Current Talk '03 II / Re:Announcement about restoration/DVD release of the DS movies.
« on: August 01, 2003, 06:01:07 PM »
This is really unfortunate news...I had a feeling Time Warner would be like this which is why I bought 2 copies of each VHS tape from Amazon and taped them from tv as well... seems the only DVD's of these movies I might ever own will be if I get a DVD recorder... I applaud the efforts of Darren and all those who tried to get the restoration done...

I guess I am just impatient...The thought of not having the entire run for 3 or 4 years bothers me...I feel the same way about shows like the X Files...Paramount with their Star Trek Next Gen and DS9 releases has been great-42-49 discs of a show's entire run in 10 months..that's how it should be done

Are the releases being sped up to monthly? It is a pain waiting 2 full months between releases...Here's hoping...

I think I may be the one who started a thread about this way back...When I got the disc I was worried that the glitch was on just my disc...upon finding that it is in the master, I was satisfied.  Honestly, I think, overall, MPI does a great job with the Dark Shadows tapes and DVD's...if only they would consider putting out the Revival series sooner than later.  To me any of the glitches are brief and minor and don't take away from the show's impact.

Our first look at the Bobbleheads
I have heard Dan Curtis will shoot a new DS pilot featuring Bobblehead versions of the characters...maybe that's only a rumor though

Just to add to the set 5 story...Mpi did say they were willing to replace just the defective disc so that was very cool of them....

I wish I knew before I sent it back..Thanks for posting ...I'll know enough to keep the replacement when it comes... Thats the oddest glitch I have ever seen that happened in mastering...eevry other disc like that with pixellation-even very brief- has been a defective...

The general release date is 4/29th but MPI makes them available online about 3 weeks early...I have a feeling it is just my disc and it is a glitch of only about 2 or 3 seconds...

Is there anyone else who has this set from MPI yet? I notice a brief pixellation and sound distortion on the last ep of disc 2 before the opening credits when Naomi and Joshua are talking.  I am unsure whether this is a mastering flaw or a defective disc...the VHS tape does not appear to have this...

I have the first 5 DVD sets and the running times so far are the same as the VHS tapes.  Each ep is about 21-22 minutes long including closing credits...its always been that way...

Given the age of the source material, I think MPI has done a great job w/ the DVD's.  The truth is there are not a lot extras that could be included but they look great compared to the tapes... for half as much money.   I am not sure chapter breaks are needed when the shows are only 21 minutes each...
