Well you heard it from me and i heard it from the LA Times. Unfortunately with DVD sales dropping, movie companies are looking for ways to save money. So they scrap certain movies. And those are classic movies. Classic movies will either take longer to reach DVD or Blu-Ray, or they will never be released. Since all the focus is on modern movies, classics are left in the dust, which is shameful. Which is why i am going on a DVD craze on Amazon. I've been to all the stores, from Best Buy and Borders to DVD Rental and they don't have many or any old movies. And the stores that do, say Borders, charge outrageous prices (24.99) for an old movie. So i go to Amazon where i buy them for used prices or new. Very affordable!. I've bought All About Eve, Sunset Boulevard, The Ghost and Mrs Muir, Now Voyager, Mildred Pierce, Gone With The Wind, and much more.
You know what i say to the movie studio, do not cut old movies from your repertoire of collections. And i also say to the average dummy of a movie viewer, expand your horizons. Don't watch that junk. As Dr. Jaquith in "Now Voyager" said "Not that way, this way". Come to watch classic movies and you will love them.
