    Does anyone else watch color Blu-rays in black-and-white?

    It is for this reason I actually prefer to watch the Star Wars Prequels in Black and White.... Also makes them feel "older" than the original trilogy. To take this a step further, I've enjoyed watching them as silent films and just listening to John Williams in the background, but that is...

    The Quiet Man - BD Release 01-22-13

    Any news on this? I'm itching to watch this, but I refuse to watch the DVD. I always get the urge to watch this after watching McClintock!...maybe I should just quit watching that one, problem solved. Speaking of which, any Maureen O'Hara on blu would make me a happy man. Rio Grande is nice...

    Films that NEED commentary tracks

    Maybe I'm just stuck in the past. I love the history behind the old films from historians and film professors. Feels like I'm in a class learning about classic hollywood. I especially enjoy those commentaries by: Eddie Mueller Alain Silver James Ursini Glenn Erikson Drew Casper Richard...

    Films that NEED commentary tracks

    Lately I have enjoyed listening to the commentary tracks in my DVD collection more so than actually watching the movies, especially my film noir and classic film collection. I'm sure this is just a phase. But as I browse my collection, there are some films that I truly wish had a commentary...

    USHE Press Release: E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial

    This. This was an excellent documentary. I burned it to DVD from the laserdisc years ago, but was hoping to have it included on the Blu-ray. I guess I'll be tossing the inlcuded DVD/Digital Copy and putting this in it's place. I watch this doc as often as I watch the movie, it is that good.

    Alfred Hitchcock Collection Box in 2012!

    Any word on special features yet? Hoping all the films have commentary tracks this time around. That is one thing I wish the Masterpiece Collection had. I am pretty content with that collection, while I may upgrade a few of my favorite titles to Blu. I don't think I need them all on Blu, but...

    Just picked up Marlene (Kino) and You Must Remember This: The Warner Bros. Story Any other new documentaries out there? Maybe exclusive on Blu-ray releases? Also noticed in the list, the Jack Lemmon: Man Behind the Magic doc is actually a seperate disc in the Jack Lemmon Film Collection...

    Finding LOTS of defective HD-DVDs...

    Is it just a coincidence that my forbidden planet froze at the exact same point just after the swim? Just started checking my discs. 'Forbidden Planet' failed, 'The Cowboys' played through fine. If this continues, WB is going to have to do something about it. Just hoping discs from other studios...
