa bay window and I SWEAR in that window she has a lighted goose lamp! It so reminds me of the leg lamp! Plus they keep their X-Mas lights on until March.
