    Beetlejuice Sequel

    I was just thinking that it's odd that this hasn't been given a sequel. It's a very popular and well-liked film and it's an 80s staple. I wouldn't want Tim Burton to have anything to do with it. I don't like the way his career has gone. Take a pseudo-Gothic concept, throw in some CGI, a...

    Is Tom Hanks capable of playing the bad guy?

    This is a question that's been troubling me for the last few days. Few actors have the same track record for versatility as Tom Hanks but I've never seen him play the bad guy. Even when he played a gangster in Road to Perdition, he was the protagonist in a sympathetic role. There are a number...

    What was #1 the week you were born?

    I'm wondering if there are other people who are sad enough to know the song that topped the charts in the week they were born. Do you like the song? And do you feel the song says anything about you as a person? For me, it's Shakin' Stevens, Green Door which was released July 17th 1981. It's...

    Multi-Region Blu-Ray Players

    Following my recent discovery of a region A Criterion edition of Barry Lyndon in another thread, I've decided it's time to start looking for a BR player that will allow me to play region locked imports. Barry Lyndon and Five Easy Pieces are just enough incentive for me to make it happen. I've...

    VHS

    Anyone know of any places online where people still trade VHS tapes? Or if anyone trades them here? My local supply has dried up considerably over the last five years or so and I'm reluctant to buy from eBay and Amazon as I've had bad experiences buying video tapes from them. I'm hoping to...

    Silent Films

    I recently saw my first silent film (The Birth of a Nation) and I would like to see more but I'm not really sure where to begin. The Blu-Ray the film came on came with some Civil War related shorts which I actually enjoyed more than the main feature. Is there anyone here who is into silents...

    Forgotten Films

    I've been thinking about some of the films that haven't been released in BR and aren't likely to be in the foreseeable future. This thread is intended to be a place to talk about these under-rated gems. Please feel free to add any more films that you feel should belong here: Rasputin (1996) -...

    Just got hooked on Hi-Def

    I recently bought my first Blu-Ray player (cue music from 2001: a Space Odyssey) and I've been enjoying all my old favourites in HD. It all started when I found a cheap Hendrix HD-DVD at my local record store and got the HD-DVD drive for the XBox 360 for £5 from CEX. Got a load more HD DVDs on...
