Anyone else heard about this? From Variety: "This came in Monday. The lawyers have spoken and Tartan USA has been closed. NOTICE OF PUBLIC FORECLOSURE SALE On May 19, 2008, at 10:00 a.m. at Greenberg Glusker, LLP, 1900 Ave. of the Stars, Ste. 2100, Los Angeles, CA 90067, Palisades Media...
I'm going to be getting a new TV soon (Samsung 61" HL-S6188W RP HDTV) and my brother's telling me that, in addition to the surge protector/UPS I already have my stuff hooked to (Monster UPS 500), I should invest in a power conditioner. Now, I understand what the purpose of such a device is but...
I'm a definite newbie to HDTV, so I need some advice. I'm planning to upgrade from my 32" Sony Vega CRT to some kind of HDTV after the end of the year. I've been checking out what's available and am leaning toward getting a rear-projection DLP set (I prefer something that can be moved fairly...
...but are they any good? I've seen (and own) the first two and like them both but I've never seen the last two -- GUNS OF THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN and THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN RIDE! -- before. Opinions?
From DVDFile.com "Just in from MGM Home Entertainment are the full specs for their early 2004 catalog and TV on DVD releases. MGM will debut special editions of five Ingmar Bergman classics on February 10th: Persona, Shame, The Passion of Anna, Hour of the Wolf and The Serpent's Egg...

I saw this at Best Buy and considered picking it up as a blind purchase but thought I'd check here first... The packaging makes it look quite good (plus I love Alistair Maclean) but I can't find anyone who's actually seen it. How bad can a movie with Pierce Brosnan, Patrick Stewart and...
Wasn't Miramax supposedly working on a Special Edition of THE ENGLISH PATIENT for release this year? I vaguely recall reading about this somewhere a while ago but can't find anything. Anybody know? :confused:
Check this out: www.myimax.com I'm filing this under "If it sounds too good to be true it probably is" but was curious what anyone here might have to say about such a thing. How could the picture possibly look decent? Is it possible this could work? :confused:
I'm a big fan of David Mamet's work and have enjoyed all of his movies (though I thought STATE & MAIN was overrated). Just re-watched THE SPANISH PRISONER last night. Great movie, but I have a question -- At one point in the film the following exchange of dialogue occurs between Joseph...
Okay, so about two years ago I buy a copy of the original HBO Home Video DVD release of Sidney Lumet's Q & A. It didn't say anywhere on the case that it was widescreen but I figured "what the hell, it'll probably never see the light of day in OAR anyhow." I get back to my apartment, pop it in...
Anchor Bay has done an exceptional job of releasing the films of Werner Herzog. If for no other reason they will forever be my favorite DVD studio. However, does anyone know who owns the rights to Les Blank's documentary about the making of Fitzcaraldo , Burden of Dreams ? I have always heard...
I just picked up THE OTHERS at CC ($16.99) and saw this one next to it. I love haunted house movies (and ghost stories in general) but I intentionally missed this one when it was on TV (I cannot abide commercials! :) ).
I'm suspicious of any "horror" story produced specifically for the...
Just a quick question for anyone in the know: Is MGM planning a Get Shorty Special Edition any time soon? I was thinking of picking this one up today but will wait if something better is coming. Thanks! :)
Hallelujah! Finally, one of my all-time favorite horrible movies is coming to DVD! John Boorman's brilliant mega-turkey EXORCIST II: THE HERETIC will be released August 6th according to DVDFile.com.
Also coming on the same day is another favorite (this one is actually good ) -- THE WOLFEN...
I'm a big fan of John Frankenheimer but this one has thus-far escaped me. Anyone here know whether it's any good (both the movie itself and the DVD)? It's only about $10.00 at Fry's and I was thinking of picking it up?
Curious about three of my favorite movies:
Criminal Law -- (1988) dir. Martin Campbell, starring Gary Oldman and Kevin Bacon
Blue Steel -- (1990) dir. Kathryn Bigelow, starring Jamie Leigh Curtis and Ron Silver
State of Grace -- (1990) dir. Phil Joanou, starring Gary Oldman, Ed Harris, and...
Ever since I first saw this movie in the theater back in 1987 I have been puzzled about something...
During the jewelry store robbery at the beginning: What's the point of the one guy spraying shaving cream into the security camera lens? I mean, it would make sense if he managed to do it...
I've been pretty impressed with the Dario Argento movies Anchor Bay has been releasing but I've never seen any of Michele Soavi's stuff. Looks like AB is putting these two out on 2/19 and I was wondering if they're worth the money. Any opinions?
I'm a big David Lynch fan (I'm not really big, average size really... :D ) but I'm not sure whether I'm willing to put out the $10.00 per month their asking for membership on his web-site. Anyone out there who's already bit for it care to comment? Thanks in advance.
Just wondering if anyone has heard about a DVD release of this one. I know MGM holds the rights (they've already released it as part of their "Midnite Movies" series on VHS).
Since Anchor Bay has already released QUATERMASS 2 and QUATERMASS & THE PIT it seems a shame not to have the first...
This is the only one of the Mad Max movies I haven't seen. I thought the first was okay (great action scenes but somewhat dull otherwise) and THE ROAD WARRIOR was, of course, pure undiluted greatness but I just never got around to the third. Opinions?

I'm especially interested in this one after reading the book (which is exellent, BTW).
Personal trivia: My dad served as a clerk under Lt. Gen. Hal Moore (at the time, LTC Moore) at Fort Benning, GA in 1963-1965. He was...
Seems like everything Woody Allen's ever directed is on DVD now except HUSBANDS & WIVES, which is arguably his last really great movie. Anyone know when (or if) this will be coming out?
Okay: I used to be able to go to http://www.quicktime.com/trailers
Is there some kind of setting I can change or something I need to do to be able to save these things again? Would I be able to if I bit the bullet and paid for Quicktime Pro?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
