Spatulater bro! posted:I find it hilarious how the Salo BD (but not the DVD) recently became unavailable and people instantly began paying stupid high prices for it. Now it's back in stock. Woops. And what a treasure of a film that people will definitely want to watch more than a handful of times. It’s like paying hundreds for Metal Machine Music or something.

I have to wonder if that 100-page book includes the thousands of words of content from the website that they put up to explain the movie. The movie makes complete sense on its own but Richard Kelly has a reading of his own movie that requires extensive supplementation, which I think is also why he made the director's cut.

Best Buy was the only place to get the extended edition of Dune that David Lynch demanded he have his name taken off of--in non-anamorphic dvd format. It's lost to time forever now, probably.

ultraviolence123 posted:Another thing I hate about vinyl is it's a bitch to rip. I hate it when I buy something that's vinyl only and it doesn't include a digital download code. Waxworks Records rarely include codes, and it was really annoying to rip the soundtracks for My Bloody Valentine, The Prowler, Don't Go in the House, so on. A CD can be popped into my PC, and I have a perfect rip 10 minutes later. This is an aside, but it's an absolute travesty that the soundtrack for Don't Go in the House doesn't include that interminable "Struck by Boogie Lightning" disco song from the scene where he buys a shirt. I'd buy it for that alone!

Off-topic, but this is the only genuinely funny snl skit to ever exist. Somebody in the writers’ room has clear memories of watching premium cable late at night. There are too many details that are exactly correct for the era and genre: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rg7I-fVLm7I

I like how she starts talking faster at the end, like the enormity of the nerdiness of what her husband had done hit her all at once and she suddenly got embarrassed. I do see a few CRTs scattered through there that could be set up to play random poo poo. The whole setup looks amazing.

King Vidiot posted:I had a high school English teacher show us The Dead Poets Society and then made us write a short paper on which character we "identified" with. I couldn't write "none" so I... don't loving remember who I wrote about and barely remember that movie. What a waste of Robin Williams. I can't believe there wasn't a tv version teachers could have taped to use. Comet blurs out the dork on Michelangelo's David in the opening to the 90s Outer Limits.

Why isn't Mill Creek lower? Have they improved since the days of their 100-movie American-International Pictures dvd sets with transfers straight from VHS? I mean, maybe that's a reason to make them S-tier, given how much awesome schlock I got to see that way 2005-2012 from those releases.

About ten years ago, I walked into a non-chain dollar store and saw original 1982 Tron car air fresheners and stickers for sale, still in yellowed shrink-wrap, and I’ve regretted not buying them every day since then.

CelticPredator posted:I like the Incident at Lake County better than McPherson tape tbh. Maybe it’s nostalgia since that’s what I saw. But I like that there’s more alien shanagins. Isn’t Incident In Lake County the actual McPherson Tape (the one about a family actually called the McPhersons) recut into a fake Paranormal Borderline-style documentary by UPN? As I recall, the ending for the tv documentary of the aliens freezing the Space Cases kid and taking his camera happens in the middle and the end is a much creepier part of the aliens just walking into the house and the parents not caring while the kid freaks out as the video dissolves into static.

Wasn’t it a movie first that UPN bought and recut with narration and talking heads? In college, one of my friends found the director’s website and he had the original for sale along with the McPherson Tape, explaining that it was different from what UPN broadcast.

The first season is interesting as a loving recreation of early-80s media with some unexpected touches of deep character development, like the science teacher and Steve. As something entirely unexpected, it was a fun and compelling surprise. It can’t bear the weight of being a cultural phenomenon. The perfect way to watch it was to see it pop up on netflix with no idea what it is.

Kingtheninja posted:Bit late but I find stranger things to be a fun show. My biggest problem however, is they keep growing the cast and have trouble accommodating it. So they do things like split the core group for most of season 3, and the development feels thin. I read season 4 will have like 3 or 4 new characters and I'm just like "how do you plan to write for this many people?" The first season is expertly split between kids/teens/adults to do three different pastiches, but season 3 was very weak in how it divided the cast. Also, the science teacher is due to go on the adventure by now.

I only really liked the Guardians of the Galaxy ones and to some extent both Ant Man movies. Thor III was probably tied with those as the only good one I've seen. The parts of Spiderman II where it was just about a school trip led by Martin Starr were pretty good, and it has the only version of Mary Jane where I could understand why she would go for Peter Parker, but the rest of it was forgettable and had bad politics. That's my book report.

Xenomrph posted:Wait what? Think about how much file formats, editing software, and storage media have changed in 20 years and extrapolate that 40 years into the future. There are already media files that nobody can open any more because the software doesn’t work on modern machines. And I guess I don’t know how ssds change things, but physical platters aren’t really engineered for long-term storage. You’ll need a RAID setup with all kinds of redundancy and people going in regularly to swap out failed drives, which seems a lot harder than just sticking film cans in a salt mine for 80 years.

Casimir Radon posted:Avatar’s descent into obscurity has certainly been a trip. I remember when it was a huge deal for a short time and now nobody I know has said a word about being excited about it. Pretty sure Sam Worthington is making DTV poo poo nowadays. The fact that there’s an Avatar Land at a major amusement park like it’s star wars is amazing to me. It’s probably empty most days, or full of kids who have no idea it was a franchise.

I remember when the first one came out and there were people who spiraled into depression about the fantastical world of Avatar being so much better than the horrible real world and it being impossible to escape actual existence, and that was a good five years before human civilization began to spiral downward. I wonder what those same people would say now?

I just realized that the whale one is a closed loop like Terminator because whales go extinct in their timeline between the time they steal the last two whales in the 80s and when they reappear in the future. Captain Kirk killed all those people that got hit with the WUBWUBWUB thing.
