If only Star Wars were treated with so much care…

2001: A Space Odyssey to have limited 70mm run for 50th anniversary

For the first time since the original release, this 70mm print was struck from new printing elements made from the original camera negative. This is a true photochemical film recreation. There are no digital tricks, remastered effects, or revisionist edits.

It’s almost as if they’re taunting us. It’s a sad world in which clarifications like this even need to be said.

When do we get a list of cinemas and showtimes?!

Ditto! I have no idea

How do you sort your movies?

Yeah, so this one is technically backwards, with the clasp rather than the spine facing out. But that’s the beauty of the slip cover.

You could flip the cover, where the spine would be out, the cover would just be backward, but it’s not like the spine or clasp are visable anyway.

I may have done that actually. I don’t know. Not worth taking the thing off the shelf to find out, as it doesn’t matter at all 😛

On a related note, do you store your slip-covered TLJ Blu with the Rey- or Luke-emblazoned spine facing out? Or didn’t you notice or care?

I went with Luke.

I have the steelbook

I went with the slip-covered blu-Rey.

3/9

★★★☆☆☆☆☆☆

FTFY. But could you please be more descriptive?

Bride of Frankenstein deserves more than a 75%.

Probably my favorite movie.

Now this I don’t understand. I mean, it’s a fine movie, but I’m thoroughly more entertained by many other pictures.
(not knocking you or anything, I’d just never expect to see someone list it as their favorite of all time)

The story (in the movie, it’s sources and behind the scenes)
The music
The sets
The costumes
The cinematography
The style
The dialog
The metaphors
The symbology
The acting
The players
The direction
The mood
The story
The lore
The IDEAS

It’s not perfect, but nothin’s better.

This is a more concise way to say what you just said:

★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★

Wow, a 16/16.

He had 16 positive bullet points!

If you need to B*tch about something... this is the place
Time

Insect products containing diatomaceous earth are often good for bugs that live in and around the bed. It’s safe because it’s method of action is not chemical but rather it is abrasive and essentially scratches the bugs to death. Hence it’s often sold as kitchen-grade bug killer or bed bug killer, but it works for all kinds of bugs. Put in in the joints of the bed frame and along the groove L beam of the bed frame rail, and at the points where the bed connects to the floor and the bugs are crawling up.
