Columbia/Sony didn't know what to do with the Stooges with the original "themed" DVD releases. The Ultimate DVD collection came close, leaving only the movies and various rarities to be collected independently. What is Sony's target audience with this BD collection? Most of the rarities and...

Yeah...This is incredible. Sarandos: "There’s no reason to believe that the movie itself is better in any size of screen for all people. My son’s an editor. He is 28 years old, and he watched ‘Lawrence of Arabia’ on his phone.”

Both Amazon 3rd party sellers and eBay are selling counterfeit golden age sets with apparent impunity. After culling my boxes from 20 years back several years ago I decided to acquire the 2011 boxset recently. I bought one on Amazon. It was the counterfeit "375" box and was returned...

Portlandia summarized the addictive beauty of BSG pperfectly.

Crime and Punishment? Thief of Baghdad? The Big Steal?

Soldier of Orange was a good film. After that, a terribly mixed bag. Back to the topic at hand, LOA was beyond spectacular in 4k. Even on a 65" oled.

I've put off watching Becket for no good reason. It pairs well with that Christmas favorite, The Lion in Winter. What family doesn't have its ups and downs? For an accurate historical account of Henry II, Eleanor of Aquitaine and the Four Kings, by Amy Kelly (1950) is worth reading.

In time, this thread, like all others, will sleep with the fishes.

A civil lawsuit would be foolish and unproductive. However, a criminal prosecution does not require that the victim make a formal complaint. While Smith, if convicted, would likely receive diversion and counseling, rather than jail time, a prosecution for such a public offense would send...

It would seem so. Unless your account was temporarily hijacked, you did.

For those opining that a bad (or hurtful) joke is an assault, or that a slap is not criminal conduct, a look at California's defining statutes may be instructive. A verbal insult is not an assault and any offensive touching can be a criminal battery. Penal Code Section 240: An assault is...

Bill Hunt was greatly impressed with the 4k release, calling it possibly the best UHD release of the year.

I've already expressed my dislike of the steelbook's artwork for this release of LoA in the Press Release thread and won't say more here. I am curious if anyone has an address (electronic or USPS) for someone at Sony who might have the power to reissue the artwork from the big box version...

Well, Mr. Gondorff may be on to something.
