Re: Cartoon Brew under new ownership

Any reason why the sudden urge/want/need to get out? Brew has been solid over the years, but has already had a bit of a bumpy ride from inception and then Jerry leaving. The thing is, it’s always had a voice, and that may be lost now, but hopefully the news and articles keep coming. Jerry's home ove...

Re: Disney Pixar's Elio

Important context question, then: what’s your first and last Pixar offerings…?

Re: Disney Pixar's Elio

Ah, more like Jan Pinkava on Ratatouille? He was listed, but in the scroll I think.

Re: Disney Pixar's Elio

So, like that Wonder Park thing, which wasn’t so bad if still surreal, Elio doesn’t have a fully credited director? That doesn’t bode well for any resulting movie, though would explain the "movie by committee" feel with its various influences and unoriginal feel. If anything, that it had to meet a r...

Re: The Best Of 2024

Your opinion, Geff — and I actually agree — but your behavior and language in several other threads has overstepped the mark this time, I’m afraid. After numerous warnings and requests to keep to our Forum guidelines, it’s the unanimous decision to remove your from our boards. Thank-you for your par...

Re: Criterion Collection

Yeah, CC for the win. And yeah, just saw about Tarp too! Very exciting, as we can finally get the exclusive LaserDisc commentaries again! Word is that StudioCanal will be doing a big box with stuff, so both will be mine in this case, because it’s Pap and I get everything Pap (even went to see them a...

Re: Criterion Collection

There will be a regular BD release of the CC edition, if that was concerning to you Ben. Hell, there'll even be a DVD release. :wink: An interesting note about the 4K release is that the 4K disc itself will contain not just Flow , but also Away as well. The blu rays, both the regular BD release and...

Re: Criterion Collection

Yeah, we knew it was coming, but not when…so this is good confirmation. Should just point out, though, that Curzon also have a nice Limited Edition coming to the UK June 30th, with (I’ll do it Dan style)… 4K UHD with the film and one Blu-ray with the film and special features Rigid slipcase with a d...

Re: MGM & Amazon In talks to bring He-man to live action again!

Every time I see something about this I keep forgetting that Travis Knight is directing. And how about that Nicholas Galitzine? This is how you build fan favor over potentially split reaction to casting, by being gracious, respectful of the franchise, and largely keeping your trap shut during produc...
