    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - The Abyss -- in 4k UHD

    Thanks for everyone's input. I have a question - WHY is this release up to $99.99 on Amazon? Availability issues? Thanks for any insight.

    Marlowe (2023)

    Let's face it, this screams, CHINATOWN! Regarding marketing for older people, absolutely! I was 25 years old when Chinatown was released. I'm now 73. I'll be there for this and look forward to it. But, it has big shoes to fill. I just hope that there is more than just 90 minutes of...

    Dune (1984)

    In regards to my comments on the "Spicediver" fan edit on the recent Koch release, it appears to be a 720p upres of the 480p Spicediver edit. It is very watchable, but certainly can't compare to the official blu-ray releases. But, the additional scenes properly integrated into the movie make...

    Dune (1984)

    I'm surprised that no one has mentioned this new, massive version of Lynch's DUNE from Koch Films that was just recently released: https://shop.kochfilms.de/de/dune-der-wuestenplanet-ultimate-edition-4k-uhd-5-blu-rays-exklusiv-koch-films-shop. Koch won't ship this to the States, but as I'm...

    Blu-ray Review A Few Words About While we wait for A few words about...™ Invaders from Mars - in 4k UHD & Blu-ray

    Thank you so much. Sooo, do the music stems exist somewhere and with this restoration would there be any chance for a true soundtrack album apart from whatever currently exists which is lifted from the movie itself? A true soundtrack album has been a lifelong dream of mine as I was one of the...

    UHD Review Star Trek: The Original 4 Movie Collection UHD Review

    I experienced the same thing. I was able to snag the last copy they had from a Best Buy in the next town over from me and will pick it up tomorrow. I cancelled the Amazon order.

    A Few Words About A few words about…™ Star Wars: A New Hope — in 4k UHD Blu-ray

    Went off the Lucas reservation a long time ago. My collection looks like the one above. I have my Harmy and Silver Screen versions of the OT to keep me happy. Even 4K of the Special Editions is not enough to get me back in.

    Blu-ray Review Dead of Night (1945) Blu-ray Review

    I just received the new Region A Blu-Ray release with Tim Lucas' commentary. I purchased it primarily for Lucas' commentary and am glad to have it. However, in my opinion it is not as pleasurable a viewing experience as the UK Region B Blu-Ray release that came out, I believe, in 2014. This...

    Anyone join the DISNEY MOVIE CLUB?

    I HAD to join this stupid club to get a copy of RETURN TO OZ in Blu-Ray. Just fulfilled my obligation and probably won't buy anymore titles until Disney gets off its ass and releases more live-action stuff, particularly in Blu-Ray. I've given up on them releasing more classic short animation...

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ 2001: A Space Odyssey -- in BD & HD

    I saw 2001 in Cinerama at the Uptown Theater in Washington D.C. in 1968. My first viewing was cancelled as DC went up in flames following the assination of MLK. But, it was nonetheless a transformative experience for this 19 year old. I was fortunate to have been able to see it at the same...

    "The Alamo"s Status?

    Just got back to Florida from New Zealand after 8 months away. After living over there with this thread the whole time, I immediately dug out my road show laserdisc and created 2 DL DVDs. They look pretty good - not DVD quality, but very watchable on my Pioneer Elite 60" plasma. It will have to...
