00:04:17.879 of work. But yeah, glad it's over. 76 00:04:20.040 --> 00:04:22.759 Well, I'm glad that something else isn't over. It was 77 00:04:22.959 --> 00:04:26.519 a while that Unsung WHRSE was off the airwaves for 78 00:04:26.519 --> 00:04:28.120 a little bit, and now you've been back at it 79 00:04:28.120 --> 00:04:31.040 almost a year. Has has the year gone? I've been 80 00:04:31.079 --> 00:04:32.480 excited here every episode. 81 00:04:32.759 --> 00:04:36.199 Yeah, it's been a good year. You know. We had 82 00:04:36.360 --> 00:04:40.959 a few guests back again. We just capped off No 83 00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:49.040 Rules November with Abraham Castillo Flores and we're taking December 84 00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:52.160 and January. Well, we have an episode coming out next week, 85 00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:56.000 but we recorded that at the end of November, like 86 00:04:56.040 --> 00:05:00.800 we take this time off. We'll be back in February, though, 87 00:05:00.879 --> 00:05:05.360 but next week is our end of year episode. Where 88 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:09.199 in the past we have shared you know, film discoveries, 89 00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:13.000 our favorite you know new to me watches. Neither Lance 90 00:05:13.079 --> 00:05:16.279 er I watch enough new movies to create any kind 91 00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:20.000 of like favorite twenty twenty five or lists, so they 92 00:05:20.040 --> 00:05:24.600 would just be ridiculous. But this year we decided to 93 00:05:26.079 --> 00:05:29.800 do something a little bit different instead do uh film resolutions? 94 00:05:29.839 --> 00:05:30.040 What? 95 00:05:30.199 --> 00:05:31.920 Which is what you and I are going to talk 96 00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:35.759 about later? My completely different lists though I made. I 97 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:40.759 made a lot of resolutions. I mean I made them 98 00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:43.199 like all easy, like they're all layups. You know, I'm 99 00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:45.759 not I'm not challenging myself in any way, shape or 100 00:05:45.759 --> 00:05:49.759 form next year, right, Interesting. 101 00:05:49.560 --> 00:05:51.360 I was wondering about that. I was wondering if they 102 00:05:51.360 --> 00:05:53.759 were going to be crossover what That's cool? That's no. 103 00:05:53.879 --> 00:05:56.240 You have you have you have a set and then 104 00:05:56.279 --> 00:05:58.759 I have a set for next week's episode. So everyone 105 00:05:58.800 --> 00:06:02.040 can hear all of my resolutions if they listen. 106 00:06:03.240 --> 00:06:07.480 That is exciting. Another thing, you have done seemingly more 107 00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:11.279 contributions than year this year than I thought you were 108 00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:14.399 doing at the time. But it is a busy year 109 00:06:14.439 --> 00:06:18.199 this year. Yeah what what? What releases you been on. 110 00:06:20.680 --> 00:06:24.560 I've got a lot of work on my Shaw Brothers 111 00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:29.600 this year, and a few of those I've I've done 112 00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:32.920 with Lance just because especially when i'm you know, we're 113 00:06:32.920 --> 00:06:36.000 doing commentaries. I'm not in a place where I'm I'm 114 00:06:36.000 --> 00:06:43.240 comfortable doing those on my own yet. But let's see 115 00:06:43.279 --> 00:06:46.720 we had Sorry, I have to look at my list, 116 00:06:46.720 --> 00:06:49.519 because I don't remember. I've done so many, it's just 117 00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:53.319 I have a really shitty memory. So Men from the Gutter. 118 00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:56.879 I had a visual essay on that, which we talked 119 00:06:56.879 --> 00:07:01.240 about when I popped in last time. That one's not 120 00:07:01.279 --> 00:07:02.959 out yet. It's not out yet. 121 00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:04.879 You can still tell us go right ahead. 122 00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:10.199 No, I don't even remember. What was this year? Was 123 00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:11.480 Possession of Joel Delaney? 124 00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:13.680 This year, I think, so, yeah, I think that was 125 00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:14.439 like April or May. 126 00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:17.000 Okay, Yeah, So that one was a lot of fun 127 00:07:17.000 --> 00:07:20.560 because I wrote about I had a booklet essay in 128 00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:27.519 that one, all about like Santoria, representation and film. And 129 00:07:27.560 --> 00:07:30.639 then I guess, I mean, I'll skip ahead to one 130 00:07:30.680 --> 00:07:33.399 other section. But I got. One of the things that 131 00:07:33.439 --> 00:07:37.920 I got recently was my Shaw Scares Box, my contributor copy. 132 00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.279 So Lance and I did a commentary for this one 133 00:07:41.399 --> 00:07:45.600 on Haunted Tales, which is funny because the other two 134 00:07:45.720 --> 00:07:47.759 that are on here, Sex Beyond the Grave and Hell 135 00:07:47.839 --> 00:07:50.959 has no boundary. We did episodes in August for our 136 00:07:51.160 --> 00:07:56.879 August So but yeah, I've got a few things I'm 137 00:07:56.879 --> 00:08:01.360 working on right now during our podcas pass break. Get 138 00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:06.920 those done early and very excited. I'm gonna be working 139 00:08:06.959 --> 00:08:11.120 on something with Will so people can look forward to that. 140 00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:15.600 And yeah, so it's it's been a good year, and 141 00:08:15.600 --> 00:08:17.560 I've got a couple other things lined up already for 142 00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:21.680 next year. But you know, we'll see how much I 143 00:08:21.720 --> 00:08:23.480 want to take on. I was already kind of getting 144 00:08:23.759 --> 00:08:30.079 burned out, and like our friend Ian Jane, who joins 145 00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:32.200 us every year for sh August and he's got a 146 00:08:32.240 --> 00:08:34.440 bunch of commentaries on the Arrow sets and the Shout 147 00:08:34.519 --> 00:08:37.639 Factory sets, even he was like, yeah, I'm a little 148

00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:40.320 burned out on Shaw Brothers stuff. I don't know how 149 00:08:40.320 --> 00:08:42.399 Frank Jang does it. Man, that guy's a he can 150 00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:47.960 he can churn it out. And I'm not doing anywhere 151 00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:50.879 near what either of them are doing. But even I'm 152 00:08:50.960 --> 00:08:58.320 kind of like, so, as long as you have an 153 00:08:58.360 --> 00:09:03.759 angle to approach it, where you know you're not just 154 00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:06.720 repeating the same names over and over again, I think 155 00:09:07.000 --> 00:09:08.919 I think there's something for that. So I just said 156 00:09:08.960 --> 00:09:11.039 yes to something that I was like, Okay, yeah, I 157 00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:14.120 can I can do something interesting with that, So I'll 158 00:09:14.120 --> 00:09:14.679 say yes. 159 00:09:15.159 --> 00:09:17.240 Well, and it sucks because we can't say the title, 160 00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.039 but I've not said this to you. I'm really excited 161 00:09:20.159 --> 00:09:22.200 for a terror Vision title that you've done that's not 162 00:09:22.200 --> 00:09:24.240 been announced yet. They should have been announced ages ago 163 00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:27.960 that I think might be the favorite thing that you've 164 00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:30.159 my favorite thing of yours that you've done, other than 165 00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:31.919 the book obviously, which is incredible. 166 00:09:32.279 --> 00:09:35.279 Yeah, well, I mean, yeah, I mean, I'm really proud 167 00:09:35.360 --> 00:09:37.799 of the thing that you're talking about. 168 00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:43.279 This sucks for TV, but however, Yeah, I'm really that 169 00:09:43.360 --> 00:09:46.000 whole release is going to be incredible. I cannot wait 170 00:09:46.039 --> 00:09:47.440 for them to be able to get caught up and 171 00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:48.320 get that announced. 172 00:09:48.440 --> 00:09:50.720 Yeah. I hope to see I hope it sees the 173 00:09:50.799 --> 00:09:51.600 light of day soon. 174 00:09:52.080 --> 00:09:54.639 It better. There's a lot of work done on that disc. 175 00:09:55.039 --> 00:09:57.000 All right, So let's speaking of discs. What have you 176 00:09:57.000 --> 00:09:58.519 been picking up lately, because I know you don't buy 177 00:09:58.519 --> 00:10:00.320 a lot of stuff and you're pretty selective, so I'm 178 00:10:00.360 --> 00:10:01.960 always curious to hear what you're choosing. 179 00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:06.960 Yeah, I yeah, I honestly, I'm I'm going back a 180 00:10:06.960 --> 00:10:09.440 little while, like this is not within like the last 181 00:10:09.440 --> 00:10:13.360 couple of weeks or anything like that. But I did 182 00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:17.200 during the last Criterion Barnes and Noble sale, I went 183 00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:22.120 and I got one, treated myself to one and I 184 00:10:22.240 --> 00:10:26.320 got this is one of the Janus contemporaries. Evil does 185 00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:29.279 not exist. I start to see that, there we go. 186 00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:32.519 I've never seen it. This was a blind buy for me, 187 00:10:32.720 --> 00:10:35.519 so I mean, I know that who the director is, 188 00:10:35.679 --> 00:10:42.879 and but yeah, I'm excited to watch this. And then 189 00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:46.840 I got John and I both ordered it not knowing 190 00:10:46.919 --> 00:10:49.840 the other person ordered it. So technically this is his 191 00:10:50.080 --> 00:10:54.919 pickup because I accidentally got the four K because the 192 00:10:55.159 --> 00:10:58.480 description did not say Blu ray on it. But Indicator's 193 00:10:58.519 --> 00:11:02.399 release of Hitchhike. I haven't watched it yet. It is open. 194 00:11:02.639 --> 00:11:04.559 I mean I've seen it in the past, but I 195 00:11:04.600 --> 00:11:06.919 have not rewatched this version of it yet. I did 196 00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:11.080 open it though, because I wanted to watch what was 197 00:11:11.120 --> 00:11:18.759 the special feature called Oh the Coldest of Dishes. It 198 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:22.320 was the documentary that Eugenio or Kalani did you know? 199 00:11:23.000 --> 00:11:26.080 He's my special features crush. So I was like, well, 200 00:11:26.080 --> 00:11:26.879 I'm gonna watch that. 201 00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:32.080 I love what Eugenia has been doing this year. By 202 00:11:32.080 --> 00:11:34.159 the way, he's crazy. 203 00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:40.960 He's everywhere, he really is and justifiably so. And then 204 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:44.519 from Arrow I got again this is from a little 205 00:11:44.559 --> 00:11:47.360 while back, the House of Laughing Windows. You can see 206 00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:50.799 it's shiny not opened yet. And then the Behemoth. 207 00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:55.360 It's a pretty incredible release. It's kind of crazy that 208 00:11:55.399 --> 00:11:58.159 by the fourth of these that they nail the one 209 00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:00.440 that I think everybody's like most excited. I did four 210 00:12:00.559 --> 00:12:00.919 so far. 211 00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:05.200 Yeah, this was that was like, Okay, I haven't spent 212 00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:07.840 a lot of money this year. I did not, you know, 213 00:12:08.039 --> 00:12:12.600 we didn't do Vinegar Syndrome this year. I spent some 214 00:12:12.759 --> 00:12:19.240 money at the Black Friday Sale and I was thinking 215 00:12:19.279 --> 00:12:22.639 about it and I was like, I bought four titles 216 00:12:22.720 --> 00:12:24.720 and they were all ones from this year. And these 217 00:12:24.720 --> 00:12:28.240 were the only ones that I was like, these were 218 00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:30.759 ones that I was bummed that we didn't have a 219 00:12:30.799 --> 00:12:34.320 subscription for. But I told myself, I was like, I'm 220 00:12:34.399 --> 00:12:36.440 just going to pick them up at the at the 221 00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:39.480 Black Friday Sale. It's

fine. And it was four and 222 00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:43.480 that was it. And then I was asking John if 223 00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:45.679 he had bought anything, and I think he only had 224 00:12:45.759 --> 00:12:51.440 bought like two things from Vineger Syndrome this year. So yeah, 225 00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:55.240 we haven't talked about whether we're subscribing for twenty twenty six. 226 00:12:55.279 --> 00:12:58.600 I don't think so. I know that's going to come 227 00:12:58.679 --> 00:12:59.080 up later. 228 00:12:59.320 --> 00:13:02.360 I think it is, and it's it's kind of hard 229 00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:04.080 because it seems like this year, I don't know if 230 00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:06.080 it was like catch up, but there was just a 231 00:13:06.080 --> 00:13:08.879 lot of it's a lot of upgrades this year. And 232 00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:10.600 that's I know you and I are on the same 233 00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:14.159 fence on that. It's like we'd rather discover something than have. Oh, 234 00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:16.320 this has been released five times over the last ten 235 00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:20.440 years across four territories or whatever. So it's tough. But 236 00:13:20.759 --> 00:13:22.840 on the one hand, and VS does this often. It 237 00:13:22.879 --> 00:13:26.039 seems like every other year is an incredible year, So 238 00:13:26.080 --> 00:13:29.480 you would think twenty twenty six might be great, but gosh, 239 00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:31.559 it's hard to put trust in that after this. 240 00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:39.080 Year, I mean I trust a lot of what they do, 241 00:13:39.440 --> 00:13:43.639 and a few years ago, even like this year twenty 242 00:13:43.679 --> 00:13:50.840 twenty five releases, I was more open to having you know, 243 00:13:51.039 --> 00:13:55.200 curation for me. Yeah, but I think I've just become 244 00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:59.080 so incredibly frugal in the last year a year and 245 00:13:59.159 --> 00:14:02.159 a half that I'm just like, I can't like let 246 00:14:02.159 --> 00:14:05.440 someone else pick for me anymore, Like I just I can't. 247 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:08.360 I need to have more control over where my money goes. 248 00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:11.879 So and that's really what it comes down to, because 249 00:14:11.919 --> 00:14:14.240 I kind of, you know, I miss you know that 250 00:14:14.279 --> 00:14:17.159 box showing up every month, and even though I know 251 00:14:17.200 --> 00:14:20.039 what's in it, it's like, still, you know, it's still 252 00:14:20.120 --> 00:14:26.240 nice having that, But I just I can't. I can't 253 00:14:26.320 --> 00:14:30.679 justify that that cost upfront, and especially in January coming 254 00:14:30.720 --> 00:14:35.360 off of the holidays, like because this whole, this pile 255 00:14:35.399 --> 00:14:38.000 that I just showed doesn't even like show like what 256 00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:41.440 I bought for John for Christmas and all that other stuff. 257 00:14:41.480 --> 00:14:46.320 So yeah, sucks. 258 00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:49.360 But obviously we both feel a lot of the same 259 00:14:49.399 --> 00:14:51.879 things about BS this year. I'm curious, are you I 260 00:14:51.879 --> 00:14:53.679 know you're still paying attention to everybody. Is there a 261 00:14:53.720 --> 00:14:56.679 label that still feels like they're curating to you in 262 00:14:56.759 --> 00:14:57.519 twenty twenty five? 263 00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:05.600 Radiance is really the one that every single thing that 264 00:15:05.639 --> 00:15:07.840 comes out, I'm like, I would love to own that. 265 00:15:08.279 --> 00:15:11.320 And there's a part and like, man, back when I 266 00:15:11.360 --> 00:15:14.000 had money and Radiance like first announced and they were 267 00:15:14.039 --> 00:15:16.240 doing that subscription, I was like, I should have just 268 00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:18.360 done it. I should have hold the trigger. 269 00:15:18.039 --> 00:15:20.519 On that that subscribed to the three year deal got 270 00:15:20.600 --> 00:15:21.919 a deal of a lifetime. 271 00:15:22.000 --> 00:15:25.799 I know it's yeah, hindsight and all that, but I mean, 272 00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:28.879 I feel like Radiance is really the one that stands 273 00:15:28.919 --> 00:15:33.320 out to me everything else is just sort of like oh, 274 00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:36.480 that's awesome, Like oh, what's that? And like ew no, 275 00:15:37.080 --> 00:15:39.799 you know, So it's just a mix across the board, 276 00:15:39.960 --> 00:15:45.559 with the exception of of Radiance. I do think that 277 00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:51.480 third window. I'm I'm really a big fan of a 278 00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:54.639 lot of their a lot of their releases too, but 279 00:15:54.960 --> 00:15:58.759 of the like the bigger name one, I say Radiance 280 00:15:58.840 --> 00:15:59.240 for sure. 281 00:16:00.360 --> 00:16:02.200 Well I'll throw out a couple of things that I've 282 00:16:02.240 --> 00:16:04.960 got to share. Not a ton came in this week. 283 00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:08.679 Finally got in the contributor's copy for this brand new 284 00:16:08.720 --> 00:16:11.399 Toxic Avenger Steel Did you I don't remember. Did you 285 00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:13.159 happen to see this year? I don't remember you talking 286 00:16:13.159 --> 00:16:13.559 about it. 287 00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:14.480 No, I did not. 288 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:20.840 I figured not, but it being fairly positively reviewed, I 289 00:16:20.879 --> 00:16:23.200 was curious if you would have seen it. This is 290 00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:24.759 still wild to me that we were able to be 291 00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:27.639 on a release of the Toxic Avenger and get involved 292 00:16:27.639 --> 00:16:31.039 with Tiffany Sheppis. It is mind blowing at me. I 293 00:16:31.080 --> 00:16:33.240 did not get to see this last year, but knowing 294 00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:35.320 how I love animation, I knew that I had to 295

