    On The Waterfront: Why in widescreen?

    From Here to Eternity is another example of a film from this period that has been matted/unmatted. I wonder which ratio TCM uses for it?

    Warner working on Scorcese & Streisand box sets

    I am not sure if this is a mistake on their part, but Columbia House is accepting advance orders for What's Up, Doc? with a release date of September 3. For those of you that are Columbia House members, go check it out!

    *** Official "WINDTALKERS" Discussion Thread

    I was also disappointed with Windtalkers . To begin with, the movie was centered on Nicolas Cage, not the actual Codetalkers. What was the point of Frances O'Connor's Navy nurse? There were so many war-film cliches and I felt the movie was completely unoriginal. We have the token racist who...

    Significance of tattooes in Raising Arizona?

    I caught the end of Raising Arizona this morning on Encore and a question I have always had about the movie came back to me: What is the significance of the Road Runner-esque tattoes H.I. (Nicholas Cage) and Smalls ("Tex" Cobb) have?

    Setting TiVo to get AOTC trailer and most of Alias?

    Ernest, I feel your pain. My girlfriend refuses to miss a minute of Alias. I will probably set my TiVo to do the same as you: 8:57pm-9:03pm FOX for AOTC 9:03pm-10pm ABC for Alias

    Poll - Should "Angel" get his own thread?

    I would like for the Angel discussion to be moved out of the Eternal Buffy thread. It seems that everyone is quick to bash Buffy and compare Season Six to Angel's superior Season Three. Also, the fact that we will probably never see another Angel/Buffy crossover due to network politics is...

    How long will the Beauty and the Beast Imax be playing?

    I called the closest IMAX theater playing Beauty and the Beast , which was Memphis, Tennessee. They told me it would play through May. My girlfriend and I attended a 1:00 Wednesday showing a few weeks ago and were the only ones in the theater.

    Ally McBeal - finally jumps the shark

    Didn't South Park rip on the "jumping the shark" idea in an episode? I think the Fonz was eaten.

    Abel Gance's Napoleon makes TV debut in the states?

    I was surprised and happy to see Napoleon on TCM last night. I was interested in how the "widescreen" scenes would be handled, as I have never seen Napoleon on television. It appeared that the three parts were placed in a 2:35:1 ratio. Will someone please comment on this (the ratio)?

    Come on HTF junkies, how great is The Abyss:SE. AWESOME!

    I wish that the film was anamorphically enhanced on the DVD. This would have been a purchase instead of a rental for me. However, since this one can be had for $19.99 now, it's a no-brainer. The movie I saw in the theater pales in comparison to the director's cut.
