Suddenly I'm finding cheap previously viewed DVDs of the recent Star Wars movies in every store I go to... last night I scored The Last Jedi for $8.99, and I wanna go back for Solo next chance I get (unless someone beats me to it).
:buggedout: :buggedout:

score
Kubrick, Nolan, Tarantino, Wan, Iñárritu, Scorsese, Chaplin, Abrams, Wes Anderson, Gilliam, Kurosawa, Villeneuve - the elite

Mission: Impossible (1996), the 25th Anniversary edition on blu ray. I'm not sure what makes this the "25th anniversary edition"; maybe it's the special features that I haven't looked at yet; probably just some commentary track that they added on to commend the 25th anniversary of the movie or something. The blu ray transfer is terrible in some areas; particularly in the night time scenes where Tom Cruise's team is initially getting killed off; where some of the colors appear over-saturated and pixely, while other parts of the film look very well done.

If you have at least a 5.1 surround sound system, the movie sounds very loud now because it looks like they redid the audio in Dolby DTS which really packs a punch for a lot of home theater movies nowadays. But Tom Cruise and Jon Voight are still as cheesy as ever in this movie. I haven't actually sat down to watch this movie since 1999 ever since it went into syndication on everything from AMC to TNT throughout the 2000s, so I had forgotten how enjoyably bad that this movie is. I haven't watched any of the other movies in this franchise yet because I'm not a fan of Tom Cruise at all, but this is probably worth picking up on sale.

why would it be a bad thing if someone bought Lassie Come Home (1943)? it's a decent movie but it's not one i like enough to buy.

I actually don't know what's on the DVD yet, but I assume it's just trailers.

I recently bought a copy of Warriors Of The Wasteland, aka, New Barbarians (1983) from DigiView Entertainment for $4.50 on eBay, which I had previously picked up at the Dollar Tree, but lost it in the move about ten years ago....
Not sure if I should look for one in higher res, or if I should just stick with this low-res VHS rip....

Minari (2020) starring Glenn from The Walking Dead (2010).



The dialogue is mostly in the Korean language. I started watching it earlier tonight, but my wife wanted to watch it with me and didn't want to watch it tonight. I have to do what the boss says, so I'll watch it on another night.
