Huge POTA fanatic here who loves the original quintology, warts and all. I was especially grateful to have the original cut of Conquest to watch; I think the grimmer ending better served the evolution of the series and the attitudes the apes had towards humans in Battle. And since the Burton...

Thanks for the head's up. They do indeed have the mesh screen you described and an initial eyeballing of the sprockets didn't SEEM to reveal any signs of shrinkage (but my eyes are not a microscope, lol), but I'll certainly follow your advice. I ran them back in the mid-90s when I transferred...

I've had outstanding results transferring home movies with a little work. In a dark room (duh) I project the films onto a white screen with the image no larger than 10"x10" and capture the clip using a Sony EX1. Since the Sony's recording at 24p and the film was shot at 16 FPS, by running the...

I have that same issue! Spent many hours soaking in the 3D goodness. :) I have a dozen or so pairs of glasses lying around from various comics and such.

Lol, yes I do, so far as to pick up a copy of the huge Taschen book on the making of the film (which is an absolutely incredible set. The book on the making of the film is very well written and I learned that much of what I "knew" about the film's production--like setting a world's record for...

Keanu Reeves in Much Ado About Nothing. The Shining - The entire cast (except for Barry Nelson and Joe Turkel). Yes, I know I just kicked the hornet's nest on that one.:eek: And regarding O'Neal's performance in Barry Lyndon, I remember reading an interview with Kubrick where he said his intent...

A gorgeous 1080p restoration of Song is readily available on Internet Archive. Could it be improved? Undoubtedly, but I suspect that this version is the best we'll see. Now if we could only get a UHD version of Dr. Syn with a bevy of extras, I'd be QUITE pleased.

Imprint from Australia released Audrey Rose in March with a slew of different extras. Apparently, that version is a significant improvement over the Twilight Time release across the board and my guess is that Arrow is using the same scan. as Imprint. Since Imprint's version is a pricier import...

The blu-ray of Monty Python's Flying Circus looks outstanding, far better than I expected owing to the lower video tech used in the late 60s/early 70s when it was shot. But considering the fanatical fan base for the series, it was a pretty much guaranteed success. I think the question for...

Night Stalker WKRP In Cincinnati Monty Python's Flying Circus Arrested Development Dead Like Me Simpsons Millennium Lost In Space Six Million Dollar Man Mission: Impossible Twilight Zone Star Trek TOS In Search Of Wild Wild West Supernatural More than I intended to list and not as many as I...

VERY happy to see this! Saw it a few times in the theatre and I still have a bunch of the promo materials from its original home video release, including the limited "I :emoji_hearts: Toxic Waste" t-shirt. Day one for sure.

VHS: Slap Shot Beta: Let It Be Laserdisc: Fright Night Bluray: Blast From The Past UHD: Zombie I worked at a video store from '84-'94 and so acquired a literal roomful of tapes, posters and promo items (including a full MCA Video BTTF skateboard that I can't find actually existing anywhere, so...

Get Crazy (1982). Never thought this would drop on blu ray and certainly not with all the great extras. Psychomania (1973) FM (1978) Melody (1971) Dawn of the Dead Cannes Cut (in 4k!) (1978)

Definitely agree with The 4th Man, especially if includes the commentary track from the DVD. And I pray that Criterion releases the TCM cut of Pat Garrett, the best cut in my opinion. Daughter of the Mind (1969) Bigfoot: The Mysterious Monster (1975) One of the better Bigfoot docs from the...

Love this movie and looking forward to what is hopefully a decent transfer. Disappointed (but not surprised) there are no extras but would have loved it if they had included the scenes from the TV version as extras. I enjoyed Water World but felt the Ulysses cut made it a much better film...
