Thanks! Knew that actually, just wanted to know if the Final Cut had a bookmarking feature to begin with. I have a Samsung BD5700, it's my 3rd player, so I knew that I'd lose my bookmarks. Don't mind tho, gives me a chance to go back & thin the herd so to speak! :D
I just got a new blu-ray player a few wks ago so the old bookmarks are gone. Don't matter, gave me a chance to thin out the ones I had stored anyway.
So you don't remember if it had a bookmarking feature? I'm in Region 1 if that wasn't clear before.
And yup, the 5 disc edition was well worth...
I have this version of the Blade Runner 5 disc edition: http://alturl.com/rmo34
I could swear that at least the Final Cut disc of the film had a bookmarking feature but it seems to be gone... or am I just misremembering entirely?
Getting quite pissed about this too!! On Nflix, I just watched Thor, new to streaming. Wasn't in the orig AR. Quite annoying! What the hell's the deal? Must be that Nflix is caving to pressure from ignoramuses who insist that the image fill the screen! I think I might just go back to a disc...
Thanks. I can always add bookmarks & already have. Just seems like a strange oversight on the part of the BR production crew. I'm pretty sure my DVD Dossier edition has stops for the chapters I'm talking about. Oh well, oh hell. The movie still looks INCREDIBLE on BR tho!
A question about the chapter stops: Am I missing something or did they forget or just not include chapter stops for the Redux scenes? I couldn't find one in the pop-up menu for either the Playboy Bunny or French Plantation or cargo container scenes.
One thing I've found a bit irritating about the Apoc Now BR: the chapters for the restored Redux footage seem to be missing: there doesn't seem to be chapter stops for the French plantation scene or the extra scenes w/the Playboy bunnies. Am I missing them in the pop-up menu or something?
I think my pick for the best film of the decade would be Children of Men. Had everything I look for in a movie: great acting, great story, action, violence, chases, humor, suspense, tension, apocalyptic overtones, excellent cinematography & great direction by Alfonso Cuaron.
Now, my 10, in no...
Aw hell, I'm surprised I didn't mention this one:
Eddie (Roger Guenevere Smith) being beaten to death w/a pool cue in Deep Cover. The way he screams is just horrid!
Also, the guy who steps on the mine in Dead Presidents - OOOOOOG!!!
Howdy all!! Wanted to know if anyone else has had trouble with these 2 titles or if there are other threads you can direct me to. First, a little history:
I'm using PowerDVD 9 Ultra (or Ultra 9, can't keep 'em straight) on my laptop. Every disc I've played up to this point has been fine, just...
Actually, the execution of Wallace in Braveheart always leaves me cold mainly because I think it was too pretentiously done. Also, I could swear the axe falls about 6 times.
One death that really made me shiver was Eli's in the last scene of There Will Be Blood. Plainview acts like a total...
Makes perfect sense since CC has released most (or all, haven't kept up) of Soderbergh's titles. This will be incredible tho! One of the best films I saw from last yr - I have the fortune of living close to Manhattan so I saw both parts there in January. It's funny (& prob sappy) but I haven't...
#1 is Jerry Goldsmith. Did the score for my abs favr film, Chinatown. Later worked that influence into LA Confidential. Also did the score for my favr opening credits, Total Recall. Others, no part. order: Ennio Morricone - Once Upon a Time in America, some of the moodiest music ever...
How about a regular anamorphic non-BD release for those of us still stuck in the non-BD realm? Any talk of that happening? S'a bloody shame that Cameron seems to have been so lazy about releasing the film in 16X9 on DVD.
Chinatown, Jake Gittes: "Well, to tell ya the truth, I lied a little." In the Line of Fire: Horrigan: Well, what now? Leary: Do you believe in the nobility of suicide? Horrigan: No, but if you wanna blow your goddam head off, go ahead, be my guest.
Gotta agree with most of the titles & scenes mentioned here. There is one from a TV show (yeah, it's not a movie, I know) that gives me the willies tho: Kenny being killed by the Phonics monkey on South Park. There's just something incredibly disturbing about the way the monkey screams while...
Released when I was 10 but I missed it 1st run so I didn't see it until I was 11 when it played the following summer at the local theatre in my home town. (That place is, incredibly, still open despite a mall-run cineplex only 5 mi away!! I guess there's something to be said for a shorter...
Never bought the orig release of this one, guess I'd watched it too much on VHS. But, since it deals w/2 of my favorite themes (espionage & heists) I'll pick it up. New cover art sux tho... Not likin' it very much... "You worried about your skin?" "Yeah, it covers my body."
Best example of a movie without any soundtrack has to be The China Syndrome. Only music is during the opening credits but the tension of the story requires nothing! Makes me wonder if they planned it that way or saw the rushes & said "Hey, we won't need a soundtrack!"
Heh heh, probably the biggest reason why I'm addicted to Netflix right now is because now I can see all the films that my parents wouldn't let me see as a kid! Then again, most of the films I wanted to see were horror flicks & I was probably too scared to see 'em anyway! I scared VERY easily...
UGH!! NO!! Personally, I think that McT hasn't done a good film since Die Hard (I just can't dig Red October for various reasons). I think Ridley Scott should do this one, he has that knack for grit this film would need. Also, anyone think a cameo at the very end featuring Arnie as an...
Bruce Willis was just too annoying to make the character of McClane as likable as he was in the 1st film. Oh yeah, in light of Keith Paynter's funky signature image, DO NOT WATCH the sequel to Bambi Meets Godzilla. UGH!!!
