    The Fog (1980) 4K UHD mini review

    Bryan - I did not know that standard editions had been released as I was referring to the 3 disc limited editions as you correctly recognized. Thanks for letting me know although my wallet will hate you for it :D Regards

    The Wizard of Oz 4K UHD 80th Anniversary

    Not quite on topic (count me in for the UHD release!), I just wanted to say that I really liked the distinctive artwork that Criterion had for its laserdisc releases. The one for Oz as posted earlier is particular favorite alongside likes of Blade Runner and The Third Man! Can’t explain but...

    The Fog (1980) 4K UHD mini review

    Happy to hear that the presentations are good! No doubt that these will be released here in the USA eventually but has anybody heard of a timeline? These are OOP and are commanding high prices on places like eBay. Bring on all of John Carpenter’s work in UHD is what I say :D Regards

    How much are your Blu rays worth?

    I have several of the titles listed as I’m sure most other folks here do and no intention of selling them. The top two are the Hellraiser set (unwrapped) and The Third Man (Criterion). The latter is amongst my absolute favorite films of all time although I watch the Region B release most...

    A Few Words About A few words about…™ Alien — in 4k UHD Blu-ray

    As has happened before, I was going to just spot check the 4K on my 65’ Sony XBR (my projector setup is only 1080P) but with a very quality release (except lack of Atmos is disappointing) of a movie I love I ended up watching the entire movie on from the discovery of the Space Jockey - Simply...

    Song of the South

    If “The Birth of A Nation” can be released with its controversial content then why can’t “Song of The South” ? And if they cut out the crows sequence from “Dumbo” then that is utterly ridiculous as it’s critical part of this wonderful movie which is already lean and mean. Looking at the...

    Pre-Order The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada (2005) (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    Spot on observation by Reggie W above:thumbs-up-smiley: as far as I’m concerned. Great movie and really happy to see it get a Region A release - never thought it would happen unless Criterion or some other boutique label got its hands on it. Regards

    Buster Keaton Collection: Volume I (The General/Steamboat Bill Jr.) from Cohen 5/14

    I am definitely a fan of Buster Keaton but will sit out this release as I have the Eureka release from region B which features these from a 4K restoration - they look fantastic! Regards

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ For a Few Dollars More - in Blu-ray

    Absolutely agree on the sense of humor - it is truly one of the great aspects of this board. Some of it’s obvious and some very subtle but in majority of cases put together with intelligence and love for this hobby of ours. Regards

    Count me for the first two only unless there is some great deal on the box set. Personally love the Nolan Batman universe Regards

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ Bend of the River - in Blu-ray

    That is so disappointing to read - I was hoping that we might finally be getting a decent release for this classic. Just have to stick with the dvd until further notice Regards

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ For a Few Dollars More - in Blu-ray

    Got my copy yesterday and totally agree in that this is a wonderful release. Put in the blu Ray intending to sample it but ended up sampling the entire movie! If Kino can go back and make “A Fistful of Dollars” and “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly” look consistent with this release ;) And get us...

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ Road to Singapore - in Blu-ray

    Yes lots of Bob Hope but one I particularly hope for is The Cat And The Canary but any more will be great! Regards

    A Few Words About A few words about...™ For a Few Dollars More - in Blu-ray

    I had already decided not to buy this based upon the previous performance of Kino Lorber on their releases of the first and last parts of the Leone’s Dollar trilogy but given RAH’s stamp of approval and high praise indeed then I am left with no option for yet another visit, on a different disc...
