Hey, all the Duke fans out there...two never before released on video movies came out today...Island in the Sky, and The High and the Mighty...

High and Mighty being a 2-discer, with commentaries and lots of extras, plenty of extras on Islam in the Sky too.

Picked 'em both up at lunch...on sale for $14.99 and $9.99. Both have been restored and remastered.

Can't wait to watch them!

Where did you find them? Is "The high and the mighty" a Western?

They have been showing those two movies on AMC for a couple of weeks now.

Islands in the sky is a military plane crash in the Artic.

The other is a civilian airplane crash movie, also.

Both are pretty good if you are Duke fans.

I got both of them at Media Play...I would think any good size DVD retailer would have them, today is the release date.

Both are aviation movies...Island in the Sky is a military transport that goes down, and its the story of their survival afterwards...

High and Mighty has the Duke as an ex-military pilot, relegated to co-pilot duties on commercial aircraft and saving the day (I think, I never have seen either!) on a flight...ala the Airport movies I guess...both were made in the '53 '54 time frame....
