iirc the end credits were changed and there's studio ads in them now

I heard that rumor too, so I popped my disc in and can confirm this is completely false. Maybe it’s something that can happen if you play it on an internet connected device or a PS5, but I’m seeing normal credits with the cheesiest early 00s metal.

Well, of course I know him.

The only time I’ve ever enjoyed the RE movies is that old RedLetter video where they marathon them with Rich and it’s basically just an uncut 20 minutes of him laughing uncontrollably at the Wesker fight.

yeah its probably just if your system is hooked up to the internet which if you are running an ethernet cable or a wifi signal to the UHD player loooool. I do it only for updates when I hear there is one other than that its never plugged in.

ive wanted to get into Chantal Akerman so this is going to be an insta-pickup next year.

I'm hoping Blood Simple is a prelude to more Coen Brothers. I'd love a Barton Fink 4K under their label.

Very jazzed about that Akerman set, I'd been wondering if something like this was coming along because the Eclipse set that I lent to a friend years back and wanted a new copy of has been unavailable for a while.

God help me, I bought a bunch of movies for Shout Factory’s SHOCKTOBER sale:

Halloween 1978 collector’s edition
They Live steelbook
Evil Dead (remake) collector’s edition
Candyman collector’s edition
Army of Darkness steelbook

All 4K.

And here this spooky movie month I was making a point to watch discs I own but hadn’t watched yet (to justify having bought them), and here I go buying more for the backlog. :shepspends:

Those are very very safe purchases though, it's not like you'll ever regret having them in the collection.

Hell yeah, those are all essential titles to own in my opinion. Even the Evil Dead remake (which I feel is actually Evil Dead 4), it's a really underrated movie. Nice and mean-spirited. My advice when it comes to movies is, just buy. You can never have enough movies.

The shining, paths of glory, and Lawrence of Arabia are my favorites so far. Pacific Rim is spotty but parts are amazing to watch on the 4k as well.

It's true - this really is the most responsible thing you can do. Make sure to buy enough for the free shipping, so that you can spend save even more money

i'm pretty sure i got quite a few emails from them? i definitely bought all of the carpenters they didn't and some other things.

also, will we ever get a uhd of 'wild at heart'? probably my favorite lynch and i really, really want it!

It's weird how tough it is to watch Wild At Heart. A Blu-Ray exists at least but it's not streaming anywhere. Would love for it to join the other Lynch releases they have in the Collection but I'm guessing there's some kind of rights issue going on.

Picked up The Trial, but I have to ask...does anyone know why so many Criterion 4Ks are lacking HDR or Dolby Vision? Pretty much most mainstream discs have one or both, but a lot of high-profile Criterions lack it.
