    Hey, Columbia, I've never seen this show, but I want to, and I'd like to start from the very beginning and watch each episode in the correct order!

    Films That Personally Offend You

    "Mission Impossible 2" and "Mercury Rising". I have seen worse movies, but I never, ever got the sense that these filmmakers were even *trying* to make a good film. "Ulee's Gold". I have never walked out of a film before, but I wanted to walk out of the theater within the first 10 minutes. In...

    OAR - Are We Winning the War?

    I flipped on Encore today and they showed Pearl Harbor in widescreen, 2.35:1 format! It wasn't the credits, either. It was in the middle of the film. I also flipped on the Action West channel, and 633 Squadron was shown in OAR! Both channels are owned ny Starz! I am shocked that these channels...

    Things that bug you about your favorite movies...

    Some of these are my favorites, some are not. (and some may have been mentioned before) First of all, logic/scientific errors and bad dialogue do not bother me very much...because sometimes I do not even notice them :frowning: Yes, I am an idiot... Home Alone: Why does Kevin need the...

    Misleading Trailers?

    Reign of Fire - the TV ads told us that the movie would take place in the year 2084, but 95% of the movie takes place in the year 2020. Not a single frame of film takes place in 2084, nor is it even mentioned! :angry:

    Misleading Trailers?

    Face/Off - The original teaser gave me the impression that John Travolta would be the only one to change his appearance. I never thought this would be a "body swap" movie (so to speak), I thought there would be two Nic Cages walking around for 3/4 of the movie.

    Intersecting Stories. Please recommend

    Crimes and Misdemeanors I'm only recommending the Martin Landau subplot. The Woody Allen subplot didn't do anything for me.

    They're coming back! Free Enterprise sequal in the works!

    Free Enterprise made me feel guilty that I haven't seen Logan's Run (I've seen bits a pieces of it). I loved FE, I'l looking forward to this.

    Let theaters compete !!!! I hate it when a good movie shows at a crappy theater...

    Speaking of Lafayette, Indiana, here are the problems I had watching movies I had at the Goodrich Eastside 10: Mystery Science Theater 3000 The Movie: in the middle of the movie, the film stops, and restarts a few minutes later, at the beginning of the next reel. I went to see the movie again...

    Titanic DVD for $8.99?!

    IIRC, the Titanic DVD is non-anamorphic.

    Billy Wilder DVD Poll

    I would buy "Witness For The Prosecution" if Criterion re-released the film. (The R1 bare-bones DVD has one of the worst covers I have ever seen.)

    Underrated/Overlooked TV series

    Family Guy (I am going to get the R1 Season 1 set) I'm starting to watch Andy Richter. I have seen 24 from the very beginning. I only watched the (edited) pilot of Firefly :frowning: but I plan to see the 2 hour pilot.

    What are your picks of the worst 2002 release films you saw ?

    Insomnia: Loved Memento, was bored by this film. Reign of Fire: Promising beginning, but this film feels as if it had a disastrous test screening and it was hacked down, cutting a lot of footage necessary for continuity (the ads say the film takes place in the year 2084, but the film mostly...
