Re: Oscar Contest 2024

Now that it’s closed and ballots are in, here’s my thinking… So this has been the most interesting year since Covid because all the releases have been so fragmented, which I guess has been a good thing — more eclectic choices — and a bad thing — you need to retain various services and keep taking tr...

Re: The New DVD and Blu Thread

Hahahahaaaarrr…! Had to go back a fair way to find an appropriate thread to post this totally useless piece of information! I saw a couple of contenders, and was just about to lament that it seemed we never had just a "general disc" thread, and this popped up! I guess the subject has fractured off i...

Re: Oscar Contest 2024

The only reason I leave mine so late is that I’m literally trying to cram in screeners and the final few biggies that I haven’t seen yet, but I did just enter once, last night. I'm sure there would be people trying to rig it somehow…such is the sad way of things it seems… :(

Re: Looney tunes return to the big screen in new animated film!

Which just goes to show how confused WB Animation and Looney Tunes is right now. Whoever paid and is putting it out, people will see "Looney Tunes" and associate it with Warners…and bang goes their "animation strategy" that Wile E didn’t apparently fit with… :roll:

Oh, hey! It’s on D+ here too! So much for the trouble I went through to borrow a screener!

Re: Oscar Contest 2024

Yeah…not sure this is your kind of thing, though… Did you see The Lobster and Killing Of A Sacred Deer? They’d be pointers towards if you thought you might enjoy it. It’s very graphic! I even had to look away at one shot early on (those that have seen will know the one). There are Burton-esque eleme...
