  1. I still need to get around to picking up the #4K #BluRay of #WimWenders' #WingsOfDesire.

    The initial UK release had subtitle problems, but #Curzon promptly fixed them...so I really should add it to my collection.

  2. Going to watch one of my favourite films of all time, but for my first time on #laserdisc!

    Think I'll go for the German soundtrack with the English subtitles.

  3. Going through the screenshot comparisons of the new Fight Club 4K...clearly Fincher is deeply insecure about his work. So many tiny pointless little changes; remove a pimple here, add a skyscraper there, move a TV aerial slightly, throw in some lens flares! Utterly bizarre choices.

    At least he's disowned Alien 3 so hopefully both cuts of that make it to 4K without being messed with.

  4. Somehow these are the "same" shot.

    Blu Ray first, 4K second.

  5. Let's have a quick look at the #Varan #laserdisc too. Much less of a kaiju than the massive #Godzilla set but still a lot of fun.

    Released in 1998 this Japanese disc contains the film spread over two sides along with the theatrical trailer. Letterboxed, Japanese audio, no subtitles.

  6. #Bearwood announced their new single, Our Land, a few weeks back, but it couldn't have arrived at a more relevant time.

    "This country I love was built with our hands
    This house is my home, this is our land

    There's no honor in destruction of war
    Time will crush you like all tyrants before"

  7. One of my favourite artists, #MarkoHietala has a new song just in time for spooky season...

    Frankenstein's Wife!

  8. Has anyone made a CassetteBoy style edit of #RishiSunak singing "Komm Susser Tod" from #Evangelion yet?

    It all returns to nothing
    It all comes tumbling down, tumbling down, tumbling down...

    It all returns to nothing
    I just keep letting me down, letting me down, letting me down...

  9. I'm way behind on this but at last I've finally caught up with #ThunderboltFantasy - The Final Chapter.

    Sad to see this epic wuxia / chunibyo puppet show come to an end...but it was one hell of a ride.

    Now please can we get an English language #BluRay release?

  10. Why did I go to the effort of getting the German release of #Dune?

    Well because it's the only one that comes with three versions of the film!

    -Theatrical Cut (#4K)
    -Extended TV Version (1080p)
    -The SpiceDiver Cut! (1080p)

    Yes! The #SpiceDiver cut on a real disc! Plaion actually worked with the editor to get their incredible #FanEdit on disc. Truly amazing!

  11. It's less than a week until #Highlander 2 day!

    July 16th 2024!

    I'll be spending most of the day driving so I guess I won't be doing much to celebrate...but if anyone wants a copy of my #fanedit for the day then drop me a DM.

  12. After a year of on again off again work I'm glad this project is finally complete just in time for 2024...the year of #Highlander2!

    Despite tinkering with video editing in various forms for close to 20 years this is actually my first completed #fanedit.

    Look out for #Highlander 2 Rebuild early next year!

  13. Just finished re-watching The Vision of #Escaflowne. It's still one of my favourite #anime, and the Blu Ray looks perfect.

    Maybe some day I should check out the film...but it looks very, very different to the anime so I'm not sure what I'd make of it.

  14. I've been rewatching one of my favourite #anime, The Vision of #Escaflowne, and last night we reached episode 19 with that epic ending.

    The beautiful artwork, the buildup, the character arcs coming to a head, all choreographed perfectly to Yoko Kanno's incredible "Chain."

    We were really spoiled with late '90s anime.

  15. As jarring as the black face scene in #HolidayInn is I can't help but feel that the alt-right would throw a fit hearing some of the lyrics of "Song of Freedom"

    "Free to sail the seven seas
    Free to worship as we please
    If the birds up in the trees can be free
    Why can't we?

    I'm bringing a song of freedom
    To all people wherever they may be

    Free to speak and free to hear
    Free from want and free from fear
    Sons of freedom far and near who agree, sing with me
    That all God's people shall be free"

  16. Just watched our first proper #Christmas film of the year; #HolidayInn. This year we upgraded to the #4K Blu Ray.

    I believe that they couldn't use the original negatives for this one so while it's not as stunning a revelation as Singin' In The Rain it's still a huge upgrade over the hugely compressed Blu Ray that had to share precious disc space with the colourised version.

  17. Not sure when I'll have the chance to listen to the whole of "One Of These Nights" by The Eagles in Dolby Atmos but I just had a listen to the first track and it's a very odd mix.

    The stereo vocals along with music is coming out of the front left and right speakers, while the centre speaker is on instrumental duty. Surround speakers are pretty much just backing vocals.

    I've only ever heard digitised versions of the old vinyl quad mix but it was more surrounding. Will check out the rest soon.

  18. Usual caveat that I don't have an Atmos setup so I'm listening to the 7.1 core of the Atmos Mix on a 5.1 system...so obviously not the ideal setup...but the track definitely sounds odder than other Atmos mixes I've listened to.

    Will be interesting to listen to the rest of the album when I get the chance.

  19. I think the weirdest change Fincher has made to the Fight Club 4K has been found.

    Curtain technology must have finally caught up to David Fincher's true intended director's vision in a way that just wasn't possible in 1999.

    Utterly unhinged.

  20. Just rewatched the excellent #LastNightInSoho and thoroughly enjoyed it again. It's just been added to UK #Netflix if you still haven't seen it.

    It's odd that I picked up on the #Paprika vibes first time round but didn't make the #PerfectBlue connection. #SatoshiKon was certainly an influence.

    Between the transitions and bombastic style of this film and the musicality and action of #BabyDriver I still think #EdgarWright would be the perfect choice to direct the #Highlander remake.

  21. I keep catching this ad on YouTube TV out of the corner of my eye and find myself wondering if they've remade #TheRoom with #TimothéeChalamet. I'm guessing it's actually for perfume or something. #TommyWiseau

  22. I also filled a couple of gaps in my collection of #Sayuri singles.

    I still devastated that she's gone.
