    Big Shakeup With MST3K on DVD

    Apparently Rhino will no longer release Mystery Science Theater 3000 on DVD. Instead, Shout! Factory is taking over. The article is mostly about how everybody at Shout! loves the show, but here's an interesting bit at the end of the article: Are they just being overly optimistic, or are they...

    Sorting TV Shows by Creator

    I'm getting to the point where I'm going to need new shelves for my DVDs, and I'm thinking about reorganizing my TV collection by creator/show runner (I already sort movies by director, so this is just the next logical step). Now this might sound a bit odd at first, but doesn't it make just as...

    DVD Planet 20% Off Sale

    I hope everyone's saved some dough from the DDD sale, because now DVD Planet is having one. Code -- 20OFFSALE. Just be careful, 'cause it's a single use coupon. One word: Criterion.

    PBS/TLC/History Channel shows that need DVD releases

    It seems that one area that hasn't caught on to the idea of TV on DVD is the educational channels. There are tons of great series that haven't made it to DVD. Those that do are often released piecemeal, and the ones that get season sets are often outrageously priced (Mythbusters, I'm looking at...

    Go Team Venture! -- Season Two

    Pretty decent episode, though the pre-credit sequence doesn't entirely make sense in light of the revelation at the end. (And for that matter, were the new credits just a psych-out?) The one thing that disappointed me was the subplot with the villains. Towards the middle of the episode it...

    What to do with Lobby Cards?

    More and more studios are including reproduction lobby cards with DVDs. So far this year, I've found them in Midnight Cowboy, the Sony Cary Grant set, The Searchers, Pinky, The Poseidon Adventure, and The Towering Inferno. It seems a shame to keep them in the DVD cases where I'll only look at...

    DDD - Up to 45% Off Criterion Titles

    As part of their continuing effort to keep film fans poor, Deep Discount DVD is having another sale on Criterion discs. The first few pages have the biggest mark downs, around 45% off, but even the less steeply discounted titles about as cheap as what you'd pay during a 20% off sale. And best...

    Swapping FS for WS at Best Buy

    I recently bought The Ice Harvest at Best Buy, but like a fool I didn't pay attention and grabbed the full screen version. I didn't notice until I popped the movie into my player. Now the return policy on the receipt says they allow exchanges on opened DVDs, but only for identical items. Does...

    Star Trek Price Drop

    Check out the MSRP for TNG season one. I've checked this across several websites, and they're all showing the lower price. It seems to apply to the first three seasons of TNG and DS9.

    More Welles in the New Year?

    This doesn't seem to have been mentioned yet, or if it was, it was lost in the server shuffle, but according to DVD Journal, Universal will be releasing editions of Orson Welles' The Stranger and The Trial on February 7th. I haven't seen this announcement anywhere else, and DVD Journal simply...

    Bill & Ted's Most Excellent Features

    I had a nice treat waiting for me when I got home yesterday -- the new Bill and Ted boxset had arrived early. I assume most people know what the movies are about: a couple stoner[1] metal-heads travel through time, heaven, and hell having adventures. For the movies in which Keanu Reeves...
