    So it looks like this set will have SD versions of the Keoma and Grand Duel Blu-ray transfers that were released earlier this year.

      It would be nice if someone issued a decent transfer of ONE-EYED JACKS.

      All the DVDs and the Blu-ray are sourced from the Paramount laser-disc.

      But the best port remains the first DVD, issued by Front Row, a company now defunct.
