    Sin City SE to be released just before Christmas

    The Death Row Marv from a few years ago was a McFarlane figure. This new one is made by NECA.

    New Foo Fighters album to be DualDisc

    I went into HMV today to check it out, thought about picking up the Dual Disc version, until I saw the price: $15 Cdn for the regular CD, $45 Cdn for the Dual Disc!!! I know HMV is usually over priced, but 3x the regular CD price!? Stayed with the regular CD. I prefer music in 2 channel anyway...

    The Stanley Kubrick Archives...

    Sorry if this was mentioned elsewhere, but I haven't heard anything about a 2001 re-release. Is it just speculation? This book looks awesome, and I am def saving money by getting it from the UK. 70 pounds UK (about 163 Cdn) vs Amazon.ca's price of $244 cdn. Savings of $80? Plus a few months...

    Did I do something bad?!

    The problem is most likely that your computer is outputting too strong a signal into the inputs of your receiver. Go into your computer/soundcard settings, and look for a volume control there. There will likely be an "output" volume, or "aux out" or "5.1 out" or whatever. It is most likely set...

    KILL BILL: The multiple versions thread (6 from Miramax; Japanese, SEs, etc.)

    The True Romance commentary is definitely him solo. He fills the entire movie with constant talking, only forcing himself to be quiet for the "Sicilian Speech" scene. I love him, he's just like a really over stimulated kid. haha.

    KILL BILL: The multiple versions thread (6 from Miramax; Japanese, SEs, etc.)

    I'm a little fuzzy on where I read that; it was a few years ago. But I do remember him saying he didn't like doing commentaries for any movies he's directed, but would do them for other movies (hence why he did the True Romance commentary). It's a shame, becuase I always find his insights into...

    Any news on Raging Bull:SE? (MERGED THREAD)

    Picked it up yesterday and I can confirm that there is NO booklet with The Last Waltz, just a keepcase and the DVD.

    KILL BILL: The multiple versions thread (6 from Miramax; Japanese, SEs, etc.)

    I doubt there will be any Kill Bill audio commentary with QT, because he has stated before that he will not do commentaries for any of the movies he directs. I'm not sure of his reasoning, but so far he's stuck to it.

    DVD Review HTF Review: The Martin Scorsese Film Collection

    On the bilingualism in Canada: I saw the Raging Bull SE on the shelf in HMV WITH a bilingual cover (French was there, but not very large), but the Box Set (which I purchased), has NO bilingual covers, either outside, or on the inside (ie, my Raging Bull sleeve in English only). Like others, I...

    Raging Bull SE vs. 1-disc releases 2/8

    Yeah, DVD Beaver is comparing the new SE to the OLD MGM version of Raging Bull (which, I believe, is out of print) to the UK PAL version. I would assume the new single disc version is the exact same transfer, just just minus the second disc of extras. Kind of interesting that the new SE...

    Anyone seen the boycott Monster Stuff?

    The problem with this sort of thing is that it isn't entirely like its big bad Monster Cable picking on every little company they can find. According to US Trademark laws, if someone infringes on your Trademark (ie, Monster), you are required by law to challenge the use of the mark. Its not...

    New Axiom Audio subs

    Just saw this over on the Axiom board, figured I'd throw it up here for people to check out. They look pretty interesting... (I can't post a link yet, so just copy and paste) soundstage.com/traveler/traveler.htm

    DVD Review HTF REVIEW: Kill Bill Volume 2

    I got the impression that Budd was the only one of the group that realized the wrongness of what they did; murdering people. Not that he wouldn't do it, rather he just acknowledged to himself that it was wrong, hence his living in squalor and working at a crappy job was a self-inflicted...

    KILL BILL: The multiple versions thread (6 from Miramax; Japanese, SEs, etc.)

    I'm not sure where you read this, but I haven't heard or read anything to support this. Agreeing with what others have posted, and from what I read during production, Kill Bill started out as a shorter movie (original script, before any filming took place), but grew and grew as QT kept filming...

    Technicolor Films on DVD

    I might be wrong about this, but I believe that Dario Argento's Suspiria (1977) was one of the last movies shot in the three strip Techicolor process. The Transfer on the Anchor Bay DVD is gorgeous.

    Alien, Aliens are they worth an upgrade?

    I would definitely recommend upgrading your copy of ALIEN, as the new release has a brand new transfer, which looks remarkable (compared to the previous transfer, anyway). New audio mix too, DTS, if you care about that. Not sure of how many versions of Aliens exist, or which one you have, but...

    The origin of two pistol shooting

    Actually, I think it was Lethal Weapon that popularized holding the gun sideways. Gibson did it because when he held the gun properly, periodically shell casings would hit his arm and burn him, he so held the gun sideways to eject the casings straight down to the ground.

    Great Audio Commentaries

    Tarantino doing a full commentary on true Romance. If you're a fan of him at all, you'll love this commentary. Once he gets started... All the Evil Dead ones are great too.

    the price of dvd's in canada

    I've found a good online place to shop for dvd's is cdplus.com. They always seem to have the best prices around, and shipping is cheap. Buy a couple at a time and you're guaranteed to save money. Futureshop is alright, but I find they sell out quickly of a lot of titles that are on sale (other...
