It never stops.

People poo poo on Eli Roth and it feels justified most of the time, but he got those cannibals high by the main characters stuffing their weed stash into their friend's bloated corpse before it got cooked and that's the kind of stupid loving bullshit I'm 100% into.

But they've only announced an R-rated cut so far. I'm gonna hold my breath until they confirm the fully uncut version (which I'm assuming they will, but still).

That movie is an irredeemable piece of poo poo. Not because of the violence but rather because it's so tedious and boring. And aesthetically it's bland as gently caress. If you're going to make a Cannibal Holocaust rip off 30 years too late at least have it be interesting. There's so many things you could do with it and he just doesn't because he's too busy masturbating to his own edgy childhood. The movie itself has all the aesthetic flair of a lifetime movie. What a pile of poo poo.

Not sure if this has come up, but Dollar Tree has gotten a bunch of DVD/BD in their stores recently..

Mileage may vary, but on Blu-Ray I found copies of Robocop (original and remake) and on DVD Seasons 1 of Miami Vice and S1/2 of NBCs Wings and the Wilfred (US Remake) TV series.

I got that Kitano set someone posted a week or two back, and this is a petty thing but I wish the cases were consistent. Violent Cop and Boiling Point have these... interesting Ben Marra covers, but not Hana-Bi, which gets on my nerves.

The covers for Violent Cop and Boiling Point are loving terrible and there are a whole lot of nerds whining about them on the amazon reviews including some people who refuse to even own the movies because of the covers. I prefer a nice looking cover if possible but at the end of the day I hardly give a poo poo about it because it has very little bearing on the quality of the actual product and it's just going to go on a shelf where it won't be seen again. I've never understood why people spend so much time freaking out about video covers.

I'm seriously considering buying the two volumes of Pluto cartoons from the Walt Disney Treasures line for $100 just so I have all the animation releases from that series. Though, Vol. 1 tends to go for $50 and Vol. 2 for $100, so it's sort of a good deal. More reason to not slack on limited editions.

Looks like a bot created it because you have American Sniper on DVD for $20 (lol), then Ingmar Bergman's Cinema for $30.

Or it's the account of that weirdo who's tried selling his collection for a million dollars.

Even if it's legit you're not going to save anything because the shipping on everything is about 30 dollars.

God, I’d kill for UHDs of Boogie Nights, There Will Be Blood, Punch-Drunk Love, and The Master. PT Anderson makes such pretty movies. I know Punch-Drunk is never gonna happen considering Criterion just got itout on Blu-Ray a couple years ago. But man, TWWB and Boogie Nights would be so loving gorgeous.

When there’s issues like that, a US company should work with a EU one and put out a UHD disc just so they don’t have to deal with region locking.

not anywhere near. Dawn's international rights, from what I'm aware, are with basically sane copyright holders that like money pretty much anywhere it's been released outside of the US.

Kino Lorber just confirmed release dates for a ton of films, as well as confirmed stuff still yet to be dated.

Among these titles are some of the first new licenses from Universal and StudioCanal, which they've licensed over 100 films each for Blu-ray. Note that the "4K" designation just means they're working from a 4K scan or 4K master, not a UHD release. Though, they're hoping to have their first UHD release this year in addition to the Dollars Trilogy.
