Wow, that sounds... frightening.

so folks are caving, eh? I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of geeks suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.

finally, I can toss my pan and scan LD! woo hoo!

WTGAD is probably the weakest film in his collection. Herzog also dismisses it in his outstanding "Herzog on Herzog" book. I don't think it's that bad; it has it's moments, but its the last film of his I'd sit down to watch again.

Copolla's commentary is awesome. He covers so many different areas of the making of the film and it was good to hear his logic for putting certain scenes back in. Having said that, I still dislike Redux. It loses the plot and momentum of the original. The French plantation sequence feels...

not only is Signs of Life now availble, it's got a great commentary track. And "Nobody Wants to Play with Me" is the best short I've ever seen in my life, period. It cost me an arm and leg to hunt it down, but it was worth it. Every person I've watched it with has been floored by it. Come...

That would make more sense, but less cents.

I havent seen any mad max films. I read that its best to watch road warrior first then mad max? Because it's such a great action movie and doesn't need the first movie to be enjoyed and you can go back to mad max later. Thoughts on this??

not loving the new pac man logo.

okay here's a tough one, I wanna say it was bette davis, but I've searched her filmography and couldn't find it. A stuborn older woman lives in a house by a sea and she has a vase? or some heriloom that the sea wants back. the characters are trapped in the house through a hurricane and at one...

I gotta agree. I'm not crazy about "Basil Exposition" at the end of Psycho either. You hit the nail on the head though, in the case of Psycho, Stephano was in analysis at the time so the explanations were novel... to him. ...And I understood Marinie as well; depsite what revisionist say...

Cool, two very different Hitch films and you'll get to see the range of the master. I'd go on to watch Strangers on a train Shadow of a doubt To Catch a Thief Rebecca Notrious Rope Although you have them, I'd put off Marnie, Topaz, and Family Plot until you've seen all the other...

If someone wound up with a problem disc, what are the odds of getting a Boomerang replacemnt disc?

It's been said before, but I gotta say it too, The Searchers looks incredible.

Yay, more Fritz Lang!... and the screen debut of Gene Tierney!

I hope they follow up with a John Wayne / Howard Hawkes box. I could go for some Rio Bravo two disc special edition action.

I had to pay 64.99 for the John Wayne/Ford set at my Best Buy, didn't see it in the sunday flier. Is everyone else paying 55.99?

darn it, so this isn't happening? sigh.

Why even bother making this thread now that hd-dvd is out? kidding! I agree with everything the original poster said on this thread. The post in the Kingdom of Heaven was a perfect example of how annoying some HD DVD "evangelists" can be. Why can't people just discuss a movie without...

I wish that was the case. Sony took the Midnite Movies line and quickly ran it into the ground by selecting inferior movies AND hiking up the price. Thankfully, their reign of terror is ending.. Go Fox, show them how it's done!

The production of this set obviously began before even the original film release. It wasn't like it suddenly spiked on home video (I've seen no evidence of this) and they scambled to make a 4 disc set after the fact, it was probably in the cards from the start as another way to recoup costs, ala...

If Oliver Stone can still get to direct big budget pics after his box office disappointment, surely Scott will still have a shot at making Tripoli... Hopefully his heart is still in it, it must be frustrating for him.

Imagine seeing that message posted to the star wars thread! All these delays of noirs lately are disconcerting.

Has a fax number been listed? Emails are easy to filter to a trash can without even being read, but faxes have to physically be dealt with. Stacks of complaint faxes would have more of an impact than "virtual" complaints. If this issue is importnat to you, fire off those faxes.

Not everyone has jumped on the HD bandwagon.

wasn't sure of the use of the word bate so I looked it up: Bate: 1 : to reduce the force or intensity of : RESTRAIN 2 : to take away : DEDUCT 3 archaic : to lower especially in amount or estimation

legit question: How is it that the current anamorphic dvd of A New Hope looks so damn good, and yet Lucas is unable to produce the same footage just without the digital cartoons that he keeps shifting around on the various releases? The fact that he keeps changing the digital additions is...

will Best Buy carry the Paramount noirs (Body and Soul, Secret Beyond the Door, The Dark Mirror and Letter from an Unknown Woman) and Love Happy this week?

Nor is it the great deal it used to be.

Yeah, the draw for me as well was the price point. I dug the line because it offered cool B-movies at B-movie prices. Around 5 bucks per shlock horror film is almost perfect. I like cult and camp horror movies, but most of them I wouldn't pay more than 5 bucks for. Anyone here impressed with...
