    Eleanor Coppola Passes Away at 87

    She did a great job on Hearts of Darkness and her book Notes was a good read. Rest in Peace.

    Joe Flaherty, ‘SCTV’ and ‘Freaks and Geeks’ actor, dies at 82

    He made many great characters on SCTV like Guy Cabellero, Count Floyd, Floyd Robertson, Sammy Maudlin and in classic The Grapes of Mud as Henry Fonda. And i liked his performances in 1941 and Stripes. Rest in Peace.

    Anamorphic movies being Pan & Scan on broadcast TV?

    I remember years ago a tv station was showing West Side Story and when it came to the scene where you saw the movie’s title it was “Vest Side Story” because the image was zoomed in? I thought that was very funny.

    Check It Out!

    I did see some of the episodes back in the 80’s too but for me it was ok and nice seeing Don Adams back on tv again.

    Thanks for the video and the Mad Wednesday print looks much better and love that ending of the horse singing.

    Blu-ray Review The President’s Analyst – Blu-ray Review

    Great review and a excellent film and already have the Kino disc and it’s a nice improvement over the Imprint release with brighter colors and better detail.

    It took a couple of viewings to like Alphaville when it was shown on tv and will buy the Kino disc when it comes out.

    Your thoughts on Kino-Lorber Blu-rays

    I liked Mad Wednesday and did enjoy Harold Lloyd’s funny performance and hope Kino might get the rights to release it on disc. My only copy of the film I have is a disc recording from a TCM broadcast and the print shown was in bad condition.

    Crawdaddy's "Random Thoughts" about Home Video, Film & TV

    Le Samourai is one of my favorites from Jean-Pierre Melville and wished he made more films but died at an early age of 55 in 1973. Will watch the TCM broadcast this weekend.

    Pre-Order The President's Analyst (1967) (Blu-ray) Available for Preorder

    Have the Blu-ray and did an a/b comparison to the Imprint release and this new Kino disc has brighter colors and more picture info on the sides and a sharper image. Great film and will keep both of them on my shelf.

    Even though the information is out of date I still enjoy watching Our Mr. Sun and it brings back memories of me watching it when I was a kid in grade school where they would show it many times.

    Blu-ray Review A Few Words About A few words about…™ The Last Tycoon – in Blu-ray

    I usually don't disparage other movie review web sites but the recent Blu-ray.com review of the film giving it two stars and calling it a "borderline surreal disaster" and a "cinematic catastrophes" is in my option completely wrong and do not agree. It's not a perfect film but have seen it many...

    Official 2024 Oscar Nominations And Discussion Thread

    I started to watch the Oscars back in the late 1970’s and watched them every year until about five years ago when I stopped. Just don’t care for most of the films that come out.

    A few words about...™ - All That Money Can Buy -- in Blu-ray

    Great film and one of the reasons I went into laserdiscs years ago was to buy the Criterion release which I still have. Bought the dvd and will get this new release soon.

    My guess is Jack Benny and he did join the Navy in World War I.

    What's On Your Mind?

    Last month AT&T internet was down for 3 days before i had to switch to T-Mobile because i work at home and could not wait for it to be fixed. Very disappointed at AT&T and for what they did to DirecTV.
