Creature Commandos looks like a R-rated version of Drak Pack.

Huh, I thought the second FF film was focused on Galactus. Guess I'll have to watch it again. I had no idea there were any recognizable supervillains in the third film. Just goes to show how bad the marketing campaign was. But then I think that's been a problem with a few Marvel movies. The...

International or bust I guess. The Fast and Furious films make big bank overseas, so maybe there's a chance.

The one thing about pacing in AOTC that I didn't like is the library scene, where suddenly the film bogs down to try to inject some mystery about the location of the clone factory. This seemed odd as the franchise has never been about mystery solving. Felt like a scene from an Indiana Jones...

Do you know if ViaVision/Madman releases of British shows are also region free? I've had my eye on their Minder set, and maybe The Sweeney and The Bill as well. I remember Kung Fu being on in syndication as a kid, but not sure if I watched it much. I think one's enjoyment today will partially...

I’m always surprised to see people say AOTC is their least favorite of the films. Anakin’s scenes with Padme and Palpatine are tedious, yes. But, unlike Phantom Menace, there is a series of cracking action scenes, most notably the big battle on Geonosis. And we get to see Yoda spring into action...

Sounds like what you need is a date who likes to mow lawns.

Doom has been used three times? I saw him in the first FF movie, but where else did he turn up?

More importantly, with Galactus have his huge purple hat?

I'd rather see a story about what Aragorn was up to before appearing in Fellowship.

Hunt for Gollum? Didn't that already happen in Fellowship of the Ring, albeit inadvertently? I'm confused as to where this would fit into the LOTR mythos.

Much better than the first trailer, but I still don't think they're selling the danger enough. Need to show people in actual peril, not just driving pickup trucks. Might do OK at the box office but a big hit would be surprising.

Some great points for sure. I would add a couple of caveats: 1) I think it is unlikely that many fans of the glamourous Ryan Gosling/Emily Blunt pairing would rush to watch the adventures of crusty ol' Lee Majors, so a physical media release does not necessarily have to be timed tightly with...

I'm sure the first film was big budget for the time. I'm just saying to me it doesn't quite convey the scale and sophistication of ape civilization (compared to the later animated series where we see a large, modern ape city), and the action is rather limited. I had hoped the Burton film would...

I'm not sure if the film's performance makes a big difference as to whether a TV DVD release occurs. There are substantial differences between the TV series and the movie, and maybe the studio didn't want the TV series getting released until the film was out for fear that it might turn off some...

Looks like Fall Guy 2 is a no go unless international saves its bacon.

I've got to get that Blu-ray set. Would love to hear commentaries. I too am really only into the first two films, the second being my favorite. Perfect blend of action and comedy. The third film isn't bad by any means, it just feels awkward and being pulled in too many directions. Also really...

It still happens sometimes though, even if not a concurrent release. In terms of type of property, the closest comparison I can think of is the 2017 Baywatch movie, which was followed a year later by the remastering of the series for streaming, and than the complete series was released on...

For a moment there, I thought there had been a Six Million Dollar Man/Streets of San Francisco crossover episode! What a concept! I imagined Douglas talking smack to Majors and getting thrown through a window, while Malden and Anderson tried to out-gruff each other. I nearly dove across the room...

Maybe they were trying to highlight the guest stars instead of the regular cast?

Thanks for the tip about the airings on H&I! Some years ago The Fall Guy was on Hulu, but I'm not sure if they had all the episodes. So it will be interesting to see if it will get a complete airing this time. About the '85 season, a lot of action-heavy series got the short end of the stick in...

Their initial lineup doesn’t suggest much focus on action series, but it would be great if they ran Battle of the Planets. It’s been forever since I’ve seen it on TV. Although, I have more recently watched it in its original version (Gatchaman), and that leaves me torn between the two. Love BOTP...

I wouldn't say every episode would keep one on the edge of their seat, but there's a lot of fun moments, such as this one: Don't know why nothing was released after the first season. I don't think the show has much pop music in it that would need licensing. Can't believe that season 1 sales...

I was being facetious, yes. The absence of a full series release continues to be quite puzzling though. It isn't even streaming at the moment as far as I can see.

If the original series is on there as a bonus feature then they've got a sale. Wishful thinking?

Thanks. I have really enjoyed many Twilight Zone episodes, bleak or not. But when it comes to buying series, I usually only get titles I think I might want to watch multiple times. And for rewatching, I generally prefer something a little more laidback and upbeat. So I'm fine with catching the...

That is phenomenal news!!! Everything Boomerang used to be, and maybe more! Hope my provider will carry it.

Uh-oh. Are they going to set most of the story on modern day Earth again? Didn't learn anything from the last film I guess,

It would have made a lot of sense in the late 90s, but it's an odd move for 2024. Hopefully a small role.

Voltron and Robotech have also been rumored many times. At this point I'm not so optimistic due to the fact that they would be very expensive to produce, and that the middling box office performance of the similar giant robot Pacific Rim movies was not too encouraging. Even Japan itself isn't...
