    Anyone seen the movie "Clue?"

    I wonder if someone told Sony "Get a clue," and they thought "That's a great idea!"

    Aliens Expanded (Documentary) (Blu-Ray)

    I hope if there will be a non-swag edition later on.

    Scott Atwell Star Trek Discussion thread (Series and Films)

    Here's something worth noting that's tangential to Star Trek: https://www.slashfilm.com/1567343/one-of-most-important-undersung-figures-in-star-trek-history-has-died-john-trimble/

    Press Release PHE Press Release: South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (1999) (4k UHD Combo)

    Shouldn't they change the title to: "South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut (and now more highly resolved...)" ?

    What's On Your Mind?

    That's the annoying thing about Life. It never stops trying to kill you.

    Deadpool & Wolverine (2024)

    I've never quite grokked the point of a trailer announcing a trailer.

    Civil War (2024)

    Trying to define what science fiction (or, really, any genre) is or isn't is a mug's game. It's one of those things that no matter how you approach it, it doesn't end well. Damon Knight, who was a notable SF writer, editor, and historian, is usually attributed for the quote defining science...

    Civil War (2024)

    That depends on how you define what is or isn't "political". Caveat: I haven't seen the film yet. That said, I've been rather struck by some reviews that take Garland to task as, basically, a "coward" (one review I read actually used that word) for not being willing to delve into the causes of...

    What's left, unreleased on 4k, that you would pay $50 to own on day one?

    Sure, and we've seen enough instances of people deciding to wait for reviews to see if a 4K release would be worth upgrading for. Of course, another problem with Ronald's question is the whole "Day One" thing. I suspect that very few people who say, "Day One purchase!" are simply expressing...

    What's left, unreleased on 4k, that you would pay $50 to own on day one?

    Exactly that: you didn't ask the question in a way that would get you the response you wanted. I'm not sure you really thought through just what it was you were asking. The thing is, I presented a list of 13 specific (let's ignore the "anything by" bits) movies that I'd be willing to spend $50...

    What's left, unreleased on 4k, that you would pay $50 to own on day one?

    Too many to list. And it's hard to say without knowing whether the quality of the elements available make a 4K release worth it. The following would be at the top of my list, chosen mostly for the cinematography and outstanding use of color (which HDR could help enormously with): Barry Lyndon...