00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:39.639 pick up Robot Dreams. This is supposedly incredible. Literally just 296 00:16:39.639 --> 00:16:41.600 got it in so yeah, I still sealed. Another one 297 00:16:41.600 --> 00:16:44.519 that came in with it is film Masters. I love 298 00:16:44.600 --> 00:16:48.879 the old like religious exploitation. That's not a word. What 299 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:52.120 should we call it? Christ Christ's there we go. I 300 00:16:52.159 --> 00:16:54.080 got in the Blood of Jesus that they put out, 301 00:16:54.200 --> 00:16:57.039 and I've been very curious about checking this one out. 302 00:16:57.080 --> 00:16:59.200 I love the art on this. That would make a 303 00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:02.840 really fun post. Yeah, and then I didn't share it 304 00:17:02.919 --> 00:17:05.440 last week I think or no, when Will was on, 305 00:17:05.480 --> 00:17:07.720 somebody was saying, you and Will, neither of you got 306 00:17:07.759 --> 00:17:09.759 any of these. I just want to share. I did 307 00:17:09.759 --> 00:17:11.880 get all of the Dan Curtis stuff from Keino because 308 00:17:12.039 --> 00:17:14.400 these were a must, but everybody was getting them, so 309 00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:16.400 I didn't want to share the same thing across the 310 00:17:16.440 --> 00:17:19.720 board as everybody. Yeah, what have you been watching? Because 311 00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:21.720 I know that you're not watching the same things I am. 312 00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:27.079 Uh yeah. So we'll get into this a little bit 313 00:17:27.160 --> 00:17:34.640 when we get into like resolutions. But I've been kind 314 00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:37.039 of mainlining a lot of Hong Kong stuff because I'm 315 00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:39.559 trying to get all of that out of my system 316 00:17:39.599 --> 00:17:42.839 this year so that I can focus on something else. 317 00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:47.640 So there's been quite a few Hong Kong movies, but 318 00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:50.599 in particular. I'm not going to bring up any of 319 00:17:50.599 --> 00:17:54.160 those because you again, I gotta go to my letterbox, 320 00:17:54.200 --> 00:17:57.720 because yeah, I don't know what I'm I don't know 321 00:17:57.759 --> 00:18:01.640 what I'm watching. One that I did really like, though, 322 00:18:02.119 --> 00:18:05.079 that I will bring up Hong Kong is The Secret 323 00:18:05.200 --> 00:18:14.920 from nineteen seventy nine, and we really amazing murder mystery, 324 00:18:15.880 --> 00:18:20.000 which this kind of this now, this doesn't spoil it 325 00:18:20.039 --> 00:18:22.920 a little bit. A lot of people compared it to uh, 326 00:18:23.039 --> 00:18:27.640 don't look now, and not just because there's a red 327 00:18:27.680 --> 00:18:33.680 coat involved with it, but just like the whole atmosphere 328 00:18:33.880 --> 00:18:36.559 of it very much feels in that vein. So I 329 00:18:36.599 --> 00:18:42.799 really enjoyed that. The Secret from nineteen seventy nine. I'd 330 00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:48.799 seen it before, but we went to a random not 331 00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:51.039 I wouldn't call it. It wasn't a plan double feature, but 332 00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:54.880 it was playing. They were both playing at Austin Film Society. 333 00:18:54.920 --> 00:18:57.480 We saw Strangers on a Train and a Chinese Ghost 334 00:18:57.519 --> 00:19:03.279 Story in the same of the fun Day Dang at Afs. 335 00:19:04.319 --> 00:19:09.160 I watched Beast of War. I watched a twenty twenty 336 00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:12.480 five movie, and you know what, I liked it. 337 00:19:12.920 --> 00:19:15.279 I'm so glad I've been eager to see this one. 338 00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:20.720 I well, here's the thing. I don't think it's great, 339 00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:23.359 but I know a lot of people really liked it. 340 00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:28.880 I liked it a lot more because I like shark 341 00:19:28.960 --> 00:19:38.079 movies and this one to me just having a practical 342 00:19:38.160 --> 00:19:41.319 shark in it. You know, it has so many just 343 00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:46.559 like you know, tropes of like other types of movies 344 00:19:46.559 --> 00:19:48.960 that I was just like, all right, this is tired 345 00:19:49.000 --> 00:19:51.400 and whatever, give me, just give me more Shark. I 346 00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:54.160 like the Shark very much that I ended up giving 347 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:56.839 the three stars, so which is good for me. 348 00:19:57.680 --> 00:20:00.240 Great modern Everyone clap. 349 00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:07.720 And then we're planning to go see No Other Choice 350 00:20:07.839 --> 00:20:13.960 on Christmas. So in order to get my my whook 351 00:20:15.319 --> 00:20:19.400 excitement turned up, we we watched Thirst the other night, 352 00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:21.519 which I had never seen. I'd been saving it so 353 00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:27.319 loved it. Can't wait to see No Other Choice. One 354 00:20:27.359 --> 00:20:29.240 of the highlights that I've I've ever one of my 355 00:20:29.319 --> 00:20:34.559 highlight movie going experiences was from Fantastic Fest a few 356 00:20:34.599 --> 00:20:38.079 years ago where Park Chen was there with his new 357 00:20:38.119 --> 00:20:45.799 movie and I went to see Joint Security area and 358 00:20:45.920 --> 00:20:51.920 it was amazing. He was there with Annie CHOI was 359 00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:56.160 translating for him, and I was I was at first 360 00:20:56.279 --> 00:21:00.200 upset that the theater wasn't filled, like not every seat 361 00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:02.359 was taken, and I was like, what are the people doing? 362 00:21:02.480 --> 00:21:03.559 Like Parcha Woke's here? 363 00:21:03.799 --> 00:21:06.559 Like yeah and chilling. 364 00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:12.279 Yeah. So but yeah, that was a great experience. And 365 00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:15.319 so I finally watched Thirst. It's one of those things 366 00:21:15.359 --> 00:21:18.400 where like I know it's going to be good,

he's less. 367 00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:21.599 So i'd been waiting and I was like, you know what, 368 00:21:21.680 --> 00:21:23.480 let's just watch it because we're going to go see 369 00:21:23.519 --> 00:21:26.400 No Other Choice at Christmas and I want to see it. 370 00:21:26.440 --> 00:21:28.200 So I don't know if you saw Josh's here too, 371 00:21:28.200 --> 00:21:32.279 by the way, Oh gay hi. So I got lucky. 372 00:21:32.319 --> 00:21:33.839 I got to see No Other Choice last month at 373 00:21:33.880 --> 00:21:37.519 a film festival, and I truly think you're gonna love it. 374 00:21:37.519 --> 00:21:40.680 It is such a big fuck you to capitalism and 375 00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:44.000 like the corporate world. It is great. It is very 376 00:21:44.079 --> 00:21:46.559 much needed. Right now, did you see? I think it's 377 00:21:46.559 --> 00:21:50.319 in New York. They're doing a special screening where CEOs 378 00:21:50.519 --> 00:21:52.720 of tech companies can come watch it for free. You 379 00:21:52.799 --> 00:21:55.119 just have to prove you're a CEO. And just the 380 00:21:55.119 --> 00:22:04.240 branding of that is hilarious. Go but I love the idea. 381 00:22:04.279 --> 00:22:05.079 It's so which fun. 382 00:22:05.279 --> 00:22:07.480 Yeah, what have you been watching. 383 00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:11.640 Sir, very different things, because my year has been things 384 00:22:11.680 --> 00:22:14.240 that I can't talk about. And then to kind of 385 00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:16.079 like blow off steam, I go and watch brand new 386 00:22:16.079 --> 00:22:17.400 movies and complain about them a lot. 387 00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:20.880 Oh I like to do that too. 388 00:22:21.599 --> 00:22:23.920 It's fun, but I like them a little more than you. 389 00:22:24.039 --> 00:22:25.799 So this last weekend I did see the new Silent 390 00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:29.079 Night Deadly Night. I thought it was fine. It's I 391 00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:31.279 actually like it more than the original. I've never been 392 00:22:31.319 --> 00:22:35.400 a big fan of the original one. It's just I. 393 00:22:35.319 --> 00:22:37.720 Haven't even seen it and that's like the worst take 394 00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:38.759 I've ever heard. Ryan. 395 00:22:38.880 --> 00:22:42.000 I'm not a big fan of the cheesiness of it. 396 00:22:42.039 --> 00:22:46.920 That's never been my thing. I'm sorry, So it's okay. Anyways. 397 00:22:47.240 --> 00:22:53.400 The other thing I have you heard of sarat Spell. 398 00:22:53.440 --> 00:22:57.519 It s I R a T. It's a Spanish film, 399 00:22:57.880 --> 00:23:00.400 and you would love it because there is a child death. 400 00:23:00.680 --> 00:23:04.319 Oh maybe I should not have said that, because it 401 00:23:04.440 --> 00:23:06.559 is a spoiler. It is. 402 00:23:06.759 --> 00:23:09.039 I don't care. It's always a spoiler when someone tells 403 00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:09.920 me there's a dead kid. 404 00:23:10.000 --> 00:23:12.160 So well I say that. But eight hundred people are 405 00:23:12.160 --> 00:23:13.519 gonna hopefully see this eventually. 406 00:23:13.720 --> 00:23:16.559 Oh well they should, you know, they should want to 407 00:23:16.599 --> 00:23:19.519 see it. For the right reasons, and that's because they're Oh, 408 00:23:19.559 --> 00:23:21.519 it's already in my watch list. That means did you 409 00:23:21.519 --> 00:23:22.599 already tell me about. 410 00:23:22.319 --> 00:23:27.079 This I might have This movie is kind of incredible. 411 00:23:27.200 --> 00:23:29.519 It starts off like deep in the heart of the 412 00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:33.480 rave scene in Spain, and it takes you on what scene, 413 00:23:33.799 --> 00:23:35.000 the rave are a ve? 414 00:23:35.559 --> 00:23:39.759 Oh v Jesus wow, I thought, yeah. 415 00:23:40.000 --> 00:23:47.759 Wow, this is not It is the rave scene and 416 00:23:48.039 --> 00:23:52.000 this child and his father they are on their way 417 00:23:52.039 --> 00:23:54.039 to they're at this rave. They're trying to find like 418 00:23:54.119 --> 00:23:57.440 the child sibling that the father's other child that didn't 419 00:23:57.559 --> 00:24:00.759 run away because they're like nineteen, but they've not known 420 00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:03.240 where this other person is for like five months, so 421 00:24:03.279 --> 00:24:04.799 they're trying to track them down and they're into the 422 00:24:04.839 --> 00:24:06.440 rave scene. So they went there to check them out, 423 00:24:06.599 --> 00:24:08.680 and somebody at the raves says, well, there's another one 424 00:24:08.680 --> 00:24:10.160 coming up if you want to go, like, we'll take 425 00:24:10.160 --> 00:24:11.759 you to the next one and you can check there. 426 00:24:12.119 --> 00:24:14.559 And the whole film is basically about the journey to 427 00:24:14.640 --> 00:24:20.240 this second rave, and this takes crazy turns. Things like 428 00:24:20.359 --> 00:24:22.839 I could have listed eight hundred things that I would 429 00:24:22.839 --> 00:24:24.599 think might be in this movie. There are things that 430 00:24:24.640 --> 00:24:27.200 have in this movie that would be like ten lists 431 00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:29.240 down from that. It's kind of crazy. You would like 432 00:24:29.400 --> 00:24:30.680 a lot of it, Okay. 433 00:24:31.720 --> 00:24:33.720 I hope it doesn't bring back any bad memories of 434 00:24:33.759 --> 00:24:35.279 when I used to go to raves. 435 00:24:35.720 --> 00:24:38.759 No, it's there's very little of that, very little of 436 00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:43.319 that fun But that's really funny. I'm sorry, Dustin. Dustin says, 437 00:24:43.359 --> 00:24:45.960 everybody hit yourself on the head to forget the serrot spoiler. Yeah, 438 00:24:46.079 --> 00:24:49.319 I won't even mention what it was. And then the 439 00:24:49.359 --> 00:24:51.880 other one that I watched that I want to talk 440 00:24:51.880 --> 00:24:54.039 about because I feel like harlelynybody's talking about this

is 441 00:24:54.160 --> 00:24:57.079 Left Handed Girl. This is a Taiwanese film that premiered 442 00:24:57.119 --> 00:25:02.000 on Netflix, shot entirely on iPhone, written by Sean Baker 443 00:25:02.519 --> 00:25:07.160 in part, and it is directed by Sean Baker's longtime collaborator, 444 00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:11.480 Shinshu Shoe. And it's very good. Another movie that is 445 00:25:11.599 --> 00:25:14.559 like very human, very set in a very time and 446 00:25:14.599 --> 00:25:16.319 place and you're just looking at a snippet of their 447 00:25:16.359 --> 00:25:20.680 life and it's directed very well, I will say, as 448 00:25:20.720 --> 00:25:23.880 it goes for a modern film. It is shot on iPhone, 449 00:25:23.880 --> 00:25:26.319 so it's not going to be like lush and textured, 450 00:25:26.559 --> 00:25:29.039 but there's something about this movie. The blues in this 451 00:25:29.119 --> 00:25:32.759 movie are gorgeous, and it made me want to just 452 00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:35.960 go visit like the markets in Taiwan. It is so 453 00:25:35.960 --> 00:25:38.920 so pretty to look at. Really great movie, good ending. 454 00:25:39.720 --> 00:25:41.720 I feel like they really nailed it with this one. 455 00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:43.880 Sean's a great writer, so I'm not really surprised there, 456 00:25:43.880 --> 00:25:45.359 but I truly liked it. 457 00:25:45.960 --> 00:25:49.240 I hope this goes somewhere besides Netflix. 458 00:25:50.400 --> 00:25:54.559 It probably won't, sadly, that's just how it goes nowadays. 459 00:25:54.960 --> 00:25:58.680 Fine. Also, I need to give credit. Bill is the 460 00:25:58.680 --> 00:26:00.920 one who told me about Sarah, so I want to 461 00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:02.319 make oh nice Nice. 462 00:26:03.000 --> 00:26:04.960 I'm glad Bill saw it because it does seem like 463 00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:07.240 one of the Bill was Bill would list on his 464 00:26:07.359 --> 00:26:10.839 end of year list. It's so good. Yeah, and Sean 465 00:26:10.880 --> 00:26:13.880 Baker's highlighting left handed girl all over the place, that's 466 00:26:13.920 --> 00:26:18.519 for sure. All right. Before we get into announcements, like 467 00:26:18.640 --> 00:26:20.599 Eric I said, after this, we're talking about our film 468 00:26:20.640 --> 00:26:22.960 resolutions for next year, things that we want to do, 469 00:26:23.079 --> 00:26:25.759 things that we want to focus on, just any like 470 00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:28.319 promise to ourselves we're making for twenty twenty six, and 471 00:26:28.359 --> 00:26:30.319 I want to hear everybody else's in the chat.

I am excited for you to 480 00:26:56.759 --> 00:27:01.480 be completely sequestered from the world. Let's get into it 481 00:27:01.519 --> 00:27:03.359 and you can hit me on the head again because 482 00:27:03.359 --> 00:27:07.680 our first discussion Tonight, Silent Night, Deadly Knight.

Is the main star. 489 00:27:24.680 --> 00:27:28.160 Here is Billy and the big thing. I thought Ruby Modine, 490 00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:32.640 Matthew Modine's daughter. She is like the counterpart to Billy. 491 00:27:32.680 --> 00:27:34.960 Here she is the Pamela. I thought she was really 492 00:27:35.000 --> 00:27:37.359 fun of this movie.

He 514 00:28:42.759 --> 00:28:45.480 was an incredible person and he got this stuff done 515 00:28:46.000 --> 00:28:48.400 early when they knew that they had signed these. He 516 00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:52.000 did this commentary a while back. He also hired Michelle 517 00:28:52.039 --> 00:28:55.160 Kisner to do the visual essay on this.

And that's the really nice 562 00:31:05.039 --> 00:31:07.720 part is when you screw up a side exclusive, nobody 563 00:31:07.720 --> 00:31:09.039 has to send emails. 564 00:31:10.240 --> 00:31:11.440 Good job lines, Kate. 565 00:31:13.480 --> 00:31:17.119 Next May fifth, Warner Brothers is releasing a four K 566 00:31:17.200 --> 00:31:19.519 steel book of the brand new IT Welcome to Dairy 567 00:31:19.640 --> 00:31:22.960 Season one.

I will see it 581 00:32:10.599 --> 00:32:15.680 someday hopefully. But yeah, the amount of time for watching 582 00:32:15.680 --> 00:32:17.839 a TV series takes up too much. There's so many 583 00:32:17.839 --> 00:32:18.720 other things to watch. 584 00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:21.279 Yep, agreed. 585 00:32:22.079 --> 00:32:23.599 That's also coming out in the UK, by the way, 586 00:32:23.640 --> 00:32:25.960 and it's coming out of standard Blu Ray no Standard 587 00:32:25.960 --> 00:32:29.079 four K, but check that out if you are into it. 588 00:32:30.000 --> 00:32:33.079 Next coming soon on Blu Ray from Kino is The 589 00:32:33.160 --> 00:32:36.880 Lost Man from nineteen sixty nine. This is a Sidney 590 00:32:36.880 --> 00:32:39.160 Potier film that I need to see. I've seen this 591 00:32:39.599 --> 00:32:43.480 poster many many times. I've always been very curious about 592 00:32:43.599 --> 00:32:46.200 the pose in this poster and how this fits into 593 00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:47.759 the movie. But I need to see this for sure. 594 00:32:48.759 --> 00:32:51.519 Yeah, I missed this one. They had a Sidney Poitier 595 00:32:51.599 --> 00:32:55.960 retrospective a few years ago at AFS and I missed it. 596 00:32:56.119 --> 00:33:03.039 So I hope to to see this one. And Celeste, now, 597 00:33:03.079 --> 00:33:05.000 I am not gonna watch it because it's a TV show. 598 00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:12.119 I don't remember, is there. I know there's a section 599 00:33:12.200 --> 00:33:14.160 on made for TV movies in the book if I 600 00:33:14.160 --> 00:33:16.480 remember right, but is there anything on TV shows or like? 601 00:33:17.039 --> 00:33:19.759 No there, I mean there are like made for TV 602 00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:26.599 movies in the book, and I included like a few 603 00:33:26.839 --> 00:33:31.680 movies that technically were TV shows but then got like, 604 00:33:32.319 --> 00:33:35.640 you know, they've now been collectively sort of decided like 605 00:33:35.680 --> 00:33:39.319 I would just call it a movie. Right, So there's 606 00:33:39.319 --> 00:33:43.000 some of that, but I'm not watching Welcome to Welcome 607 00:33:43.039 --> 00:33:47.039 to Dairy.

