    Spider-Man Homecoming - July 7, 2017

    For once, I would love to see a Spider-Man film where he is not crying. Tobey cried in all three of his films and Andrew cried in all of his two movies. Nothing wrong with a man shedding a tear every now and then, but Spidey has done it so often, it's an old hat now. He's like the Michael...

    Supergirl (CBS)

    I knew someone would respond like this. I know there are still sexist people out there, but in this day and age to come at a group like Laura Benanti supposedly did is unnecessary. Not every man who watches Supergirl is expecting a T&A show. There are many men out there who are just looking...

    Supergirl (CBS)

    This is exactly why I don't watch shows like Supergirl or Agent Carter. You can't never have a female driven action show without someone getting on their soapbox and acting like girlpower or female empowerment was just created two hours ago. Someone always has to put men down in some form or...

    Star Wars Ep. VII Megathread: The Force Awakens

    Not too crazy about the new poster. Honestly, why isn't Luke Skywalker featured? This is not a knock against anyone on the forum, but I've always felt that Luke doesn't get the respect he (or Mark Hamill) deserves especially in light of Han Solo. People forget that Luke is the heart and soul...

    Barnes & Noble Semi-Annual 50% off Criterion Sale

    Hi Tony, Thank you for the information. I did not know that Costco of all places carry Criterion selected films. Is this just the Criterion DVD's or the Blu-ray's as well? And are they always $20.00 dollars or this just to coincide with the Barnes & Noble sale? So far, I've picked up...

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    Agreed. I thought Fury Road was good film, but not a great one. It falls short of Mad Max and Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior. While the bulk of the film's action sequences were very comprehensible, I found the first chase sequence (Sand Storm scene) a bit difficult to watch because of the quick...

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    By the way, the only reason I brought up Terminator: Genysis on the Mad Max: Fury Road thread is because I had the same concern for Fury Road as I now have for Genysis. Fury Road and Genysis are both follow ups to PG-13 predecessors which in turn were follow ups to "R" rated films. Now that I...

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    Thanks for the info. Hopefully it will be "R" like Fury Road.

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    I don't mean to veer off the subject of Fury Road, but speaking of "R" rated movies, does anyone know if Terminator: Genisys will be rated "R"? For me, that will be the determining factor as to whether or not I will pay to see it.

    Mad Max: Fury Road (2015)

    Hi Everyone, I know I don't get on the forum often, but I wanted to chime in on the Max talk. Very excited for this film, I will be seeing it either Sunday night or Monday night depending on what my friend decides. Having said that, is anyone really surprised that Pitch Perfect 2 is...

    Criterion 2015 Speculation and Wish Listing

    Having the Criterion name on a laserdisc, DVD, or Blu-Ray Disc is by no means a way to make me feel good or justify my positive feelings about liking a certain movie. The Superman mention was more speculaton than anything. I just think it would have been interesting to see how Criterion would...

    Criterion 2015 Speculation and Wish Listing

    I know I'm late to this party, but here goes. Jackie Brown - I know I'm in the minority,but I've always found this to be Quentin Tarantino's best film. Far better than Pulp. Eve's Bayou - Kasi Lemmon's masterpiece about an upscale African American family and the inner turmoil that tears them...

    Blu-ray Review Star Trek: The Next Generation Season One Blu-ray Review

    I'm pretty sure most on the forum already know this, but season 1 is currently on sale at Amazon for $19.99.

    Blu-ray Review Batman: The Complete Television Series Blu-ray Review

    Thank you for the information Travis. I definitely want the stripped down blu-ray box set, but I'll wait awhile for that $200.00 plus price tag to drop.

    USHE Press Release: Battlestar Galactica The Definitive Collection & The Remastered Collec

    I remember when the DVD collector's set came out sometime around 2002 or 2003. The box was silver and came in the shape of a Cylon Centurian head. I remember being so excited, that I sold some of my DVD's to get the money for the Galactica box set. Like everyone else on this thread, the...

