Re: [Videolib] vhs only list (again)

[Videolib] vhs only list
Hi all Well, being the obsessive/compulsive type that I am, I spent a few hours with the list yesterday and this morning. Added a fair sprinkling of literature-into-film titles. I also did a quick cull thru the entire list and updated availability for many. I've been thinking: this is a really unique and useful resource. Definitely think we should share it more broadly than this list. Anyone got RTSD list connections? Other ideas?

Re: [Videolib] vhs only list
I've shared the wiki with three colleagues here---our music/dance/film/theater bibliographer, our film and video cataloger and our video acquisitions person---threee thumbs-up from them---four counting me! I wonder---merely wondering: Would there be any benefit to having a way to highlight new VHS-only additions, either, for example, by yellow highlighting newbies or by separating them from the rest of the list for a time? Would this help make sure they could be more easily spotted, reviewed and vetted by more people without having to comb through the entire list? As I say, I don't know if this is such a good idea or not---I was wondering though how many ways might this list be used? I would use it to determine certain VHS titles for which we need to be extra protective. It could be that some would be interested to browse for newly added titles, either vhs-only or recently available in DVD. Another question, how often does it happen that DVDs go out of availability?

Re: [Videolib] vhs only list
A couple of quick notes from a VERY quick look. A number of the titles listed as having been out on VHS were either grey market, mostly pre GATT European films, or flat out illegal copies (Porgy and Bess) or mind blowing. Seriously some one has a copy of The Day The Clown Cried? I thought it would be in a vault next the 6 hour version of GREED LONDON AFTER MIDNIGHT. That would not just be an illegal copy, but the mother of all rarities. A few things I did catch. The following films are out on DVD, ABRAHAM LINCOLN, THE KILLING OF SISTER GEORGE, DARK CITY and PHENIX CITY STORY (That one is in WB box set only). One rarity never out on DVD is I HEARD THE OWL CALL MY NAME. I am sure there is a lot more. Sorry for not being able to add this myself but I am just no good at those sorts of things.

Re: [Videolib] VHS Only List
I thought you might take a run at it so I got here early and made a number of updates before the West Coast woke up. I will lay off the rest of the day.

Re: [Videolib] vhs only list (again)
I'm sorry about being so slow to reply. I think it's good to have a protocol when it's under current discussion on Videolib and there's likely to be some overlapping activity. If history's any guide though the likelihood of overlapping editors at other times is practically nil so it probably isn't necessary to announce one's activity on an ongoing basis.

Re: [Videolib] vhs only list (again)
That might have been me, Gary. I was trying to remove Youssef Chahine's Cairo Station from the list, since we actually put that out on DVD a few years ago... but when I went back to the list it was still there. I like Tyra's idea though of leaving newly available titles on the list for awhile with availability date/info so that people who go to the list will see which long-unavailable titles can now be acquired— like Savage Messiah, Zazie Dans Le Metro, The Moon Is Blue, Cul-de-Sac, Kes, and Cairo Station for example... so I put the things I'd removed back on the list w/ current distributor info.
