    Gay-Friendly Blu-rays

    I watched SPOILER ALERT last night. Unlike many other people, I never thought that it was a tearjerker. It was a good film with great performances but there have been far too many films on the same subject in the past 30 years.Many of those were real tearjerkers including some TV...

    Wicked: Part One (2024)

    Why would anyone want to see half of a musical film and then wait 12 months in order to see the second half? This must be the most stupid, braindead and idiotic idea in cinema history.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny -- in 4k UHD

    I watched I.J and the Dial of Destiny last night. It failed to impress me. Harrison Ford has never been a great actor although he was good (but not great) in the first 3 I.J. films. I am not really into action movies but the first I.J film was highly enjoyable.I saw it at the...

    The Wizard of Oz (Remake) (2026)

    You can't remake a classic no matter how hard you try. The 1939 version was the very best of all the versions on film.The musical stage show was brilliant.

    Will Around the World in 80 Days ever get a special deluxe edition like The Wonderful World of The Brothers Grimm?

    The Paris screen in Sydney was woefully small for 70mm projection as were almost all cinemas with 70mm in Sydney. Such a pity as where I worked in Wellington, New Zealand we had a 59ft wide curved Todd-AO screen. We had SOUND OF MUSIC for 42 weeks .SOUTH PACIFIC ran 25 weeks...

    What Forgotten Films do you want on Blu ray or 4K?

    I would like to see BLACK TIGHTS released on bluray. This film was great when I saw it when it was first released in 70mm. The dvd quality is poor. How many people even remember seeing this film in 70mm? It seems to be an almost forgotten 70mm film.
