Quite possibly, my favorite film of 2023.

Oh, yeah!

But a 4K scan for a blu ray disc is not the same as a 4k UHD disc. I stand to be corrected but I believe Ronald was specifically referring to a 4k UHD release of All That Jazz, not a blu ray from a 4K scan. And if Warners is releasing a 4k UHD release of The Man I Love, I give you my word that...

On the contrary, I thought Ronald made what he wanted perfectly clear. Which is exactly why I didn't make a list of titles that I would pay $50 for out of the gate because my list would be unrealistic, exactly what he was not interested in. I stand to be corrected but what he didn't want was the...

Too late! You're asking too much. So many of the responses have a snowball's chance in hell of being released on a 4K UHD disc. But disc collectors aren't realistic. They're dreamers. Not putting shade on anyone, I include myself in the dreamer category.

I have Muriel's Wedding on blu ray courtesy of Germany. If you have a region free player, Amazon.de is currently asking 10 euros for it.

Sad to hear but I rarely bought discs at Target, either in store or online. Most of my disc buying is online and between Amazon and Deep Discount (and their frequent 15% off sales), I'm doing okay and the $100 gift card for Barnes and Noble I got for Christmas is burning a hole in my pocket...

Ah, so any movie that goes against your political beliefs is a POS? Got it! I tend to be more open minded but hey, that's just me!

Oh? Then how do you know it's a "POS" if you haven't seen it? Or do you always review films you haven't seen? There are many movies I have no interest in and don't go to see because the subject matter doesn't interest me but I don't pass judgement on them because, well ..... I haven't seen them...

It appears to be a blu ray but Amazon has it as a 4K UHD or am I misreading?

I still have a ton of DVDs that I've never upgraded to blu ray simply because the transfers are quite decent and the "improvement" to blu ray would be so minimal that I'd rather put my money to use on other items.

A pity they didn't include a blu ray of the remaster for those of us who haven't moved on to UHD yet. As to the cover art, the original Chinatown poster is iconic, one of the most gorgeous film posters ever! The new cover art would be just fine if the original poster didn't exist. I think the...

France released a very good blu ray of Captain Lightfoot in 2017 but alas, it appears out of print.

Very sad news as she was one of my personal favorites and anything she was in, I watched. She was in so many of my favorite films: her three with Douglas Sirk (Magnificent Obsession, Taza Son Of Cochise, Captain Lightfoot), The Young Lions, It Came From Outer Space, No Down Payment, Bigger Than...

Yeah, why bother putting it on blu ray. It's on youtube!

According to Sophia Loren, when she was making Boy On A Dolphin with Ladd, they had to dig a hole for her stand in when she did her scenes with him so she wouldn't tower over him. In her prime, Sophia was 5'9".

Is it? In theory, awards shouldn't have anything to do with popularity but quality though unfortunately that is not always/usually the case. The best film of 1956, John Ford's masterpiece The Searchers didn't get a single Oscar nomination! There are better films from 1956 than the five best...

Unlikely! David Fincher's acclaimed and Oscar nominated Mank (a Netflix film) from 4 years ago still hasn't seen a physical media release. Criterion has licensed a few Netflix films but they're usually from directors like Scorsese, Jane Campion and Noah Baumbach who Criterion has/had a...

Tell that to the copyright holder!

For some of us, knowingly buying a bootleg is not an option. I say knowingly because early in my collecting days, I just assumed if it were being sold by Amazon it must be legitimate so yes, I have a few (very few) boots in my collection but immediately replace them when a legitimate version...

It's not a critic's job to bow at the feet of a so called "great" director and massage his ego. It's their job to critique and call a spade a spade. Kael's remark (if indeed she made it and I hope she did) of "Oh, we'll let you have color" is hilarious! If Lean was upset then clearly he has no...

Well, fantasizing helps us get through life but we need to keep one foot in the real world.
