Watched Neverending Story blu yesterday. Not sure but I think it's a 2013 release. I was thinking about its 4k potential but I dunno...it's loaded with dense process shots and all those swirling smoke effects. Might look worse in 4k. This old blu itself looks pretty good though.
Hear hear. She was just trying to get attention for herself. If anything, the endless internet pundits of Youtube today are 10X worse than the Pauline Kaels of this world. And that's all they want--clicks.
I have the big blu-ray set from ages ago. Personally I would love to see the first movie on 4k. It's a time-honored classic and deserves the royal treatment. But the rest are just...sequels. And don't have a lot of replay-ability for me, and sounds like a lot of other forum members.
We'll see...
I was always rooting for Thunderbean to get this title, but Kino will be just as good. I don't know why this movie, particularly, has been such a whale all these years.
Honestly, I don't go fancy. I just keep mine in regular comic book bags. The steelbook fits in fine and you can wrap it around. I also use it for dvds that I've had signed.
The Exorcist 4K packaging was so bad...in fact, I was going to a fan event right after the 4K came out and I was gonna have Linda Blair sign it, but then I thought--nah. She signed this instead:
The bigger the company, the less chance there is for someone to really care about its assets. That's why Disney doesn't know wtf to do with Star Wars and Marvel right now.
I've actually been wondering about that for years. Thank you for clearing that up. In the past when this came up, the forum members were convinced that the negative had turned to pink, we didn't know much more. I applaud your efforts and hope this progresses.
This comes out in a few days. Do you think I should hold out hope for a 5 movie collection? They seemed to have no problem putting out the 4-movie pack a few months ago, even tho' Disney is not known for compilation sets. Has anyone heard of an eventual 5-film collection?
I think the whole movie was miscast except for Juanita Hall. And the obvious problem there is they didn't let her do her own vocals, which just kills "Bali Hai." Her own vocals would have been just fine.
I don't like Brazzi at all; may I suggest Louis Jourdan?? I don't see him playing...
I just realized they actually have some of the dvds behind glass and I never look in there because it's mostly old tv shows that I don't need. Maybe they hid Hunger Games in there...
My local BestBuy has basically become an appliance store. They already have no dvds. Not even the Disney 100th steelbooks. There is another BestBuy about 10 miles from here that still carries dvds but there is only one long row of shelves and it is getting sparse, they are very obviously not...