Same Adam says, 614 00:34:08.840 --> 00:34:11.519 I like Erica's stance against TV shows they generally suck. 615 00:34:11.599 --> 00:34:14.360 So you got a fan there, Okay, I mean I'm 616 00:34:14.920 --> 00:34:19.199 there are some TV shows that I like, but no, 617 00:34:19.320 --> 00:34:21.559 I can't remember the last time I actually sat down 618 00:34:21.599 --> 00:34:26.280 to watch anything new as a as a television show. 619 00:34:26.320 --> 00:34:29.400 That's also just comes with me not having any streaming 620 00:34:31.440 -->

Here is the art 624 00:34:47.480 --> 00:34:51.199 for that check it out. But this one's kind of cool. 625 00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:56.519 Over in Germany on Well today, Cape Light is releasing 626 00:34:56.679 --> 00:34:59.599 The Adams Family, the TV series that we were just 627 00:34:59.639 --> 00:35:02.119 shitting on TV series. There's a lot of TV series 628 00:35:02.159 --> 00:35:04.159 we're were good to talk about. Tonight, they're putting out 629 00:35:04.159 --> 00:35:06.079 the whole complete series on Blu Ray for the first 630 00:35:06.079 --> 00:35:09.119 time anywhere in the world. They have confirmed that this 631 00:35:09.159 --> 00:35:11.960 will be English friendly, so that is a plus. You 632 00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:15.159 can pre order this from Diabolic already, so if you 633 00:35:15.199 --> 00:35:17.159 really want this and you love the show, this will 634 00:35:17.199 --> 00:35:18.440 be the way to get it. 635 00:35:19.280 --> 00:35:27.440 Wait, let's say d Adams Family. Yes, why is it German? 636 00:35:27.920 --> 00:35:31.760 For the but family is not in German like it 637 00:35:31.760 --> 00:35:35.119 should be fam. I l I e for German. 638 00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:42.320 I believe when they copy the title itself, the it's 639 00:35:42.320 --> 00:35:44.599 not the subject whatever it is. The thes and the 640 00:35:44.639 --> 00:35:47.920 a's and and those are always translated to be different. 641 00:35:47.920 --> 00:35:52.920 But I think they keep the main thing. Sometimes I'm 642 00:35:52.960 --> 00:35:53.360 not sure. 643 00:35:53.519 --> 00:35:56.239 I don't like it. It is it is, and I 644 00:35:56.280 --> 00:35:57.880 still want it, but I don't like it. 645 00:36:01.480 --> 00:36:05.320 I get it. Yes, I do like this cover and 646 00:36:05.360 --> 00:36:07.119 I do like I will say one. 647 00:36:07.079 --> 00:36:08.119 We'll get it. D bart d. 648 00:36:11.360 --> 00:36:13.159 One big thing I love about Cape Light is that 649 00:36:13.199 --> 00:36:16.480 they advertise with this picture that the sticker is peelable. 650 00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:18.960 I really wish everybody would do that, so that you 651 00:36:19.079 --> 00:36:23.360 know that you're not buying something that's stuck there. All right, 652 00:36:23.840 --> 00:36:25.960 This one is interesting. You can pick up a Blu 653 00:36:26.119 --> 00:36:28.199 ray and DVD here in the US from a self 654 00:36:28.239 --> 00:36:30.880 published release of a film called Clocking the t from 655 00:36:30.960 --> 00:36:34.559 twenty eighteen. Now, one of the main reasons I posted 656 00:36:34.559 --> 00:36:36.559 this as an announcement is I don't think I've seen 657 00:36:36.559 --> 00:36:39.760 this

before. They are advertising for this. A part of 658 00:36:39.800 --> 00:36:43.039 these special features is that they're giving you all of 659 00:36:43.079 --> 00:36:45.760 the files for two dailies and they want you to 660 00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:48.320 be able to edit the scene yourself, so you can 661 00:36:48.360 --> 00:36:51.400 take it and be a filmmaker and like compared to 662 00:36:51.519 --> 00:36:53.519 what they ended up with, and you can make your 663 00:36:53.559 --> 00:36:55.280 own version. I think that's pretty cool. 664 00:36:58.599 --> 00:37:00.960 Yeah, I don't. I mean I wouldn't do it, and 665 00:37:01.000 --> 00:37:03.519 I don't have any interest in it, but I appreciate 666 00:37:03.559 --> 00:37:05.800 the hustle you put your own thing out, and I 667 00:37:05.840 --> 00:37:08.880 appreciate that this is something new and other people would 668 00:37:08.960 --> 00:37:10.199 want to do this, just not me. 669 00:37:11.920 --> 00:37:16.920 Yes, exactly. That next up a label that I don't 670 00:37:16.920 --> 00:37:19.119 think I've had to talk about in like ten months. 671 00:37:19.519 --> 00:37:22.679 Anti World's releasing over in the UK, which is like 672 00:37:22.719 --> 00:37:26.239 a sister company to Indicator, I believe January twenty sixth 673 00:37:26.239 --> 00:37:28.039 they are releasing a blu ray of a new film 674 00:37:28.079 --> 00:37:30.960 called Miss Mantler from twenty twenty five. This is limited 675 00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:33.440 to one thousand only. It will have the CD with it, 676 00:37:33.559 --> 00:37:36.400 and that is because this is a dark stream of 677 00:37:36.440 --> 00:37:39.559 consciousness fever dream that resembles nothing you've seen before. It's 678 00:37:39.559 --> 00:37:43.880 a collaboration between the director and Nurse with Wound, the 679 00:37:43.920 --> 00:37:46.760 band Nurse with Wound and so the film great of 680 00:37:46.800 --> 00:37:49.920 animated visuals for a live Nurse with Wound show. The 681 00:37:50.000 --> 00:37:51.920 main character of the Miss Manteler is taken from a 682 00:37:51.960 --> 00:37:55.519 collage by one of the individuals associated with it. It's 683 00:37:55.559 --> 00:37:58.920 a post apocalyptic landscape pictured in a number of major 684 00:37:58.960 --> 00:38:01.559 films that are now part of the collective Unconscious. You 685 00:38:01.599 --> 00:38:04.199 see Terminator of the Road are clear. Terminator and the 686 00:38:04.280 --> 00:38:08.719 Road are clear influences for this release. His obstinate close 687 00:38:08.760 --> 00:38:11.679 up dive into the physicality of surviving, however, is its 688 00:38:11.719 --> 00:38:14.440 own thing. This will have the audio CD, like I said, 689 00:38:14.440 --> 00:38:18.039 and then an eight panel digipack packaging featuring new artwork 690 00:38:18.280 --> 00:38:21.440 and limited to a thousand, but it is region free. 691 00:38:22.159 --> 00:38:24.880 I really like that they're doing this. This is pretty cool. 692 00:38:27.119 --> 00:38:29.559 I'm interested, but it does sound like a little bit 693 00:38:29.599 --> 00:38:33.719 too inside my own head, so yeah, I don't know 694 00:38:33.760 --> 00:38:34.480 how I feel about that. 695 00:38:36.639 --> 00:38:44.519 Brandon loving the band. Yeah, lots of people excited about this. Yeah, 696 00:38:44.559 --> 00:38:46.840 I have to admit I had never heard of Nurse 697 00:38:46.840 --> 00:38:52.880 with Wound before this announcement. All right. Next up, the 698 00:38:53.000 --> 00:38:55.920 newest Jackie Chan film, The Shadows Edge, is getting a 699 00:38:55.920 --> 00:38:58.559 four km blu ray over in the UK on February 700 00:38:58.559 --> 00:39:02.119 sixteenth from Sinney Asia. This is a twenty twenty five film. 701 00:39:02.519 --> 00:39:05.039 This I'll have a collector's booklet with an action feature 702 00:39:05.039 --> 00:39:08.480 at some music videos and then some directors and cast 703 00:39:08.679 --> 00:39:10.920 greeting clips. I read that. I was like, are they 704 00:39:10.920 --> 00:39:13.039 just saying hi and weaving? And that's the whole feature? 705 00:39:14.599 --> 00:39:18.079 A photo gallery, some trailers and that is it. Have 706 00:39:18.159 --> 00:39:20.719 you always been into Jackie Chan? Is this somebody that 707 00:39:20.760 --> 00:39:21.039 you like? 708 00:39:21.599 --> 00:39:22.239 Uh? 709 00:39:23.199 --> 00:39:23.280 Not? 710 00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:29.599 Since like the nineties? Like I love all like Police Story, 711 00:39:29.599 --> 00:39:33.480 all that you know that era Jackie Chan. Yeah, I 712 00:39:33.519 --> 00:39:36.280 have zero interest in this, Like I'm I'm not keeping 713 00:39:36.360 --> 00:39:40.159 up with Jackie Chan like he's got I try to 714 00:39:40.239 --> 00:39:45.960 keep my you know, artists separated from the artists, the 715 00:39:46.079 --> 00:39:48.559 art and all that. But you know, he's got some 716 00:39:49.079 --> 00:39:51.599 takes that I just don't care for. And I don't, 717 00:39:51.960 --> 00:39:53.719 you know, he's still alive, Like I don't. You know, 718 00:39:53.760 --> 00:39:55.960 there's people who are dead now that I'm like, wow, 719 00:39:56.000 --> 00:39:57.880 that was a shitty person. But you know, they're not 720 00:39:57.880 --> 00:40:00.679 getting any more money from me because they're dead. But 721 00:40:01.079 --> 00:40:06.119 I don't know, I don't. I don't have any interest 722 00:40:06.159 --> 00:40:08.480 in seeing in Jackie Chan in twenty twenty five movie. 723 00:40:08.639 --> 00:40:11.119 Not only does he have some takes, he's made some bad, 724 00:40:11.519 --> 00:40:18.039 bad choices. Yeah, that's enough about Jackie. Criterion announcements, I'm 725 00:40:18.840 --> 00:40:21.400 very curious to hear what you say about these. March 726 00:40:21.400 --> 00:40:23.960 twenty fourth, we get our most surprising one. We get 727 00:40:24.000 --> 00:40:27.440 a four K blu ray and DVD release of Killers 728

00:40:27.480 --> 00:40:29.440 of the Flower Moon from twenty twenty three. This is 729 00:40:29.440 --> 00:40:31.920 a Martin Scorsese film, of course. We get a brand 730 00:40:31.920 --> 00:40:34.480 new four K digital master approved by the director. We've 731 00:40:34.519 --> 00:40:39.000 got a new documentary featuring Scorsese, Leonardo DiCaprio, Lilly Gladstone, 732 00:40:39.199 --> 00:40:44.239 David Grant, The Osage Nation principal chief, Jeffrey Standingbear, Osage 733 00:40:44.239 --> 00:40:48.599 cultural consultant John Williams, the editor film a schoonmaker, and 734 00:40:48.719 --> 00:40:51.159 other members of the cast and crew. We've got a 735 00:40:51.239 --> 00:40:53.760 song for the Osage and new documentary illuminating the film's 736 00:40:53.800 --> 00:40:57.159 final shot, which I loved. We've got excerpts from the 737 00:40:57.159 --> 00:40:59.519 twenty twenty three can Film Festival press conference. We got 738 00:40:59.519 --> 00:41:02.880 a short pro on the cover art. We've got a trailer. 739 00:41:03.000 --> 00:41:05.719 Lots of stuff here, plus an essay by Vincent Cunningham 740 00:41:05.760 --> 00:41:10.159 and film programmer Adam Perrone. I know that a lot 741 00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:12.360 of people thought this was like, not surprising, it's a 742 00:41:12.400 --> 00:41:15.320 Scorsese film. However, this is a pretty big deal because 743 00:41:15.360 --> 00:41:19.639 this is the first time that Apple themselves have licensed 744 00:41:19.760 --> 00:41:23.039 something to another company. As far as I can tell, 745 00:41:23.199 --> 00:41:25.199 everything else that they put out that you're going to say, well, 746 00:41:25.239 --> 00:41:27.559 Apple stuff has been released before. Those were done by 747 00:41:27.599 --> 00:41:29.880 the production companies. Apple did not own the home video 748 00:41:29.920 --> 00:41:31.840 rights like F one earlier this year was a Warner 749 00:41:31.840 --> 00:41:35.719 Brothers home video release, not Apple, but I guess Coda 750 00:41:35.800 --> 00:41:38.119 coming out a month or two ago, that was the 751 00:41:38.119 --> 00:41:41.519 first big Apple physical media move. However, this was not 752 00:41:41.559 --> 00:41:44.360 a given them licensing. It is pretty cool. Did you 753 00:41:44.440 --> 00:41:46.320 get to see Killers of the Flower Moon? Is this 754 00:41:46.320 --> 00:41:47.639 something you were excited to see? 755 00:41:48.360 --> 00:41:51.000 I did see it in theater. I enjoyed it very much. 756 00:41:51.480 --> 00:41:54.679 I did not realize that this was a big deal 757 00:41:54.760 --> 00:41:57.639 because I didn't even know who owned the physical media 758 00:41:57.719 --> 00:42:00.519 rights to it. So I am happy for everyone that's for. 759 00:42:00.519 --> 00:42:04.280 This well and for everybody that was like, oh, finally 760 00:42:04.280 --> 00:42:06.760 it's on physical media. Don't forget this. Did have an 761 00:42:06.760 --> 00:42:10.800 Italian four K release that was readily available, and yes, 762 00:42:10.960 --> 00:42:12.840 I will be buying it a second time because there's 763 00:42:12.840 --> 00:42:16.840 so much about this that is important. The cover art, 764 00:42:16.880 --> 00:42:18.960 getting a featurette is important either way. 765 00:42:19.400 --> 00:42:21.000 Oh okay, so did a lot of people buy the 766 00:42:21.000 --> 00:42:22.760 Italian one because they didn't think this was ever going 767 00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:23.199 to happen? 768 00:42:23.760 --> 00:42:27.000 Yes, like Orbit, Diabolic and Atomic and a bunch of places. 769 00:42:27.239 --> 00:42:29.119 They all imported it and we all bought it up 770 00:42:29.159 --> 00:42:33.440 as soon it was in stock every time. And sip 771 00:42:33.519 --> 00:42:36.679 ted Lasso was not done by Apple. Actually it was 772 00:42:36.719 --> 00:42:42.159 a Produce Production RAND release. Yeah, that was not Apple themselves, 773 00:42:43.960 --> 00:42:45.840 all right. So that's Killers of the Flower Moon. That's 774 00:42:45.840 --> 00:42:49.760 the first title. Next up, March tenth, we're getting Verdiana 775 00:42:49.760 --> 00:42:51.960 from nineteen sixty one. This is coming on four K 776 00:42:52.039 --> 00:42:56.599 and Blu Ray from them. This was previously a Radiance release, 777 00:42:57.119 --> 00:42:59.719 and this is a Bunuel film. We've got a new 778 00:42:59.719 --> 00:43:03.679 four K digital restoration. We've got all the extras on 779 00:43:03.719 --> 00:43:06.239 here are extras that were on previous releases of this. 780 00:43:06.519 --> 00:43:08.960 I believe I may be wrong there, but I think 781 00:43:09.039 --> 00:43:11.320 that's the case. Boudoul I know that you've got a 782 00:43:11.360 --> 00:43:12.639 couple of things to say about Bonuell. 783 00:43:12.960 --> 00:43:16.559 Yeah, no, I'm a big fan. This is one that 784 00:43:16.639 --> 00:43:22.920 I would definitely add to my ever growing list. I'll 785 00:43:22.960 --> 00:43:25.519 buy it the next Criterion sale, I swear. 786 00:43:27.280 --> 00:43:27.400 Though. 787 00:43:27.480 --> 00:43:31.559 No, I'm excited to have this. He's somebody who's movies. 788 00:43:33.519 --> 00:43:37.840 Whenever I watch, I want to immediately rewatch him. But 789 00:43:37.880 --> 00:43:40.920 I also want to kind of sit with them for 790 00:43:40.960 --> 00:43:42.920 a while and then revisit it when I'm at a 791 00:43:42.920 --> 00:43:46.280 different point in my life, because I feel like the 792 00:43:46.320 --> 00:43:48.639 first time I watched one, I was way too young 793 00:43:48.679 --> 00:43:51.000 and I was like, what's this and I didn't quite 794 00:43:51.000 --> 00:43:53.920 get it. And I feel like I'm in a place 795 00:43:53.960 --> 00:43:57.000 now where they sit much better with me, especially after 796 00:43:57.119 --> 00:44:01.239 fucking twenty twenty five. Man like it very well with 797 00:44:01.280 --> 00:44:01.679 me now. 798 00:44:02.679 --> 00:44:06.320

