Jun 3 12 7:34 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	The first time Universal releases one of their horror classics to Blu-ray. I'm looking forward to this one, but I do hope that there are special features(especially the Greg Mank audio commentary). http://www.classicflix.com/abbott-costello-meet-frankenstein-bluray-p-12591.html Check out my movie collection at: http://www.dvdaf.com/search.html?where=larryw7&init_form=where_0_larryw7*mode_more

Jun 4 12 8:16 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I'm kind of like what's the point. I don't have a BR player...maybe one day. If all the extras are on the DVD? I already have the DVD in the big box set, with the excellent commentary. I think I'm good with A&C with that set. Nothing to entice me to buy this.

Jun 4 12 12:09 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I might get this, if it's got a lower-price than BUCK PRIVATES. It looks like the price has dropped on TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD so maybe Universal is catching on that they need to be a bit more reasonable with titles that have had a half-dozen other incarnations.

Jun 4 12 12:54 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	The BUCK PRIVATES Blu-ray was on sale at Best Buy a week or so ago for $19.99 and I still didn't buy it. I just don't see the point when I have the great DVD with the commentary in the Universal A&C box set. That being said, I'm going to have a really hard time not buying A&CMF on Blu-ray, no matter what the extras. It's one of my very favorite movies, so I'm sure I'll wind up buying it.

I was disappointed by the DVD-Beaver review on this title because they failed to do any side-by-side comparisons and drew conclusions based on memory. to me it looked pretty-good, I just don't have great fondness for the film, especially at the price being asked http://www.dvdbeaver.com/film3/blu-ray_reviews56/buck_privates_blu-ray.htm

Jun 4 12 7:08 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	@ Pulp ~ I was saying I would buy ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN on Blu because I love it that much. I wasn't referring to Buck Privates. Wasn't sure if you misunderstood my post. Links To All The Classic Monster Stills I've Posted: http://monsterkidclassichorrorforum.yuku.com/topic/30758

We're ABBOTT AND COSTELLO MEET FRANKENSTEIN blood brothers. I've dipped as many times on this title and I'm afraid I'll have to do it again.

Jun 8 12 10:35 AM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I'll be picking it up. It wasn't until recently that I was able to fully appreciate this film's charms and now I love it. Plus, the first time I'll ever see Universal Monsters (other than Phantom from Image) on blu? I can't resist that.
