In other exciting news, my handy dandy new 5.1 mix of LOST HORIZON has arrived.

Did you get your replacement through WB? And if so did you just call their customer service # and they'll send you a replacement?

Nope, Amazon, where it's $5 cheaper.

I got mine from Amazon, also.  But here's a "review" from today:

Quote
For those concerned about the dvd mix being in mono, here's a quote (and link) from an interview with Grover Crisp, Executive VP of Asset Management, Film Restoration & Digital Mastering at Sony Pictures.

Q - The new DVD was released mono, but the press release indicated a new 5.1. What happened?

A - Quite frankly, I still don't know how it happened, except that somewhere in the manufacturing chain there was a mix-up and the wrong audio file was encoded. An honest mistake, but one that is obviously embarrassing and for which we apologize. The problem has been rectified now and as of last week all new discs manufactured have the correct 5.1 and anyone who wants a replacement can exchange it at the point of sale. All sellers should be aware of this.

Hope this helps.

Well, the lights just got turned off...I guess the janitor didn't realize that I'm still here.  And she probably also set the alarm.  I'll have to turn it off, then turn it back on to be able to leave.  So, I guess I need to leave.  Fortunately, it's time for me to leave.  So, I'm leaving...work, that is.

Be back later.

That's from HTF.  All you need to do is email/call Amazon or WBShop and request a replacement.  They'll send you a return label to send back the mono one.

BK:

I have some questions about the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang cd (2cd)

I am wondering if I am correction on my assertions.

1) The Chu-Chi Face (Playback) sounds like the dance music at the castle (Sung after the vocal of Chu-Chi-Face and before Doll On the Music Box)

2) Doll On a Music Box (Part 3) Is this the actually version as heard and seen in the film rather than the version heard on the first cd1?  As Dick Van Dyke stops singing three times. Twice being hit by Howes and once seeing his reflection.

And on CD1

Also what exactly are differences between the LP & film music  for Chitty CHitty Bang Bang (Finale) & The Exit Music? I don't hear the differences

I don't know the differences on the playback versions.  There's no difference in the exit music or finale other than they're completely different mixes and sound.

George, you should have absolutely gotten a signed booklet - I'm now petrified that the helper somehow screwed up the invoices, which I had in strict arrival order, which is how they were given to her and she was told she could NOT screw up that order by turning them the wrong way or whatever.

Matthew's order came in almost three hours later, so he probably missed it.  George, I kept five emergency booklets for just this problem, so I'll instruct the helper to send you one.

Thanks, BK.  Hopefully, you won't run out of those five. :-\

I'm just trying to ascertain how it could have happened.  I haven't heard back from the helper yet.

I do know that some early orderers did get their signed copy so that's what's baffling right now.
