Like when they screen "George Lucas's original Star Wars!" :biggrin:

Thanks for the link, but unless I missed it, I don't see anything in there that says if it's the original 1979 cut being shown or the 2003 alternate cut.

Can anyone confirm which version they have re-released? Regal app shows a run time of 2h 05m, which does not line up with either the '79 or '03 cuts. I'm guessing there may be some sort of intro?

If I'm not mistaken, this is the last of the Warner-controlled Hitchcock titles to make the leap to Blu-ray.

As a technical exercise, I wonder if some sort of AI technology could be used to re-saturate the colors, but while it would make for a nice bonus feature, I wouldn't want them to alter the movie.

Since, unlike a lot of recent Paramount 4k releases, this one includes a Blu-Ray, perhaps the Blu-Ray will include the unrated version? I just recently got the Shout! edition, so I'll also be skipping this one.

Ah, for the memory of a time when this material was shocking. It's practically family entertainment these days!

Wild at Heart, maybe?

My statement was only pertaining to "my local Target," not the entire online community.

Paramount sometimes licenses stuff to Down Under label Imprint, so I wouldn't be surprised if Muriel's Wedding turns up there someday.

If physical media doesn't have the words "Taylor Swift" on the cover, my local Target doesn't seem to carry it, so this really won't be much of a change.

Dollars-wise, MSRP pricing has remained pretty consistent: Blu-ray new releases had MSRPs of $39.95 in 2008 and they have MSRPs of $39.95 in 2024. If you're looking at this from an inflationary standpoint, the pricing should be closer to $60 by now. So, the price has actually gone down. From a...

Got this from a Chat GPT, so it may or may not be correct: A VHS analyzer is a device used to analyze and diagnose issues with VHS tapes and VCRs (video cassette recorders). It is a tool that can provide detailed information about the quality of the video and audio signals on a VHS tape, as well...

He was one of the NTIs. The funny one.

He really did get shot out of a canon repeatedly! It was very traumatic for him. We shouldn't laugh. :huh:

Usually, when OJ was on screen, he was being pummeled, which is why I'm still able to laugh at them. Naked Gun director David Zucker had a good quote about OJ yesterday, "His acting was a lot like his murdering: He got away with it, but no one believed him."

Well, you can't fix stupid. :cheers:

So... Since his video is in 2-D, I guess we're just taking his word for it that it works?

"Five More Nights at Freddy's" or "Another Five Nights at Freddy's" would both be better titles.

I can't judge young viewers too harshly as I don't get a lot of the things they find entertaining.

Outsized, entirely performative reactions to issues are, sadly, what passes for discourse these days.

True Lies was already being accused of misogyny and racism back in 1994, so it's not something people just recently woke up to, unless they weren't paying attention back then. I was somewhat surprised nobody (not even Jamie Lee Curtis) mentioned the controversial aspects of the movie in the...

The last sentence of that Hollywood Reporter article was the most surprising: For its part, Paramount is high on Scott, and has enlisted him to direct an upcoming Bee Gees biopic. Congratulations to anyone who wagered on "Bee Gees biopic" to be an upcoming Ridley Scott joint.

Could be interesting if it's an actual adaptation of the book, rather than a remake of the Schwarzenegger movie that took the title and a bit of the premise from the book but not much else.

I wonder who they'll cast to play the shoe?

The UK release from Studio Canal is a bit more expensive but includes the 1982 cut in 4K as well. The Lionsgate release appears to only have it in 1080p.

I'm guessing he would only be serving in a writing and producing capacity. If he's planning to direct as well, the odds are slim that we'll ever see this released in our lifetimes.

I'm betting the included Blu-Ray will be the old Chinatown disc, not one based on the new master.

Hopefully this will be the original release version, not the 2003 Director's Cut.

Another beloved character landing in Public Domain Purgatory, eh?
