I would pay good money for a Blu-Ray remaster of the first 10 years of the Simpsons. Sadly I doubt that will ever happen.Edward Mass posted:I'll stop watching the Simpsons when something better comes on during its timeslot. Your move, television! You know what I used to do during the Simpsons timeslot? Watch good episodes of the Simpsons, you know, seasons 2-8

CPL593H posted:I really don't like those first two seasons. They're almost painful to watch, not just because the animation looks awful but because the jokes just aren't there and the episodes usually revolve around some kind of sentimental horseshit instead of comedy. I don't own them. I used to have that opinion of the second season, but I finally got around to picking it up a few years ago, and while it hasn't hit it's stride like season 3, it's a lot better than I remembered and has several of the classics. Season 2 is probably better than you remember it being. I definitely remember season 1 being pretty rough though, it's been forever since I've watched it though. It does make me a bit sad that I remember when watching reruns, season 1 was the worst you could do. ComradeCosmobot posted:Be careful what you wish for. Chances are they’d just dump the remasters they show on FXX. So if you like recropping to 16:9, and color correcting some of the older seasons (and, if I recall correctly, some occasionally dubious image processing), be my guest. Yeah, I'll pass on that one

Vinegar Syndrome for August is 3 blus: Shot (1973) quote:Semi-urban detective duo Ross and Wilson have been charged with taking down local drug kingpin, Blasi. After busting a low-level pusher, they convince his girlfriend, Sheila, to start working for them as an undercover operative in exchange for avoiding prison. But as Ross finds himself becoming romantically interested in his new, perpetually spaced out informant, Blasi continues to strengthen his crime empire, setting his sights on even loftier, and deadlier, ambitions. Wonder Women (1973) quote:While traveling to Australia, American detective Mike Harber (Ross Hagen) finds himself stranded in The Philippines and obliged to assist in solving the mysterious disappearance of a famous Jai alai athlete. After hearing from a witness that the man might have been kidnapped by a group of beautiful, hearse driving women, Mike quickly finds himself a new target of the Wonder Women, a group of martial arts fighting assassins who work for the mysterious Dr. Tsu (Nancy Kwan); an evil genius scientist who’s been collecting able-bodied men for use in her bizarre body part transplant experiments! Dear Dead Delilah (1972) quote:Back in 1943, Luddy viciously murdered her mother with an axe. 30 years later and freshly released from the state mental hospital, deemed ‘cured’ of her violent impulses, Luddy’s luck seems to be turning around, thanks to a chance encounter with the family of Delilah (Agnes Moorehead), the miserly matriarch of a large plantation estate. She quickly finds herself hired as Delilah’s housekeeper, but no sooner than her arrival at the cavernous and secluded mansion, grisly murders begin to take place. And worse, each time a new corpse is discovered, Luddy finds she is unable to recall her whereabouts at the time of the bloodshed. Could her old self be coming out, or is someone else trying to set her up for more sinister motives?

Egbert Souse posted:What's great is that his videos are amazingly well-produced, even for something he's doing just as a hobby. It's funny how there's this "professional" content that's full of time wasting garbage, while Mat is able to make a 30 minute video on a dead format in his garage that's riveting. That's because he shelled out enough for a quality setup. The biggest gripe I have about youtube and podcasts is production quality, just because anyone can put out something for free doesn't mean they should. Honestly I can't stand a podcast with consistently poor audio quality, which is the reason I've never gotten into it. Boywhiz88 posted:Went w “A Fish Called Wanda” and “Deep Red” for the Arrow sale. I’ve seen Wanda but Deep Red was kind of an impulse. My GF and I were at a revival showing of Basic Instinct last week and the theater ran a trailer for Deep Red that had her geeked. I’m in because I grabbed Suspiria but haven’t watched it so I figure why not get some more Dario, and the lead in Deep Red is the lead in Blow Up. Vinegar Syndrome, I give them money to just send me their latest blu-rays every month

ultraviolence123 posted:I have all four. The horror / exploitation discs are all good grimy 42nd street trash. I already had some of the DVDs for titles like The Cut-Throats, which is a movie I really enjoyed, so I didn't even think twice upgrading. The porn discs... depends on if you dig vintage adult movies. I'm old enough to remember watching Ribald Tales of Canterbury on VHS on a 6-hour SLP tape, so the jump in quality was massive. Kind of surprised that the first two sets are still available. I figured that they would've sold out within a couple of weeks. It's really only been the last ~6 months that the limited edition slip covers have started selling out at their standard 1,500 within a month, I get the feeling that Liquid Sky managed to put VS on a lot of people's maps. Teenage Fansub posted:HASPG is great, but the other four on that set don't really have plot sections compelling enough to outweigh the boring sex. HASPG was a blind buy in my first order from VS solely based on the title and I have no regerts.

Boywhiz88 posted:I figured I would just file it under A but the individual films could be sorted. I’ll proly go w the former but wanted to know how people handle situations like these. I like to file my stuff Alphabetically. I can't say I have any sets at the moment, but I would probably keep them together. Then again also I split up sequels based on titles, so Army of Darkness comes before Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2.

Boinks posted:All this talk of getting two copies of a movie in a box set scared me and I opened the Friday the 13th box set I've has laying around for months. Two loving copies of part 4 and no part 2. God damnit. I'm just shocked that some of you let your discs sit around unopened. The first thing I do every time I get them home is to open them up and examine them for damage.

Origami Dali posted:The Mangler is awful, even from a perspective that's very forgiving when it comes to trash horror. It's a weaker King story already, and as a movie it's one of Hooper's worst, which is saying something with poo poo like Night Terrors and the pilot to Freddy's Nightmares under his belt. The only saving graces are the gore and Robert Englund hamming it up big time. He was the only guy who seemed to know what this was. I always thought that the short story was an interesting concept, but it wasn't anything that you could make a single movie about, let alone three

I tend to watch a lot of Vinegar Syndrome's extras. What's left from some of their restorations can be sparse, sometimes they're just shots of promotional materials, Christmas Evil had the comment cards from a test screening, and when they have interviews with cast and crew that can be pretty interesting.

Basebf555 posted:As I've branched out into all different eras and genres of film, my time watching commentaries has gone way down because yea it always seems like my time would be better spent just watching another film. Back in college it was much easier to justify spending a few hours watching a commentary track because I was still basically watching the same handful of movies over and over. Back in 2003 when I had a DVD player, and started buying movies, a movie was an investment. If I was out shopping and saw a movie I wanted, I would have to stop and think about if I could really justify dropping $20+. If that fucker had 3 commentaries on it, I would watch one a week because I had nothing new to watch. These days if I'm out shopping and I see a movie I like and want to watch I can just buy it. Hell, a month ago I was at Walmart and saw the Terminator on Blu for $6, and it was the most expensive item I bought that day.

I had one built in Collectorz years ago but that was only for books, and they want you to have to buy separate packages for other media. All the free options for this sort of thing seem to be discontinued right now. I think my OG Doom House release is the only thing I have that's completely irreplaceable
