This is old, old news, so it's funny how it's been suddenly picked up by so many sites lately. I haven't the heart to methodically go through all my discs from that period, but I will be sure to find issues. It is another reason to upgrade to Blu-rays or 4Ks when possible. I did just find out my Tar...

Just came by to post this... two days after arguing with someone online about how unlikely it was to happen! I hope to be proven wrong!

Here we go!! https://scontent.fyqr2-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/485655455_1055430169960796_8498986846304991984_n.jpg?_nc_cat=106&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=127cfc&_nc_ohc=rVMcD50z_H0Q7kNvgEu1w36&_nc_oc=AdnGQmlDJfiaYOqI2EmhAevog302uUAKb-Ebyz0IrXvtFzBxdFXpEOVl3Bzz2AT0mC0&_nc_zt=23&_nc_ht=scontent.fyqr2-1.fna&_...

An Irish Times review: "The most distracting flaws are rooted in the problematic re-creation of animated material... The permanent magic-hour lighting is hard to look at. Worst of all, the decision to “cartoonise” the dwarves alongside human actors is hugely problematic." Yeah, turning human dwarfs ...

The important thing, natch, is that the spine looks good on the shelf.

I'm in for this, for sure.

Yikes. The back cover is way worse than the front cover.

It doesn't sound like you're really talking about plot, though, only appearances at best. I'm not convinced many changes were made to the actual story, and certainly not because of Dinklage's bizarre and uninformed comments. Perhaps there were story changes during production (as is often the case in...

if they never saw it before they hated it, then I'm not sure how compelling their case is.

And if they hate it now, then I just hope it's for the right reasons, meaning due to the film itself and not outside controversy.

Nice to hear. There will still be haters on principle, or those who genuinely don't like it, but it's great that some are loving it.

I just finished the second volume of Collector's Choice, and loved how many "non (main) character" shorts there were on it.

With the current Vault model, they have a winning concept - potentially one disc of largely one-offs new to disc, and one disc of HD upgrades of the big guns.

Blech.

Of the "new to disc" cartoons, we certainly will be looking at deeper and deeper cuts. There are not so many cartoons left of the major characters that haven't already been on either DVD or Blu-ray. Nearly every Bugs Bunny cartoon has been covered, we have 101 Porkys already, most of the Daffys, all...

"COMING ON JUNE 17th from THE WARNER ARCHIVE COLLECTION! LOONEY TUNES COLLECTOR'S VAULT Volume 1- The new collection will feature 50 animated shorts across 2 BD-50 discs. Disc One will contain 25 shorts never before remastered on DVD or Blu-ray! Disc Two will contain 25 shorts never before on Blu-ra...

The positive thing is that he died at home, perhaps even unaware of the passing of his wife. His last few days are certainly sad to consider, but he had a long and productive life, with a legacy that will last a long time.

Don't forget the atari force mini comics that came with the home ports of the arcade games also!

Don't worry, he didn't. Droo mentioned them in his post already.
