    Vertigo (Remake) (2025)

    As for Hanks' age, 70 is the new 50, so it works out. As for the female lead, maybe Emma Stone, Amanda Seyfried, or Scarlett Johansson.

    Press Release SPHE Press Release: Columbia Pictures’ 100th anniversary

    But we're talking Colombia's 100th Anniversary. IMHO it should be part of it.

    Press Release SPHE Press Release: Columbia Pictures’ 100th anniversary

    Then the complete DVD Stooges collection should be released on Blu-ray, just as Universal did with there Monsters collection. First the full set on DVD, then released on Blu-ray.

    Press Release SPHE Press Release: Columbia Pictures’ 100th anniversary

    If they are titles that you want to own then it's a good deal. However I find that these "bundles" always consist of several titles I already have and several titles that I have no interest in. If there should be a few titles that I would want but don't already have, I'll just buy the individual...

    Blu-ray Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - The Great Ziegfeld -- in Blu-ray

    I have the Criterion released DVD of "Hamlet", so I would think that they should be able to release it in Blu-ray for the many of us who do not have a region-free player.

    UHD Review Weird: The Al Yankovic Story (Shout Studios) UHD Review

    I blind-bought it too. I enjoyed it, but I wasn't expecting a parody of his life. I get it now, a parody of the man known for parodies. Duh!

    Blu-ray Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - The Great Ziegfeld -- in Blu-ray

    OK, now we're down to just 2 more Best Picture Oscar winners waiting for a Blu-ray release. Olivier's "Hamlet (1948) and Mike Todd's "Around the World in 80 Days" (1956). Of course a U.S, release of "Coda" would be nice too.

    Universal Classic Monsters: Icons of Horror Collection Volume 2 (4k UHD)

    I think this happens often. "The Godfather" movies were actually filmed with 4:3 ratio and then cropped for theatrical release. When they were released on laserdisc both versions were available.

    A Few Words About While we wait for a few words about… Killers Of The Flower Moon - in 4k UHD

    To have an intermission during a 3-hour+ movie has nothing to do with its quality. The only concern is allowing the audience a potty break. Even if one goes just before the movie starts, not everyone, especially older movie-goers, can hold it that long. It's just a courtesy to your paying...

    A Few Words About While we wait for a few words about… Killers Of The Flower Moon - in 4k UHD

    Marty has a point. But when you watch tv for 5 hours, it usually has commercial breaks, or at least there are breaks between programs. Or most of the time you can paused the program with your remote, then resume it.

    A Few Words About While we wait for a few words about… Killers Of The Flower Moon - in 4k UHD

    Bring back the days when a movie longer than 150 minute usually had an intermission, and the "Previews of Coming Attractions" (trailers) lasted about 5 minutes, consisting only of the feature(s) that will be playing at the theater immediately following the current program's run. (Wow! I'm...

    Is it useless to pre-order or even buy Blu-rays etc on Amazon.com?

    I had a big problem pre-ordering the Blu-ray 3-D release of "Robot Monster 70th Anniversary". I pre-ordered a month ahead of the release date. When the release date got closer, I got an email telling me the delivery date would be about a month after the release date. I was upset, but I decided...
