Re: CLOSE ENCOUNTERS 4K UHD/Blu-Ray $9
I missed the sale price, too! But thank you for the head's up all the same, Andy! I'll try to be quicker on the draw next time. It sounds like a great package.

Re: THE BATMAN - March 2022 - New Trailer
Already proclaimed as a masterwork by the same people who think every new comic-book movie is like the latest work from Lean, Welles or Truffaut in their prime, THE BATMAN looks the part -- and pretty much nothing else. The plodding pace and lack of humor become so grating and repetitious it's like...

Re: Spielberg Wants To Make a BULLITT Sequel -- in 2022
And that was okay with me the last time I saw that scene. It didn't seem like he was injecting one philosophy over another, but merely an observation of the co-existence of two alongside each other (I live that kind of existence now, but I am hoping for my wife to finally come around...and she does...

Re: Spielberg Wants To Make a BULLITT Sequel -- in 2022
It was at the time near Bush's end of term and Obama's rise that something must have shifted his thinking much more left that it did. I always saw him as a JFK Democrat up until that point, but certainly he's an Obama type now. This distinction for me, in the context of this this discussion, is imp...

Re: Spielberg Wants To Make a BULLITT Sequel -- in 2022
And virtually no one cares about BULLITT. Even among most movie buffs I've ever talked to it's the movie with "the car chase" and that's about it. It's not a popular, enduring picture unless you are a McQueen fan...and there aren't a lot of them out there anymore. That's just the reality....

Re: Remembering BRAINSTORM - Popular Mechanics Article
Superb article on the making of this "interesting" if not altogether successful Douglas Trumbull picture, with a lot of good information about how MGM tried to shut the film down and how close the film came to being unfinished. https://www.popularmechanics.com/culture/movies/a25654064/sci...

Re: THE SWORD AND THE SORCERER (1982) Finally Coming to 4K/Blu-Ray
A movie that had a fraction of CONAN's budget -- and came within $500,000 of OUT-grossing it! Now that's some fascinating trivia! I had no idea about its commercial success. I have tried to watch it on Amazon Prime, but can only find the MST3K (or RiffTrax?) version. What little I saw of it was pre...