Yeah, it makes sense, all right. Next up from Them 799 00:44:07.079 --> 00:44:09.599 March seventeenth, we were getting a Blu ray only of 800 00:44:09.880 --> 00:44:13.039 Testament from nineteen eighty three. For those that don't know, 801 00:44:13.159 --> 00:44:17.159 this is a nuclear themed film that is very good. 802 00:44:17.159 --> 00:44:20.559 This was released previously by Imprint. This has most of 803 00:44:20.599 --> 00:44:22.760 the excerpts from the Imprint release, but the Imprint disc 804 00:44:22.880 --> 00:44:25.760 does have a couple things that are missing on this one. 805 00:44:26.039 --> 00:44:27.559 So if you got that first one and you love 806 00:44:27.599 --> 00:44:29.679 this movie, which I don't know how much, this is 807 00:44:29.719 --> 00:44:33.559 a rewatch, but this movie is quite good. Have you 808 00:44:33.559 --> 00:44:34.480 seen Testament Erica? 809 00:44:35.000 --> 00:44:37.960 I have not. I will say that this artwork is 810 00:44:39.119 --> 00:44:41.599 like depressing and spot on. 811 00:44:42.760 --> 00:44:45.440 Yeah. I was gonna mention that because I saw a 812 00:44:45.440 --> 00:44:47.719 couple of people saying, what is this art or what 813 00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:51.719 is this poster or whatever? This is the poster it 814 00:44:51.719 --> 00:44:55.400 should be. It is harrowing. There are some new things 815 00:44:55.400 --> 00:44:57.360 on here. We got a new conversation between Litman and 816 00:44:57.400 --> 00:45:01.599 author Sam Wasawson. There is a couple documentaries on here. 817 00:45:01.800 --> 00:45:05.639 There's Testament at twenty which I really liked. This Testament 818 00:45:05.679 --> 00:45:08.760 at twenty featurette, so definitely something to watch. There's a 819 00:45:08.800 --> 00:45:11.400 couple of other things here than an essay by Michael Kresky, 820 00:45:11.719 --> 00:45:15.199 This movie is rough. There is you know so many 821 00:45:15.199 --> 00:45:17.760 people that will say I can never watch Threads again. 822 00:45:17.960 --> 00:45:22.599 To me, this is like a little more real than 823 00:45:22.719 --> 00:45:25.639 Threads and a little more difficult to rewatch for sure. 824 00:45:27.360 --> 00:45:30.159 All Right, well, I'm definitely not watching it this year. Right, 825 00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:32.119 I've had a rough year. 826 00:45:32.800 --> 00:45:34.559 That's all right. It doesn't come back to March. You're good, 827 00:45:36.719 --> 00:45:40.119 all right, I'm going to not exercise my French and 828 00:45:40.119 --> 00:45:42.320 allow Erica to say, on March seventeenth, we're getting four 829 00:45:42.400 --> 00:45:44.079 k in blu Ray, how do you say this? 830 00:45:44.199 --> 00:45:45.840 Erica Class two risks? 831 00:45:46.199 --> 00:45:48.880 Okay, that was way better than I would have This 832 00:45:48.960 --> 00:45:52.039 is from nineteen sixty and says, after hiding out Milan 833 00:45:52.079 --> 00:45:55.320 for nearly a decade, fugitive gangled gad, that's too far 834 00:45:55.360 --> 00:45:58.679 away from me to read. Fugitive Gangland chief Able Dapo 835 00:45:58.800 --> 00:46:01.760 sneaks back to Paris with children despite a death sentence 836 00:46:01.800 --> 00:46:05.280 hanging over his head, accompanied by appointed guardian Eric Stark. 837 00:46:05.760 --> 00:46:09.000 Fresh office start turn in Breathless is Jean pel Balmondo 838 00:46:09.639 --> 00:46:13.679 and beset by backstabbing former friends, Abel begins a throat grabbing, 839 00:46:13.719 --> 00:46:18.159 soul searching journey through the post war Parsian Underworld. I've 840 00:46:18.199 --> 00:46:20.360 never seen this movie. I don't think have you seen 841 00:46:20.400 --> 00:46:20.719 this one? 842 00:46:20.760 --> 00:46:23.360 I have not, but I am immediately and I saw 843 00:46:23.519 --> 00:46:26.599 Leno and Jean Paul Delmondo pop up, and I'm like, 844 00:46:26.800 --> 00:46:28.320 I'm already and I don't even know what this movie 845 00:46:28.360 --> 00:46:30.639 is about, but I'm in. This is something like I'll 846 00:46:30.639 --> 00:46:33.440 probably buy for John for his birthday or something. 847 00:46:33.519 --> 00:46:36.280 Yeah, that's a hell of a cast. Immediately, ah, and 848 00:46:36.320 --> 00:46:40.599 there was a BFI release. That makes sense. So this one, 849 00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:44.079 We've got excerpts from a two thousand and three documentary. 850 00:46:44.119 --> 00:46:47.400 We've got interview with the novelist and co screenwriter on this. 851 00:46:47.519 --> 00:46:51.639 We've got some archival interview footage essays by Bertrand Tavernier 852 00:46:51.880 --> 00:46:55.800 and been a reprinted interview with ste and a nineteen 853 00:46:55.880 --> 00:47:00.039 sixty two tribute by Jean Pierre Melville. And yes, I 854 00:47:00.079 --> 00:47:02.840 need to see this as well, Ronnie. It's not personal. 855 00:47:02.840 --> 00:47:05.039 I can't read French. I admitted to it. I'm awful. 856 00:47:08.039 --> 00:47:11.320 That is probably the worst language I deal with, which 857 00:47:11.360 --> 00:47:14.639 sucks too, dealing with immigration stuff, because honestly, there's a 858 00:47:14.760 --> 00:47:18.199 lot less French immigrants that come in than a lot 859 00:47:18.199 --> 00:47:19.960 of the other countries. So I deal with those languages 860 00:47:20.039 --> 00:47:23.880 much more often. All right, March thirty. First, I'm Blu 861 00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:27.360 Ray is a Man and a Woman from nineteen sixty six. 862 00:47:28.039 --> 00:47:30.119 This is not one that I've seen.

I was like, man, I need to 879 00:48:13.079 --> 00:48:13.960 go to the library more. 880 00:48:14.360 --> 00:48:17.320 Yeah, there was some What did I just I just 881 00:48:17.599 --> 00:48:24.079 order or requested a Tony Tony Jaw movie called Striking Rescue, 882 00:48:24.920 --> 00:48:30.760 and I requested it way back when someone first only 883 00:48:30.800 --> 00:48:35.960 there was a dead kid in it, more spoilers, and 884 00:48:36.079 --> 00:48:37.760 then they approved it and I was like, holy shit, 885 00:48:37.880 --> 00:48:41.239 all right, yeah cheer c U Austin Public Library.

Next up one that I'm excited for coming 894 00:49:08.760 --> 00:49:10.880 on March thirty. First, a four K blu ray release 895 00:49:10.920 --> 00:49:13.400 of The Blade from nineteen ninety five. This is a 896 00:49:13.440 --> 00:49:16.599 shoey hark film. Among the boldest accomplishments of Hong Kong 897 00:49:16.639 --> 00:49:20.039 cinema's golden age. This uniquely visceral martial arts movie puts 898 00:49:20.039 --> 00:49:21.760 a gritty new spin on the story of the One 899 00:49:21.920 --> 00:49:24.480 Armed Swordsman, an iconic figure from the moment he was 900 00:49:24.519 --> 00:49:27.760 introduced by the Shaw Brothers in sixty seven. And this 901 00:49:28.079 --> 00:49:32.159 is very divisive. Some people think this is awful, and 902 00:49:32.199 --> 00:49:34.239 then there are other people that are like, this is 903 00:49:34.639 --> 00:49:36.159 the masterpiece from the nineties. 904 00:49:36.880 --> 00:49:41.559 This movie's fucking great. I love this movie. If you 905 00:49:42.199 --> 00:49:45.519 like I mean really, if you like anything that Choi 906 00:49:45.599 --> 00:49:49.239 Heart did in the nineties, if you like Shaw Brothers, 907 00:49:49.360 --> 00:49:52.639 you know, or any type of like Wouja movies, like 908 00:49:53.679 --> 00:49:56.599 this movie is great. Yeah, I'm excited for this. I 909 00:49:56.639 --> 00:49:57.320 want to own this. 910 00:49:58.000 --> 00:50:00.199 I love the cover on this too. It's a this 911 00:50:00.239 --> 00:50:02.039 will look nice on the shelves of Barnes and Noble 912 00:50:02.079 --> 00:50:05.320 and call out to people for sure. We got a 913 00:50:05.360 --> 00:50:07.440 new commentary on here by the one that we mentioned earlier. 914 00:50:07.519 --> 00:50:09.960 Mister Frank Jang got to go sit I think he 915 00:50:10.039 --> 00:50:14.519 said that he sat in Oh gosh, maybe it was 916 00:50:14.519 --> 00:50:17.599 Francis Ford Coppola's office for this one to record it. 917 00:50:17.639 --> 00:50:19.920 They had him come down and do it. And it 918 00:50:19.960 --> 00:50:22.679 was that or Paul Schrader, one like a big director's name, 919 00:50:22.880 --> 00:50:24.159 and he's like, yeah, I got to sit at his 920 00:50:24.239 --> 00:50:27.320 desk and get this recorded for Criterion. It was nice. 921 00:50:27.559 --> 00:50:29.719 There's a documentary from two thousand and six on here. 922 00:50:29.800 --> 00:50:33.039 New visual essay by Taylor Ramos and Tony Jao the 923 00:50:33.239 --> 00:50:35.360 New York Asian Film Festival Q and A was Shoey 924 00:50:35.360 --> 00:50:38.079 from twenty eleven has some footage here and then an 925 00:50:38.199 --> 00:50:41.920 essay by Lisa Morton who is an author. Yeah, I 926 00:50:42.000 --> 00:50:47.760 definitely need to be this one right. Next, we've got 927 00:50:47.760 --> 00:50:50.679 some cool stuff coming out of Sweden which is rare 928 00:50:50.719 --> 00:50:53.960 for US to say, December seventeenth, Club Super eight, which 929 00:50:54.039 --> 00:50:57.159 is the one of the newer Ocean Partner label title 930 00:50:57.280 --> 00:51:00.320 Partner labels, which could indicate that this could get a 931 00:51:00.719 --> 00:51:03.559 US release from them eventually. That's not a guarantee, but 932 00:51:03.679 --> 00:51:07.039 just saying it's possibility. They are putting out a Nikatsu 933 00:51:07.239 --> 00:51:09.840 Sweden Poruno line is what they call it over there, 934 00:51:10.440 --> 00:51:12.440 and this first title is House of the Beast from 935 00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:15.320 nineteen seventy three. And for the record, if you are 936 00:51:15.360 --> 00:51:17.280 into these, you can go on their site and they 937 00:51:17.280 --> 00:51:20.519 are also selling a collection of all six films from 938 00:51:20.519 --> 00:51:22.719 this line that they're going to be doing, so you 939 00:51:22.800 --> 00:51:24.320 know that they're going to be

doing sex. We're only 940 00:51:24.360 --> 00:51:28.440 talking about two tonight, and it's slightly discounted. I will say, 941 00:51:28.440 --> 00:51:31.400 if you buy direct from their site, their stuffs pretty expensive, 942 00:51:31.519 --> 00:51:34.400 but you can usually get these from retailers like Diabolic, 943 00:51:34.440 --> 00:51:36.360 which I think you can pre order there right now. 944 00:51:36.639 --> 00:51:38.760 And then Brother Belisle should get them. Atomic should get 945 00:51:38.760 --> 00:51:42.079 them orbit should get them, so yeah, pretty cool. This one, though, 946 00:51:42.360 --> 00:51:45.880 Three escaped convicts rob a gunshop and Stockholm before heading 947 00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:47.840 into the countryside where one of them is hidden a 948 00:51:47.880 --> 00:51:50.599 stash of money. They seek refuge in an old manner 949 00:51:50.679 --> 00:51:53.159 and take the owner's hostage, but the family that lives 950 00:51:53.199 --> 00:51:56.519 there proves to be both bizarre and deprayed. Soon everyone 951 00:51:56.599 --> 00:51:59.559 is entangled with everyone else sexually and otherwise, until all 952 00:51:59.559 --> 00:52:02.760 boundaries collapse and it becomes unclear who truly holds power 953 00:52:02.880 --> 00:52:07.679 inside the matter. This says the director. Shogorro Nishimura made 954 00:52:07.760 --> 00:52:11.960 eighty five Roman Peruno films for Nikatsu between nineteen seventy 955 00:52:11.960 --> 00:52:15.199 one and nineteen eighty seven.

The hockey player Alan 977 00:53:27.639 --> 00:53:30.119 has problems with his frigid wife, maybe because she's stuck 978 00:53:30.119 --> 00:53:32.239 on the hockey rink.

Yeah I tried. Although Adam 1067 00:58:29.800 --> 00:58:32.880 in the chat seems a little disconcerted about the the 1068 00:58:33.239 --> 00:58:35.000 frequent discussion of dead children. 1069 00:58:35.239 --> 00:58:36.320 So that's true. 1070 00:58:36.559 --> 00:58:39.400 Sorry, guy. 1071 00:58:39.920 --> 00:58:44.239 It's the lessons be Eric Rbigadic.

Yes, I'm not fully against it. 1075 00:58:53.159 --> 00:58:55.960 If they were just available everywhere and people weren't like 1076 00:58:56.079 --> 00:58:58.519 gatekeeping them and saying

like, oh, just you know you 1077 00:58:58.559 --> 00:58:59.280 can't have them. 1078 00:58:59.760 --> 00:58:59.960 Yeah. 1079 00:59:00.199 --> 00:59:02.920 Now, if they're just easier to have movies, then I 1080 00:59:02.920 --> 00:59:07.440 wouldn't have to, you know, go roundabout ways. But anyway, 1081 00:59:08.079 --> 00:59:09.800 Bank this is exciting too. 1082 00:59:10.079 --> 00:59:11.920 It is, and it's kind of an interesting one to 1083 00:59:11.960 --> 00:59:14.320 dive into here. So February ninth, Hammer over in the 1084 00:59:14.440 --> 00:59:18.360 UK is releasing the film Crve the Banshee from nineteen 1085 00:59:18.400 --> 00:59:21.519 seventy on four KM blu ray. Now what's interesting This 1086 00:59:21.559 --> 00:59:23.679 is not a Hammer film. This is a film being 1087 00:59:23.719 --> 00:59:26.760 released by Hammer, not a Hammer film, starring Vincent Price 1088 00:59:26.960 --> 00:59:29.280 and it is one of Gordon Hesler and Chris Wickings 1089 00:59:29.320 --> 00:59:32.360 acclaimed run of films for aip UK. This has been 1090 00:59:32.400 --> 00:59:35.599 painstakingly restored by Hammer and four K from the original negatives. 1091 00:59:36.320 --> 00:59:39.239 We are going to have the original director's cut in 1092 00:59:39.280 --> 00:59:42.639 both widescreen and full frame aspect ratios and AIPS re 1093 00:59:42.800 --> 00:59:47.440 edited theatrical version, alongside new and archival materials. We had 1094 00:59:47.440 --> 00:59:50.199 a new commentary by Chris Alexander, new interview with Kim Newman, 1095 00:59:50.679 --> 00:59:53.320 our crivial interview with the director Gordon Hessler. And then 1096 00:59:54.079 --> 00:59:56.440 we need to talk about too, the fact that we've 1097 00:59:56.480 --> 00:59:58.639 got a brand new line to talk about. So this 1098 00:59:58.679 --> 01:00:01.920 is Hammer Presents. This is the first title in Hammer Presents. 1099 01:00:02.280 --> 01:00:05.199 And they have just by what they're doing and like 1100 01:00:05.320 --> 01:00:08.079 what they've funded for their restoration work and all that, 1101 01:00:08.400 --> 01:00:11.800 they've acquired a bunch of other catalogs and they can't 1102 01:00:11.840 --> 01:00:13.760 just release those under the name of Hammer because they're 1103 01:00:13.760 --> 01:00:17.840 not Hammer Films. So we have Hammer Presents. Every title 1104 01:00:17.880 --> 01:00:20.079 in the Hammer Presents collection will be sourced from brand 1105 01:00:20.159 --> 01:00:24.639 new HD restorations by award winning partner Silver Salt Restoration. 1106 01:00:24.880 --> 01:00:27.360 I kind of like that they are telling us who 1107 01:00:27.440 --> 01:00:29.760 is doing the restoration work. You've got a name associated 1108 01:00:29.760 --> 01:00:32.400 with it. Most companies do not say that they are 1109 01:00:32.480 --> 01:00:35.920 going to ensure that they're consistently at exceptional standards for 1110 01:00:36.000 --> 01:00:38.920 what they're releasing. Audio is carefully clean, visual detail from 1111 01:00:38.960 --> 01:00:42.639 the original film materials is preserved always. Each edition will 1112 01:00:42.639 --> 01:00:45.400 also feature a focused set of special features designed to 1113 01:00:45.440 --> 01:00:49.360 illuminate the film's history, craft, and cultural impact, giving context 1114 01:00:49.360 --> 01:00:51.719 for all of their releases. This will continue with future 1115 01:00:51.760 --> 01:00:55.239 releases spanning folk core, gothic terror, psychological thrillers, and cult 1116 01:00:55.239 --> 01:01:00.199 classics from across British horror specifically. And then they they 1117 01:01:00.239 --> 01:01:02.800 announced a second release coming soon will be a Blu 1118 01:01:02.920 --> 01:01:05.960 ray only released not four K of the incredibly strange 1119 01:01:05.960 --> 01:01:10.679 and unsettling Crucible of Horror. So you got something else 1120 01:01:10.719 --> 01:01:12.960 looked for? Cry the Banshee tell us about it. 1121 01:01:13.239 --> 01:01:17.800 I'm very excited. Well, I like Cry of the Banchee. 1122 01:01:17.840 --> 01:01:20.800 I'm not like, oh, like you know, must own, but 1123 01:01:21.159 --> 01:01:25.599 the fact that it's being presented by Hammer and all 1124 01:01:25.639 --> 01:01:29.320 of this, Like, have you bought any of the Hammers released? 1125 01:01:29.480 --> 01:01:33.880 I I will say the one Curse of the Vampire 1126 01:01:34.000 --> 01:01:36.440 that they did and Warner Archive did. I opted for 1127 01:01:36.480 --> 01:01:40.280 the Warner one or the Hammer One Blown Away. The 1128 01:01:40.639 --> 01:01:44.840 amount of attention into everything is astonishing. 1129 01:01:45.280 --> 01:01:48.719 Yeah, Like so we have three soon to be four 1130 01:01:49.159 --> 01:01:53.679 after Christmas, that's okay. John won't watch us, he won't know. 1131 01:01:55.760 --> 01:02:03.039 But those have been just nominal releases, like It's It's 1132 01:02:02.639 --> 01:02:05.719 It's It's a hefty price tag for one movie, but 1133 01:02:05.880 --> 01:02:08.599 the amount that goes into that, and you know, just 1134 01:02:08.760 --> 01:02:12.039 the book that goes in all of it, it's just amazing. 1135 01:02:12.159 --> 01:02:15.599 Like I think the quator Mess one he had also 1136 01:02:15.679 --> 01:02:21.199 had like three different versions of something I don't remember. 1137 01:02:21.320 --> 01:02:23.960 I don't have them next to me, but I would 1138 01:02:23.960 --> 01:02:26.280 have come more prepared if I knew, like this was 1139 01:02:26.800 --> 01:02:31.679 in the announcements tonight. But yeah, John, who keeps getting 1140 01:02:31.719 --> 01:02:36.800 mentioned is my partner. So the I'm excited about this. 1141 01:02:36.880 --> 01:02:39.159 I'm excited about this Hammer presents and that they're not 1142 01:02:39.199 --> 01:02:42.639 just doing their own films and that, and I hope 1143 01:02:42.679 --> 01:02:45.320 Kim Newman is on

every single release, just like Frank 1144 01:02:45.400 --> 01:02:48.840 Jang should be on every single Hong Kong release in 1145 01:02:48.840 --> 01:02:54.360 some capacity, then I would I think Kim Newman should 1146 01:02:54.360 --> 01:02:55.000 be on all these. 1147 01:02:55.320 --> 01:02:58.880 So I agree anything British Kim Newman should be on 1148 01:02:58.920 --> 01:03:00.719 for sure. 1149 01:03:00.280 --> 01:03:03.000 Anything I could listen to talk about any movie.

