| beefstrokinoff Member 123 Posts 2/05 | Apparently, Jenna does the same thing with Club Jenna projects. She has had Sylvia (Saint) Loves Jenna in the can for over 3 years I think, and I wouldn't doubt if it never gets released since she has been filming so much lately, plus Sylvia Saint no longer works (at least in the US). She has done a lot of films to be released gradually ala Vivid. In her case, I think the motivation is that she is going to quit as soon as she gets pregnant. This way, she will be able to release new product for many years after she quits. Another one is Kobe Loves Jenna. Vivid released a version of that called Jenna Loves Kobe, which sucked in my opinion. I'm sure Jenna and Jay's version would be much better, but I'm not holding my breath for that one either. |

| Flash Golden Age Classic 11018 Posts 5/01 | SDC, I'll ask and see if they have any plans for it. Astro, VCX has been improving their quality over the last year. IMHO, They aren't fighting Video-X-Pix and Caballero for last place anymore and are up to the quality that NuTech produced back when they were releasing classic discs. |
| astroknight Questionable Moderator Tastes so good... 4187 Posts 11/99 | From what I hear, most of the Vivid movies that take so long are Paul Thomas's movies, and they take that long because he's extremely meticulous in editing them.

| Flash Golden Age Classic 11018 Posts 5/01 | Through the Looking Glass was apparently licensed by VCX through another studio and what they used as a master was cleaned up as much as they could. Until technology improves so they can try and create a better master from it, it sounds like there won't be a re-release of that title. For those interested I also asked about Girls on Fire, which is a great film but suffers from a horrible master, and that one is scheduled to be redone. |
