another year, I was ecstatic when I was notified that I had won the Panasonic DMP-BD10 Blu-Ray player here on HTF. I quickly canceled DVD pre-orders and placed new orders for the same titles in Blu-Ray, and enabled Blu-Ray in my Netflix queue. We're still in the early days of this format...

I saw it last weekend and loved it, but I have no idea how this will do in wider release. It's very long and a bit like a Terrence Malick film. I can't see it doing very well.

According to Leonard Maltin, wave 6 was the last. I'm really bummed out - at least they should have finished it up with Donald Duck 3&4 and Rarities 2. http://www.ultimatedisney.com/forum/...18132&start=66

okay, plagiarism IS laziness... but look here: http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/...NNERS/60126001 In a blog entry at rogerebert.com yesterday, website writer/editor Jim Emerson wrote an entry about Tom Cruise called 'Tom Cruise: Cutter and censor?' In the first paragraph, he links...

http://www.tvshowsondvd.com/newsitem.cfm?NewsID=3951 Exciting news - though why include just 5 of the wrap-arounds? I wish there was an episode guide for the Super Mario Bros. Super Show - has anyone found one? IMDB mentions 130 episodes, but with 1 in 5 being a Zelda episode (Fridays)...

I read today about a new box set on davisdvd.com. It's all 12 discs from the existing 6 releases, plus a bonus disc with two additional episodes and bonus features. The new packaging also looks very cool. This sounds really exciting, except... I already bought all the releases seperately when...

I respect and admire Stephen King but I never liked his column in Entertainment Weekly. I have a tough time seeing a link between what he writes in that magazine and the genius of his novels. This week he slams DVD extras. My favorite DVD extra (at least for older films) is the audio...

Note to moderators: If this violates HTF policy, please delete this message. I just thought that some members might find it interesting that one of their fellow HTFers has written a book. You might have already learned about this in my signature, but now the book is finally out and I'm very...

I was informed today that the current DVD release doesn't contain the songs from Dylan and Hendrix (even though the back cover incorrectly mentions those tracks as being in the film) that the original film did. Anyone know if there are plans for a re-release?

My family's current computer is about 4 years old and we're ready to buy a new one, plus I graduated from college and won't be able to use my University's video editing facilities anymore. Furthermore, my family's home videos are beginning to deteriorate, and we want to convert them to DVD...

Does anybody know more about this movie? I see it listed at play.com for Region 2 DVD release on February 2. It says that the film stars Burt Reynolds and Ryan Dunn (of Jackass). It's nowhere to be found on imdb.

I read Ebert's review this morning, and noticed three strange things when I went to see the movie: 1. Matt Damon's character is called "Bob" but Ebert keeps referring to him as "Bo." I know that he addressed a similar issue with Panic Room (the girl's character's name was listed incorrectly...

Last night, several NBC affiliates refused to air the live episode of SNL hosted by Al Sharpton. NBC lawyers certified that it could be broadcasted nationally without breaking equal time rules, but some affiliates showed infomercials, Cheers reruns or The Best of Steve Martin instead. The...

http://www.hive4media.com/news/html/...rticle_id=5136 This article on Artisan's Q4 slate mentions a new 2-disc Dirty Dancing (Ultimate Dirty Dancing) for November 4. This is to coincide with the release of its sequel Havana Nights. Is this another triple-dipper from Artisan? I've lost count.

A box of 11 Fons Rademakers films was scheduled for release in Holland in March. Has anybody heard more about the box? They were also being released individually, and two or three of the films were going to have audio commentary. One of the titles is the 1987 Best Foreign Language winner The...

I'm pretty sure that just about every studio that Bill Murray has worked with has tried to approach him about doing an interview for one of his films on DVD. He has never contributed an interview for any DVD release of his classic films at all. He is most notably absent on special editions of...

This reunion movie was on TV last night and I saw on davisdvd.com that this will be coming out on DVD June 3rd. Unfortunately, following the CSI lead, FOX will be releasing it in full screen only (even though it was taped in widescreen). I used to watch Baywatch for about the first two or three...

Hive4media reports that all six stars 'gathered' for an audio commentary. It remains to be seen if this will be an edited commentary or a live one. Either way, I'm excited and it's a good way for Artisan to show that they're still in the game of releasing good widescreen sets. New transfer, DTS...

I agree with dave brogli and everyone else posting in the other thread and applaud all the efforts that the HTF has made. You guys do a terrific job, and there's no better place for forums and DVD release info on the net. However, I was disappointed to see an advertisement for a DVD that is...

Now that I'm region-free I'd like to get some Dutch DVDs. I've been searching on-line but I can't find a comprehensive list of Dutch films on DVD - none of them seem to be anywhere near complete. Since I have spotted so many folks from Holland on the HTF: Does anyone know which Dutch films...

A DVD with three 2-parters of the series ALF is coming out in Canada Tuesday. The DVD includes several special features, including commentary by ALF. Has anyone seen a review yet?

I've been pretty annoyed by what I am about to discuss for a long time now, but this just has to be the last draw. I love audio commentaries. Often, I buy crappy movies just for the commentaries with stars. Today's DVD of COLLATERAL DAMAGE was first announced to have a commentary featuring...

I believe that on Tuesday there will be three different versions of The Grinch for sale on DVD. Or is it four? I am a little confused about this and hope someone in the know could respond. First of all, there will be Full Frame and a Widescreen versions out on Tuesday. We all know many...

Columbia Tristar did a really good special edition of STARMAN, with commentary by John Carpenter and Jeff Bridges. But they're only releasing it in Region 2!!! They said that the sales in Region 1 weren't good enough to release it here, so we're stuck with the bare-bones edition. Please sign...

Criterion owns the rights to the audio commentaries that they recorded for films which they no longer own. I believe they mentioned they may one day look into publishing some of them in a book. However, would it also be possible (from a legal standpoint) for them to release these tracks on CDs...
