Morgan Dreadlocke Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 I been watchin' the Evilbay fer many years now. Never seen an affordable one that did't say it rolls or half the sound track is missin'. Good ones seem ta go fer $150 an up. The big question is will the new one be available in standard DVD or will people have ta upgrade to a newfangled blue ray player? Bess? PIRATES! Because ye can't do epic shyte wi' normal people.

They know that most people do not have the Blu-ray players (yet) and they would lose money selling things in only one format. Blu-ray IS amazing though....

Captain Falkenberg Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 I loved this one (and it's title song). Now if only they'd bother releasing it on R2 DVD (Europe). Which they won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BriarRose Kildare Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Amazon has it so you get notified when its available. Dr. Syn, Alias the Scarecrow (1964) Oh, I am so excited. I loved this movie as a child and have been looking for it for a very long time. This has always been one of my favorite non-animated Disney stories. Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all. The Dimension of Time is only a doorway to open.

Misson Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 How's come this got moved here? Syn was apparently a fictional pirate... But since it's in here now...I was watching some of McGoohan's The Prisoner TV shows recently...the ones I saw before I gave up on it were ok. I think he played the character oddly...with too much distance and too little emotion. A guy in his situation and his angry temper when quitting (as shown in the introductory credits) would be much less equable. For weird 60s psychological Brit drama/goofiness, I think The Avengers show was much more enjoyable (particularly the b/w Emma Peel seasons.) The Saint with Roger Moore was also quite good in this realm.

BriarRose Kildare Posted March 9, 2008 Share Posted March 9, 2008 I am truly excited that this movie has resurfaced. This was one of my favorites as a child. I went thru the website yesterday and the wee lad was totally enthralled with it. I think I got him hooked cause now he has been goin' around singing the scarecrow song.... By the way was this ever a series in a book form or just a movie? Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme Winter is an etching, spring a watercolor, summer an oil painting and autumn a mosaic of them all.

Iron Bess Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 (Bump) Just had a nice conversation with the fellow who has done the restoration on the Scarecrow/ Dr Syn DVD’s and he tells me it will be out this November. Included will be the Intro's featuring Walt Disney as he opened the Wonderful World of Color episodes for the three weeks it aired. Some nice Special features too!
