It was released on LAserdisc by Image entertainment and VHS BY Live Entertainment. Fox only held the US Theatrical Distribution rights. It's probably one of those movies that fell through the crack since the Production company, Gladden eNtertainment, folded after this film and Mannequein2: on...
Oh I am totally buying this box set as they are all fantastic films and that I have been campainging for "Head for quite a while. I even put it on my top ten list of american films that I would like Criterion to release on my web show Laserdisc Memories!!!
Disney probably is getting the animated film restored at 4K resolution so that it will look perfect on Blu. They probably don't want to port over a master from the previous DVD. Why they didn't do this while the new movie was in production is beyond me though...
I'm really surprisd that (500) Days of Summer didn't get the best original Screenplay nomination. However I am very happy that District 9 got as many nominatons as it did. As far as STar trek for Best visual effects, I'm very happ what with the use of practical effects more than CGI. (even...
Well judging by today's press releases, for both Doctor Zhivago and The African Queen, we should be getting a press release soon from disney. Really looking forward to this one!!!
Might be buying a couple of movies blind in March!!! Havent done that since the DVD days but man would love to get my hands on Days of Heaven and BIgger than Life. Hell, the entire month of March in Criterion is almost an instant buy for me in Blu!
First of all I just want to say that I'm not trying to sell anything nor am I trying to promote my stuff here. I'm not a spammer as I have been a member of this board off and on since 2003. If this is the wrong place to post this, administrators please move this thread to a more appropriate...
I was at the D23 event in anaheim this weekend and I saw two examples of Home 3-D. One was the usual light analpragh 3-d that you see in the movies and the other one was the heavier shutter glasses. both prototypical and both very good. No prices as of yet though...
I think that it could have been hacked but it is up now through normal means. Tried to see what all the hub bub was about in the forums but there was nothing that talked about this weird little mishap.
I love Godard and will be picking this up eventually. I just love the experiments that he did with this film as well as in the dialogue in the party scene where the people in the party start quoting advertisements. a great commentary on the state of socializing today and even back then!
I really enjoyed this reboot of sorts. I find it more of a STar Trek "Infinities" if nothing else (in case you don't know there was a series of comic books called STar Wars Infinities where they took the original plot of the OT of Star Wars and turned it on it's ear. Kind of like Abraham's...
No I'm not. I should have written it differently. Mo-Fi won't do multi channel releases of Popular music since it was originally released in 2-ch stereo. Orchestral is a totally different category for some reason for them. I wish that they would include surround mixes on their SACDs. Maybe the...
The Armageddon Criterion Release was a big controversy at the time of the release and it sitll is to this day. This was released in 1999 a few month after the Di$ney release. It was big because of all the special features that it had on it compared to the Di$ney release. both releases are...
Ok, A couple of point here: 1) I have the entire criterion collection on my Netflix Que. So Criterions titles are avliable for rental on one of the nations biggest rental sites. As far as B&M's are concerned, You can find some but not all of the criterion titles avliable for rent however the...
unfortunately with the state of today's economy, fewer people are forking over the cash for really super duper editions. especially compared to the advent of DVD where we were buying a couple new discs every week. I will be buying the Gone with the Wind edition when it comes out on Blu-Ray...
GIven the fact that the features ARE listed on the back of the box stating that there is no COmmentry or deleted scenes plus the fact that you chose to do the two disc version as opposed to the single disc even further proves the point that your anger due to the "over Priced" should not be there...
ANd yes I do! I'm not saying that I can afford each and every Criterion disc out there (because I can't) nor do I go around blind buying any new Criterion release (cause I would have to find a way to return Salo and Jubilee) BUt if I had a choice between a criterion release or a regular studio...
THen you, sir, definitely don't know the contribution that Criterion made to the advent of Home video Presentation especially in the days of laserdisc. Like I said before, if it wasn't for Criterion, you would probably not even have the wonderful special features or even films presented in their...
If you "Triple dip" from Criterion DVD to Criterion Bluray, Criterion will offer a rebate. YEs they are in business but they aren't a regular studio that is wanting you to double dip for that new extra. They do however want you to double dip for the best possible presentation that is available...
THe first edition of THe Third Man was Released on DVD 3-23-2001 and then remastered in Hi-Def and re-released on 5-22-2007. THe Seventh Seal was released on DVD on January 29, 1999 and has since not been given a high def remastering. These remasters both still have specs and scrapes on their...
Sir, I don't know if anyone else has replied to your post as of yet, but what you had just said made me want to join in. The titles that you have mentioned above (TIme Bandits, The Samuri Trilogy,etc) are title that were in Criterions first 100 releases back in the late 90's. These titles...
