| | Posted: | | | | Good evening, Sirs,
any info about the release schedule of the missing titles?
And what do you think, in brief, of the present transfers (Moore and Brosnan eras)?

| | Posted: | | | | Nothing has been confirmed yet. All the Bond films have been remastered in HD. So it's just a matter of when MGM decide to release them. A good bet for the next wave, or the unlikely possibility of all the remaining Bond films being released. Would be sometime in 2012, when Bond 23 (Or 24 if count Never Say Never Again) is released to maximise sales.
And given MGM has just been brought of bankruptcy, they need all the sales they can get. The Bond films already released are all remastered to the highest standard possible. I know cause i have watched them all. Apart from License to Kill and The Man With The Golden Gun.
As there only out in the US and could not be bothered importing. My advice would be though wait another couple of years and the complete set should turn up. |

| | Posted: | | | | Thanks for the info, Sir.
Amazon.de sells 3 (out of 10) Bond B-rDs for 20,00 EUR (including 'The Man With The Golden Gun'?!). So I began the, hmm, upgrades with the present six from the Moore and Brosnan eras. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played.

| | Posted: | | | | Latest I've heard is that a few might be released around Christmas. Maybe. But the expectation is that the remaining ones will likely show up when the new film (set to begin filming in November as I recall) either hits theaters or Blu-ray. Or maybe some when it hits theaters with the rest when it hits Blu-ray.
But as far as I know, this is all just speculation at this point. I've not heard anything "official". | | | Get the CSVExport and Database Query plug-ins here.

| | Posted: | | | | Let's hope something is announced soon.
And i wouldn't mind if they'd release an empty box which allows you to store them all in the correct, chronological order instead of how random they are being released. (at least, for those who own the 3 boxsets they released!)

| | Posted: | | | | MGM just recently renewed their distribution contract with 20th Century Fox...so at least the packaging should be in the same basic style, whenever they are released. | | | | Corey |

Not a Connery fan? He usually puts too much make-up on. And seriously, as a heterosexual man you just don't dress like that:  I have them all on DVD (2-Disc Ultimate Editions Digipak Slip Cover), though. | | | | Don't confuse while the film is playing with when the film is played.
