    Sababa Mokey Plush and Fraggle UNO

    Sorry to resurrect this thread, but today I decided "let me buy my fraggle dolls" so I started searching and discovered that there was no Mokey. ? How any company could conceive of a fraggle set and not include Mokey baffles the mind, but anyway... so I found this thread. But then it...

    Sababa Mokey coming Summer 2006

    Where can we get these? Are the dolls of Gobo and Red still available? (not the small ones, but the "plush" dolls)? How much do they cost??? thanks!

    November's Special Edition DVD's are pan-and-scan only

    Even with *no* extras, the new 16x9 WS transfers will make these all a must-have. I'm hopeful that the bonus material will be appreciable...I can't wait to get these and review them! dave :)

    November's Special Edition DVD's are pan-and-scan only

    I'd hold off on getting rid of any WS editions you have until the discs have been *reviewed* to confirm the good news... fingers crossed!

    November's Special Edition DVD's are pan-and-scan only

    Good News... I just spoke with my Disney Rep who checked in on the matter. He said that the press release was incomplete...and that both asepct ratio options (16x9 WS OAR and 4x3 P/S) will be available on all 4 DVD presentations. THIS IS GREAT NEWS. And since all for of these titles were...

    Muppets Season 1 releases Aug 9, 2005

    I also seem to remember the "retrospective" being featured in one of the trailers...I think on the Muppet-Oz DVD...that's not on the Season 1 set either. Hmmm....

    Fraggle Rock: Season 1 DVD Coming Fall 2005

    Just to remind American viewers, the European version of Fraggle Rock (the current 3-disc version selling on ebay) does NOT have the sequences with Doc and Sprocket as you're familiar...they are replaced with the lighthouse keeper for that market. While I enjoy my earlier PAL Fraggle DVD, I...

    Fraggle Rock: Season 1 DVD Coming Fall 2005

    Fraggle Rock Series...complete Seasons...Ahhh... Keep in mind that those other examples were all shot on film and so "restoration" was possible given the optical/physical nature of the format. Fraggle Rock was all deposited on video (Beta?) and so has some inherent issues that just come with...

    Labyrinth

    Sounds to me like the problem isn't so much the WS version as it is the size of your TV screen (we've all been there...and some of us still are). Start saving for your next big-screen or projector! dave :) :) :)

    Labyrinth

    What scene is missing from the DVD? I've watched it twice on the DVD (and have seen the movie twice in the theater, several times on laserdisc and several times on "TV") and didn't notice anything that had been edited. That *would* be a serious problem with the DVD if something really is...

    Labyrinth

    Hey Erine, I'm wondering if you understand the difference between the "widescreen" version and the "video" version that fills your TV. It's true that some folks just prefer the "square" version that fills their TV because they don't like black bars...and if this is you then I'm not going to...

    Any Fraggle DVD news?

    Since most of the Fraggle parts are the same...and it's mostly Doc and traveling Matt that are customized...wonder if seamless branching or mutiple-angles couldn't be used to provide both versions on the same disc? Just how many unique versions were there? Of course, Since Europe needs PAL...

    Labyrinth

    I had the earlier DVD edition (with the making-of documentary) which is excellent. Gorgeous picture and sound...though only 2.0 ProLogic (not 5.1). The new superbit DVD has 5.1 DD and DTS but I haven't opened it yet as I've heard tale that they DTS track has a lip-sync delay that's quite...
