I watched some of my Smilebox HTWWW on my 65" panel and felt that the effect didn't work. You need a big screen at home to get the effect. I usually project my small collection of Smilebox films. I would buy Smilebox editions of IAMMMMW, Ice Station Zebra, 2001 (but obviously not Ben Hur!).
I have now put my hard hat on. I don't know whether it is because of getting older, but many films are simply too long, with too many sub-plots/themes or poorly edited. I watched La Belle Noiseuse fairly recently and, nearly 4 hours running time, seemed shorter than Ben Hur. It might just be...
Reviewing my blu ray collection and watching discs again that i hadn't seen since release. Sad to say i really struggled to get through it. Decided i wouldn't upgrade to 4k if released so giving it away.
