Yes, it was. They still show reruns, so if you're so inclined, you can quote The Sixth Sense: "I see dead people."

HotRod, I take it you were unimpressed with the flying effects in the HP films?

Cool, but I really wanna get Looney Tunes: Back in Action that month. BTW, the SEs of Lilo & Stitch and Pocahontas have been delayed until next year, because Di$ney is reportedly working on a theatrical sequel to L&S.

That's hilarious; they'll give anyone a teaching certificate in the States @ this point, won't they?

Ha-ha. Mr. Dressup was actually a Canadian children's show hosted by Ernie Coombs, an associate of Fred Rogers. The show was actually fairly creative, but it took a nosedive when Casey and Finnigan left.

Actually, the players themselves were quite compact, especially compared to the VCRs of the day. Here's a pic:

It was the discs that were so bloody heavy and awkward, because they were kept in a special heavy-duty plastic sleeve which you inserted into the player, then removed so the disc could play.

Waiting for the restored version, which'll be coming out later this year.

That's about right; these things made LPs and LDs look positively miniscule by comparison.

Nice to see that Tombstone is still #1. You guys should really see Once Upon a Time in the West; absolutely amazing western that still holds up 35 years later.

That ties in nicely (sort of) with this thread; anyone ever seen the awful early-90s flick Threesome with Lara Flynn Boyle? Truly painful.

I remember CED all too well; in fact, ROTJ was the last film to be released on CED. The picture quality was slightly better than VHS, but would occasionally skip. The discs weighed about 10 lbs apiece. A friend of mine got a CED player and all the discs the previous owner had @ a garage sale in '94; man, it took up a lot of space!

And Canadian sociologists point to Denmark as being more civilised... nice to know we're all in the same boat.

I never said that inducing an altered state through television was a bad thing... my kids loved the Teletubbies, a stoner's delight if I've ever seen one.

I thought Rosario Dawson was nicer to look at, especially in The Rundown.
