Well on a lighter note, there may finally be a 'part 2' to the BluRay set!

Awesome. But you did it wrong. You have to make a new thread! Do it right!

(Sorry---just taking a playful swipe at Hepcat,lol). Please dont be offended by my crude attempt at online humor.

What the he--??!!!!

Just kidding.

Good news! Thanks for posting that!

"Began 4k restoration work on "Ghost of Frankenstein", "Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman", "House of Dracula", "House of Frankenstein", "Son of Frankenstein" and "The King of Jazz".  These will be completed in Q4"

What the hell is "Q4"?

[Anton Phibes]

4th Quarter is my guess. But it could just as easily be code for an upcoming Alien conquest of Earth for all I know.

And all this time I was looking at my Bingo chart but realized there's no Q in Bingo!

[Mike Scott]

4th Quarter is my guess.

I guess, but why not just say that?

[Twiddle]

Awesome! I've been thinking about getting the recent 30-Film DVD collection, but I might hold out for this.

And yes, Q4 is the standard abbreviation for fourth quarter, so the restorations should be done anytime from October to December.  As to when they'll be released, who knows. Hopefully we don't have to wait till next Halloween.

 All you need to know is "4k in Q4"...got it?

Sounds like a Blu-Ray Frankenstein box is on the way ("Frankenstein","Bride" & A&C Meet" are already restored). Can't we all save some money by waiting for the 8k restorations in five years or so?

What's the difference?? We're just gonna but them again in 20 years when turn 100!!

Haha! Really though, I think Universal will probably re-release these movies every fall of every year, whether it be on DVD or Blu-ray or whatever. You have this 6 film set, and then there's a new Abbott and Costello Meet the Monsters collection coming in September (DVD only).

[crissrudd4554]

I must say I wish they'd waited til all the restorations were done before issuing the 30 film set.

Then it will be computer generated 3D and Rumble-Rama.

That would make far too much sense. Remember, it's UNIVERSAL we're talking about here.
