Certainly is!
Wow.
I'm going crazy over here ordering Blurays.
A couple I really want is Flaming star and Follow that dream.
Cannot find for less than $29.99. That's just too much money for old
movies I own already, and have seen lots of times.
Flaming Star was the last one I recently acquired, reason being it’s always been too expensive.
There’s only so much I’ll pay again for a movie I already own, even if the DVD quality doesn’t come close.
The price of Flaming Star has been kept artificially high over recent years so as not to compete with the ‘Twilight Time’ 2015 limited edition, but I’m guessing as both were expensive that neither were selling in good quantities.
It’s only recently that the standard 20th Century Fox edition has dropped in price, and that’s why I purchased it at £13.00
Some of the EU blu-rays can now be picked up for around just £10.00 if you’re canny and do some homework first.
‘Change Of Habit’ was another that was expensive until recently, but I found a deal at just under £10.00 including delivery so snapped it up.
I’d really like to see ‘Loving You’ and ‘Blue Hawaii’ on blu-ray, and although ‘Loving You’ was ready to go they hit a publishing issue regarding payments for a song, or songs in the movie. It’s a real shame about that, but if they have to pay more for just one song the payment has to go up for every song in the movie under the terms of the movie music publishing agreement. This is the kind of thing that makes some older projects financially unviable sadly.
