It's come to this.
With current releases of studio catalog titles, inclusive of:
The Color Money
Sea of Love
Scent of a Woman
Cocktail
Ransom
Erin Brockovich
The best quality Blu-ray catalog title turns out to be Ivan Reitman's 1979, low-budget Canadian production, that still works in terms of pleasing its intended audience.
The film, as led by counselor Bill Murray, still has the ability to charm.
But what's interesting here, is that this Lionsgate release, with all of its forced trailers up front, is the best looking current studio catalog release.
Does that tell us anything about Universal and Disney and their corporate mindset toward their libraries?
The only title from the above list that can hold it own against Meatballs is Ransom.