Ryan, 1330 01:12:52.279 --> 01:12:54.479 come on, I get it, I get it. 1331 01:12:56.920 --> 01:12:58.319 Sorry, what was your best? 1332 01:12:58.600 --> 01:13:02.079 It's all right, let's talk about animes April fourteenth. There's 1333 01:13:02.079 --> 01:13:04.680 a Blu ray coming from g Kids of Colorful Stage, 1334 01:13:04.760 --> 01:13:07.920 the movie A Miku Who Can't Sing from twenty twenty five. 1335 01:13:08.359 --> 01:13:11.439 You've got twenty after show concerts, unit two D music videos, 1336 01:13:11.479 --> 01:13:14.880 non credits openings whatever. All those means. I don't know 1337 01:13:14.960 --> 01:13:17.760 anything about this. Enjoy I'm going to the next one. 1338 01:13:17.800 --> 01:13:19.560 Good for people who are fans. 1339 01:13:20.640 --> 01:13:24.520 Yes, all right, the big controversy of the last twenty 1340 01:13:24.560 --> 01:13:28.000 four hours. Imprint Films in Australia has announced that they 1341 01:13:28.000 --> 01:13:31.840 are changing their release for Halloween one through five, four 1342 01:13:31.920 --> 01:13:35.680 case steel books that were coming in that pumpkin holder 1343 01:13:35.840 --> 01:13:38.640 set that was supposed to light up and so. Their 1344 01:13:40.800 --> 01:13:43.359 statement here says, it has been a long road to 1345 01:13:43.359 --> 01:13:46.840 Halloween one through five, with our planned October release pushed 1346 01:13:46.840 --> 01:13:49.359 out to December due to manufacturing delays and then many 1347 01:13:49.439 --> 01:13:53.079 challenges along the way. Unfortunately, we have found a manufacturing 1348 01:13:53.199 --> 01:13:56.319 flaw at the final stages of shipping with our limited 1349 01:13:56.439 --> 01:13:59.279 edition Jack O Lantern packaging. This has led us to 1350 01:13:59.319 --> 01:14:04.479 cancel distribution of this release at all. The unacceptable structural 1351 01:14:04.520 --> 01:14:08.279 defect compromise the integrity of the pumpkin packaging only and 1352 01:14:08.319 --> 01:14:11.039 in no way affects the discs or the steel books themselves. 1353 01:14:11.479 --> 01:14:14.880 This discussion or sorry, this decision has not been made lightly, 1354 01:14:15.079 --> 01:14:17.840 but

ultimately, as the packaging did not pass our rigorous 1355 01:14:17.920 --> 01:14:20.680 quality standards, we cannot allow it to market in good conscience. 1356 01:14:21.000 --> 01:14:23.640 Despite the setback, we are pleased to be reimagining the 1357 01:14:23.640 --> 01:14:26.880 collection with this a brand new, limited editional steel book 1358 01:14:27.000 --> 01:14:30.520 library packaging. They will be housing those in that it 1359 01:14:30.520 --> 01:14:33.199 will also be limited to two thousand like this first release, 1360 01:14:33.399 --> 01:14:37.640 and it will ship in get this mid May twenty 1361 01:14:37.680 --> 01:14:41.680 twenty six. For a release that people pre ordered this summer, 1362 01:14:42.439 --> 01:14:44.760 was scheduled to come out in October, got pushed back 1363 01:14:44.800 --> 01:14:48.560 till December. Now they are not coming until May of 1364 01:14:48.640 --> 01:14:53.920 twenty twenty six. That is a huge delay. They say, 1365 01:14:54.239 --> 01:14:58.800 just to come out October of twenty twenty five. Ooh yeah, 1366 01:14:58.840 --> 01:15:00.960 and the first delay pushed it to supposed to be 1367 01:15:01.079 --> 01:15:03.760 this week. So we'll talk about the behind the scenes 1368 01:15:03.760 --> 01:15:06.079 details behind that in a second. They say, to our 1369 01:15:06.119 --> 01:15:08.640 loyal online customers, thank you for your patients on this journey. 1370 01:15:08.680 --> 01:15:11.359 We sincerely apologize for the significant delays and last minute 1371 01:15:11.399 --> 01:15:13.960 pivotal plans. You've all been emailed directly and have been 1372 01:15:13.960 --> 01:15:16.560 given the option to receive the newly repackaged limited edition 1373 01:15:16.640 --> 01:15:19.840 Steel Book Library collection with a partial refund, or you 1374 01:15:19.840 --> 01:15:21.880 can get a full refund, so they're giving you they're 1375 01:15:21.880 --> 01:15:24.960 giving you options. There at least any refunded units will 1376 01:15:24.960 --> 01:15:27.760 become available for the wider public to pre order in January, 1377 01:15:28.399 --> 01:15:31.199 once the needs of our existing customers have all been served. 1378 01:15:31.520 --> 01:15:34.159 And here is a picture of that Steel Book Library 1379 01:15:34.159 --> 01:15:37.640 that they are now releasing with all five of the 1380 01:15:37.680 --> 01:15:40.880 first five Halloween films housed in this steel book library. 1381 01:15:41.279 --> 01:15:44.760 So yes, originally announced as coming in the back of 1382 01:15:44.800 --> 01:15:47.640 a pumpkin that lights up, now it is coming in 1383 01:15:47.640 --> 01:15:50.159 a steel book library collection that You've seen a handful 1384 01:15:50.199 --> 01:15:55.720 of these out there, I'm sure this is. This is 1385 01:15:55.800 --> 01:16:01.600 lit the boutique blu Ray industry community online on fire essentially. 1386 01:16:02.840 --> 01:16:06.119 So the big things here. The refund they're offering people 1387 01:16:06.600 --> 01:16:09.640 is fifty dollars Australian to go from the light up 1388 01:16:09.760 --> 01:16:13.000 pumpkin to house them to this which in US money 1389 01:16:13.840 --> 01:16:18.960 thirty three dollars. That's the refund that they're offering, or 1390 01:16:19.159 --> 01:16:24.840 you can get a full refund. So I like the options. However, 1391 01:16:25.920 --> 01:16:29.439 I would say thirty three dollars US is way not 1392 01:16:29.680 --> 01:16:32.600 enough for a change like this. I think it should 1393 01:16:32.600 --> 01:16:34.479 have been probably more than double that. 1394 01:16:36.439 --> 01:16:38.680 Did they have like a mogup of what the pumpkin 1395 01:16:38.800 --> 01:16:41.600 was supposed to look like, I'm curious, you don't know, fee. 1396 01:16:41.520 --> 01:16:45.199 Like they did it was a literal picture of like 1397 01:16:45.239 --> 01:16:48.199 a spirit Halloween esque plastic pumpkin, and then on the 1398 01:16:48.239 --> 01:16:51.279 back was just like this steel book library, like five 1399 01:16:51.399 --> 01:16:53.319 slots in the back of a pumpkin to hold the 1400 01:16:53.359 --> 01:16:56.199 five steel books, and it had a little switch on 1401 01:16:56.239 --> 01:16:58.319 the cord to light it up while it's sitting on 1402 01:16:58.399 --> 01:16:59.800 your shelf, so. 1403 01:17:00.119 --> 01:17:03.479 You put the discs in the pumpkins butt essentially. 1404 01:17:03.680 --> 01:17:09.239 Yeah. So yes, this was due out in October a 1405 01:17:09.319 --> 01:17:12.720 couple months ago, got delayed to December. And now here's 1406 01:17:12.760 --> 01:17:15.159 where it starts to sting for some of these people 1407 01:17:15.159 --> 01:17:18.159 that really wanted the pumpkin thing. They sent out emails 1408 01:17:18.159 --> 01:17:21.039 this week saying we've received the pumpkins and we're getting 1409 01:17:21.079 --> 01:17:23.520 ready to pack these out. You'll be receiving shipping in 1410 01:17:23.560 --> 01:17:27.039 the next few days, and then out of nowhere, yesterday 1411 01:17:27.680 --> 01:17:31.119 they sent out this notice on social media, started emailing 1412 01:17:31.159 --> 01:17:34.319 people and said it has been canceled and this is 1413 01:17:34.359 --> 01:17:37.239 what we're changing it to. So the original release of 1414 01:17:37.279 --> 01:17:41.439 this was five hundred Australian dollars, which in US money 1415 01:17:42.079 --> 01:17:45.600 like three three twenty something like that. Not after five 1416 01:17:45.720 --> 01:17:54.000 hundred five hundred Australian still yeah, and so now four 1417 01:17:54.079 --> 01:18:00.000 hundred and fifty Australian for this library collection. No, immediately, 1418 01:18:00.279 --> 01:18:01.239 it's quite expensive. 1419 01:18:04.439 --> 01:18:07.640 I'm good, I'll keep I still have my Halloween DVD. 1420 01:18:07.920 --> 01:18:08.399 I'm good. 1421 01:18:10.720 --> 01:18:14.239 There's a lot here. I imagine most

people will choose 1422 01:18:14.239 --> 01:18:17.359 to refund fully. The partial refund is kind of crazy. 1423 01:18:18.039 --> 01:18:22.520 I have a feeling that it's not as nefarious as 1424 01:18:22.560 --> 01:18:24.159 some people are making it out. To me, the number 1425 01:18:24.199 --> 01:18:26.960 of times I've seen somebody say the word's bait and 1426 01:18:27.000 --> 01:18:29.439 switch over the last twenty four hours that clearly don't 1427 01:18:29.439 --> 01:18:32.600 know what bait and switch means has been through the roof. 1428 01:18:33.479 --> 01:18:37.039 That being said, the fact that they actually received them 1429 01:18:37.920 --> 01:18:40.439 and then found the problem. I'm not going to say 1430 01:18:40.720 --> 01:18:44.560 I sympathize necessarily with the pricing and all that stuff. 1431 01:18:45.159 --> 01:18:48.079 I do, on one hand, feel awful about Imprint because 1432 01:18:48.119 --> 01:18:50.159 they are going to take a huge bath on this 1433 01:18:50.359 --> 01:18:55.239 no matter what. They're about to lose a ton of money. 1434 01:18:55.359 --> 01:18:57.319 So they have the pumpkins, but they're not going to 1435 01:18:57.359 --> 01:18:59.760 ship them in. The pumpkins, yes. 1436 01:19:00.119 --> 01:19:02.880 It to me, it sounds like they are probably gonna 1437 01:19:02.920 --> 01:19:05.720 crumble as they get shipped out to people like they 1438 01:19:05.760 --> 01:19:09.279 they It's probably that the walls of the pumpkin itself 1439 01:19:09.279 --> 01:19:11.840 are not sturdy enough to literally hold steel, which you 1440 01:19:11.920 --> 01:19:14.960 probably should have figured that out before you went to 1441 01:19:15.359 --> 01:19:18.720 the process of producing them. 1442 01:19:18.720 --> 01:19:23.159 They should sell them at like some Australian you know, 1443 01:19:23.359 --> 01:19:27.000 con or something like that get their money back. Yeah, 1444 01:19:27.119 --> 01:19:27.479 I don't know. 1445 01:19:27.520 --> 01:19:29.960 So anyways, I feel for everybody that really wanted this 1446 01:19:30.000 --> 01:19:31.760 and aren't going to get it. I feel for Imprint 1447 01:19:31.800 --> 01:19:33.199 in the fact that they're going to lose a lot 1448 01:19:33.239 --> 01:19:35.600 of money. That being said, there's been a lot of 1449 01:19:35.600 --> 01:19:39.079 problems throughout this entire thing and it's a mess. And 1450 01:19:39.119 --> 01:19:41.840 no matter what side that you are hoping for the 1451 01:19:41.880 --> 01:19:45.640 outcome to be, this all this all stinks. And I'm 1452 01:19:45.680 --> 01:19:57.239 sorry silent fists with Blu rays genus Speaking of bait 1453 01:19:57.279 --> 01:19:59.159 and switch. Wasn't the television secret title supposed to be 1454 01:19:59.159 --> 01:20:00.800 to de listed after alloway? Now it's back up even 1455 01:20:00.800 --> 01:20:02.000 though we know what it is? Right? Am I wrong 1456 01:20:02.039 --> 01:20:04.199 about something? I didn't know it was back up on their website. 1457 01:20:04.199 --> 01:20:06.279 You're right. It was supposed to be delisted and it 1458 01:20:06.319 --> 01:20:08.079 was supposed to be up with some third party retailers. 1459 01:20:08.079 --> 01:20:10.359 Only you know they did change their website. I wonder 1460 01:20:10.359 --> 01:20:13.640 if it's accidentally has anybody told them that it's listed. 1461 01:20:13.680 --> 01:20:16.640 They might not even know who? 1462 01:20:18.039 --> 01:20:19.720 Wait, what is it the secret title? 1463 01:20:21.239 --> 01:20:23.800 Well, for anybody that doesn't want to know what the 1464 01:20:24.119 --> 01:20:26.359 Terror Vision secret title is, could maybe it's still coming. 1465 01:20:26.880 --> 01:20:27.079 I can. 1466 01:20:27.159 --> 01:20:28.520 We'll look it up. If you don't want to like 1467 01:20:28.640 --> 01:20:29.079 you for the. 1468 01:20:29.000 --> 01:20:31.680 Next ten seconds, that's it because it's not a big deal. 1469 01:20:31.960 --> 01:20:35.439 So it is Dark Harvest from nineteen ninety two, the 1470 01:20:35.560 --> 01:20:38.720 SOOV film that Inner Vision had released on DVD. Okay, 1471 01:20:39.960 --> 01:20:42.239 we did have a special feature on the disc, so 1472 01:20:42.800 --> 01:20:46.159 go get it if you don't have it yet. All right. 1473 01:20:46.760 --> 01:20:51.279 That is the steel book debacle of the week. Next up, 1474 01:20:52.000 --> 01:20:54.960 February twenty third. Speaking of steel books, the BBC in 1475 01:20:55.000 --> 01:20:57.359 the UK is releasing a steel book of the War 1476 01:20:57.439 --> 01:21:00.279 between the Land and the Sea Season one, which is 1477 01:21:00.279 --> 01:21:03.199 a Doctor Who's spinoff, which means I have a feeling 1478 01:21:03.199 --> 01:21:04.319 you've never seen it, never. 1479 01:21:04.199 --> 01:21:08.760 Will I don't say that. What is it called? 1480 01:21:10.199 --> 01:21:12.479 It is called the War between the Land and the Sea? 1481 01:21:12.920 --> 01:21:15.359 It is a Doctor Who spin off series. 1482 01:21:15.840 --> 01:21:22.079 Hold the War between the what's it in the Land 1483 01:21:22.119 --> 01:21:26.720 and the Sea? Yeah, it's about the sea devils from 1484 01:21:26.760 --> 01:21:27.960 the Third Doctors era? 1485 01:21:28.199 --> 01:21:29.319 But no, I haven't watched it. 1486 01:21:29.399 --> 01:21:30.479 See look for. 1487 01:21:32.560 --> 01:21:37.640 Thanks John, Hey, that's the job that everybody was asking 1488 01:21:37.640 --> 01:21:41.640 about the uh. Next up, David Lynch is The Straight 1489 01:21:41.720 --> 01:21:44.399 Story getting a four K release over in the UK 1490 01:21:44.560 --> 01:21:47.680 from Studio Canal. Uh, this is coming on February ninth. 1491 01:21:47.760 --> 01:21:50.640 And now this had been released this exact same package 1492 01:21:50.680 --> 01:21:53.840 and all that by Studio Canal, but in Germany, and 1493 01:21:53.960 --> 01:21:55.640 something must have happened and they couldn't release in

