    3D Top 30 Must Own 3D Blu-Ray Releases

    Watched the anaglyph 3D version of "Last Man on Earth" last night. Pretty good 3D. Image is clear, audio clear. In the end, I'm not sure it's any more interesting than the flat version.

    UHD Review Moon Knight: The Complete First Season UHD Review

    Yes, good point. I'm glad we got the "good" Oscar, and not the "Star Wars" Oscar.

    UHD Review Moon Knight: The Complete First Season UHD Review

    I'm somewhat mystified by the positive reactions to "Moon Knight." It just seemed like a long drawn-out mess that, had it been well edited, might have made a good 125 minute film.

    'Alien' returns to theaters for a limited time, starting April 26th.

    I remember seeing this at the Arclight in Maryland when it was brought back at some point. Advertised as the original theatrical cut, we instead were treated to the director's cut. No thanks. Almost everyone in the theater was online at the box office for a refund after the show.

    A few words about...™ - Fletch & Fletch Lives -- in Blu-ray

    Fletch was amusing when new. Chevy Chase was funny. How the world has changed.

    Peanuts, Charlie Brown and Vince Guaraldi?

    There's a guy on YouTube who specializes in somehow wiping the vocals from the tracks of the TV specials, which makes for some really interesting (if a bit bumpy) listening.

    Vinegar Syndrome Dr. Terror's House of Horrors 4k Problem?

    I broke out the new 4k disc of "Dr. Terror's House of Horrors" and discovered that it would not play in my Sony unit. Put it in my LG player and it worked with no problem. Anyone else have this issue?

    I.S.S. (2023)

    Typical bad screenwriting: one nut on both sides. Good people die. Zzzzzzz.

    Alien: Romulus (2024)

    It HAS to be better than Alien: Covenant, which I felt was just a giant kick in the balls from Scott to fans of the series.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - Train to Busan -- in 4k UHD

    A lot of praise for this film among horror fans, of which I am one, but it was one and done for me. Every zombie film that cops the end of "Night of the Living Dead" gets a demerit.

    UHD Review A Few Words About A few words about...™ - The Abyss -- in 4k UHD

    My copy came from amazon today. I remember enjoying the film despite the preposterous moment when it really jumped the shark (for me) when Did I miss something? How is something like that even remotely possible? Seems like typical Cameron's typical weak screenwriting to me. Other opinions...

    Mr. Harris, the apostrophe police are on your trail! :) "own's" is neither a contraction nor a possessive.

    Press Release Scream Factory Press Release: The Island of Dr. Moreau (1996) Collector's Edition (Blu-ray)

    It's fun to play "spot Brando's double" on this film. Any time you don't see Brando's face, it's not him.

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

    First: Mark Wahlberg? Big dumb hole at the center of the film. Two: I'll take "Big Fish" any day.

    The most recent trailer was certainly more promising than the earlier ones. I'll bite.

    Madame Web (2024)

    When your star is not hiding her negative feelings about her film before it comes out, you are in trouble (Sony).
