I guess its just me...or maybe attributable to my Aspergers, but even the thought of hearing Jerry Lewis' voice gives me a migraine, let alone actually trying to sit through a movie with him in it....so for me it's not the quality of his film's per se, just the fact that he's in it.domino harvey wrote:Seriously, this is probably the worst message board on the internet to come to with an anti-Jerry Lewis comment

If you want to see if you find him funny without having to hear his Jerry Lewis voice, check out the great, plotless The Bellboy.
It's only been recently that his voice annoys me when he starts talking, about leave comedy to the men and some other things.

Is Robert Siodmak's Someone to Remember still part of the Republic library?

There was a local "morning zoo" DJ who had a guy who did a killer Jerry Lewis impersonation. There were real great bits where they would call for instance Bruce Willis in his Cannes hotel room and try to get him to be part of Jerry's "comeback" picture. The great part being that even after Bruce realizes that it's a put-on he still plays along instead of hanging up.Gregory wrote:If you want to see if you find him funny without having to hear his Jerry Lewis voice, check out the great, plotless The Bellboy.

If I had to snap come up with 5 movies I'm genuinely angry I saw, this would make the list. So it's not just the voice. Jerry's just a room divider, which may speak quite well of him.Gregory wrote:If you want to see if you find him funny without having to hear his Jerry Lewis voice, check out the great, plotless The Bellboy.

What aspect ratio will it be in?
Re: Olive Films

Not sure about Aspect Ratio, but here is what MisterLime says about the transfer:
Restored by UCLA Film & Television Archive in association with the Film Foundation. Restoration funding provided by The Film Foundation.
Newly re-mastered in HD by Olive Films and Ignite Films.

That's a must-buy. Way better than the Alpha cover.

You can tell it's a classic era noir because back then the tough guys really knew how to pull off a completely pink and purple suit/shirt/tie combination.

I'm still irrationally upset that knives thought Alpha was right to put Lee Van Cleef's name on a noir film's cover rather than Richard Conte

The Big Combo will be 1.78:1
This is correct for The Big Combo (well, almost).
Excited to see what it looks like if it uses a UCLA resto and is a new master, though RAH recently said that their release of The Enforcer was from dupe elements, despite Olive's claim it used a UCLA resto too (which RAH believes would have been from original elements).
RAH on The Enforcer
Similar things were said about McLintock:
RAH on McLintock
Though in that case there are caps showing how vastly superior the HD broadcast version is compared to the Blu-ray.
Fingers crossed.

Can someone please explain why in all these cases the most recent, fully funded, immaculately conceived and professionally executed restorations are not used to create the currently released discs? Is it really that no one . . . rights holder, licensee, disc producer wants to pony up for a new transfer?
