kittycatgirl2k Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 Alice in Wonderland Comic Book: The Movie The Critic (Complete Series) Star Trek VI Time Bandits Thirteen That's all for this week, atleast what I have planned. Definitely, without a shadow of a doubt 4/6 of those anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 Dr Strangelove Superbit: I don't see a release or an annoucement for that title. I'll buy Best Defense but not until it goes on the bargain shelf. THe lack of supplements etc make this a perfect dvd to hit the bargain bin for $6 to $10. So nothing for me.

The Daisy Posted January 24, 2004 Report Share Posted January 24, 2004 Wow... I had no idea that 'The Critic' was coming out this week. That one is on my plate with the Dr. Strangelove Superbit at this point. Glen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Sheets Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 I'll definitely get Time Bandits. Not sure about Star Trek VI but I'm leaning towards getting it. I'm quite interested in Comic Book: The Movie but that'll be a rental. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark E Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 The Critic (Complete Series) Ah, I didn't know they were putting the whole series together, that's awesome. Worth it for the episode which has the Andrew Lloyd Webber musical parody (I've got a HUNCH that this stinks!) and the Misery episode.

kittycatgirl2k Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Dilbert: The Complete series hits this week too but I've only seen two eps of it and there's already a ton of DVD's on my plate for this week and next, so I don't know if its worth a purchase. The Critic is great though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan_E Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 Star Trek VI, the last one I'd be getting (don't care for NG stuff) And The Sailor Who Fell From Grace With the Sea, mostly due to . . . memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angry the Clown Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 This edition of Sunrise has an even better transfer than the Region 1 disc. That's interesting. Did the BFI restore it for the R2? There's a print that has been touring here in the UK, and it may be from the same source. I am hoping to see it theatrically at some point. My hatred for PAL 25fps deprives me of whatever superiority any domestic DVD release may bring however, since I just wont buy em. A shame as I have to wait until Belleville Rendez-vous appears on R1.... :? As for 27th releases: Alice in Wonderland The Critic Time Bandits I'll get Superbit Strangelove IF it is sourced from a new print.

exile Posted January 25, 2004 Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 The more I've searched for the Strangelove Superbit the less I find it. I haven't it at all at any of the etailers or retailers at all and they are not on the roundup at the other forum. I think it doesn't exist as it doesn't exist on the Superbit site.

Angel P Posted January 25, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 25, 2004 I can't seem to find the Strangelove SuperBit either but it was mentioned on one of the "coming soon" lists I frequent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan, here's a comparison between the R1 and R2 discs from DVDBeaver. The reviewer, Gary Tooze, gives the edge to the R1 because it's a tad sharper, but I think the tonality of the Eureka disc is better; look at the improved detail in the shadows. The R2 has the same extras, plus a documentary not found on the R1 disc, and they're all spread over 2 discs, yielding a higher bit-rate.

Chris Posted January 26, 2004 Report Share Posted January 26, 2004 Time Bandits There's ANOTHER version of Dr. Strangelove coming out? I'll stick with the one I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the documentary on the R2 is extensive, I will perhaps get it when it?s on sale sometime. For the film itself though, I'm just too pedantic to accept any film configured for 25fps. :? I appreciate the link though, Gary does some good comparisons on a lot of discs. It's a handy resource for those of us who carry more of a taste for classic and foreign films I must admit.

Calvin Posted January 27, 2004 Report Share Posted January 27, 2004 Star Trek VI for sure - can't beat $4.99 (that is with $10 in BB GC) I am interested in Comic Book:The Movie,but I need to know more about it. Alice in Wonderland eventually... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
