Re: YouTube Goodness

A rather well-done AI Star Wars fan film .. I'm particularly impressed with the expanded views of the chain-reaction destruction of the Death Star from within, during the first couple minutes; it definitely reframes that pivotal event "from a certain point of view" .. :o

Re: WB Archive Collection: Discs On Demand!

I found a pleasant surprise while poking around on Amazon, this evening:

The New Fred & Barney Show: The Complete Series from Warner Archive .. coming January 27th..! :)

This is a 2-disc Blu-ray set, with 17 episodes; presumably, the 'Schmoo' and 'Thing' segments (from F&B Meet the Schmoo and F ...

Re: Manga & Anime THREAD

AFAIK .. the Mei and the KittenBus 'sequel short' has never been screened outside the Studio Ghibli Museum in Mitaka, Japan.

and -- at least according to the above news article -- the upcoming screenings of this short will be limited to a newer Studio Ghibli theme park .. in Nagakute, Japan ...

I have the first volume of the DC Finest Crisis on Infinite Earths which was recently published -- it contains the first four issues of Crisis , interspersed with the various Crisis 'crossover' issues that coincided with them, so that they can be read as (something resembling) a continuous storyline ...

Re: Zootopia

I saw Zootopia 2 this morning; (an early preview screening).

This is a very enjoyable and worthwhile sequel! It preserves the 'feel' of the original, while also treading entirely new ground and building upon its very interesting world. The new characters are fantastic fun .. and there are (logical ...

Lackadaisy season 1 remains "in production" .. but indications are that it may be ready to start streaming soon..!

Here's a music video titled "Last Call" which shows off the Lacakadaisy speakeasy in one of its brighter moments. :)

Re: comic strips discussion

From what I've been able to observe, Archie is still publishing digests .. they're just no longer being distributed to newsstand vendors (supermarkets, drugstores, etc). Which is definitely a huge departure, for them!

But current issues of Archie digests -- there are a couple of Halloween digests ...

The lushly artistic 1985 film Angel's Egg -- directed by Mamoru Oshii -- has gotten a 4K remaster.

GKIDS will screen the movie in theaters on November 19th .. presumably to be followed by a 4K / Blu-ray release, early next year.

Re: comic strips discussion

40 out of 45 Peanuts TV specials in one boxed set is pretty darn great. :mrgreen:

and even having this 'missing' special available to view on YouTube still counts as a 'win' IMO .. (but only while it's still there, of course). :wink:

Re: YouTube Goodness


Yeah… that's [trimming the runtime of The Wizard of Oz from 102 minutes to 75 minutes] actually a deal breaker. What’s the point in that? Kind of feels like they converted a film, but couldn’t "afford" to do the whole thing.

Ironic if they cut out Over The Rainbow…! ;)


Apparently, it's a 'Las ...

Re: YouTube Goodness

I was a bit disappointed this evening to learn that the MSG Sphere presentation of The Wizard of Oz has been trimmed down to 75 minutes (versus the original film's 102 minutes) runtime.

That definitely wasn't mentioned at all in CBS News Sunday Morning 's story. :|
