RE: Star Wars Trilogy - £25.49 @ CD-Wow

CD-Wow must have changed their shipping arrangements for items over £18 as I received the Fawlty Towers, special edition gift set today with a Swedish postmark on it.

Woody Allen movies ... which one`s would you recommend

I`ve never seen a single Woody Allen film but as Play.com are selling many of his films for around a fiver, I thought I might get 4 or 5.

Which one`s should I go for ?

RE: Police Squad(Leslie Nielsen)

No mate it`s not available on DVD. I remember seeing a documentary on the life of Leslie Neilsen on Biography and it mentioned that Police Squad was a ratings flop in the States and the show was taken off the air mid-season. Could be the reason why Paramount (?) haven`t released it yet. Pity really, `cos it deserves special-edition treatment.

RE: The Conversation, Region 2 - poor sound ?

Thanks Guys,

The Conversation, Region 2 - poor sound ?

Can anyone tell me if the wierd distortion noises at the beginning of the film, where a surveillance guy is spying on a couple and just before you see Gene Hackman`s character get into a van, is Coppola setting the mood or a faulty disc. Also, the sound quality on the featurette is really poor. Is this because of the age of the footage ?

I`ve never seen the film and bought it on the strength of its IMDb rating and my mates waxing on about it.

RE: BTTF Part III - Replacement Disc

Got mine today too.

Universal UK: (0)208 910 1500

BTTF Part III - Replacement Disc

Does anyone know when and if Universal UK will be shipping the contrast corrected third installment of the Back To The Future series ?

The Simpsons: series one picture quality

I have noticed that the backgrounds and character outlines appear kind-of wavey/wobbley on my region 1 edition of The Simpsons, complete first series. Is this a result of my player/telly converting NTSC to PAL or is it down to the age of the material ?

RE: Play sack the good ole Jiffy bag!

I think they have an automated and a manual packing system. They use cardboard jackets on the automated system and jiffy bags on the manual.

RE: BTTF III - Replacement Discs

Exactly Kevin. Will I automatically receive a replacement disc for BTTF part 3 ?

Confused ? Erm... yeah.

BTTF III - Replacement Discs

Hi,

Will I need to contact Universal UK to arrange a replacement disc for the third installment of Back to the Future trilogy or are they [Universal] sending out discs to everyone who contacted them regarding the mis-framing cock-up made on parts 2 and 3 ?

Cheers, Damian
