Hello, first time poster here. Like all of you, I love Charlie Chan, and want to build up a library of Chan dvds. I own the Chanthology, and am on the look out for more titles on disc. I noticed two collections of CC dvds offered by Vintage Playhouse and Vintage Theatre.
Has anyone on the boards purchased these sets? Are there any reports, good or otherwise, about the supplier?
Those are bootlegs. Reports at other message boards have generally been negative regarding their quality (not surprising considering 3 or 4 movies are put on a disc). Fox is also in the process of having them shut down for copyright infringement.
The good news is that Vol 1 of Fox's series of Chan releases is coming June 20. If fans want to see all the Chans and the Motos get released, the legal versions have to sell well. Early reports offered by posters at another Chan board indicated that Fox was looking to release at least 4 DVDs every quarter which should indicate a "fast track" approach to getting these out.
I'm really looking to Volumes 2 and 3 which should have my favorite Oland films included.
