Fag Boy Jim posted:yeah. You probably won't like all of them (Anderson is one of those directors where even people who love him usually dislike one of his films, though which one that is varies a ton), but they're all worth seeing. I like them all pretty equally. Oddly Bottle Rocket was my favorite for years, and is still up there (behind The Life Aquatic) solely because I like the character interaction in it so much. Definitely not the best directed, missing a lot of what makes Wes Anderson films so fun to watch, doesn't have an incredible soundtrack like the rest, but what is there I love. Darjeeling is probably my least favorite, but I still love it.

Slightly more recent interview from June of 2011: Tommy Wiseau posted:Right now we're fully booked for this year, but next year we have another tour. It's called "'The Room' Blu-ray Tour." We'll be releasing "The Room" on Blu-ray and we'll be promoting that. At the same time, and you can stress this, I encourage everyone to see it in the theater first. It's the best way to see it. I always say, 'You can laugh, you can cry, you can express yourself, but please don't hurt each other.'" I'd be a fool to trust Wiseau, but I refuse to believe that he wouldn't keep milking this thing like there's no tomorrow. As he should. But yeah, he's been saying that for a long time now so who knows. I cannot believe that I care. Dissapointed Owl fucked around with this message at 18:06 on Nov 11, 2011 |

The Tom Cruise Blu-Ray Collection is on sale at Fry's. It's a preorder that ships November 15th $19.99 for 5 movies (Collateral/Days Of Thunder/Minority Report/Top Gun/War Of The Worlds). That's $3.99 a movie. Budget shipping is $2.99 (at least for me) and sales tax for AZ, CA, GA, IN, IL, TN, TX , NV, and WA http://www.frys.com/product/6788845?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG That's $56.46 cheaper than buying them separately (at least on Amazon) Call Me Charlie fucked around with this message at 19:03 on Nov 11, 2011 |

The New and Improved Die-Hard Megathread This is probably a good time to ask: is the Die Hard blu-ray worth a drat? It's got a 3.5 for visuals on blu-ray.com, but they don't have much to say about it beyond 'it's an old movie, so it doesn't look as good as a new one.'

Wasn't it Die Hard where they released Alan Rickman's cable early purposely to get a natural reaction from his death scene? I mean, that's real film making.

It really does look amazing, just the detail in the fabrics and Worf's sash alone blew me away. The only potentially not-so-great part is that any flaws in makeup and set design will be really noticeable but I don't mind it.

Close-ups of Data will be downright frightening. I'm really interested in what they do with the episode about that addictive game. There were lots of effects in that one. I've got a list of my favourites. Can't wait to rewatch them, but it'll be years for all the seasons to come out.
