I guess I gotta buy that for my library, because there's a non-zero amount of people who'll watch that. Might even end up being our most watched of the year!

Shout! is doing Streets of Fire on UHD now. I never bought the BR, and I have a soft spot for that goofy rear end movie.

gently caress. I accidentally bought two copies of the blu. I will have a very hard time justifying the 4K for that wonderful gem.

Is it Draculas that sustain themselves on blood from a boob or is it Draculas where they take off their top and have fangs for boobs?

Either way I'm in.

Can confirm in South Florida very little concern is given to what side of the road you’re on.

The upres from HD to UHD isn't as huge of a jump as it is from SD to HD. If they're working from the camera raw (or even intermediates with lower compression), upres'ing HD footage from the Thomson Viper to UHD can look amazing (i.e. Collateral, the new UHD looks amazing and the movie looks the best it's ever looked).

EDIT:

Except for the Sony CineAlta F900. Oof, footage from that camera is cursed but still looks pretty drat good on Collateral, so I have hope.

If David Lynch can take Inland Empire to 4K then Michael Goddamn Mann can take Miami Vice to 4K.

Do you find something comical about my appearance when I'm driving my automobile?
Also, since Miami Vice is 2.39:1, isn't there a chance you could get a higher resolution, assuming they caught a native image in that aspect ratio?

I got some DVDs at Half Price Books and just sat down to watch one, High Kick Girl. It has the original Japanese version and an English dub, but no subtitles or closed captions of any kind for either.

This is the first time I’ve encountered this. I’ve seen Japanese with hardsubs plenty of times, sometimes the Japanese companies would sometimes require that to discourage reverse importation. Including the original version without subs, without even dubtitles, is baffling.

Instead of the terribly dubbed High Kick Girl, I watched the next movie in the Years of Lead box. It’s about a cop who keeps getting into high speed chases and crashing because he’s not a good driver. His stupid bitch boss keeps yelling at him to stop doing chases just because he keeps crashing and injuring himself because he sucks at driving.

The Italians are an amazing people.

Well, of course I know him.
He's me.
With a few exceptions, almost entirely westerns, I can’t loving stand Italian movies. Especially stuff from the 70s-80s, it’s all just ripoffs of other better films or total nonsense where things just happen at random. People will talk about certain giallo films as being masterpieces of the horror or thriller genres and I feel genuinely dumbstruck as to how anyone can enjoy them as movies in a technical sense.
