The minute I got that e-mail I changed plans from "three at a time" to "two at a time" to offset the increase. Since they have problems keeping Blu Rays in stock I don't feel like I'm going to miss much with the smaller plan.

Wha? This is the first I've heard of this and there is no mention on their website. Do you have a cite?

As I was spinning the Joe Jackson soundtrack, it occurred to me: Has anyone, outside of WB, seen the original edit of Mike's Murder? According to IMDB and other sources, it was apparently edited in a non-linear fashion but the studio choked and had it put it in chronological order before...

FYI, the box set is currently $99.97 at DeepDiscountCD. Not bad considering list is $150.

1997: The Usual Suspects, in the hard plastic "Polygram" case, before packaging had been standardized. (And you thought "Snappers" were bad!)

Jeff Well's column today at Hollywood-Elsewhere points out an error in the Spartacus section: Perhaps this is what Mr. Harris was referring to.

Only part of the sex scene was removed for theatrical release. They removed some "over-the-top" stuff.

Puppet sex.

I'd like to thank Gary Tooze and DVDBeaver for bringing this book to my attention. The next project focusing on Kubrick's unfinished Napoleon sounds just as fascinating. I had originally ordered this through Amazon but their late shipping date (which may be an estimate) plus Gary's post...

I'd also warn that two version of the Goodtimes DVD exist and it appears that only one of them has the original soundtrack. My copy (original soundtrack) came in a snapper. I've seen a Goodtimes version in a used DVD store that came in a keep case and had different cover art.

Nice review but I don't understand the need to slam J.K. Rowling. What terrible things has she done to earn to earn the label "infamous"?

And you can buy it here.

It depends on the movie. I found out about re-releases for both Midnight Run and Roger Rabbit when the original releases were still selling for big money on E-Bay. By selling them, I was able to offset the cost of the new editions and actually pocket some cash. However, most of the time I...

I tried watching ANH this past weekend and had a headache after 15 minutes. The reversed music in the rear channels is unbearable and I'm not usually that picky. They must issue a recall for this disc.

I stand corrected. I assume that MGM was unwilling to accommodate him.

Or on The Elephant Man, Blue Velvet, Eraserhead, Straight Story, etc.

It's the Director's Cut. See DVD Beaver.

I'm a little confused. My Region 1 disc, one of the only pan and scan titles I own, DOES have Brown Sugar on the soundtrack during the club scene. I am not familiar with the Keith Emerson song so that I can't vouch for.

I seem to remember reading about a commentary track by Abel Ferrara, possibly on Driller Killer, that ends with him screaming "What the fuck happened to the end of my movie!?!" and storming out of the recording session. Apparently the company only had the edited version of the film. I've yet...

The $10 million dollar figure is to restore the film elements. Doing a clean-up for home video is a different beast entirely. This is akin to North by Northwest, which looks great on DVD but needs restoration to look as good on the big screen.

Microsoft just announced a similar device: http://seattlepi.nwsource.com/busine...otebook05.html

Roger Corman's Frankenstein Unbound Robinson Crusoe on Mars

E-Bay used to be quite the seller's market for OOP DVDs. I sold my copy of Criterion's The Killer for just under $400 a little over three years ago. More recently, I was able to sell the old Who Framed Roger Rabbit and Midnight Run DVDs before they were re-issued for over $50 each. I'm...

I just got shipping confirmation on mine! Time to check out the LCD projector from work.

Nope, DVDFile is wrong. See http://www.hometheaterforum.com/htfo...hreadid=140723

I keep all of my DVDs in "condoms," as it were. Actually, polybags. This not only reduces shelf-wear but also lowers the discs exposure to the elements (i.e. oxidation). Like CDs, DVDs are metal discs sheathed in plastic and all plastics are pourous. The less they are exposed to air, the less...
