Most definitely! The day those are all released, I am 100% on board with buying ALL of them. Forget the TBS/TNT Bond marathons! I'm making my own with a 007 script! Oh, man this is going to be fun. :D

BIG congrats to K for inking a deal with MGM. It's on now. Hope I don't max out my CC to fast. Haha.

Sorry but not so fast, bond is a separate agreement that comes MGM has been established at the store. I was told.
 
K does not release official statements about Studio content until they have titles available for download, meaning these titles are available for you to order. So for those that may be losing sleep over this subject, it works this way:

1. First they sign a contract with the Studio. (done)
2. With the contract in place, the Studio starts providing content. (working)
3. K gets the content from the Studio and does what they do (bookmarking, etc.)
4. When they are satisfied there is enough content in the Store, they announce.

Those concerned should take a deep breath, relax, pet you support animal, have breakfast, focus on real life, donate to the Bahamas (doubt they care about studios and
advanced codecs), and the content will eventually be available.

Regarding "Bond" movies, as already noted in a prior comment, MGM doesn't fully control that content, there are other entities involved in the process, but expected to eventually be available.

Jim
 
I'm done posting advanced codecs, prior comments have already explained the process, it will not change.

In the meantime, we have a magnificent Around The World In 80 days. Immersion was created in the 1950's.
 
Agreed, great movie!

...I've been told that Ghibli has not put their movies on streaming because of feelings about the inferiority of it. Ghibli would be a huge get for K and would allow them digital distribution while maintaining their quality standards.

I TOTALLY agree with Ghibli's sentiments. Thankfully K addresses their valid concerns on that front. :D

Thanks Lon....

In re-reading my post, I need to apologize for the tone. I'm always on others about this, and then I make an edgy post myself, so my apology to anyone bothered by the tone. No excuse, but a great friend from my gov/military days is one of those missing from the main Abaco island, he got stuck there trying to help a friend according to his wife, now he's missing and presumed dead. I have a tendency to overreact, forgetting that this is real life also, and the forum is here as a voice, and has little value if people can't express their frustration, regardless of the level, whether I agree or not.

So instead, I'll pay tribute to my friend David, I wouldn't be here if not for him......

In 1973, while working for one of our intell agencies, I was on a mission in Southeast Asia doing POW recovery work. We HALO'd in during the early morning hours with a team of 8 guys. We did the job, and while exiting to our pick up zone we were chased and I took a hit that went through my back and exited my abdomen. I didn't even realize I was shot given the adrenaline running through me, but once it was pointed out by another operative, the pain took over. The PZ was hot as well, which made pick up incredibly difficult. When Medevac ID'd a new zone, we moved the POW's and two other wounded guys to that zone. Being in charge, and because the bleeding had appeared to be stopped, I stayed back with several others to provide cover support and we waited for another pick-up. Two Loaches showed up and grabbed the remaining guys and said they'd be back for me. Before they got back I was taking too much fire, was scared out of my mind, so I took off, found another location and tried to convey my location, but was unsuccessful. I spent several hours evading, and then heard a Loach near me, I shot a flare, and then as expected started taking fire in my direction. The Loach was taking fire as well, but he pulled me out anyway, and took two rounds in the process (leg and arm). He saved my life....became a great friend....and I wish I could have done the same for him.....

He's one of the reasons I left the Intell biz to fly attack helicopters.

If he's somehow reading this....I love you my friend, my kids wouldn't be here without you....and on my honor I'll be there for your family going forward......

Wow Jim. That was really powerful. Thank you for your service and everything you do. We'll be thinking about you and hoping your friend is somehow just unable to contact and is in fact ok.
 
Thanks guys, appreciate the comments.

Either way, this is about him, not me, I owe him so much...he's a real hero, one that because of the missions can never be recognized....no medals for him...but he'd probably decline anyway, that's just the way we lived back then.....
