Among Imprint's first releases will be a brand new 4K restoration of Byron Haskin's classic film The War of the Worlds as well as the war drama Waterloo and Ridley Scott's period thriller The Duelists. In Australia and New Zealand, Imprint's releases will be distributed by local partners Madman Entertainment. https://www.blu-ray.com/news/?id=26477    Posted:   Feb 26, 2020 - 11:50 AM     By:   Rameau   (Member) [IMG]https://viavision.com.au/wp-content/uploads/Imprint-Website-Banner-Full-Page.jpg[/IMG] I can get the picture up for some reason, but this is a welcome new Blu-ray boutique label. The internet is getting quite excited about a War Of The Worlds Blu-ray release (not to mention Sorry, Wrong Number & I Married A Monster From Outer Space), but the image is wrong about Waterloo, saying it's the first Blu-ray release, it was released in Germany last year. Anyway, the Paramount catalogue seems to be opening up, good news.    Posted:   Mar 10, 2020 - 5:11 PM     By:   johnjohnson   (Member) Speaking of a Paramount title, we’ve confirmed with our friends at Via Vision Entertainment that their forthcoming line-up of Impact Films limited edition Blu-ray titles will NOT be region locked. That means War of the Worlds (1953), The Duellists (1977), Waterloo (1970), Sorry, Wrong Number (1948), and I Married a Monster from Outer Space (1958). https://thedigitalbits.com/columns/my-two-cents/031020-1500    Posted:   May 22, 2020 - 5:47 AM     By:   Rameau   (Member) The latest lot for release on August 26th: When Worlds Collide 1951 A Place In The Sun 1951 The Carpetbaggers 1964 No Way To Treat A Lady 1968 Night Falls On Manhattan 1996.

Interesting news. I wonder if any USA company will be inspired to release some of these, although not really necessary unless they would add significant bonus features. The previous bundle of titles were region-free and offered on Deepdiscount, etc.    Posted:   May 22, 2020 - 11:25 AM     By:   TacktheCobbler   (Member) The latest lot for release on August 26th: When Worlds Collide 1951 A Place In The Sun 1951 The Carpetbaggers 1964 No Way To Treat A Lady 1968 Night Falls On Manhattan 1996.

I could definitely see them going after A Place in the Sun.    Posted:   May 22, 2020 - 12:15 PM     By:   Last Child   (Member) Since they're releasing War of the Worlds in July, it's possible that Criterion might have some of these. I could definitely see them going after A Place in the Sun. And being first is not always a win for the consumer. Criterion's version of WoW is suppose to have a color correction that the Imprint version might not have addressed. Luckily their announcements coincided so everyone didn't have to jump on the Imprint.    Posted:   May 22, 2020 - 2:00 PM     By:   Rameau   (Member) Since they're releasing War of the Worlds in July, it's possible that Criterion might have some of these.

Criterion's version of WoW is suppose to have a color correction that the Imprint version might not have addressed. Luckily their announcements coincided so everyone didn't have to jump on the Imprint. Yes, it seems that there's a couple of shots of Mars at the start that Paramount made cool & that Criterion has corrected, but that apart, I think it's the same master. Imprint has extras & commentaries that Criterion doesn't have & vice versa, & Criterion's encode can be not so good, & it's region A locked. If I was in America I'd buy the Criterion, but outside it I think I'd be happy with the Imprint. Anyway, great news that Paramount catalogue titles are being released on Blu-ray again. It's The Carpetbaggers & No Way To Treat A Lady for me in this batch. And next month in Australia there's Gene Hackman in Uncommon Valor (1983), & in July, Burt Reynolds in The Longest Yard (1974) both from Umbrella Entertainment.    Posted:   May 24, 2020 - 10:30 AM     By:   David Sones (Allardyce)   (Member) No way to treat a lady! Wow! I’ve wanted that one for a long time so I’m thrilled these discs are region free!!    Posted:   May 24, 2020 - 3:01 PM     By:   lars.blondeel   (Member) Paramount eh ? 'The Keep' ?    Posted:   Jun 9, 2020 - 4:26 AM     By:   TacktheCobbler   (Member) So far it doesn’t look like Imprint is having a perfect streak. Of the ones reviewed so far, it seems Paramount is just giving them old DVD-era transfers (WOTW excepted), with Sorry Wrong Number and I Married a Monster from Outer Space being the worst offenders so far. http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film9/blu-ray_review_124/sorry_wrong_number_blu-ray.htm http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film9/blu-ray_review_126/i_married_a_monster_from_outer_space_blu-ray.htm    Posted:   Jun 16, 2020 - 11:50 AM     By:   johnjohnson   (Member) https://thedigitalbits.com/item/war-of-the-worlds-1953-imprint-brd    Posted:   Jul 29, 2020 - 8:30 AM     By:   johnjohnson   (Member) Australian label Via Vision Entertainment has announced its next batch of titles from the recently launched Imprint Collection.

'The Keep' ? Blimey, they did release 'The Keep'    Posted:   Jul 29, 2020 - 11:18 PM     By:   Rameau   (Member) Paramount eh ? 'The Keep' ? Blimey, they did release 'The Keep' What's this, reacting to your own post. Forget, The Keep, it ain't never going to happen.    Posted:   Jul 30, 2020 - 12:42 PM     By:   lars.blondeel   (Member) Released thru Via Vision Australia region free Not in Blu-Ray however I think an apology is in order    Posted:   Feb 26, 2021 - 5:56 AM     By:   johnjohnson   (Member) Australian label Via Vision Entertainment has announced its next batch of titles from the recently launched Imprint Collection.

A great sixties satire, & a great & funny film, with James Coburn as cool as a cucumber, as usual.     Non-Film Score Discussion: Via Vision Entertainment Announces New Label    < 1  >   Go to page:  1   First Post    General Discussion • Trading Post • Non-Film Score Discussion  Profile • Preferences • Community Rules • Help/Contact • Search Board You must log in or register to post.   Go to page:  1