the 1494 01:21:55.720 --> 01:21:59.079 UK yet, and now they are. This is a wonderful movie. 1495 01:21:59.359 --> 01:22:00.600 Any thoughts on straight story? 1496 01:22:00.880 --> 01:22:06.239 I love Richard Farnsworth. Ah, yeah, I don't know if 1497 01:22:06.279 --> 01:22:12.720 i'd want to Yeah, I'd probably want to own this maybe. Anyway, 1498 01:22:12.840 --> 01:22:15.199 if you haven't seen it, you should watch it, folks. 1499 01:22:16.720 --> 01:22:21.680 This is probably the most, like I probably shouldn't say, probably, 1500 01:22:21.760 --> 01:22:23.720 this is the most underrated David Lynch film by far. 1501 01:22:23.760 --> 01:22:25.479 Everybody harps on so many of the other ones, and 1502 01:22:25.520 --> 01:22:27.640 this gets forgotten quite often. 1503 01:22:28.439 --> 01:22:32.800 I forget sometimes too that it's David Lynch. But yeah 1504 01:22:32.920 --> 01:22:35.399 it is. It's a great movie. 1505 01:22:35.880 --> 01:22:38.520 Celeste asking is this a big deal because it's Disney. 1506 01:22:38.600 --> 01:22:41.239 It's not Disney in the UK or Germany. I think 1507 01:22:41.239 --> 01:22:43.800 Disney only owns the rights to this in the US. Actually, 1508 01:22:44.079 --> 01:22:47.319 So that's the big deal here, I guess is if 1509 01:22:47.319 --> 01:22:49.640 you want this and you want everything in English, this 1510 01:22:49.720 --> 01:22:51.880 is the way to get it, and not the German 1511 01:22:51.960 --> 01:22:54.640 release because Criterion probably can't release this here in the 1512 01:22:54.720 --> 01:22:57.640 US because of Disney, although who knows, Disney could surprise, 1513 01:22:57.760 --> 01:23:04.439 but that is unlikely. All right, Next up Arrow announcements today. 1514 01:23:04.680 --> 01:23:07.560 This is rare. Usually we get Will to discuss Aaro 1515 01:23:07.560 --> 01:23:12.000 announcements and we get Erica this month March second, we 1516 01:23:12.000 --> 01:23:14.079 get a Blu ray release over in the UK of 1517 01:23:14.239 --> 01:23:16.840 Calvert from two thousand and four. Have you seen this one? 1518 01:23:17.079 --> 01:23:17.520 I have not. 1519 01:23:19.520 --> 01:23:23.239 This is this is a rough one and I hope 1520 01:23:23.239 --> 01:23:27.119 people check us out because this movie is pretty great French. 1521 01:23:29.039 --> 01:23:32.119 It's early on in the New French extremity era, so 1522 01:23:32.119 --> 01:23:34.880 some people coun't it, some people don't. It's there's some 1523 01:23:34.920 --> 01:23:38.000 people that are you know how people get kind of 1524 01:23:38.680 --> 01:23:42.600 territorial about that that term. This one says a terrifying, 1525 01:23:42.680 --> 01:23:46.399 darkly comic tale that drew comparisons to Deliverance, straw Dogs 1526 01:23:46.560 --> 01:23:48.159 and the Texas Chainsaw Masacre. 1527 01:23:48.640 --> 01:23:50.119 Well, I so. 1528 01:23:50.359 --> 01:23:53.920 Right, gripping, utterly involving thriller that will put you through 1529 01:23:54.079 --> 01:23:57.479 the ringer. This has an archival commentary by the director. 1530 01:23:57.520 --> 01:23:59.760 We got an archival commentary by the director of the production. 1531 01:23:59.760 --> 01:24:03.880 Does new commentary by bj and Harmony Clangelo. Introduction by 1532 01:24:03.880 --> 01:24:07.039 the director we got a twenty three and two thousand 1533 01:24:07.039 --> 01:24:10.600 and five archival interviews with the director, new appreciation by 1534 01:24:10.760 --> 01:24:14.960 Whitney Caitlin McLay, who is great. We've got archival making 1535 01:24:15.000 --> 01:24:18.520 a featurette. There is storyboarding, all that other stuff, some 1536 01:24:18.560 --> 01:24:21.600 short films, and then a collector's book with new writing 1537 01:24:21.640 --> 01:24:25.760 by Anton Mattel Simon what is that last name? Hobbs, 1538 01:24:26.039 --> 01:24:29.439 Cerice Howard, and Alexandra Heller Nicholas, who's on pretty much 1539 01:24:29.439 --> 01:24:34.239 every release. Yeah, Calvert is great. 1540 01:24:35.439 --> 01:24:38.159 It doesn't seem just from the comments, it doesn't sound 1541 01:24:38.199 --> 01:24:44.840 like a rewatchable movie very much. So yeah, like Dustin said, 1542 01:24:44.920 --> 01:24:48.159 so library, Yeah. 1543 01:24:47.920 --> 01:24:51.760 That probably makes sense for you. Then another one that's 1544 01:24:51.880 --> 01:24:55.079 quite tense, nineteen seventy seven's Black Sunday coming up March 1545 01:24:55.159 --> 01:24:57.600 ninth on Blu Ray in the UK. This had been 1546 01:24:57.640 --> 01:25:00.439 released previously but not in the UK, so is coming 1547 01:25:00.600 --> 01:25:03.199 Robert Shaw film. Any thoughts on this one since we've 1548 01:25:03.239 --> 01:25:04.079 covered this one before. 1549 01:25:04.399 --> 01:25:09.479 Yeah, I like this one a lot. Actually it's Frankenheimer, right, yes, Mack, Yeah, 1550 01:25:09.560 --> 01:25:12.319 I like this one. I think my I think I 1551 01:25:12.319 --> 01:25:16.720 actually covered this on my old podcast, the one that 1552 01:25:16.760 --> 01:25:17.840 I wiped from the internet. 1553 01:25:18.119 --> 01:25:21.359 But right, yeah, it's a good movie. Not a lot 1554 01:25:21.359 --> 01:25:24.039 of people talk about this one quite tense like this one. 1555 01:25:25.319 --> 01:25:29.119 All right. March sixteenth, Arrow is releasing a four K 1556 01:25:29.199 --> 01:25:32.600 of Spaceballs over in the UK. Only don't forget Keno 1557 01:25:32.680 --> 01:25:34.720 has already released this on four K here in the US. 1558 01:25:35.439 --> 01:25:38.760 That being said, I do like that they literally titled 1559 01:25:38.800 --> 01:25:42.560 this on the cover Spaceballs the UHD and then when 1560 01:25:42.680 --> 01:25:44.840 you when you zoom in on the postcards, it says 1561 01:25:44.880 --> 01:25:51.159 Spaceball is the Postcard. That being said, there's no new 1562 01:25:51.159 --> 01:25:53.640 extras on this and no booklet, which is really

rare 1563 01:25:53.720 --> 01:25:56.840 for Arrow, so they kind of just licensed everything and 1564 01:25:56.880 --> 01:25:59.920 put it out there. But Keino on their four K 1565 01:26:00.199 --> 01:26:02.640 release they had a couple of lines of dialogue that 1566 01:26:02.680 --> 01:26:07.640 we're missing the audio, and supposedly Arrow has fixed everything. 1567 01:26:08.520 --> 01:26:11.399 So I think, you know, if you love this movie 1568 01:26:11.439 --> 01:26:13.479 and you don't have the Keno, this is definitely the 1569 01:26:13.479 --> 01:26:16.279 way to go. If you really love this movie and 1570 01:26:16.279 --> 01:26:18.199 you want to fix what you got and sell yours off, 1571 01:26:18.239 --> 01:26:20.000 you still might want to get this to replace it. 1572 01:26:20.039 --> 01:26:22.439 But yeah, Spaseball, it's a great movie. Love it. 1573 01:26:23.319 --> 01:26:26.399 Ero can't fix everything. Ryan, just you know. 1574 01:26:27.640 --> 01:26:29.399 We're gonna talk about more stuff than they. 1575 01:26:29.520 --> 01:26:32.000 I'm just no, I'm just saying like in general, you know, 1576 01:26:32.319 --> 01:26:35.319 like therapy is more helpful. 1577 01:26:35.720 --> 01:26:37.560 I mean, it depends on the person. You gotta be 1578 01:26:37.600 --> 01:26:41.319 open to that. Okay, speaking of things, that Arrow Is 1579 01:26:41.359 --> 01:26:44.279 Fixed coming on March thirtieth, four K and Blu ray 1580 01:26:44.319 --> 01:26:49.000 release over in the UK of Hard Boiled. First, I 1581 01:26:49.039 --> 01:26:52.840 know not everybody's into it, but I love this Tony 1582 01:26:52.840 --> 01:26:54.279 Stella art. 1583 01:26:54.840 --> 01:26:55.359 I like it. 1584 01:26:55.960 --> 01:26:58.920 I think this is a pretty big improvement over the 1585 01:26:59.279 --> 01:27:02.640 bright green, chow yun fat art that we've got in 1586 01:27:02.680 --> 01:27:05.560 the US. This is going to include this double sided 1587 01:27:05.600 --> 01:27:07.880 poster with the original and new art by Tony Stella, 1588 01:27:07.920 --> 01:27:10.520 collector's book with new writing on the film by Priscilla Page, 1589 01:27:10.640 --> 01:27:13.199 and some archival writing and an interview with John Wu. 1590 01:27:13.359 --> 01:27:15.840 We've got all the same extras that were on the 1591 01:27:15.840 --> 01:27:18.560 Shout release, so you're not missing anything if you did 1592 01:27:18.600 --> 01:27:20.279 not get the Shout release and you want this one. 1593 01:27:20.760 --> 01:27:24.760 But this does have a couple extra archival extras that 1594 01:27:24.800 --> 01:27:28.439 were not on the Shout release. Now, the other big thing, 1595 01:27:28.560 --> 01:27:32.760 this has brand new subtitles. These Shout subtitles are reviewed 1596 01:27:32.800 --> 01:27:35.079 as not very good and these are going to be 1597 01:27:35.159 --> 01:27:38.239 much better. And then I got confirmation from Brandon Bentley, 1598 01:27:38.239 --> 01:27:40.239 who works on

a lot of the Hong Kong releases 1599 01:27:40.279 --> 01:27:42.720 for Shout and Arrow and all these other companies, that 1600 01:27:42.800 --> 01:27:46.119 he fixed some of his own things and some other 1601 01:27:46.119 --> 01:27:48.680 stuff that slipped by on the Shout release, And so 1602 01:27:48.760 --> 01:27:51.319 there's going to be like, if you want the perfect 1603 01:27:51.479 --> 01:27:53.279 version of this, this is going to be the closest 1604 01:27:53.319 --> 01:27:55.840 to that. He did some audio tweaks, he did some 1605 01:27:55.840 --> 01:27:58.680 other stuff behind the scenes, so this is going to 1606 01:27:58.680 --> 01:28:02.199 be the same scam, but some things might be ever 1607 01:28:02.279 --> 01:28:05.880 so slightly different, probably not enough for you to worry about. 1608 01:28:06.199 --> 01:28:08.279 But if you did not get the Shout, this is 1609 01:28:08.479 --> 01:28:09.760 by far the one to get. 1610 01:28:10.800 --> 01:28:15.079 I did not get it, and I think because I 1611 01:28:15.119 --> 01:28:16.960 think a lot of people in the discord said that 1612 01:28:17.000 --> 01:28:18.960 they thought it was coming from somebody else. 1613 01:28:19.279 --> 01:28:22.880 So it is. It's still coming from Imprint in Australia, 1614 01:28:23.279 --> 01:28:27.319 and then it is also coming from that Italian company, 1615 01:28:27.479 --> 01:28:29.760 the Masters, I believe is what they're called. And then 1616 01:28:30.000 --> 01:28:32.279 Carlata and France is also releasing it. There's a lot 1617 01:28:32.279 --> 01:28:33.159 of releases. 1618 01:28:32.760 --> 01:28:34.760 Of Hard Boiled coming, Well let's get this one. 1619 01:28:36.399 --> 01:28:38.840 It's the best choice. And I should not have clicked 1620 01:28:38.880 --> 01:28:44.760 where I just clicked next one is broken red Sonia 1621 01:28:45.079 --> 01:28:47.880 getting a four K release here in the US from aerow. 1622 01:28:48.079 --> 01:28:50.319 This was released in the UK by Studio Canal with 1623 01:28:50.399 --> 01:28:54.439 a horrendous transfer. Supposedly this fixes all of that and 1624 01:28:54.479 --> 01:28:57.079 it is much much better. We got a new commentary 1625 01:28:57.119 --> 01:28:59.960 by somebody we just mentioned, Eugenie or Kalani and Troy Howard. 1626 01:29:00.319 --> 01:29:03.600 New commentary with the comic book expert Dave Baxter. New 1627 01:29:03.640 --> 01:29:06.319 interview with the actor Ernie Rayes Junior. New interview with 1628 01:29:06.359 --> 01:29:10.359 the action unit supervisor Vic Armstrong, new interview with Schwarzenegger's 1629 01:29:10.399 --> 01:29:14.479 stunt double, new interview with a stuntman, new interview with 1630 01:29:14.560 --> 01:29:17.840 the assistant production manager, new intern of the Xbox artist. 1631 01:29:17.920 --> 01:29:20.279 There's all kinds of stuff. This is a stacked, stacked, 1632 01:29:20.439 --> 01:29:23.960 stacked release. There is also going to be on here 1633 01:29:24.319

I'm good. 1642 01:29:56.399 --> 01:30:02.960 I get that immensely. How about Corey Feldman's movie The 1643 01:30:03.000 --> 01:30:06.359 Birthday from two thousand and four.

This has been unreleased for nearly twenty years. 1647 01:30:15.800 --> 01:30:18.840 The Birthday has achieved near mythic status among a cult 1648 01:30:18.880 --> 01:30:23.199 film enthusiast. Shot on a single, meticulously designed location, Eugenio 1649 01:30:23.279 --> 01:30:26.479 Mira's deliriously offbeat dark comedy offers a career best turn 1650 01:30:26.520 --> 01:30:31.399 from Corey Feldman, playing wildly against type, this is rediscovered 1651 01:30:31.399 --> 01:30:34.000 at last. The Birthday blends screwball comedy, cosmic horror, and 1652 01:30:34.079 --> 01:30:38.119 feverish style into an unforgettable cinematic experience restored from the 1653 01:30:38.119 --> 01:30:40.439 original Negative Arrow is proud to present the one of 1654 01:30:40.479 --> 01:30:43.920 a kind descent into madness in the release It's always Deserved. 1655 01:30:44.199 --> 01:30:47.520 This has an audio commentary by Corey Feldman and the 1656 01:30:48.199 --> 01:30:52.319 director Eugenio Mira.

I 1668 01:31:23.600 --> 01:31:31.960 am mildly intrigued by the thought of a Corey Feldman 1669 01:31:32.039 --> 01:31:38.319 commentary because I feel like that would be hilarious. But no, 1670 01:31:38.439 --> 01:31:39.560 I don't have any interest in this. 1671 01:31:41.600 --> 01:31:45.760 I get it, I get it.

Yeah? 1734

01:35:02.279 --> 01:35:05.800 I think this this is a long overdue release. I know, 1735 01:35:06.399 --> 01:35:11.319 I'm excited for Amanda and Bill. This is huge. I 1736 01:35:11.399 --> 01:35:13.800 feel like she might have mentioned this to me a 1737 01:35:13.880 --> 01:35:18.439 while ago, but anyway, I forgot about it. But yeah, 1738 01:35:18.479 --> 01:35:22.319 I mean, Reggie and Alder is amazing as Barlow in this. 1739 01:35:22.720 --> 01:35:29.439 It's not my favorite King adaptation or even like Vampire Movie, 1740 01:35:29.600 --> 01:35:32.880 but I mean this seems stacked and it's got like 1741 01:35:33.000 --> 01:35:34.960 both versions in there. I think it'd be cool if 1742 01:35:35.039 --> 01:35:38.880 like the televised version had like all the commercials in 1743 01:35:38.960 --> 01:35:43.880 it too that stuff, But I know that's like, you know, unlikely, 1744 01:35:44.000 --> 01:35:46.439 but yeah, I mean this looks like a great release, 1745 01:35:46.560 --> 01:35:51.560 So this is probably something i'd wait to pick up 1746 01:35:51.840 --> 01:35:57.760 on sale. And yeah, like somebody call will for a 1747 01:35:57.800 --> 01:35:58.800 Toby Hooper release. 1748 01:35:59.239 --> 01:36:00.960 You know, I didn't want to say it. Well, and 1749 01:36:01.039 --> 01:36:05.000 he did. I'm dangerous tonight for Keno years ago. Anything 1750 01:36:05.079 --> 01:36:07.319 that comes out brand new with with Toby Hooper, the 1751 01:36:07.399 --> 01:36:10.079 people that literally wrote the book on Toby Hooper should 1752 01:36:10.079 --> 01:36:12.119 be on the release. I know it's biased for me 1753 01:36:12.199 --> 01:36:14.680 to call for it, but come on, it's it's what 1754 01:36:14.840 --> 01:36:16.399 it's the right thing to do. Like if you google 1755 01:36:16.479 --> 01:36:20.159 Toby Hooper academic, that's they're coming up. 1756 01:36:20.239 --> 01:36:23.159 Come on, Yeah, with his luck, they'll give them gin. 1757 01:36:25.119 --> 01:36:26.640 Honestly, he'd probably love to talk about it. 1758 01:36:28.000 --> 01:36:31.079 Like for me, I would just be like, really, you're 1759 01:36:31.119 --> 01:36:33.439 gonna give me that one, you know, of course. 1760 01:36:35.039 --> 01:36:37.920 All right. Next, we've got a few compilations that were 1761 01:36:38.159 --> 01:36:41.760 quietly revealed coming from more Archive today. Now, reminder, these 1762 01:36:41.800 --> 01:36:44.600 are all the same discs that were released previously. You're 1763 01:36:44.640 --> 01:36:47.239 getting the full disc for each film. You're not losing 1764 01:36:47.279 --> 01:36:49.399 any features or anything. It's just that the films have 1765 01:36:49.479 --> 01:36:52.840 made their money and now they're packaging these together to 1766 01:36:52.920 --> 01:36:55.359 try to get them to you so that they can 1767 01:36:55.439 --> 01:36:57.159 save you a little bit and hopefully they can sell 1768 01:36:57.239 --> 01:37:00.159 more titles. So this first

