Not really, hopefully sometime in May.

Any more Burt Lancaster in the Universal deal, besides KISS THE BLOOD OFF MY HANDS?

I'll take that. I was worried you would say something like August or beyond. Crossing my fingers for May.

AGAINST ALL FLAGS (1952)
• NEW Audio Commentary by Film Historian Stephen Vagg
• Theatrical Trailer
• Dual-Layered BD50 Disc

Hollywood legends Errol Flynn (Captain Blood, The Sea Hawk), Maureen O’Hara (The Black Swan, Lisbon) and Anthony Quinn (Zorba the Greek, The World in His Arms) team for a swashbuckling adventure in Against All Flags. ]

Well, there you go, another Errol Flynn film on BD. All the Flynn fans should buy this up & make Warner Archive notice.

Doubt it, since Disney now controls Fox and who knows when we'll see their output again on Blu.

I was hoping that maybe the Insider could offer some "inside" info!!

That's Right hammer99 ! Finally a Errol Flynn release on Bluray ! I don't Understand WBArchive at all.

I don't know, maybe I was expecting too much? Usually adventure dramas are right up my alley, but I felt really disappointed and was getting antsy for it to end. None of that means anything though because when you yourself like a movie, that's all that matters.

Hoping to hear more news about The Ghost Breakers soon ……..

I was a teenager when I saw MANDINGO during its first run theatrical release and deemed it the worst movie I had ever seen. I gave it a second chance some 30 years later and this time thought it was brilliant. I know DRUM is a poor relation, but I think I could have a lot of fun with it. Thoughts?

Hmm, well, I weighed these responses and all the considerations they yielded very, very seriously before making my decision on whether to give DRUM a chance or not. Days and days of ample research combined with a dedicated meditation on all the variables involved were necessary to make certain that in the end I could be sure I was indeed making the right decision.

Actually, after reading MJA's post, it took me about about 5 seconds to go and buy it.

Waiting for that one myself...

Taken from HTF, here's the final slate for 7/28:

Raggedy Man (1981) | The River (1984) | Lorenzo's Oil (1992) | The Public Eye (1992) | The System (1964) aka The Girl-Getters | Hannibal Brooks (1969)

Raggedy Man and The Public Eye were hitherto unknown titles from the Universal deal. Presumably we'll get art and specs of all of these tomorrow.

I thought they might have picked up The Public Eye (1992), and I'm glad to see they did.

Glad to see the Insider's affirmative reply to TommyQ's question about the possibility of more Madeleine Carroll. My fingers are crossed for "Honeymoon in Bali", a terrific 1939 comedy with her and Fred MacMurray and "Bahama Passage", eye-pleasing tropic isle shenanigans involving the lady and her then-husband, a twenty-something Sterling Hayden. That one's in extra-lush Technicolor, Madeleine Carroll and Technicolor being a very hard to beat combo.

Unless something else has been added to the deal, I think the title in question can only be My Favorite Blonde.

No set date, still coming soon. Some of the previously announced titles are on hold due to the issues we're all experiencing around the world.

[BarnDoor]

Kino Insider - IIRC, you said you'd be able to announce the last MGM title on or shortly after 16th May. Is this still the case?
