I organize a monthly screening of Italian films for a local Italian cultural group. I'm having a hard time finding something relatively modern (10 years old or younger), available on region 1 dvd, and while not a "family film" per se, at least not something unsuitable for a young person to be in...

From rightstuf.com: DVD Features: English 5.1 Audio, Japanese 5.1 Audio with English subtitles, Commentary by Japanese Voice Cast, and Previews Date Available - Sep 13 2005 Anyone know if there will be a box for this?

Sorry for the vagueness of my original post. Here's some more info: I'm with a film society and we do various screening events around town. Some we charge admission, some we don't. At the moment we have a public performance licence from Criterion Pictures that covers us to publically screen...

- If the film is considered in the public domain, is if legal to screen in any format? For instance an old Buster Keaton film. It's considered public domain but is ok for me to screen the Kino dvd? Do I need to pay Kino for the rights to do this? - What is the best online source for the most...

Thanks for the help, guys. It's greatly appreciated. I've got a source for a 2004 16mm print of It Came From Outer Space in 3d. I've got a Bell & Howell 1592 projector with a 250W lamp. Any idea if this would be adequate? ShaunS

Thanks for the help everyone. One other question (perhaps better suited for another forum but related none the less): What about films on 16mm? Do the cheap red/blue glasses work at all on that format? I ask because my film society are thinking about bringing in a 16mm print of It Came From...

Any news on Raise the Red Lantern?

If there is another thread concerning this, please post it. I searched and came up with nothing. I'm wondering about what 3D films are available on DVD. I'm not looking for IMAX type things, but movies. Also, how good is the 3d effect when using a digial projector onto a screen? Also, do the...

I'm actually looking into doing something very similar. Screening DVDs at a local pub for free. I'd really appreciate any help anyone could provide with this. Here's some info I've got: As was stated, any "public" screenings of dvds are illegal without consent. Here in Canada there are a...

For someone who's only seen the brilliance that is The General and Steamboat Bill Jr., how do these films compare?

Wild at Heart is up for preorder at amazon.ca. $13.99. Canadian. I don't know if I can rationalize spending that much on such a crap movie. ;) Shaun

Over at the forum at www.animeondvd.com I was following a thread on the new Eva Platinum editions (until things started getting nasty...). I don't believe this new version is progressive (not that I really know what that means, but people seemed kinda upset about this). As far as the jitter...

DaveGTP, Everytime I see those screenshots I get more and more excited for this to arrives. Reassures me that I did the right thing in selling my original set. Now if only dvdsoon would ship it... Shayne, Bravo. Well done. Shall we close shop on this thread now? :D One other thing, I am...

The movie is a fantastic ending to the series, in my opinion. To make a long story short, the final two episodes of the television series weren't all they could have been to many fans of the show. So the director created the film. Whether or not it's the "proper" ending is up for argument. Some...

Simon, There are 25 or 26 episodes and a 2 hour film as well. Each episode continues from the previous one with the story arc properly ending with the film. Watching them out of order would make no sense. Hell, some people argue it makes no sense watching it in order. But you can ignore those...
