I was reading on IMDB that DVD sales are down by almost 1 billion dollars this year. Is there any wonder why, look at the releases in other regions, the back catalogue seems to been expanded to a tremendous number of titles & mostly in what buyers want, letter boxed or wide screen expanded editi...

Andy Peeper is a very enjoyable movie, I found it quite funny actually & if I recal it has the credits spoken! Dead Fall is a mess, quite confusing in places & to be honest the best thing about the film is the John Barry score!, I'd buy it just to hear it in relation to the film, but as a mo...

The Alamo John Wayne version

Can anyone advise me which copy of The Alamo is closest or the same as the old laser disc box set, which was 'extended' or some kind of road show print with extra sequences in.

any help much appreciated.

I would of thought with the libary being partly in Warners & some kept by MGM & some being reverted back to the orginal companies for renegotiation & of course the more profitable being stuck with MGM/Sony I really can't see the 100 movies being anything ground breaking. Maybe some of th...

Yes but then just think, it's a 2oth Century Fox release, so it's bound to have a re-issue after re-issue. How many times has the Die Hard/Alien/Star Wars series been reissued, with added this, but missing that. I also take into account video tape & laser discs, I know on Star Wars alone I had 3...