one, February seventeenth, is a 1769 01:37:00.279 --> 01:37:03.239 four film collection of fred Astaire. You've got the Bandwagon, 1770 01:37:03.439 --> 01:37:07.600 Silk Stockings, You've got Easter Parade, and then the last 1771 01:37:07.640 --> 01:37:11.239 one is Finian's Rainbow. I don't think I've seen any 1772 01:37:11.279 --> 01:37:13.680 of these, not seen many Freda Staire films for the 1773 01:37:13.720 --> 01:37:16.279 most part. I think I've only seen a couple same. 1774 01:37:16.439 --> 01:37:17.399 Yeah, I'm. 1775 01:37:19.039 --> 01:37:21.800 Not a Muspi for me, I get it. And then 1776 01:37:21.840 --> 01:37:24.680 the other one is a Spencer Tracy collection. It's coming 1777 01:37:24.760 --> 01:37:27.000 on the same day. This one has Fury, Bad Day 1778 01:37:27.039 --> 01:37:30.680 at black Rock, Libeled Lady, and Northwest Passage. I think 1779 01:37:30.680 --> 01:37:32.920 I've probably seen more in Spencer Tracy films, but I 1780 01:37:32.960 --> 01:37:35.720 don't think I've seen any of these four Bad Day 1781 01:37:35.760 --> 01:37:36.520 of black Rock is. 1782 01:37:36.840 --> 01:37:41.840 I think the only one I've seen. Not movies amazing, nice, 1783 01:37:42.520 --> 01:37:45.840 but I don't I might have seen Fury, I don't know. 1784 01:37:47.399 --> 01:37:49.560 We got one more collection, but first we got to 1785 01:37:49.600 --> 01:37:52.720 talk about this nature doc on January thirteenth. There's a 1786 01:37:52.760 --> 01:37:56.520 blu ray coming from Giant of a double feature. Here 1787 01:37:56.560 --> 01:38:00.119 we got the American Southwest and Borderlands Jaguar. If you 1788 01:38:00.159 --> 01:38:02.760 are into nature docs, supposedly these are actually pretty good. 1789 01:38:04.239 --> 01:38:07.119 This looks interesting. I like nature stuff. 1790 01:38:07.920 --> 01:38:10.479 You know what this is a big miss of though, 1791 01:38:10.920 --> 01:38:14.199 is you know they did not do the documentary Sex 1792 01:38:14.279 --> 01:38:19.399 and the Animals. That is a joke only for unsung 1793 01:38:19.439 --> 01:38:25.239 WRORS listeners. Sorry, but maybe someday if you want to 1794 01:38:25.319 --> 01:38:29.800 know how turkeys get down, Sex and the Animals. 1795 01:38:30.359 --> 01:38:34.520 Sex and the Animals. All right, let's talk about vinegar Syndrome, 1796 01:38:34.600 --> 01:38:39.079 and then we'll go back to Warner stuff after Vinegar Syndrome. 1797 01:38:39.119 --> 01:38:42.159 Subscriber Week is coming starting on January first, and they 1798 01:38:42.479 --> 01:38:45.039 released all kinds of information about it today, so we 1799 01:38:45.119 --> 01:38:48.039 got a kind of a bit to cover here.

One new Pink line release, 1813 01:39:27.439 --> 01:39:38.880 and then twenty five partner label releases. How how do 1814 01:39:38.960 --> 01:39:40.239 you feel about that much coming out? 1815 01:39:40.640 --> 01:39:44.439 That's too much? I can't even like, I can't even 1816 01:39:44.439 --> 01:39:48.960 remember when, like can't I can't even keep straight, like 1817 01:39:49.199 --> 01:39:52.520 Vinegerson Jerome, and then VSLVSA vs. 1818 01:39:54.159 --> 01:39:54.199 P. 1819 01:39:54.479 --> 01:39:56.560 I don't fucking even I can't even keep them all straight. 1820 01:39:56.680 --> 01:39:59.640 And then on top of that, there's all the partner 1821 01:39:59.720 --> 01:40:01.880 label and now they're adding a new one, and then 1822 01:40:01.920 --> 01:40:07.520 there's all stuff on Melusine. It's a lot. 1823 01:40:08.960 --> 01:40:12.920 It is quite a bit. Yeah, the Iconoscope thing, we 1824 01:40:13.000 --> 01:40:17.119 don't know exactly what it is, but it is named 1825 01:40:17.159 --> 01:40:21.000 after an old TV or a TV brand, And in 1826 01:40:21.119 --> 01:40:23.880 their email that they sent out today they have teased 1827 01:40:24.039 --> 01:40:26.560 a couple made for TV things, So it seems like 1828 01:40:26.760 --> 01:40:30.119 Iconoscope is probably going to be focused on TV if 1829 01:40:30.159 --> 01:40:31.159 That's what I'm guessing. 1830 01:40:33.199 --> 01:40:35.600 Okay, So just to. 1831 01:40:35.680 --> 01:40:37.439 Read what was in their email today that is not 1832 01:40:37.760 --> 01:40:41.119 listed here, it says this year, look forward to a 1833 01:40:41.239 --> 01:40:45.119 genre bending four K debut from VSU, a nineteen seventies 1834 01:40:45.159 --> 01:40:49.960 New Hollywood masterpiece that is sorry and in a nineteen 1835 01:40:49.960 --> 01:40:53.159 eighties classic, both from Cinematograph. Then you get a fifties 1836 01:40:53.239 --> 01:40:56.319 monster deep cut from VSL and then the next in 1837 01:40:56.439 --> 01:40:59.520 the Sado series from Pink Line in collaboration with Melou 1838 01:40:59.560 --> 01:41:02.239 Scene of course, and then the debut duo from our 1839 01:41:02.319 --> 01:41:05.319

Okay, the 1842 01:41:19.840 --> 01:41:23.000 sub labels are a lot, Yeah, totally get it. But 1843 01:41:23.760 --> 01:41:26.239 that being said, more of this being preserved on physical media. 1844 01:41:26.239 --> 01:41:28.760 I'm always four So I can't really fault it too much. 1845 01:41:28.880 --> 01:41:31.760 It's just a whole lot to release. It's especially a 1846 01:41:31.840 --> 01:41:34.239 lot to release in one day. The rest of the year, 1847 01:41:34.640 --> 01:41:36.760 at least here it's spread out seven days, and some 1848 01:41:36.920 --> 01:41:39.720 of them will get some other love. But man, that 1849 01:41:39.920 --> 01:41:44.479 first day, right at noon eastern, there's like twenty what 1850 01:41:44.680 --> 01:41:49.359 is it, twenty twenty five, twenty eight, twenty nine brand 1851 01:41:49.399 --> 01:41:52.640 new releases and then like new merch and everything all 1852 01:41:52.720 --> 01:41:54.239 popping up on their site at once. 1853 01:41:56.399 --> 01:42:00.520 Yeah. See, and this is like, you know, getting back 1854 01:42:00.520 --> 01:42:02.239 to what we were talking about earlier, Like I just 1855 01:42:03.399 --> 01:42:06.920 I and I know partner label stuff isn't included. Nothing 1856 01:42:07.039 --> 01:42:11.239 even outside of vinegar Syndrome proper is ingraded. So to me, 1857 01:42:11.479 --> 01:42:17.600 it's just it's I'd rather just sort of pick and 1858 01:42:17.680 --> 01:42:20.319 choose for myself. And yes, like when I had the subscription, 1859 01:42:20.560 --> 01:42:23.680 having the discount on everything else was fine, but it's 1860 01:42:23.840 --> 01:42:27.760 like I could just get that at one of the 1861 01:42:27.880 --> 01:42:31.119 sales in six months or when I want to, and 1862 01:42:31.279 --> 01:42:33.880 if it's something that I really really want and it's 1863 01:42:33.920 --> 01:42:36.159 selling out, then yeah, I'll pay full price for it. 1864 01:42:36.279 --> 01:42:39.319 That's fine. I don't know. 1865 01:42:41.560 --> 01:42:44.479 So yeah, let's see, I talked about the VS releases 1866 01:42:44.800 --> 01:42:47.960 for this one, we don't need ten thousand sub labels, 1867 01:42:48.000 --> 01:42:49.960 says Josh. I mean, I agree, but if this is 1868 01:42:50.000 --> 01:42:51.640 the only way they're going to release it, which of 1869 01:42:51.760 --> 01:42:53.680 course they can't throw all that in the subscription because 1870 01:42:53.720 --> 01:42:55.920 it would be very expensive on top of the already 1871 01:42:55.960 --> 01:42:58.720 expensive subscription. So yeah, we'll talk about the price in 1872 01:42:58.800 --> 01:43:04.359 just a minute, and then let's see mister whateverism is 1873 01:43:04.399 --> 01:43:06.800 asking will I subscribe? I had had it in my 1874 01:43:06.880 --> 01:43:08.600 mind that I was not going to subscribe all year, 1875 01:43:08.680 --> 01:43:11.880 and then I started realizing how much more interested I 1876 01:43:12.000 --> 01:43:15.199 was in the partner label stuff. And the reality is, 1877 01:43:15.399 --> 01:43:17.600 if you are if you are crazy, and if you're 1878 01:43:17.640 --> 01:43:21.319 buying like not even just partner labels, but say five 1879 01:43:22.000 --> 01:43:26.520 five things every month that are sub labels, Malu Scene 1880 01:43:26.680 --> 01:43:30.079 or partner labels, all of a sudden, the discounts alone 1881 01:43:30.119 --> 01:43:35.000 that you're getting makes the subscription like almost borderline free, 1882 01:43:35.159 --> 01:43:38.479 Like you're getting all of the VS titles as an 1883 01:43:38.520 --> 01:43:41.560 addition to what you're already getting the discounted stuff. Yeah, 1884 01:43:41.560 --> 01:43:45.279 so with this many partner labels, I mean, we're gonna 1885 01:43:45.279 --> 01:43:47.199 talk about it a second. But they say they I've 1886 01:43:47.279 --> 01:43:48.760 not counted a long time. They just said they have 1887 01:43:48.840 --> 01:43:50.279 over forty partner labels. 1888 01:43:50.319 --> 01:43:54.079 Now, yeah, I mean for me, it's a matter of like, 1889 01:43:55.000 --> 01:43:58.239 is this a movie that I'm going to watch more 1890 01:43:58.319 --> 01:44:02.039 than once? I I rarely. I don't think I own 1891 01:44:02.159 --> 01:44:06.119 I actually own any documentaries that aren't special features on 1892 01:44:06.359 --> 01:44:09.159 a feature film disc because I tend to just watch 1893 01:44:09.359 --> 01:44:17.239 documentaries once. But you know, when it comes to yeah, 1894 01:44:17.319 --> 01:44:20.119 the discount is it's nice. But at the same time, 1895 01:44:20.840 --> 01:44:26.680 I just spending that amount of money up front, like 1896 01:44:27.039 --> 01:44:30.079 I just I don't know, I'm not going to. 1897 01:44:32.560 --> 01:44:34.680 I get that. I totally get the people that are out, 1898 01:44:34.760 --> 01:44:37.359 and we'll talk about some things that make a lot 1899 01:44:37.399 --> 01:44:39.560 of people probably more going to be out than usual 1900 01:44:39.680 --> 01:44:43.840 this time because they're changing some things up. But the 1901 01:44:43.960 --> 01:44:46.520 other thing that made me consider that I might actually 1902 01:44:46.560 --> 01:44:49.119 do it this year and this is this is dumb 1903 01:44:49.199 --> 01:44:51.000 and you can't do it now. So I feel terrible 1904 01:44:51.079 --> 01:44:53.000 bringing it up now. But I got really lucky and 1905 01:44:53.079 --> 01:44:56.239 found out through another site that PayPal was offering a 1906 01:44:56.520 --> 01:44:59.760 deal where if you did a pay later option where 1907 01:45:00.439 --> 01:45:04.239 it's like PayPal paying for or their pay down the 1908 01:45:04.319 --> 01:45:07.680 road like credit option

whatever, they were giving you twenty 1909 01:45:07.800 --> 01:45:11.199 five percent back in rewards up to fifteen hundred dollars 1910 01:45:11.319 --> 01:45:14.560 for a purchase. So if you paid up to fifteen 1911 01:45:14.600 --> 01:45:17.359 hundred dollars, you could get twenty five percent of that 1912 01:45:17.600 --> 01:45:20.399 back in essentially cash, because it just goes into your 1913 01:45:20.439 --> 01:45:22.640 PayPal account. And the cool thing is you don't ever 1914 01:45:22.720 --> 01:45:25.279 have to like get interest, you don't have to get 1915 01:45:25.279 --> 01:45:27.880 a credit check or anything like that. So I did 1916 01:45:27.960 --> 01:45:31.319 it just enough to cover the subscription, and now I'm 1917 01:45:31.359 --> 01:45:34.359 getting like two hundred or two hundred and twenty five 1918 01:45:34.399 --> 01:45:37.359 dollars off of the subscription costs essentially. 1919 01:45:39.720 --> 01:45:42.039 Wait, I've already done it for this coming here. 1920 01:45:42.479 --> 01:45:45.520 I did it because I bought us. I used the 1921 01:45:45.560 --> 01:45:48.920 PayPal thing that they were saying to buy Vinegar Syndrome 1922 01:45:48.960 --> 01:45:52.960 gift cards. So now I've got enough in credit to 1923 01:45:53.119 --> 01:45:56.399 purchase the subscription and I'm getting like two hundred fifty 1924 01:45:56.399 --> 01:45:56.760 dollars back. 1925 01:45:56.800 --> 01:46:01.000 Okay, So you use the PayPal thing for give, You're 1926 01:46:01.000 --> 01:46:02.520 going to use that to buy this? Okay? I thought 1927 01:46:02.520 --> 01:46:04.359 you had already bought the subscription. I was like, how'd 1928 01:46:04.399 --> 01:46:05.960 you do that? Are you future? 1929 01:46:06.359 --> 01:46:08.079 I bought the credit to be able to do it. 1930 01:46:08.520 --> 01:46:12.399 I'm sorry, celest it is a past deal. I didn't 1931 01:46:12.479 --> 01:46:14.000 know that I could trust it until I tried it, 1932 01:46:14.039 --> 01:46:16.600 and by the time that the rewards appeared to my account, 1933 01:46:16.680 --> 01:46:19.039 it had already expired, or I would have shared it 1934 01:46:19.119 --> 01:46:24.399 with everybody. But I feel quite lucky that it worked out, 1935 01:46:24.680 --> 01:46:27.640 and so yeah, I just got a pretty decent discount 1936 01:46:27.680 --> 01:46:31.239 on it all right. Going out to talk about some 1937 01:46:31.359 --> 01:46:33.760 of their changes and stuff, they say, as long as 1938 01:46:33.800 --> 01:46:35.880 you have an unfulfilled subscriber week order on the site, 1939 01:46:35.920 --> 01:46:37.359 you can add to it for free up until it 1940 01:46:37.399 --> 01:46:40.079 ships out. So they've got order stacking like they always do. 1941 01:46:40.680 --> 01:46:42.520 They will have that add to my existing order. So 1942 01:46:42.560 --> 01:46:43.840 if you go on there every day and you want 1943 01:46:43.920 --> 01:46:46.359 something else, you don't have to pay shipping again

or 1944 01:46:46.560 --> 01:46:48.880 even once if you buy enough on that first time. 1945 01:46:49.479 --> 01:46:54.039 They will start shipping orders on January twelfth. Vinegar Centrome 1946 01:46:54.079 --> 01:46:55.800 is one of the only ones that are like on 1947 01:46:56.000 --> 01:46:58.439 top of the production wise, you're not pre ordering super 1948 01:46:58.520 --> 01:47:00.439 far in advance. A lot of the stuff the people 1949 01:47:00.520 --> 01:47:03.680 bought for December shipped literally within like three days, so 1950 01:47:03.920 --> 01:47:06.640 they're they're going a little bit quicker during this and 1951 01:47:06.680 --> 01:47:08.720 then that'll be shipping throughout the end of January. So 1952 01:47:08.800 --> 01:47:12.079 don't get too riled up if it hasn't shipped yet, 1953 01:47:12.680 --> 01:47:16.079 but they have changed something. So, yes, you still get 1954 01:47:16.119 --> 01:47:19.720 fifty percent off of all of the partner labels, all 1955 01:47:19.760 --> 01:47:21.960 the mal you've seen, all of the sub labels, all 1956 01:47:22.039 --> 01:47:25.000 of the Command Cinema stuff, everything there. You also get 1957 01:47:25.039 --> 01:47:27.640 your order shipped first after the sales and after the 1958 01:47:27.680 --> 01:47:31.000 pre orders for the month. But this is where something 1959 01:47:31.079 --> 01:47:33.960 started to change. They no longer have three different packages 1960 01:47:34.000 --> 01:47:37.000 for US, Canada and international. It is one price and 1961 01:47:37.079 --> 01:47:39.479 they're just charging a different price for shipping. So if 1962 01:47:39.520 --> 01:47:41.920 you're in the US, standard shipping is free. It's included 1963 01:47:41.960 --> 01:47:44.439 in the base price. Canadians, you will pay one hundred 1964 01:47:44.439 --> 01:47:47.359 and forty dollars for shipping. Internationally, outside of that, two 1965 01:47:47.439 --> 01:47:50.960 hundred twenty dollars for shipping, and the price for subscribing 1966 01:47:51.039 --> 01:47:54.960 this year one thousand, ninety five dollars, and if you 1967 01:47:55.039 --> 01:47:57.600 are a Pass subscriber, you're going to get a coupon 1968 01:47:57.680 --> 01:48:01.479 for one hundred dollars off of that price overall, so 1969 01:48:01.600 --> 01:48:09.079 it'll be nine to ninety five. If you're a US resident. Yeah, 1970 01:48:09.479 --> 01:48:13.760 I'm good, but this is where it starts to get 1971 01:48:13.840 --> 01:48:17.000 a little weird. If you're asking me, which I don't know, 1972 01:48:17.000 --> 01:48:20.159 if you will to keep our sub numbers around the 1973 01:48:20.199 --> 01:48:24.119 sweet spot for operations in the warehouse. We will be 1974 01:48:24.359 --> 01:48:30.560 capping the number of subscribers to two thousand customers. If 1975 01:48:30.600 --> 01:48:32.920 you are a subscriber in twenty twenty five, you will 1976 01:48:32.960 --> 01:48:35.279 be guaranteed a spot if you want it. But they 1977

