Respectively that has nothing to do with wanting a life-like video presentation. Mr Roberts' comments on gray-scale are Spot On!

Our Gang (Little Rascals) Classic Flix Blu-ray opinion

Re: THE MACK SENNETT COLLECTION Volume Two

Hi, Paul, Richard,

Hope you are well. It's been a year or so since my last pester. Covid delays in 2020 hit every sector, just wanted to check if your Sennett V2 and Arbuckle efforts will continue on.

Thanks and be well!

Re: CHARLEY CHASE AT HAL ROACH: THE TALKIES VOLUME TWO 1932-33 coming out this Tuesday

Missed this but have just ordered. Thank you for making these releases possible.

While I'm sure it will be another 5 Star Home Run effort once I view the majority of the set I'll post my Amazon "review".

Yes! Excellent

Content and quality over speed, always.
Thankfully not over film running speed, as your efforts always maintain the proper pace :)

Re: THELMA TODD/ZASU PITTS: THE HAL ROACH COLLECTION 1931-33 Coming in October

Excellent! Is the "legit" confusion over the font used on the packaging? Or the lack of a back cover image being displayed on Amazon? My guess is the later. P.S. Loved the Chase set! All the material was new to me, but having become a Todd fan over the past few years I picked it up. Sure g...
