    Sir Maurice Micklewhite turns 90 March 14th

    https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/michael-caine-i-became-an-actor-to-kiss-girls/ I didn't have any problems accessing the link. Interesting read with great last line. Especially so after just watching Kino Lorber's 4K THE ITALIAN JOB and Imprint's two-bluray-set of THE EAGLE HAS LANDED.

    Philip K Dick distilled THAT childhood nightmare with his 10-page short story in the December 1954 issue of the Magazine of Fantasy and Science Fiction--- 'The Father-Thing'. I first read it years after when I was eleven. Even today, decades later, I will not read it a second time. Philip K...

    Blu-ray Review A Few Words About A few words about…™ Invaders from Mars – in Blu-ray

    Glenn got his disc. "The disc of the year has finally arrived and it’s 1000% worth the wait. William Cameron Menzies’ flight into schoolboy paranoia now really looks like it ought to hang in the Louvre; the entire show is inspired Modern Art. When Martians conduct a brain-snatching takeover of...

    Pre-Order The Hallelujah Trail (Special Edition) (1965) (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    Glenn has posted his take on The Hallelujah Trail --- "John Sturges’ Road Show comedy western has more in common with 1941 than The Magnificent Seven, but Kino has MGM’s new remaster and the visual result is spectacular. The Ultra Panavision 70 epic is still a favorite of fans of out-of-control...

    Thanks Nelson. I just screen-grabbed images off the Zavvi website. They are very good at posting front and back images of their products. And I nabbed the spline images off their Universal Monsters steelbook pictures. I've used MegaDiscStore on Ebay. I purchased my UHD 6-disc replacement case...

    Just a regular inkjet printer, in my case an HP Envy Photo 7155 now. My earlier and cheaper HP Deskjet 340 did a fine job too printing the cover art I downloaded. For paper, I use glossy Photo Paper. Nothing too expensive. Right now, I'm using Pen+GEAR's 8.5"x 11" Glossy Photo Paper (from...

    Nelson, you prompted me to try my hand at this sort of thing too. $20 for RonyaSoft's CD DVD Label Maker plus scans off my Zavvi box set led to this. Try not to look too hard for the seams.
