    So grateful to retire my dusty old VHS that I, um, liberated from Blockbuster many years ago.

    Blu-ray Review Sweet Charity Blu-ray Review

    By some accounts, maybe. But Ellinger is rather well-respected in other circles, and certainly is held in high regard amongst a sizable group of her peers. Obviously, we're all entitled to our opinions, but know that there are plenty out there who would disagree with the vitriol being thrown her...

    Toy Story 2 Censored Scene

    This is the only place I've personally seen any extended discussion of it--to be fair, I'm not looking, because I don't consider this all that worrisome. ("Where do we draw the line?" Somewhere...but not here.) And no, the existing discs will never be considered truly rare (barring some rogue...

    Toy Story 2 Censored Scene

    Well to be fair, I don't think that's their primary reason for making this cut. I genuinely believe that this change is coming from a well-intentioned place. (Some people may not agree with it or like it, and I completely understand that... though it's pretty insignificant to me personally.) A...

    Toy Story 2 Censored Scene

    This is a brilliant move by Disney. They'll probably see a bump in sales on their remaining stock of previous releases, fueled by collectors, speculators, and those who feel it important to take a stand and vote with their wallet regarding this ten second credit gag being removed. And then the...

    The Sony censorship policy and what caused it

    But is a choice between the cover of a T-rated game or the content of an M-rated game a fair comparison?

    Criterion and Audio Commentaries

    I think most labels probably pay attention to what the fan base says--but as we can see even in this post and thread, what they want can vary wildly. As far as commentaries go, I'm sure the labels all hope to get the big names involved, but for a variety of reasons it may not be feasible...

    Criterion and Audio Commentaries

    Commentary costs can add up. The cost of just the recording can be anywhere from $0(if the commentator has some aptitude with home recording; usually this is a historian) to a couple thousand dollars (if, like most film professionals, they prefer to record in a studio with a skilled engineer.)...

    The Bold Ones: The New Doctors Complete Series

    The short answer is it was never truly an episode of The Bold Ones, but a pilot for "Hernandez, Houston P.D." Here's a TV listing for 01/16/1973, when those episode guides list "The Night Crawler" I research film and TV for a living, and I can promise you that the most commonly used online...

    Could The Defenders Be Released on DVD?

    So what I'm getting here is that you didn't get the support you felt you needed to get what you want. For that, I'm sorry. I can truly empathize with that frustration. I repeat my offer: start a petition, and I'll sign it. I shall support your efforts to get what you want. And I won't rain on...

    Could The Defenders Be Released on DVD?

    Start a campaign for any of those shows to get completed, and I'll cheer you on. Hand me a petition, and I'll sign it. Regardless of what I think of this or any television show or movie, I can always appreciate when folks decide to take specific and immediate action in an attempt to get what...

    Could The Defenders Be Released on DVD?

    According to Anderson himself, it seems that MacGyver introduced social issues into the series based on the actor's burgeoning interest in them. ""At that time in my life, I had become more conscious around issues like conservation, and the producers and writers started to take things I was...

    The Cannon Films / Golan-Globus on Blu-ray! thread

    BOLERO, at least the version I've seen, is barely an hour and forty-five minutes long...though I can certainly see how it could feel like three hours :) As someone who has seen GHOSTS CAN'T DO IT, I'd say that your assessment of it is eerily accurate...though it at least offers an additional...

    Do you guys collect for nostalgia or quality?

    In a perfect world, those shows which give me a nostalgic tingle also turn out to hold up well today. Of course, much like your ALF example, it doesn't always turn out that way for me! Those rose-colored nostalgia goggles do not always provide 20/20 hindsight. But for the most part, I try to...

    Music Substitutions and Clearances

    I suspect that the counterargument could be made that Stairway and Hey Jude have already made their owners millions of dollars, and to ever ask for a penny more is also a ridiculous showing of greed. I completely empathize with the idea that a few holdouts can keep us from getting exactly what...

    So, Robert De Niro...is it just me or...

    Once when Jack Nicholson was asked why he'd deign to appear in the Adam Sandler film Anger Management, he explained (and I'm paraphrasing here) that this was a style of film that he hadn't really done, and he wondered if he could learn something about his craft by taking part in something that...

    Running anywhere between 292 and 295 light (depending on my loadout) these days. I feel like I'm hitting that grinding point where I put in an hour or two in the vain hope that I get even a single piece of gear that will move me up. Still having fun, and it's a great way to unwind after...
