Then what is your point?  What you described is someone being stupid, not sexist.  As Ryan said, there's nothing political about the cast of Ghostbusters 3.

 Yeah, it is stupid, but is the statement "since they are women, they're automatically better than Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, and Harold Ramis" not also sexist? I see statements pretty much like that all the time, and I think it's a little annoying. I guess I just used Ghostbusters 3 as an example of this. I dunno, feel free to call me a misogynistic pig, I guess.

Yes, us men really do have it rough.

 That's not the point I'm trying to make at all.

Have we discussed the obvious political subject matter of... Ghostbusters 3?

No because there isn't one?

 There is. I was having a discussion with someone, and they said that the new cast is better than the old one. When I inquired as to why, they responded "because they're women." This is an irritating trend I've noticed recently; just a blatant sexism that seems to be okay because it isn't the traditional kind. But, well, it's still sexist, isn't it?

Go ahead and release it, don't let these guys put you down. Welcome aboard!

Movies like The Sixth Sense are sometimes better the second time, as you can enjoy discovering all the clues you missed the first time.

 Unfortunately, when I saw it for the first time, I knew the twist. I would say it definitely wasn't as enjoyable as it probably would have been if I hadn't known.

Nice to see your dedication, though I would never try to hide the history behind the films from my kids. Whatever floats your boat.

I keep seeing these names, and am always disappointed that they haven't posted here for two years. Anyway, my top ten (in no way meant to be the best, just my favorite):

1. Amadeus

2. Star Wars

3. Empire Strikes Back

4. Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan

5. Toy Story

6. Grand Budapest Hotel

7. Amelie

8. Chinatown

9. Birdman

10. The Maltese Falcon

Say "NO" to ridiculous revisionism.

 Boo!

 You know very well what I'm talking about. Your project is more of an alternative, not a revision.

You sure about that? ;)

 Don't forget this one!

Yes, ARH matches TRM and I think ARH sounds better than ANR.

 Ah, right. Gotcha.

 WRONG FRANCHISE!!

I prefer ARH, for the record.

This is one of my top 5 favorite films of all time. I had the theatrical release on VHS, and received the Directors Cut blu ray as a gift, which I could not bear after the first viewing (and I've bought the flipper DVD). And, if they come out with the restored theatrical release blu ray I'll buy that too. But in the meantime, any way I could get a link?

THANK YOU jimbotron for all of your hard work!! You've done work worthy of the greatest fine art picture restorer!! :D

Also if there are any bonus features Harmy wants to include then this will obviously have to be revised.

 Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought some bonus features were being worked on earlier this year. Also, this featurette is pretty good bonus feature material anyway. Of course, I'm not Harmy, and would be fine with just the movie.

TV's Frink said:

  For some reason I seem to remember that HD footage doesn't lose quality when cropped, is this true?

 You will lose quality regardless, but with HD footage you have room to crop it without a noticeable decrease if you're planning on an SD release. This is all due to the simple fact that there's more picture information in the HD footage.

Wow, Harmy! I'm so happy to see this. Good luck in all your future endeavors!

Kinky.

The more I read about Roddenberry, the less I like about him, both as a creator/showrunner and as a person.

 Does the same go for Lucas? Does that explain your avatar?

I'd like to work with the old film stuff, but sadly they're so rare these days I wouldn't even know where to look for them.

I haven't seen this, but I saw something similar.

I just realized that 15-year olds these days were born in the 21st Century, damn. At least they can still appreciate a weird sci-fi movie from 1977.

Or they don't reach your city to make room for the latest Marvel Universe spinoff. Compared to today, the dark ages of the 1950s and early 60s look downright charming.

 Oh, c'mon, movies in the 50s and 60s couldn't have been that bad, right?
