I originally gave AIR FORCE ONE three stars and enjoyed it as a summer blockbuster type of programmer -- but it's clear it had no shelf life, and has basically been forgotten. It's also not the kind of movie I've ever had an inkling to revisit, too.

To this day, I think that THE MISSION is by far the best of AMAZING STORIES lot. It may not be perfect, but I always get an excited and compelling reaction when I play ithe episode for friends and family members who had no clue this series even existed. My 12-year old nephew was doing a report on S...

Incidentally, I just picked up a bunch of the STAR TREK 2-DISC SPECIAL EDITION DVD's at Coconuts for $9.99 each. There was also a $5 rebate on each (final cost $4.99). Does anybody know of any other retailer selling these for a good price? I couldn't find the SEARCH FOR SPOCK SPECIAL EDITION and ne...

It'd be like making THE EXORCIST with Julia Roberts The power of Christ compels you! The power of Christ compels you!! It's also one thing to have an interesting director like Gus Van Sant on board to make the shot-for-shot remake, rather than a hack like John Moore. I agree with that...and look ho...

I knew we were in trouble when Lee Remick's part went to the incomparable....Julia Stiles. I knew we were in trouble when I saw the title of the film. Making a remake of a film everyone knows is one thing. Making a SHOT FOR SHOT REMAKE of a film still in circulation (so to speak) is absolutely, pos...

Edmund: nice to see you back! The audio/video is improved on both (I don't believe either previous DVD was 16:9 for starters). On the audio side POSEIDON is in 2.0 stereo and mono; TOWERING INFERNO is in a 4.1 surround and 2.0 surround. TOWERING had a bigger budget and the audio mix is a lot more im...

I'm in two minds about Poseidon , which I'll wait until its discounted, but have ordered Towering Inferno since Warners (who own non-USA rights) don't seem to be releasing it in the UK. Two questions - does it include the two 10-minute 1974 featurettes ("If anything happens to me, Ali gets my ...

Just got my review copies in of POSEIDON and TOWERING INFERNO (and thankfully they're actually final product - not squeezed-down, compressed screeners like Fox has regrettably begun sending of late to the media). Fans will LOVE these two discs -- remastered transfers, TONS of featurettes (some 30 de...

I feel a lot better about the score after hearing the interview. Sounds like he wanted to depart from Williams more than Bryan Singer did, but Singer was insistent on utilizing the Superman themes proper. Good show (and I'm guessing it's NOT going to sound like Cliff Martinez's SOLARIS now!). Ottman...

Sadly Eric, it's not here either

I ought to amend my review if I get a chance later...last time that exit music was on a video release was the laserdisc if I'm not correct.

See that's what I'm talking about! Why does the kid talk at all?? I still find it funny Julia Stiles is playing mom, and this child seems older than the one in the old movie, too. Let's just hope it fares better than the last time someone did a shot-for-shot horror remake of a movie everyone knows a...

Harry Knowles called the trailer "familiar." That's EXACTLY how I felt while watching it! That trailer ought to be a lesson in how NOT to market a film....completely devoid of any suspense, with hideous music and FAR too many details given away (for anyone who didn't see the original)...bu...

David,
My guess is that Paramount knows what they have in MI3 and jumped on his bandwagon for Trek ahead of the game. Hopefully this means good tidings for MISSION IMPOSSIBLE and Trek as well.

IT'S OFFICIAL!!!

Great news as far as I'm concerned

Ironically, most of the TV spots I've seen for The Sentinel have played during 24 . "Where's the Syntox nerve gas, DAMMIT!? " :wink: lol. Monty I was about to post a 24 rant thread, but will wait until the season's over. Still, do you agree with me this has been the least satisfying year ...
