Interesting timing, coming on the heels of The Ghost & The Darkness.

Can Men Against the Sun and Killers of Kilimanjaro - which dispenses with the lions with the minimum of fuss and screentime long before the picture ends - be far behind? Probably, since they're both pretty poor.

Wow, those both took a while to finally sell out. I bought them from the WSL sale back in May 2020! In all fairness though, there are some other titles I bought back then (and slightly earlier) that are still in the sale somehow.

I think you originally said both were previously released on DVD, but then you mentioned you couldn't find the Shout DVD 4-pack you were under the impression one film was featured on. Thanks.

I always thought this was released on DVD by Shout, it was under license to them for a while, but I couldn't find the 4-pack DVD release I thought I had seen.

We still haven't signed it.

Not sure what they have to do with Bwana Devil. As far as I know neither of them are 3-D.

Again, the release has nothing to do with lions, Bwana Devil will most likely be out early next year, month after G&D.

We just signed a new Paramount deal. I can't share any details till later, it includes 65 new titles, 3 Paramount renewals and 3 CBS renewals, 71 in total.

Someone should attempt to license the Touchstone catalog from Disney. They haven't done anything with those titles for such a long time.

Do you think no one has tried?

[Shanghai Express]

My Paramount wishlist is smaller than I thought:

Alfie (1966)
The Gambler (1974)
Hud (1963)
Is Paris Burning? (1966)
Sorry, Wrong Number (1948) [NOT the same master as the Imprint release please thank you x]

Are they open to licensing for UHD?

Also, I'm sure we know the answer to this as a community but I'm forgetting, but does Paramount allow third party labels to do new remasters or do they do all that internally and they just have to work with what's on the shelf?

Obviously I'm not going to ask about decades and such given you said you can't share any details, but I'm hoping you might be able to answer a couple of very general questions (but if not, that's fine):

1) Since you specified CBS renewals, I was just wondering - are there any CBS titles among the 65?

2) Are the terms of this deal different from before, in that you are able to licence Paramount titles they themselves previously released on DVD? Seems probable given the numbers involved.

No new CBS titles in the deal, maybe if we do a followup deal next year. We renewed Prime Cut, Monte Walsh and The Challenge.

Yes, the package includes many titles previously released by Paramount, I would say the majority of them were released by them.

The deal includes UHD titles.

We've remastered titles for them in the past, Love with the Proper Stranger, Phobia, The Psychopath, many 3-D films...

[BarnDoor]

UHD titles? Wow there must be some big ones in there.

I wonder if there are any Miramax titles included?

[SkinnyTwist]

Maybe now there will be hope for The Longest Yard and Paper Moon, which collect dust as Paramount celebrates the Steelbook reissue of Good Burger. Ugh...

KLI Insider, I just finished your Fantamos set. ABSOLUTELY incredible! Is there any chance that you might release the 1916 Judex film? That is only available in HD in France, from what I can tell.
