Re: Disney & Lightstorm The Abyss, Aliens, True Lies 4K

Finally, we’ve learned from industry sources that the 4K Ultra HD release of James Cameron’s The Abyss (1989) in the UK has been cancelled, and for exactly the reason you think—the scene in which the rat is made to breath underwater. UK censors asked for the scene to be cut, Disney apparently wanted...

Doctor Who:60th Anniversary Specials

I was fortunate enough to see the the three 60th anniversary specials. I enjoyed the first and third one, but struggled with the second. I have yet to see the Christmas 2023 special. As I don't have Disney+, I will more than likely buy the UK releases. There is a rumour going around that the US rele...

Re: The Three Musketeers - Milady Trailer

US blu-ray release for the first part, 27th February.

I picked up my copy in London, a couple of weeks ago.

The second part has just opened theatrically in France and the UK, but I'll wait for the Blu-ray.

Re: Warner Bros., Paramount Talk Merger

I rarely watch Max, as I find the layout of the channel terrible. I much preferred the old HBO Max, where could find what you want, without having to trawl through all the lightweight dross that Max has. As for Disney+, I cut the cord with them several months ago. I just wasn't getting the value for...

Re: INVADERS FROM MARS (1953) Coming This Fall to UHD/Blu-Ray

They're "attached" in that they authored the disc for Ignite Films and apparently offered technical support plus distribution overseas. It looks like an Arrow disc when you load it up it has Arrow's menus and such. But it's not an Arrow release per se -- in the UK they will be distributin...

Re: INDIANA JONES & THE DIAL OF DESTINY To Rival "John Carter" As Disney's Biggest Bomb

A friend of mine called the film Indiana Jones and the Diarrhea of Destiny, saying it made Crystal Skull look like Raiders.

He wasn't that far wrong.

Re: The Avengers: The Tara King Collection – Imprint

My copy arrived yesterday. Hopefully they will be able to do something with the early episodes. I'm guessing there might be some news this time next year, going by the release schedule of the Rigg and Thorsen episodes. I also have Robin of Sherwood coming over. I I managed to find a copy of the Netw...
