    Weekly Roundup 7/16

    Best Buy is selling Modesty Blaise and the two Flint films for full MSRP? What's up with that? I hope it's not a trend.

    I think I have stepped in Wal-Mart for the last time.

    It's only proof that there are 1 million people who need a job. Any job. Even iof their payroll practices are completely above board, I seriously doubt that working at Walmart is anyone's idea of a dream job. People work there because they have have bills to pay and have to take whatever's...

    My Dario Argento Opera DVD has died.

    Send an email to [email protected] and explain the problem. They'll probably tell you to mail them the disc. I'm pretty sure they'll still honor the replacement program. I recently sent them defective copies of FRANKENSTEIN CREATED WOMAN and THE WITCHES and recieved replacement copies in...

    Accidental Spy Butchery Official Severity (It's bad people)

    I think there's about a zero chance of either of these films being released uncut by Disney. Besides their basic tendency to hack up every Hong Kong film they own, Disney has a policy of not releasing unrated or NC-17 rated material. I'm sure that both THE KILLER and HARD BOILED are much too...

    Any of you fancy lads hear any rumors of Cabin Boy?

    I'm almost positive this has already been announced as one of Disney's upcoming no frills catalog releases.

    Running time for "The Tall Guy"

    I own this disc and it certainly seems uncut to me. I've seen this film several times and I didn't notice anything missing on the DVD.

    Mulholland Drive edited?

    I don't think this is a big deal either. No one is a bigger fan of this film than I am, but honestly, the digitizing of part of one shot isn't going to make me like the film any less. The fact is, Harring is right about screen grabs turning up all over the net. Nudity on a theater screen...

    Is Kim EVER going to ask about her best friend, who she last saw being left for dead in the middle of the street?

    Anyone know why these titles aren't on DVD?

    There's also an all-region DVD of Once Were Warriors that was released in Hong Kong on the Ocean Shores label. I picked it up in New York City Chinatown a few years ago. It's not great but it's better than nothing. It's probably still available for order online.

    Why buy DVD when HD-DVD isn't that far away?

    If the developers of HD-DVD have any sense they will make the players compatable with existing DVD software. Honestly, how many people do you think are going to willing to adopt an entirely new format so soon after buying into DVD? Marketing a player that can play existing DVDs will lessen the...

    Ownership, above all else

    I've had this problem for a long time now. There must be at least 100 movies in my collection that i've never even . That's not even counting the DVDs of films I've seen before that still haven't seen the inside of my player. The problem is that once I own a movie, the urgency to watch it...

    Rush Hour on TNT

    They can't show "rush Hour" twenty four hours a day. That would leave no room on their schedule for "Beastmaster."

    So don't mind censored versions only on dvd??? Well check this out..........

    I've often suspected that Paramount really only cares about the titles in their library that have the words "star" and "trek" in them. Those films (and TV episodes) get countless sprecial edition releases while other worthwhile titles get only a cursory release. Still, never underestimate the...
