So far the list of titles is pretty weak
Scooby-Doo and the Witche's Ghost/Alien Invaders
War of the buttons (1994)
Marie a true story
The stars fell on Henrietta
Harum Scarum (1965)
Well Ill be saving money again lol
Bigger wants for me now Side Street, Mystery Street, Invisible Stripes ( along with some more titles where the DVDs have been reported as freezing up, as even Mr. Return of Dr X froze up awhile back too.
City for Conquest, San Quentin, Kid Galahad ( 1937) would also be welcome. :)
I just finished rewatching Our Dancing Daughters, what a great film, I finally ordered the Blu-ray. I liked it way better than the first viewing
I also just watched Desire Me, I am on the fence on this one. It is only available on DVD. The last 15 minutes were great with Robert Mitchum, but the...
I have to thank Crawdaddy for his recommendation of Why be Good? that was a blast. I might need to get that Blu-ray with The Boob at some point. Colleen Moore was amazing. Her hairstyle was exactly like Louise Brooks !
Well The Man I Love and Act Violence made it to the finish line ! Ill be getting those for sure. But now I need Mystery Street to retire the DVD. Maybe they can do a Streets Collection Blu-ray with Side Street and Mystery Street :D
Im actually going to watch Side Street now to make sure it's still working :) It looks GREAT and played all the way through ! This movie probably wouldn't take much time to restore as it does look excellent on DVD...
Macao is available via WAC a DVDr in case the movie isnt in the Blu-ray cards. I replaced a bunch for DVDr and they all play fine. Official DVDr movies from a studio like Warner I don't really mind because at least the image quality is still excellent and they dont freeze up. :)
Whenever Act of Violence is released I would want Mystery Street too so I can retire the DVD as they were paired together. Pretty much why I am not into double features these days. I still have the DVD of Side Street which was part of a Farley Granger double feature with They Live by Night. Hey...
Let's hope this is the week ! Possible titles could be The Man I Love ( rumored from the Podcast with George), The Narrow Margin ( highly requested) A Woman's Face ( I believe I read about it having a new HD master). Anyway I am keeping the expectations low and maybe some of us will be in for a...
I wonder if this will be the week we get May announcements or maybe it will be next week. This could be a big day for those who like classics! If George reads this threads, I would like to suggest a Blu-ray of Executive Suite as the DVD has stopped playing for several members as reported in the...
There was a podcast recently from George ( this is another copy & paste)
"George confirms that WAC will announce a whole new slate of classics (that will really excite people per George) at the end of May in addition to the delayed films"
Take that for what its worth :)
I did copy and paste the movies, these were all pushed back to May 14th.
THE NUN'S STORY (1959), FRIENDLY PERSUASION (1956), and YOU'RE A BIG BOY NOW (1966) due to production delays.
Devils' Doorway is a "replacement" for the three movies being pushed back.
I suspect May's titles are still...
Dr. Lao is another big one for me. Im still excited about Fu Manchu as that was the number 1 movie on my WAC/WHV wish list. The Last Dinosaur, the remaining Val Lewton movies, It! , In This Our Life, Sadie McKee, The First Deadly Sin, All Through the Night , Mr. Skeffington, The Narrow Margin...
There's plenty of MGM titles in my WAC collection so maybe I will still get lucky with the announcements. I think Mask of Fu Manchu is MGM, Dancing Lady is MGM among others, so we'll see. I have no real expectations these days which prevents the monthly let down :)
Hoping we get April's slate this week ( if not, no biggie) !
I will also keep my fingers crossed for at least one Bette Davis and one Joan Crawford movie that replaces my DVDs, The Face of Fu Manchu, and The Narrow Margin. Reality - probably a couple of titles I have never heard of and a couple...
Im hoping for Across to Singapore and West Point for silents from WAC.
Wasn't the 1929 version of The Letter also mentioned on a podcast in 2022 ? That's a great pre-code film I have been waiting for an announcement of :)
I highlighted my wants in orange. I picked up House on Haunted Hill from some other company who did a Kickstarter and is a great release. Tormented Ill also get from Film Masters
