    UHD Review Moon Knight: The Complete First Season UHD Review

    I found it to be fun and entertaining. I had no issue with the editing, Oscar Isaac was terrific.

    Paramount+ Star Trek: Discovery - Official Thread

    Ah thanks, I must have missed that part. It was a creative bottle show. I’m liking this season quite a bit. It improves on the previous two seasons. They had promise but the writing just wasn’t there for me,

    Paramount+ Star Trek: Discovery - Official Thread

    The question that always bugs me about these episodes is why don’t the past selves remember what occurred? unless it caused an alternate t8me line branch or some such thing or the time line adjusted for it. It should have come to Burnham but then the suspense may be eliminated if it did already...

    Blu-ray Review Morbius Blu-ray Review

    Watched this on 4K-a lackluster by-the-numbers film. Heck, not even Jared Leto could figure out how he wanted to play it.

    Blu-ray Review Madame Web Blu-ray Review

    Well…not as bad as O thought it would be but still not a good film. On par with “Morbius”. Maybe they should stop trying to build a Spider-Man universe. That hasn’t really worked out for them though “Venom” was pretty good.

    Fantastic Four

    Technically four. He also showed up in Roger Corman’s production. Doom is a great character as well but really hasn’t been done right.

    UHD Review The Falcon and the Winter Soldier: The Complete First Season UHD Review

    The series has some flaws-it seems that there’s too much plot and subplot stuffed into this series but it does a pretty good job of balancing it all.

    Multi-part review of the Classic "Planet of the Apes" films (1968-1973) on Blu-ray

    It is indeed or was a big budget at the time. The original plan was for a society of apes living at our level but that was scaled back due to budget concerns. I have no issue with the action in the film. It was, after all, made in the late 60’s. i agree that Burton’s film had its own share of...

    Review of the Tim Burton "Planet of the Apes" film (2001) on Blu-ray & my take on the ending

    It was an awful movie. Great make up, great over-the-top performance from Tim Roth. Wanlberg is badly miscast. Promising opening and fell apart from there.

    Multi-part review of the Classic "Planet of the Apes" films (1968-1973) on Blu-ray

    Yes but I was referring to his return only since that’s what occurred in Burton’s film Not to the framing device.

    Blu-ray Review Starting Over – Blu-ray Review

    Reynolds had a run of making some really good movies before he started making movies like Cannonball Run (I’ll admit as entertaining as those kind of movies can be, they are, at least for me bad).

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Once Upon a Time in the West -- in 4k UHD

    Sorry to hear they didn’t do the wise thing and put it on a 100 vs. The 66GB. I’ll still pick it up but am disappointed they do the right thing but the $$ saving thing.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Once Upon a Time in the West -- in 4k UHD

    This is almost my favorite Leone film. It’s between this and The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. I go back and forth.

    It’s a blast. I really love Oscar Issac’s performance.

    Burton’s film borrowed the ending from the novel.

    Multi-part review of the Classic "Planet of the Apes" films (1968-1973) on Blu-ray

    For its time, it was a big budget Especially for a science fiction film. That changed with 2001 which was 10 million vs. The. 5 million (before advertising) of Planet. I disagree the second film is less competent- the film had its budget slashed just before shooting and Ted Post was a good...

    Multi-part review of the Classic "Planet of the Apes" films (1968-1973) on Blu-ray

    That was my take. While things were better at the conclusion of Battle, there was no guarantee it wasn’t just part of that loop.

    Multi-part review of the Classic "Planet of the Apes" films (1968-1973) on Blu-ray

    Didn’t they make a reference to the first film and arrive much later than Taylor? I haven’t seen it in decades.

    Multi-part review of the Classic "Planet of the Apes" films (1968-1973) on Blu-ray

    It’s been decades since I’ve read the novel but, as I recall, the novel’s twist is that the hero Ulysse returns to Earth flying over Paris and when they land, they discover Earth is occupied by apes. Serling’s original final draft was rewritten by Michael Wilson and retooled by him with the...

    Multi-part review of the Classic "Planet of the Apes" films (1968-1973) on Blu-ray

    in defense of what Paul Dehn tried to do with the sequels he wrote, I think that they did the best they could with the money and tools at their disposal. The entire series was a money grab. Nothing Unique about that or with sequels. In the case of the sequels, Paul Dehn worked with the elements...

    Blu-ray Review The Mask of Fu Manchu Blu-ray Review

    I don’t disagree. One can’t judge films today by contemporary beliefs otherwise we wouldn’t be able to watch anything. Just noting it. Much of that went over my head when I saw it as a kid.

    Blu-ray Review The Mask of Fu Manchu Blu-ray Review

    Fu Manchu is a camp fest. It’s also racist but it is of its time. Karloff is terrific chewing scenery at every turn.

    UHD Review Red Dragon – UHD Blu-ray Review

    I liked this less than Mann’s film and feel Norton was miscast. It’s a good film but I also feel the added screen time for Lecter was padding to justify having Hopkins.

    Blu-ray rot on many of my Blu-ray discs

    One of the concerns have I have with Blu-rays being made in Mexico has been their poor quality control. Wonder if that also applies to any disc rot as well?
