It definitely makes the light sources in the night scenes pop in a very satisfying way. Dunno, I kinda expect these very deep blacks and darkness from Mann at this point. That’s part of his aesthetic. Even old Miami Vice episodes lean into that lurking shadows/guns coming from the dark lurid look.

I ain’t upset, I think it largely works more often than not.

Picked up my Jack Reacher steelbook that I got for $cheap from BB. This is the first steelbook I've bought and tbqh I previously thought they were kinda gimmicky. But it's really nice, and now I'm gonna change my Top Gun: Maverick preorder from the combo pack to the steel book...

I had a conniption about buying the John Wick 1-3 Steelbook despite owning the first two on UHD. It looked so good but I couldn’t justify dropping the $50 or so.

Nowadays, Ive picked up UHDs I’m on the fence about on day 1 because it had a nice enough Steelbook. Looking at you Dr. Strange in MoM.

The Knives Out Steelbook was incredibly well-done. I picked up the Clueless Steelbook cause it looked good.

It’s such a smart marketing moves. Incentivize FOMO and it works.

The big dream release for me that will never happen is a comprehensive Hammer horror set. And it would have to be released in multiple volumes but just some sort of set where I could eventually own every horror movie Hammer did without having to track them all down individually.

Old Town Road to EGOT

Good Time came out 5 years ago today, so it would be cool to see Good Time on UHD, as it's currently only on Blu. It's got some pretty striking visuals, it was shot on 35mm (I think) and there's a UHD of Uncut Gems, so it's not out of the realm of possibility!

Scorsese's After Hours still doesn't have a blu-ray, and we're years into the 4k UHD format.

After Hours does have a page on blu-ray.com that says Criterion, though. :ninja:

I think Criterion did announce it a few years ago, there's probably some weird delay.

Yeah. That’s a pain in the dick. Seems Hammer’s stuff is all tied up in rights issues. Buying things piecemeal is annoying, especially when you find out you don’t particularly care for The Mummy’s Shroud for example. There’s crap in Universal Monster sets too, but it’s part of a set so it’s not a big deal.

Second Sight is releasing a The Mummy Blu-ray at the end of the month so I’ll probably grab that.
