I've never played any Fallout games before, but have been enjoying this series immensely. Terrific world building, the violence and gore balanced by generally effective pitch-black humor, plenty of action and some intriguing mysteries sprinkled here and there. So far, it's a lot of fun and one...

Agreed with Gary and Bert. Angel looks like a cute show and I'd be definitely down for getting that one at some point, but seeing the Hoppy films in HD is what I'm most excited for.

Amazing tribute to Richard Chamberlain and his work on Dr. Kildare, Randall...great to see you back posting in this thread! Buddy Ebsen Birthday Memorial Happy birthday to the multi-talented Buddy Ebsen. Ebsen (born Christian Ludolf Ebsen, Jr., April 2, 1908 – July 6, 2003), also known...

Colt .45 Three more solid entries in this fine WB western, beautifully presented on Warner Archive’s recently-released Blu-Ray set. 1.13 “Mirage” Colt (big Wayde Preston) finds himself coming to the aid of a small Mexican settlement in the middle of the desert, the only source of water for...

36. Apache Rifles (1964) Closing out this challenge with another of my favorite western stars, Audie Murphy. While none of his films can be called masterpieces of cinema, they can generally be counted on to deliver rock-solid entertainment, and Murphy himself is a reliable action lead. There's...

The Outer Limits S1 (for $34.99, courtesy of the current Kino sale) The UFO Incident (Made for TV movie, plus Gary Gerani's feature-length documentary on the life and music of Billy Goldenberg)

34. The Wild Wild West - 3.11 "The Night of the Cut-Throats" (watched via DVD) This has long been one of my favorite classic TV shows, and I think it still holds up well almost 60 years after it originally aired. This episode eschews the usual steampunk sci-fi and Gothic horror elements that...

I don't think you'll regret it, Bryan!

Great review, Josh, and a nicely balanced perspective on the merits of this show. I'm absolutely loving my set. WAC really hit it out of the park here in the audio/video quality department.

33. Rooster Cogburn (1975) Didn't want to let the challenge end without including at least one entry from the most famous movie cowboy of all: big "Duke" Wayne, one of my favorite actors. I decided to watch this 1975 sequel to True Grit, mainly because it's the only post-1948 western in Wayne's...

32. Seven Men from Now (1956) Former sheriff Ben Stride (Randolph Scott) is on the trail of the men who carried out a Wells Fargo robbery in Silver Springs, stealing $20,000 and killing Stride's wife in the process. Stride, who blames himself for his wife's death, later comes to the aid of John...

31. Day of the Outlaw (1959) Rancher Blaise Starrett (Robert Ryan) is a hard man, one of those who carved out a life in the rough and dangerous Montana Territory, helping make the town of Bitters safe, before settlers and homesteaders started rolling in. Starrett is burned up by hatred for the...

Like you, Gavin, I was a little surprised that no one had reacted to the premiere of this movie yet, so thanks for getting the ball rolling. I enjoyed this for what it was, a piece of disposable action fare given a quality boost from smooth direction by Doug Liman. I liked the sun-kissed Key...

Very cool that you got to meet Clint Walker and have him sign your The Night of the Grizzly Blu, Doug! He's an actor I always have a lot of time for. I also enjoy The Night of the Grizzly, too, despite it's episodic nature. Not perfect, as you say, but a fun watch.

Colt .45 Devoured the first two discs' worth of episodes on Warner Archive's beautiful new Complete Series Blu-Ray set. For more detailed thoughts on the series as a whole so far (basically, I think it's damn good), please see my post in the dedicated Colt .45 thread here. I don't currently have...

Happy 78th Birthday, Barbara Rhoades! Happy birthday to statuesque, 5'10" actress Barbara Rhoades, who brightened up several films and many TV episodes from the late '60s through the early '90s. Obviously her voluptuous figure and saucy demeanor caused her to be frequently cast in sexpot...

Took advantage of MovieZyng's current Warner Archive sale to grab some titles I've had my eye on for a while now: Looney Tunes Collector's Choice Volume 2 Flying Leathernecks Captains of the Clouds Annie Get Your Gun Doctor X King Solomon's Mines Escape from Fort Bravo A Night at the Opera The...

30. The Valley of Gwangi (1969) Cowboys vs. dinosaurs, with great Ray Harryhausen effects and another rousing western score by Jerome Moross - what's not to like? Apparently based on an original idea from famed King Kong special effects wiz Willis O'Brien, and brought to life by Harryhausen and...

So far, there have been a couple in the 24:45 range, but most clock in a little over 25 minutes.

25. Colt .45 - 1.1 "Judgment Day" / 1.2 "A Time to Die" / 1.3 "The $3,000 Bullet" 26. Colt .45 - 1.4 "Gallows at Granite Gap" / 1.5 "Small Man" / 1.6 "Final Payment" 27. Colt .45 - 1.7 "One Good Turn" / 1.8 "Last Chance" / 1.9 "Young Gun" 28. Colt .45 - 1.10 "Rebellion / 1.11 "The Gypsies" /...

I received my Colt .45 Blu-Ray set today, and have hoovered through the first disc (first 6 episodes). Am very pleased with both the quality of the show (a solid lead actor and a good variety of storylines) and with the pristine video quality of the transfers. I concur wholeheartedly with...
