4K restoration on Star Wars
Time

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.

I wish Papa Murphy’s sold by the slice. I’m not hungry enough to eat a whole pie.

The give you a triangle-shaped piece of crust, some sauce, and some cheese, and you make it yourself.

I hope the sauce comes in one of those little ketchup packets. A plastic cup would be too convenient.

Well yes, but obviously the packet is also triangle shaped.

So that it contains only half as much and I need to go back to get more? They’re so smart! It’s good to get out of the house!

So I’m on vacation and I wont be back until Friday, so that’s when I’m picking up the Last Jedi 4k blu-ray. To anyone that has it, how good is the 4k, hdr, dolby vision, or dolby atmos? I wanted to hear it from star wars fans (like myself) rather than 4k blu-ray reviewers because my opinions usually are the same as you guys.

my setup is only HDR10 and 5.1

Peasant.

Last movie seen
Time

Except people who say that TLJ provides a radical new interpretation of Luke are wrong. Luke has plenty moments of skepticism in the OT. He’s also 35 years older than when we last saw him, and he’s seen a lot. It’s reasonable that a character could develop during that time.

In fact, if Luke were precisely as we left him in ROTJ, that would be less believable.

Also, given the plot of TFA, how did people not see this coming? Why is it suddenly shocking with TLJ that Luke isn’t a gun-ho optimist let’s fight the FO! Infinite Jedi!

Movies Seen In Theaters From Before You Were Born
Time

Last night I finally saw the one movie from before I was born that I’ve been trying to see ever since I started going to see movies from before I was born.

You may know it by its other title, The Greatest Film Ever Made, but I personally like to call it E.T. The Extra Terrestrial.

It did not disappoint. Tears were shed. Would see in theaters again ASAP.

The end of E.T. turns me into a faucet when I watch it on my 32"LED. Seeing it on the big screen would be emotional.
