Just got the concert Blu-Ray Williams: Live in Vienna, which contains new recordings of many iconic themes including The Imperial March, Hedwig’s Theme and Adventures on Earth.
Singin’ in the Rain (1952) This film is an essential masterpiece of cinema. The acting, singing and dancing is phenomenal. This film is the single best jukebox musical ever made.
The 2019 Blu-Rays of the Star Wars films are movie-only versions with the exact same terrible transfers as the 2011 Blu-Ray.
People don’t give silent era cinema the love and respect they deserve.
I added the CBS/FOX Laserdisc of Capricorn One to my collection. I weeded my DNR heavy Blu-Ray of Pinocchio. I am keeping the Classics VHS with Black Cauldron Trailer, Classics Restored Demo VHS and the Limited Issue DVD of Disney’s second animated masterpiece.
I don’t get why you chose to leave in Greedo shooting first.
Do you plan on removing the incestuous kiss?
Fantastic Beasts 2: The Crimes of Grindelwald is a film that needs some editing.
Al Bowlly has one of the greatest voices in music.
If you believe in owning the source before getting ROTJ:Revisited, yes.
Game of Thrones: Season 8 due to a poor automated HDR-to-SDR conversion is too dark to make up any details during the Battle of Winterfell, resulting in a picture quality on par with the first VHS of Fantastic Voyage.
1812 Overture tells the story of the Russian victory over Napoleon Bonaparte.
Also, having Padme live once you get to Episode III fixes a major plot hole from ROTJ.
How does Anakin become Vader in this rewrite?
Wait till you get a PS5 or Xbox Series X. Then consider buying them.
The Sequels. Even though I felt Rise of Skywalker couldn’t hit the highs of Last Jedi, all of them are better films than the prequels. However, the novelization of Revenge of the Sith is better than both TFA and TROS, but not TLJ.
That’s so cool, having a press book.
For me, it’s the original hardback of Heir to the Empire, printed in 1991.
This is the home videos after giving the GOUT DVD to my sister.
Carrie Fisher
There’s a Japanese Laserdisc with original music, released in 1986.
60GB for an SD preservation? That’s about the size of 4K77 2160p. That’s definitely going overboard.
Slapstick isn’t funny. It’s entertaining though.
Romance is stupid and unnecessary in movies unless it is crucial to the plot. (Is this unpopular?)
I don’t like most musical films. They’re just too cheerful and romanticises a historic era sometimes, and probably most appeal to middle aged mums. However, there are some musicals I do genuinely do enjoy.
Fan-service is god-awful bollocks and ruins the aesthetic of a film other than to please horny teenagers. That ruins a lot of anime. Please, young-adult oriented anime where the female characters aren’t sexualised and look like a bug-eyed Disney character please?
I’m bloody tired of Every. Single. Fantasy. Story… taking place in a world modelled after medieval Europe. Like, how about a world modelled after imperial Asia, or… ancient Mesopotamia. Or, god forbid, pre-contact America?! Just stop trying to be like Tolkien.
What the flying fuck are the good plot advancing reasons for sex scenes other than to please the bloody audience?!
Terminator 1 had a sex scene to explain how John Connor was conceived to keep the time loop stable.
ANH: Hall full of stormtroopers
ESB: Fix the visible arm
ROTJ: Removing the rope from Han’s feet
All of these can be done while keeping GOUT sync.
