Re: Universal Catalog Titles on Blu
Any upcoming projects you want to talk about?
We have a commitment to restore 3 to 5 new prints a year. Right now, we’re working on A Touch of Evil, High Plains Drifter, Double Indemnity — and we’ll probably add another title or two at the end of the year.

Re: Universal Catalog Titles on Blu
Dang, you got me excited that they might be doing a Fox type thing and asking for what title they should restore next. I was planning on firebombing Afraid to Talk.

Re: Universal Catalog Titles on Blu
I'm sure MoC are delighted that two of the three restorations listed are titles that they've recently given the full works on Blu-ray.

I don't have to buy the big Hitchcock box now. I'm so happy.

Re: Universal Catalog Titles on Blu
I wouldn't have pegged it as forthcoming in any country, but Thursday, one of the more egregious Pulp Fiction ripoffs, is coming out in Germany?!

"In The Name Of The Father" Blu-ray comes with zero extras, not even a trailer...

Re: Universal Catalog Titles on Blu
I certainly hope so. The Warner Brothers DVD set was great in quality, but the Universal set (especially the UK set!) was incredibly weak in PQ and AQ. I'm sure Marx Brothers themselves are a big enough draw for Universal to put out in HD, but we can all hope for a Criterion licensed boxset of the Paramount via Universal movies, right?

Re: Universal Catalog Titles on Blu
Unless Universal invests the same level of money into restorations like they did the classic monster films last year I don't see it happening. The Paramount film elements are in really poor shape.

Re: Universal Catalog Titles on Blu
Question about "Schindler's List", does the US Blu come with burned in English captions, or does it have electronic subtitles for the intertitles/locations/etc?

Amazon has preorders for more of the remaining Hitchcocks in the UK:
September 23rd
Vertigo http://www.amazon.co.uk/Vertigo-Blu-ray ... sim_d_h__1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
The Man Who Knew Too Much http://www.amazon.co.uk/Knew-Much-Blu-r ... sim_d_h__8" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Rope http://www.amazon.co.uk/Rope-Blu-ray-Re ... _h__text_y" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Torn Curtain http://www.amazon.co.uk/Torn-Curtain-Bl ... rn+Curtain" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Frenzy http://www.amazon.co.uk/Frenzy-Blu-ray- ... sim_d_h__7" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Seems like the only ones from the box set not available to buy or pre-order individually in the UK now are Shadow of a Doubt, The Trouble with Harry, Marnie and Topaz.

Re: Universal Catalog Titles on Blu
Damn, that's VERY useful. Vertigo is the ONLY title in the second volume that wasn't fucked up, and that's now available separately (better the U.S. Blu-Ray, which has the mono mix), so yes, this is great for everyone.

You're right, though I think they've also greenlit a seventh.
