For example the Herzog restorations (being one of my favourite filmmakers), which I am hugely grateful for, and Eyes Without A Face being pushed back for more extras! So yes, less releases but more quality. Perhaps this is a good sign for the upcoming Kurosawa Samurai Collection - maybe they've been spending time putting it together alongside the Herzog and Franju restorations and it will hopefully be worth the wait. If that set is put back, it will only mean a better end-product.

I'm also glad that they are putting more effort into their releases and there have been a few BFI releases put up for notification on Amazon recently, including some more in the wonderful British Transport Films Collection series
