Yes, the security tape issue is really annoying. As for snap case floaters, I guess I've been lucky all these years. While I've never been a champion of snapper case hubs (and loathe snappers in general), I think I've only received one or two snappers with loose discs inside - out of hundreds...
The Executioner's Song (1982) with Tommy Lee Jones and Rosanna Arquette. A classic TV movie that was actually released theatrically in Europe.
Off The Minnesota Strip (1980) with Mare Winningham in one of her first starring roles.
Bad Ronald (1974) I've never seen this one but it seems to...
Hi Jesse - welcome to the forum!
The Pioneer release of Trees Lounge is one of the first used DVDs I bought a few years ago. I would highly recommend seeking out this edition; it's definitely worth the extra cost, particularly if you're a Buscemi fan. His commentary is low-key but very...
Paul -- I've got it and will be happy to email it to you if you want. (BTW, it's based on the black & red graphic/photo montage used for the old LD release.) I noticed you don't have an email link in your profile. Just email me if you're interested (the email link above is valid), and I'll...
Lighter fluid is generally great for removing sticky residue (and even the stickers that leave it) without causing a stain on most surfaces. First, though, try a little of the fluid on the inside "board" of the case's cloth, to make sure it won't stain.
Before feeling too put-out, consider those of us who shelled out $180 for the original Director's Premium limited edition of Koyaanisqatsi, only to find it packaged in a plain white paper sleeve (albeit a sleeve signed by Godfrey Reggio...) No cover art, no case, even. (I've since gotten custom...
I've suggested Convoy to Anchor Bay on a few occasions, even pointing out to them how avid the cult around this film has become. On the other hand, most of the European DVD releases of the film have been by Warner Home Video/Studio Canal, so Warner may indeed be the one to put this out in the...
Inconsiderate neighbors who keep their (barking) dogs outside 24/7. Thick-headedness, narrow-mindedness and fixed attitudes. People who state opinion as fact - e.g., "That movie/song/concert was the worst piece of crap...blah blah blah" They really mean simply: "I hated it!" Same negative...
Okay, here goes (starting with the longest, as clocked by me and noted in my video database): The Sorrow and the Pity (250) Lawrence of Arabia (227) Woodstock (D.C.) (225) Nixon (D.C.) (212) Das Boot (209) Andrei Rublev (205) JFK (D.C.) (205) Malcolm X (201) The Godfather, Part II...
I got the whole collection, plus a DVD-specific episode summary guide, from The Twilight Zone Video & DVD Store for just under $520.00 shipped:

I can't comment in any depth on the transfer, since my setup isn't reference quality; though I will say it looks much better than the old VHS edition I had. For what it's worth, the disc is o.a.r. and anamorphic. One thing I do want to point out is that the version on the DVD is the 120m...
Here's a group of o.o.p. editions, some of which are moderately collectible, some of which are not; most are from my own collection: Arabian Nights (Image) Army of Darkness (Anchor Bay L.E.) Beatles Ultimate DVD Collection (MPI 4 disc box set) Beauty and the Beast (Criterion) Bob Roberts...
Night At The Roxbury...inane but irresistable.
Romy And Michele's High School Reunion...ditto.
The Long Kiss Goodnight...actually, the humor in this one is great and nothing to be embarrassed about enjoying; but those action sequences are so ridiculously over-the-top they'd make Jerry...
Well, I'll second Lunatics: A Love Story (1991). It's a cool little offbeat flick. I can't recall the original studio/dist. for this (Columbia? Orion?), but I could really see Anchor Bay doing it.
I'll give a strong third vote for The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane (1976). Since the last...
