As it requires no great sacrifice or personal inconvenience on their part, it kind of cheapens the concept of a boycott. Let’s see them deny their kids a trip to the parks or buying other Disney product.
I meant an official release from the Mouse. 😛
Oh, FFS. If that’s the thing that keeps them up at night, I envy them.
We’ll get the OOT in 4K before that ever happens.
I’m still curious as to if the 2002 Japanese DVD has the same hacked up track as the Blu-Ray.

Given the international scope of our members, you’d think somebody around here could speak Japanese or knows someone who does.
I’d go with Ghostbusters or Mask of the Phantasm.
I think I’ll go with the latter. Thanks. Although, I’m not sure which version to show them: the (correct) 1.33:1 or the 1.85:1 version that’s included so I don’t have to answer the “why are there black bars on the sides of the screen?” question to people who don’t understand aspect ratios and framing and stuff.
But the 1.85:1 version is the correct version! It was framed for theatrical release and I noticed a few more animation errors watching it the other way.
MOTP was originally intended for a home video release. The decision to go theatrical was made late in production, so both aspect ratios are in play.
At least it wasn’t cursed!
It still pales compared to Episode III leaking before the movie was in theaters. Of course, we got Backstroke Of The West out of that.
And buy the official release, kids! Or Porgs will eat you in your sleep. 😛
He was excellent in Shattered Glass and Life as a House. Awake was pretty good too. I’d probably would have watched his more recent films, but Frink has enough Hayden dialog to finish ROTR now.
We both deserve medals for having watched Virgin Territory though. 😉
Well, this is embarrassing. I can’t find the Columbia/TriStar disc anywhere. I thought it would be tucked in right next to my Criterion, which is right where it’s supposed to be.
I suspect it ended up in a box of discs I took to Goodwill a few years back. 😕
I’ve wondered how movies like that played on the other side of the pond. Then again, someone I used to know in the UK told me they love Austin Powers there. 😛
Does a pardon wipe a record clean?
How dumb do you have to be to take photos in a classified area and then try to destroy evidence you’ve done so? I would think cell phones or any sort of personal camera would not be allowed on board.
I know my late father worked on something to do with subs at some point in his civilian career, and he wouldn’t even tell me if he ever had set foot on one. That’s how seriously he took his security clearance. I wish I knew more than the tiny fraction I do of what my dad did for a living, but it’s CLASSIFIED for a reason!
It will the end of an era if and when they go. If you were a '70’s kid, going to a TRU store was a unique experience. They had everything you could think of. The older store exteriors were colorful and stood apart.
I was at a grand opening for an L.A. area store when I was little. I think the Banana Splits were there.
Remember when Star Wars had it’s own aisle?
Still regularly shopped there well into the 90’s. They had about the best videogame selection back in the day.
Last time I was in one, I was looking for Star Wars Viewmaster reels, and had to explain to a confused employee just what Viewmaster is. 😕

LOL!
Maybe they can install a Mc D’s in the belly of a cargo plane.
Yay for criminal scum!
Yikes.
Anyway, this reeks of a sucker play to buy time. If Trumpy is even still in office come May, this meeting could fall apart for any number of reasons. I don’t see KJU venturing out of NK in the first place. Trumpy might be crazy enough to go to Pyongyang though.
(And I can’t believe I spelled that right on the first try.)
Would you meet with a guy who executes his relatives via assassins and artillery fire? They’re going to need food tasters if these two have a dinner together!
Hi, thebutcher! Would you have any interest in taking on combining the best elements out there for the remaining 11 unreleased episodes? I have four I recorded back on S-VHS back in the day, plus an undamaged Lost Continent.
Now that Shout Factory put out a disc with all the host segments from those episodes, it seems like some sort of preservation project is possible now.
I resist the urge to post the outrage of the day but this is messed up (and is one of those quiet policy changes referenced in the article Frink posts):
TL;DR: Admin hiding puppy mill inspection records.
How f*cking mustache twirling evil can Trumpy possibly get?
The animal rights people are going to go ballistic.
Interesting idea! Not sure what we could talk about to fill up a minimum amount of time every week.
I was thinking the other day Frink should record some commentary tracks for his prequel trilogy when ROTR is finished.
If your current tv ever breaks, you might find there aren’t any 1080p sets left on the market. 4K is getting cheaper every month.
