Re: rate the last movie you saw
Blade Runner (1982) 6 of 10. (US cut) -I had never seen this film before or any of its variants. I think because it was an R-rated film in 1982 that's why I couldn't see it (I was 13 then; I didn't see an R-rated film theatrically until the following year when I saw "Blue Thunder") and su...

Re: Disney's OMEN Prequel - April 5th - SPOILERS
The real problem is this. This present day breed of anti-Christian bigots also hates the idea of absolute Evil embodied by the concept of Satan, the Devil and Hell. They are the kind of people whose relativism and disdain for absolute concepts of Good and Evil makes them regard the very idea of Hell...

*********"Retconning" THE OMEN so that it's all (SPOILER) the work of some crazy Catholics trying to up dwindling church attendance (!) by rebirthing the Anti-Christ is just asinine******* That is the kind of asinine plotline that only the anti-Christian bigots of Hollywood could conjure. ...

Re: KING KONG (1976) on 4K UHD
Got my copy today. Can't deny the transfer is spectacular. I will always have a soft spot for this film because it was the first "big event" movie of my life at age seven. I remember seeing it in the Chatham Cinema when it came out, and I still have the trading card set and I can remember ...

The Path To 9/11 (2006) 8 of 10 -I revisited this miniseries that has been suppressed since its original broadcast in 2006 and has no video release because of Disney's slobbering appeasement of Bill Clinton who objected to the fact that his administration was not depicted as perfect and free from e...

I'm assuming that extra hour is where all the scenes that explained WHY Napoleon was invading other countries went to?

Re: Extended editions
Bumping this thread since andy b should add the TV cuts of "Beyond The Poseidon Adventure" and "When Time Ran Out" to the master list as they were included in the Irwin Allen set released by Shout!

Re: Kino spring sale
I've been sort of boycotting Kino ever since the "Columbo" debacle of theirs, though the fact that they haven't announced a single title of interest to me the last six months has also contributed to that but I decided to finally get some new stuff this time: Escape from Alcatraz (4KUHD) (4...

Re: STAR WARS: ICONS UNEARTHED Documentary with Rare Marcia Lucas Interview
Let's face it, if they put Christensen in at the end, wouldn't narrative consistency also mean Ewan MacGregor should have replaced Guinness?? (why should Ben be an old man forever after he's struck down?????) The rest of the interview also gave her a chance to let loose on how Lucas basically erased...

Re: STAR WARS: ICONS UNEARTHED Documentary with Rare Marcia Lucas Interview
I'm listening to the unedited Marcia Lucas interview first. She *really* hammers George for putting the pointless Jabba scene back in the "Special Edition", pointing out how the scene didn't work in the original cut (even leaving aside the bad performance of the Jabba actor) and it also ru...

Re: rate the last movie you saw
The shorter cut silent "King Of Kings" and "Risen" conclude this year's Holy Season viewing for me (I compensated for skipping "Ben Hur" by listening to the score during my lengthy walk around the neighborhood). Didn't watch quite as much as I did in the past but again,...

Re: STAR WARS: ICONS UNEARTHED Documentary with Rare Marcia Lucas Interview
Decided to order it. Should be interesting.
It is no coincidence that Lucas has not had one bona-fide cinema classic post-original SW trilogy IMO.

Re: Disney's OMEN Prequel - April 5th
Oh I'm sure they do. And just how in the world do you get a "prequel" out of this unless we're going back to an ancestor of Bugenhagen killing previous would-be sons-of-Satan? The funny thing is people really don't get why "The Omen" was such a hit in its time. It struck a chord ...

Re: rate the last movie you saw
Got through "Jesus Of Nazareth" yesterday followed by "Passion Of The Christ." I think unfortunately "Ben Hur" will be missing the cut as tomorrow I will set aside for the shorter organ-score version of the silent "King Of Kings" and "Risen" to compl...

Re: rate the last movie you saw
Added "Barabbas" and "The Greatest Story Ever Told" to my viewing. The former, I am tempted to do my own commentary track for at some point to compensate for that disgraceful one on the Imprint Blu-Ray. GSET despite the poor transfer of the current Blu-Ray at least looks better o...
