I have a feeling whole print runs of certain titles are being improperly done and it’s very frustrating and tiresome. Glad I have my mint Imprint edition of Incas just in case.

That's interesting, I went through 2 copies of Twilight (one with those deep circular scratches that ranks as the worst case I've seen so far). Kino releases used to be pristine, but I'm starting to see more and more scratched discs from them.

Kino are good folks and will help you out. Scream has thrown in the towel though. I don’t recommend Amazon either as they’re sending out those ofm emails like they’re candy. A few opened returns and your Amazon account gets nuked by a bot.

I think that POS was the straw that broke the camels back for poor Burt. A low point after a string of mediocrities that included sequels to Smokey and The Bandit and Cannonball Run that nobody wanted….

It's obvious that he didn't know where you go. He didn't really understand that times were changing. The 80's were not the decade of the ladies man. Not in the way they were before.

Look at Arnie's movies.... Most of them are not built around ladies drooling over his characters. Same for Sly. He (Burt) cared too much about being the guy all the women drooled over.

It´s with Warner, so Kino Lorber has no chance to release it.

Yeah, Burt had even said as much during interviews.

"Over a salad in his hotel restaurant in Vancouver, Reynolds is handed a list of his 42 films over which to reflect on his career. He looks them over--and points a finger at “Stroker Ace,” 1983.

“That’s where I lost them,” he says of his fans with a hint of sadness.

Then along came “Cannonball Run II,” “The Man Who Loved Women,” “City Heat” and “Stick.” Gone was his muscle at the box office. Gone was the respect and power that he once commanded in the industry.

Reynolds tries to explain how “Stroker Ace” happened. He wanted to fulfill a commitment to his longtime friend, director Hal Needham (“Smokey and the Bandit”)--so he turned down the role in “Terms of Endearment” that eventually won Jack Nicholson the best supporting actor Oscar."

A Burt Reynolds weekend. In a fantasy world, one day KLSC will have a deal with WB and there will be another weekend of Burt announcements with The Man Who Loved Cat Dancing and Best Friends (apologies to Stroker Ace fans).

It’s shocking that Best Friends never got a basic Blu-ray release considering Goldie Hawn is a just as popular. Also fans of Cannonball Run II for another Burt title that’s MIA in the States