    Blu-ray Review Batman: The Complete Television Series Blu-ray Review

    Why do you think season 2 would be split into two parts? Is it because it has more episodes than seasons 1 and 3?

    Blu-ray Review Batman: The Complete Television Series Blu-ray Review

    Hello Everyone, I was just wondering, will there ever be a stripped down blu-ray box set, one without all the trinkets, but with all the special features and therefore less expensive? I really want the series, but I can do without the toy Batmobile and trading cards. However, I would like to...

    Shout Factory Press Release: Clive Barker's Nightbreed The Director's Cut Limited Edition

    So it is finally being released. I remember when Scream (Shout) Factory first made the announcement about the Director's Cut of Nightbreed at the San Diego Comic-Con two years ago. It is also coming out not too far after the release of the Halloween Blu-Ray collection. September and October...

    Godzilla (2014) Reviews/Discussion

    I really wanted this movie to be something special, but as it turns out, it was very mediocre. Action sequences in movies that take place in the dark and rain are so played out. As a matter of fact, it was never cool with me. I didn't like it in the Emmerich/Devlin Godzilla, didn't like it in...

    X-Men: Day of Future Past - Reviews/Discussion

    Did a double feature at the local AMC Theater with Godzilla being the other film. Days of Future Past was definitely the better of the two. Although Peter Dinklage is a wonderful actor, I believe Kevin Bacon's Sebastian Shaw was a much better antagonist. Bolivar Trask seem to be more of a...

    Halloween: The Complete Collection/Limited Edition (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    For me, the selling point will be how in depth and plentiful are the new bonus features. 25 Years of Terror covered a lot of ground, but it has been 8 years since its 2006 release and much has happened in the Halloween fracnchise. According to Wikipedia, there was another documentary that...

    Halloween: The Complete Collection/Limited Edition (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    Will the wonderful documentary 25 Years of Terror be included as a blu-ray transfer? And while we're at it, for the amount of money that it will cost to purchase this boxset, they may as well throw in Terror in the Aisle, transferred to blu-ray of course.

    Captain America: The Winter Soldier (2014)

    I agree. As much as I enjoyed the First Avenger, I wanted to see more of Steve's skills, especially his strategic thinking, so when one gets to the Avengers, there would be no doubt as to why a thunder god, a billionare genius, a gamma radiated monster, and two master assasins would follow him...

    How bout a Blu for The Black Hole (1979)

    Pardon my ignorance ahollis, but what does MOD stand for? In many circles it means Manager On Duty, but since this is the Home Theater Forum, I'm pretty sure it means something entirely different. WOW!!!, I remember that issue of Mad Magazine. HILARIOUS! I believe that issue of Mad came...

    How bout a Blu for The Black Hole (1979)

    Man, would I love to have this film as a two disc blu-ray collectors edition. I'm definitely in the minority when I say I've always preferred The Black Hole over Tron when it comes to the post-Star Wars Disney Sci-Fi/Fantasy films. Don't get me wrong, I loves me some Tron, but there is just...

    Blu-ray Review Tank Girl Collector's Edition Blu-Ray Review

    Great Review. By the way, I think you mean "Batman Forever" which came out in 1995, not "Batman Returns" which was released in 1992.

    The Lone Ranger - quick review

    I haven't seen the film yet, but from what I gather based on the everyone's review so far, this film may be worse than the 1981 version. Is it safe to assume that the Klinton Spilsbury version is superior? Or are we stuck between a rock and a hard place in terms of both Lone Ranger films.

    Man of Steel - quick review

    Some people would say he shouldn't be killing at all. But if you're going to go down that road which is clearly what Snyder and Goyer did, I don't think Zod is the villain for the task. If any villain is going to take Kal-El to the point of contemplating murder let alone actually committing...

    Man of Steel - quick review

    You know, when you think about it, Superman really shouldn't be murdering anybody in his first movie out the gate. Even his first movie in a reboot series. Just a thought.
