Movietone News, Hollywood...

03-09-09: Hey! I haven't updated in a long time mainly because I have been sooo busy. But never fear; I am back. This year will be a busy one because the Academy has decided to have 10 Best Picture nominees this year, and not five.

So what does that meen? More reviews in January, February and March. and more DVDs to buy!

I currently have almost EVERY SINGLE Best Picture nominee on DVD; in fact, I only need 82 more! Some are unavailable on DVD; I have every Best Picture (two are bootlegs). I ONLY buy the best edition of each film; sometimes there is only a crappy version available...

So yes, my collection is almsot complete! I shall put up a photo of ALL my Best Picture noms sometime.

I have Wings from 1927 on DVD. I am making my own Three-Disc set which will no doubt be better than ANYTHING Paramount puts out, if they ever do.

It's almost ready, so if you are looking for a copy of the film, talk to me! Here is what the set will have:

* An 8 page booklet

DISC 1
* Original Movie (2:18:00)
* Introduction by TCM host Robert Osbourne
* Parting Thoughts with Robert Osbourne
* 1970's re-issue Theatrical Trailer
* Awards

DISC 2
* Alternate footage
* Making of Wings: (a 30 minute documentary on the making of the film with interviews with Director William A. Wellman, rare clips and much more.)
* Petticoat Junction Episode 6.06: "Wings"
* Warplane: A History of Airplanes of WW1
* Clara Bow Newsreel Clip
* Jesse L. Lasky This is Your Life Clip
* Movie Poster Gallery

DISC 3
Biographies:

* Will Bill: Hollywood Maverick
* America's Boyfriend: Charles Buddy Rogers
* A Great Character: Richard Arlen
* Clara Bow: Hollywood's "It" Girl
* One of the Greatest: Gary Cooper

So as you can see, the WINGS DVD set is full of Bonus Features. I am not selling the set to make money, but rather to get it out. I am selling the set for $20 plus shipping. This covers the cost of the DVD case, inserts, and light-scribe discs. First class all the way with this set!

I am also working on a Cavalcade DVD set, but that will come out much latter with fewer bonus features.
