Do you think Tom would ever consider doing another western movie? I mean we all know he works well with animals and he definitely looks fabulous on a horse in jeans! Don't deny it! Look at how John Wayne and Jimmy Stewart continued their movies for so long. Tom may call it typecasting but if it ain't broke, don't fix it as I always tell my sons. Tom could still be a leading man, end up with the gal and ride off into the sunset and sing a tune while he was at it. He looks so natural and relaxed on a horse and it would be nice to see him in movies again. Maybe I'm just being selfish since I can't get to Australia to see his shows. I have already worn out one dvd of his "Return to Snowy River" from watching it soo often. I asked for a new one for mother's day! Any way, it was just a thought!

Hi Karina, Will I received my Windrider,was enjoying watching when the tape got stuck in the VCR, so after wanting to see this movie for years, I still don't know what it's like. I hope to pick up another one from the US . It would be great if it was on DVD, what about working as a group to action this? don't know how togo about, it but I think many would love this to happen. What do you think? But not all bad news, have really enjoyed watching Time Guardian DVD Bye for now. and Hi to all.

ohhhhh thats awful Maryanne - I hope your player is ok ??
As I was explaining somewhere on another thread - I havent been able to track down who purchased the rights to Windrider when they were in a firesale the other year - I considered it myself but was in the middle of selling and buying homes and it was too much to concentrate.
So without knowing the current owner and whether they intend to find a distributor etc I have no one to contact.
If they used their brains they would see a goldmine is there is in exploiting "the young Nicole Kidman" etc etc.

Hi Karina, I have been looking at the US & UK eBay sites today, and see that Tom's mini series Piece of Cake is now out on DVD. How can we find out if this will happen for our region in AUS & NZ? Speaking of mini series, I received my Melba last week,ever enjoyable. Keep up the great work, many thanks Maryanne. Bye for now.

Oh wow - I was thinking of buying Piece of Cake on NTSC video years ago but changed my mind because of postal costs. DVD would be nicer. If its a UK release then it "generally" will play in our DVDs downunder. But I will have a better look at the dvd cover first. I will check on the UK HMV and Virginmegastore websites.
I never saw Melba when it was originally on TV. I think I was living in the US when it was shown. Is Toms role a big one ?
Your collection is growing !!

HI KARINA, I HAVE POSTED THIS SUGGESTION SOMEWHERE ELSE ON THE FORUM ,BUT THIS IS FOOD FOR THOUGHT. CAN YOU SET UP A DOWNLOADING AREA FOR WHEN TOM APPEARS OF AU TV OR RADIO? I KNOW FOR ONE I WOULD LIKE TO HEAR OR SEE TOM NOW AND KNOW WHAT HE IS DOING. COULD YOU EVEN PUT MAYBE ONE OR TWO OF HIS SONGS, LIKE A VIDEO WITH HIM SINGING, LIKE THEY DO ON MTV, COUNTRY MISIC VIDEOS, AND ANY OTHER MUSIC VIDEO CHANNEL DOES IN THE USA, BUT ON THE FORUM? THANKS ALOT FOR READING AND THINKING ABOUT IT. IT SURE WOULD BE NICE. THANKS AGAIN

Hiya Marysusand - I just answered a similar question on another thread. Basically there are ways to do this - via websites like youtube etc - however they break every copright law known to man and I dont want my website and forum closed down due to breaking copyright laws. There are a few links to radio interviews with Tom on the ABC website. Just go to www.abc.gov.au/ - go up to the little search box and type "tom burlinson" and go thru the links it brings up. There are a few with links to complete radio interviews he has done - one is really lengthy and a great listen. If I have a moment this weekend I will put the links here so you dont have to do the whole search. You need Real Player or Windows Media Player to play most of them.

Hi Karina, and a big Hi to you all. This is such a fab site, so enjoyable to read all of the input from you all. Keep trying to find Toms work on the net, I have just about got all of his movies both VHS and DVDS soundtracks etc off the net, I went on to e Bay Aus, eBay UK, Amazon.com USA, Amazon.co CAN they are all there,some of the older VHS Movies are going for very little outlay,and those of you who live in the USA & CAN can get some fantastic deals, VHS and DVDS for your own region. I have been able to just this week receive the Mini Series Piece Of Cake on a box set of three DVDS from Canada, now I knew that my DVD Player would be ok for this DVD because my daughter-inlaw is from Canada and when she came to New Zealand a year ago she brought her DVDS with her and they play fine on my DVD player which is NOT A MULTI-ZONE DVD according to the instruction manual. So i would encourage you all to get on to these sites, all of Toms work is there for you to expore and to read the fine reviews on each of his movies and to buy and buy till you have all you want of his work. Karina you asked me about Toms roll in the Malba Mini Series, not a leading roll, there are three DVD in the Series, Tom is in the first one, and does a fine job. Last night I sat down late and viewed the Piece Of Cake Mini Series, fantastic. All the very best to you all HAPPY SHOPPING. Bye for now Maryanne. PS Loved the Windrider Karina, we lived in W.A. for 10 years some 20 years back, in Newman, up in mining country I just loved our trips to Perth, have a brother-law and his family there still, might pop-in to say Hi one day.

Hiya Maryanne Thats really handy to know canadian dvds play on NZ players !! I will definitely grab Piece of Cake soon as Tom was always very proud of his performance in that one. I still keep my eye out for Melba on ebay etc so hopefully will manage to catch it someday soon. Glad you loved Windrider. Its my favorite era in Perth. The mid 80s - when it was still a small simplistic city and no built up suburbs etc. I know Newman well - I grew up in nearby Paraburdoo from 1974 to 1979 !!! And yes when you are next in perth let me know and we can do cuppa and cake (I live in the CBD). ciao K

Hi Well I never Paraburdoo! We were living in Newman from 1973 to 1985 went into Paraburdoo a number of times, I miss the Pilbara region very much, we will get back there one day, its something my husband wants to do as he worked for Mt Newman Mining the years we were there, he wants us to drive from Perth up to Newman as we did all those years ago, I bet it will feel a lot longer now, so yes we will have that cuppa and cake. Karina I got my Melba Mini Series from chaos.com at info@chaos.com and the Piece of Cake from Movie Mars at www.MovieMars.com Pleased to know that Tom is proud of his performance, its one of his best. Most enjoyable movie. Bye for now.
