The Music Man Blu-ray Review

retablo · 10-06-2009, 10:31 PM

Day 1, as long as it's not digitally scrubbed like "Glad he ate her."

tigtat77 · 10-06-2009, 10:38 PM

Great news. Day one for me. Robert Preston is great in this.

Atreyu · 10-06-2009, 10:41 PM

Great news about The Music Man it's my favorite musical. We almost did it in my sixth grade class until we found out royalties had to be paid(even though it would have been free admission) and my school wasn't going to have any part of that. The teacher was going to give me Buddy Hackett's part-that of Marcellus Washburn.
Now how about the play I was in in junior high.The Sound of Music, hope this is scheduled soon.(I was Friedrick the eldest son).

This is a "must buy" for me. I've never owned the film, but fell in love with it a few years ago when we rented it on DVD.

kurtlingle · 10-06-2009, 11:08 PM

If the price is right and the transfer is good I think I'd be interested.

Great movie.

Was'nt a young Ron Howard in this?

GregBlu5 · 10-06-2009, 11:33 PM

And, of course, wide screen. I had this once in some format which they'd not done it in WS; and when the Buffalo Bills quartet was singing, you'd only get to see the middle two--the ones on either end were chopped off.

When a movie was made WS, it needs to be reproduced as WS, not FS.

He sure was.

Ever since I bought The Last Starfighter, I was wondering about this film. And now, here it is! Super! Day one purchase!

that1guystudios · 10-07-2009, 12:22 AM

Super excited about the film even if the cover art is incredibly bland. Can't wait to hear those 76 trombones in TrueHD! (Or maybe even DTS-MA?)

RetroGuy · 10-07-2009, 12:37 AM

YAY!

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. I've loved it ever since its original release when I was a child, and I've been dying for it to come out on Blu. I hope the final cover art will be better than what they've got now.

MEB · 10-07-2009, 02:20 AM

The Music Man is available for pre-order at Amazon for $20.49!! Feb 2 release date there too!

he's okay, but I wish I had seen Craig Bierko in the lead role on Broadway in 2000-2001

From everything I've heard, he was just doing a Robert Preston impression.

but Craig's more charismatic IMO.

jamesdevil · 10-07-2009, 05:50 AM

I'm all over this. Love the cover too. Instantly recognizable but classy and minimal.
