Re: Did you all skip the Oscars telecast too?
I haven't watched the Oscars (or even cared about them) in so long that I completely forgot about them this year! I saw a news article a couple days ago about Oppenheimer winning the Award for Best Picture, and I thought, "Has the Oscars ceremony already come and gone?" Oppenheimer is the ...

Re: STAR TREK Complete Original Series STEELBOOK Blu-Ray - $44
Thank you for the head's up, Andy - I picked this up! My brother bought a set of original series blu-rays used but they are the ones with new CGI effects. I watched a few episodes but much prefer the old special effects (low-budget though they were). I also don't care for the new sound mix on my bro...

Re: STAR TREK For Sale to Warner Bros.?!?!
Thank you, Andy! Thanks to your explanation I can wrap my head around this. It would be interesting to see what WB would do with Star Trek, especially if, as you said, it's developed by people who actually understand the franchise. I have been yearning for a return to the magic that made classic Sta...

Re: STAR TREK For Sale to Warner Bros.?!?!
Andy, why do you think Paramount would be willing to give up such a valuable IP? Are the current "Star Trek" TV shows performing badly? (I admit that I don't care for the current shows, but I didn't know how successful or unsuccessful they have been.)

Re: SUPERGIRL (1984) Improved German Blu-Ray
Thank you for letting us know about the upcoming Supergirl release, Andy. I'm also looking forward to your thoughts when you get the blu-ray. Eric, thank you for sharing some of the production history. I didn't know what an important part Superman was originally supposed to play. I also had no idea ...

Re: SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES and WATCHER IN THE WOODS Finally on Blu-Ray Via Disney Movie Club
Yeah absolutely not! I stumbled into seeing it to be honest, Chris. An email friend of mine was talking about it and talking as if he had seen it. I didn't know him well enough to just ask him but I said, so what, I'll just ask -- and then ask if he had it! lol. What else could be said but "no...

Re: SOMETHING WICKED THIS WAY COMES and WATCHER IN THE WOODS Finally on Blu-Ray Via Disney Movie Club
Wow, that's amazing, Andy! I heard there is a VHS copy of the Clayton rough cut in the Ray Bradbury Collection at Indiana University-Purdue, but that's not something they are going to interlibrary loan, lol. Your excellent analysis of the Clayton cut earlier in this thread answered most of my questi...

This is very interesting! Andy, have you seen the early rough cut of Something Wicked This Way Comes with the Delerue music?

Re: Warner Bros., Paramount Talk Merger
Thank you for your response, Andy, and for sharing your thoughts. I hadn't thought of MGM still licensing catalog titles even though they are under Amazon. I hope Paramount would have the same liberty (and interest) to do so. Yes, it is a great relief they aren't being acquired by Disney! I'm sorry ...