01:48:35.319 --> 01:48:39.279 are locking it off at two thousand. Now to me, 1978 01:48:40.640 --> 01:48:43.600 that sounds like they're trying to institute some fomo on 1979 01:48:43.720 --> 01:48:49.079 the subscriptions, which is crazy on a thousand plus dollar purchase. 1980 01:48:53.520 --> 01:48:56.439 So they didn't have a cap on it before, it. 1981 01:48:56.600 --> 01:48:58.760 Was not capped before, and now they're saying it is 1982 01:48:58.840 --> 01:49:02.399 limited to only two thousand customers that can subscribe worldwide. 1983 01:49:02.560 --> 01:49:09.680 That's it. And so imagine, and I'm not saying this 1984 01:49:09.800 --> 01:49:12.800 is going to happen, but on day five of subscriber 1985 01:49:12.840 --> 01:49:15.840 Week they come out and say, by the way, subscriptions 1986 01:49:15.880 --> 01:49:18.560 are selling fast, we have less than three hundred subscriptions left. 1987 01:49:19.279 --> 01:49:21.479 Somebody out there is going to go, oh, if I 1988 01:49:21.680 --> 01:49:24.119 was even like teetering on the line, maybe I want 1989 01:49:24.119 --> 01:49:25.720 to do this, and they're going to go talk somebody. 1990 01:49:25.560 --> 01:49:32.479 To do it. Yeah, yeah, No, I think that's definitely 1991 01:49:33.359 --> 01:49:36.600 creating some fomo like that. That sort of marketing does 1992 01:49:36.880 --> 01:49:38.399 get to people. It's not going to get to me 1993 01:49:38.680 --> 01:49:40.520 because you know, I'm going to take one look at 1994 01:49:40.560 --> 01:49:46.760 my bank account and be like, sorry, someone asked, do 1995 01:49:46.800 --> 01:49:48.359 you have to pay? Is it you have to pay 1996 01:49:48.399 --> 01:49:49.800 taxes on the subscription? 1997 01:49:50.159 --> 01:49:53.239 You do have to pay taxes. This is something that 1998 01:49:54.079 --> 01:49:56.319 you know, it's not food, it's not I know there's 1999 01:49:56.319 --> 01:49:58.880 some states where clothing is free. No, you got to 2000 01:49:58.880 --> 01:49:59.600 pay taxes on it. 2001 01:50:00.039 --> 01:50:04.560 Yeah, and you know, so let's asked about worth making 2002 01:50:05.199 --> 01:50:08.239 their video this year. I mean I think it. I 2003 01:50:08.359 --> 01:50:12.119 think that video is worth it because I actually sort 2004 01:50:12.119 --> 01:50:15.399 of took a page from that and did that myself 2005 01:50:15.520 --> 01:50:18.880 this year and really looked at, Okay, what were all 2006 01:50:18.960 --> 01:50:21.479 the releases that came out this year that I would 2007 01:50:21.520 --> 01:50:24.640 have got if I had subscribed? What were the ones 2008 01:50:24.720 --> 01:50:29.039 that I would have bought with the discount? And how 2009 01:50:29.119 --> 01:50:31.840 much should I actually pay for it? And really, when 2010 01:50:32.119 --> 01:50:35.039 I sat down and like did the math for last year, 2011 01:50:36.359 --> 01:50:38.399 you know, if I would have got these like okay, 2012 01:50:38.479 --> 01:50:40.359 well I would have just tried to sell them. But 2013 01:50:40.560 --> 01:50:45.600 now because they're their printing or they're making so many 2014 01:50:45.720 --> 01:50:56.880 more targeted so sorry, my cats are fighting behind me. Toby. Anyway, Yeah, 2015 01:50:57.359 --> 01:51:01.359 I don't. Yeah, So I like I did my own 2016 01:51:01.479 --> 01:51:03.560 sort of math, and I was like, yeah, this doesn't 2017 01:51:04.479 --> 01:51:07.960 this doesn't make sense for I'm glad I didn't kind 2018 01:51:08.000 --> 01:51:11.119 of thing and thinking about it going into next year, 2019 01:51:11.319 --> 01:51:16.359 like yeah, there's there's gonna be stuff that I'm gonna wish, like, oh, 2020 01:51:16.439 --> 01:51:18.359 I wish I had a subscription this month. This is 2021 01:51:18.399 --> 01:51:21.600 a really great slate. But it's like, there'll always be 2022 01:51:21.680 --> 01:51:24.279 a way to see the movie. You know, I don't 2023 01:51:24.319 --> 01:51:27.600 need to own all the movies I only have. You know, 2024 01:51:27.920 --> 01:51:30.239 I'm an old fucking lady. I've only got so many 2025 01:51:30.319 --> 01:51:32.600 years left that I can watch movies. And I haven't 2026 01:51:32.640 --> 01:51:35.000 even watched everything that's on my shelf yet. I'm fine. 2027 01:51:35.159 --> 01:51:36.920 I don't need to, oh all, I have standard editions 2028 01:51:36.960 --> 01:51:37.399 no matter what. 2029 01:51:37.840 --> 01:51:39.039 Yeah, that's fine. 2030 01:51:39.880 --> 01:51:42.640 So I mean kind of Celeste was saying, is it 2031 01:51:42.720 --> 01:51:45.640 even worth making a video? Celeste, you got to make 2032 01:51:45.640 --> 01:51:48.800 the video. I gotta be honest. I was considering, like 2033 01:51:48.840 --> 01:51:50.720 how much do I talk about this and lay into 2034 01:51:50.800 --> 01:51:53.119 it tonight? Because you know, I'm helping more and more 2035 01:51:53.159 --> 01:51:58.319 of these companies. I feel sometimes like I shouldn't lambass 2036 01:51:58.399 --> 01:52:00.560 the choices these because many of these are are keeping 2037 01:52:00.680 --> 01:52:03.560 other physical media companies going and alive and keeping the 2038 01:52:03.600 --> 01:52:06.159 industry going and all that. But this, to me, this 2039 01:52:06.279 --> 01:52:11.279 feels pretty feels pretty iggy. I'm not stoked on a 2040 01:52:11.319 --> 01:52:14.960 lot of this. It is something that you know, a 2041 01:52:15.000 --> 01:52:17.880 lot of people have already started going against all the 2042 01:52:17.920 --> 01:52:21.680 fomo marketing, which I'm glad, but this, I think more 2043 01:52:21.720 --> 01:52:24.359 people need to speak out about it, for sure. Yeah, 2044 01:52:26.680 --> 01:52:30.079 some other small changes here which are kind of cool 2045 01:52:30.119 --> 01:52:34.159 in a way, but also very gimmicky in some other ways. Obviously, 2046 01:52:34.239 --> 01:52:36.079 if you're gonna get other stuff, make sure you get this. 2047

01:52:36.239 --> 01:52:38.199 If you're going to subscribe, make sure you do that first. 2048 01:52:38.239 --> 01:52:40.119 You get free shipping on everything. I just wanted to 2049 01:52:40.199 --> 01:52:43.960 mention that. But then everybody who is a subscriber in 2050 01:52:44.039 --> 01:52:46.680 twenty twenty six is getting at what they're calling a 2051 01:52:46.920 --> 01:52:52.119 Premium Metal membership card. It will be engraved with your 2052 01:52:52.279 --> 01:52:56.760 name and a QR code. Now gimmicky, yes, because like, 2053 01:52:57.079 --> 01:52:58.840 what are you gonna flash that to somebody? That's weird. 2054 01:52:59.199 --> 01:53:02.159 But what is kind of cool here. This is the 2055 01:53:02.279 --> 01:53:04.439 only reason why I do think this is cool is 2056 01:53:04.680 --> 01:53:08.920 you can use this at their physical locations and when 2057 01:53:08.960 --> 01:53:10.760 you go to a convention and they have their table, 2058 01:53:11.079 --> 01:53:13.079 so like, if you are in person and want your 2059 01:53:13.119 --> 01:53:16.159 subscriber discount, you can use it there, which I think 2060 01:53:16.279 --> 01:53:19.680 is very cool. I think that that is something that 2061 01:53:20.119 --> 01:53:21.640 if you were a subscriber in the past and you 2062 01:53:21.680 --> 01:53:23.520 were visiting them and you would be paying more for 2063 01:53:23.600 --> 01:53:25.880 the releases at the table. I think it's cool that 2064 01:53:25.960 --> 01:53:31.039 they give you that option. Now, however, is kind of 2065 01:53:31.399 --> 01:53:34.520 weird to like ship metal cards engraved to two thousand people. 2066 01:53:35.159 --> 01:53:41.520 Yeah, that's some like trump coin bullshit to me, honestly. 2067 01:53:41.800 --> 01:53:47.640 Like it's just that you don't need to create another thing. 2068 01:53:47.800 --> 01:53:50.880 You already put out enough cardboard into the universe, and 2069 01:53:50.960 --> 01:53:54.960 now you're adding like these metal cards to it where oh, 2070 01:53:55.079 --> 01:53:57.920 you can take these to the table or physical location. 2071 01:53:58.039 --> 01:54:00.880 It's like you have a computer with a database of 2072 01:54:01.039 --> 01:54:03.920 the people who are your subscribers you can get like 2073 01:54:04.199 --> 01:54:06.640 you can look them up in there for their subscription. Like, 2074 01:54:06.720 --> 01:54:08.399 you don't need to make another thing to put in 2075 01:54:08.560 --> 01:54:10.000 the world that is going to end up in a 2076 01:54:10.079 --> 01:54:14.000 fucking landfill. Like I just I'm that's no, I don't 2077 01:54:14.079 --> 01:54:14.680 I don't like it. 2078 01:54:17.479 --> 01:54:20.800 Yeah, there's there's a lot here, lots taken. So yeah, 2079 01:54:20.880 --> 01:54:23.600 like I said, the big news almost eleven hundred dollars 2080 01:54:24.079 --> 01:54:26.359 if you were not a subscriber last year to subscribe 2081 01:54:26.479 --> 01:54:28.199 if you're

and that's only if you're in the US. 2082 01:54:28.319 --> 01:54:30.720 If you're outside of the US, shipping cost is going 2083 01:54:30.760 --> 01:54:32.560 to be on top of that, there's going to be 2084 01:54:32.640 --> 01:54:36.600 tax involved. You're getting a metal card and there you go. 2085 01:54:40.079 --> 01:54:44.920 It's a lot. Yeah, all right. Moving on from Vinegar 2086 01:54:44.960 --> 01:54:49.119 Syndrome to Warner Brothers. Warner Brothers, thanks to Bill hunt 2087 01:54:49.159 --> 01:54:51.359 over at the Digital Bits, has revealed some news on 2088 01:54:51.520 --> 01:54:54.479 their four K slate from twenty twenty six. Now saying 2089 01:54:54.520 --> 01:54:56.760 it like that makes it sound like it's exhaustive, it's not. 2090 01:54:57.000 --> 01:54:59.000 They could still put out more, and they likely still 2091 01:54:59.039 --> 01:55:01.479 would be putting out more. It's just a matter of 2092 01:55:01.560 --> 01:55:02.880 what can they put out in one year. I know 2093 01:55:02.920 --> 01:55:04.960 a couple of these were slated for twenty twenty five 2094 01:55:05.000 --> 01:55:07.000 and got delayed to twenty six, so who knows, but 2095 01:55:07.159 --> 01:55:10.640 those titles coming in twenty twenty six. Ben her this 2096 01:55:10.800 --> 01:55:12.720 is already listed for pre order. It is coming in 2097 01:55:12.880 --> 01:55:15.640 I think January or February. All the President's Men from 2098 01:55:15.680 --> 01:55:19.720 seventy six coming for pre order already. That's quarter one 2099 01:55:19.760 --> 01:55:23.479 as well. January or February, A Racer from nineteen ninety four, 2100 01:55:23.600 --> 01:55:27.279 Gravity from twenty thirteen, Mars Attacks from ninety six, Interview 2101 01:55:27.319 --> 01:55:29.560 with the Vampire from ninety four, Gone with the Wind 2102 01:55:29.680 --> 01:55:33.359 finally from nineteen thirty nine, and Magnolia from nineteen ninety nine, 2103 01:55:33.479 --> 01:55:37.560 all getting four K releases either hopefully this year. It's 2104 01:55:37.600 --> 01:55:39.600 planned for this year, but they could get pushed at 2105 01:55:39.600 --> 01:55:42.159 twenty twenty seven. Any thoughts on any of those. 2106 01:55:44.479 --> 01:55:53.520 I mean, I love Mars Attacks, but Magnolia, yeah, I mean, yeah, 2107 01:55:53.560 --> 01:55:55.159 they can have it. It just feels that I know 2108 01:55:55.239 --> 01:55:57.159 a lot of people want that for a criterion, but. 2109 01:55:57.680 --> 01:56:01.000 Yeah, they'll make their mone That's why they get a 2110 01:56:01.039 --> 01:56:01.399 hold on it. 2111 01:56:01.479 --> 01:56:02.560 Oh yeah, no, I get it. 2112 01:56:05.359 --> 01:56:07.960 All right. So that's Warner Brothers again. No dates for 2113 01:56:08.000 --> 01:56:10.000 any of these, no pre order other than Ben hur 2114 01:56:10.079 --> 01:56:12.399 and All the President's Men. You can preorder those already. 2115 01:56:13.359 --> 01:56:17.640 This has been confirmed by Bill

and his contacts, because 2116 01:56:17.640 --> 01:56:20.920 he does have some studio contacts, but also Warner Brothers 2117 01:56:21.119 --> 01:56:24.960 Korean distributor started teasing the titles. Funny enough, and that's 2118 01:56:25.000 --> 01:56:28.840 how some of these got originally confirmed, all right, and 2119 01:56:28.920 --> 01:56:30.640 then back to Warner Archive for the last of those 2120 01:56:30.680 --> 01:56:33.720 three collections, We're getting a Broadway on the Big Screen 2121 01:56:33.960 --> 01:56:37.239 six film collection, and this has Gypsy guys and dolls. 2122 01:56:37.359 --> 01:56:40.760 It's got Brigadoon, the Damn Yankees, the Pajama Game, and 2123 01:56:40.840 --> 01:56:43.479 then Ken Russell's The Boyfriend. 2124 01:56:47.479 --> 01:56:50.399 I want to see The Boyfriend. I think I don't 2125 01:56:50.399 --> 01:56:53.239 want all of these, so I'm good. 2126 01:56:54.880 --> 01:56:56.840 Well, you can just buy the single disc release thingful. Yeah, 2127 01:56:56.920 --> 01:57:04.199 that's yeah, or Brenton from library. All right, a really 2128 01:57:04.640 --> 01:57:07.079 really great couple of announcements from friends of the channel 2129 01:57:07.199 --> 01:57:10.560 new Way Video. This is John Matthews in Australia's label. 2130 01:57:11.000 --> 01:57:13.159 He's been on the show multiple times. These are both 2131 01:57:13.239 --> 01:57:16.319 coming in late February or early March, both on Blu Ray, 2132 01:57:16.800 --> 01:57:18.960 and they are going to be available at all the 2133 01:57:19.039 --> 01:57:21.560 US retailers and overseas, so check it out if you're 2134 01:57:21.600 --> 01:57:25.079 after them. First is nineteen eighty six's ninety Night. We 2135 01:57:25.159 --> 01:57:26.520 had talked about this a little bit on the show 2136 01:57:26.560 --> 01:57:28.680 before when it was teas that it was coming, but 2137 01:57:28.760 --> 01:57:31.119 here it is coming, and you can preorder this now. 2138 01:57:31.800 --> 01:57:34.600 You've got a director's approved special edition here transferred and 2139 01:57:34.680 --> 01:57:38.720 restored from the only surviving videotape master. There's a retrospective 2140 01:57:38.800 --> 01:57:41.920 doc on ninety nine. There's a featurette by Lachlan Sally 2141 01:57:42.039 --> 01:57:44.520 on this there is a full original soundtrack by Save Earth, 2142 01:57:44.920 --> 01:57:47.159 the Small Pebble short film, a forty page behind the 2143 01:57:47.199 --> 01:57:52.199 scenes booklet by Hiroshi Sorry Hiroshia Cocusho featuring rare photos 2144 01:57:52.239 --> 01:57:54.600 and in depth stories, a new slipcover with art by 2145 01:57:54.640 --> 01:57:58.279 Sydney based illustrator James O'Brien. I love the art on 2146 01:57:58.359 --> 01:58:02.039 this release. And then this is the only eight millimeter film. 2147 01:58:02.079 --> 01:58:04.359 Elements that were made were lost. We are working from 2148 01:58:04.399 --> 01:58:07.039 a tape source which

underwent color correction and touch up. 2149 01:58:07.800 --> 01:58:09.640 You can look at screenshots on their website to get 2150 01:58:09.680 --> 01:58:11.600 an idea on the quality of the film. It does 2151 01:58:11.720 --> 01:58:14.760 not look incredible, but it is literally the best you 2152 01:58:14.800 --> 01:58:17.039 could possibly get on this film. Now, just so you know, 2153 01:58:17.760 --> 01:58:20.319 so we'll be in Japanese with English subtitles, and this 2154 01:58:20.479 --> 01:58:22.199 is an anthology horror film. 2155 01:58:23.720 --> 01:58:27.000 I like this artwork looks very much like a children's book. 2156 01:58:27.720 --> 01:58:31.359 It does perfect. And then to go with it, you 2157 01:58:31.479 --> 01:58:34.960 can pick up Nourico's Dinner Table, the Shian Sono film 2158 01:58:35.119 --> 01:58:38.159 from nineteen eighty six. That's not the right year. I 2159 01:58:38.199 --> 01:58:40.960 don't believe I think I got that wrong. Maybe it's not. Nope, 2160 01:58:40.960 --> 01:58:43.199 I kept it from the last one I screwed up. 2161 01:58:43.239 --> 01:58:46.560 That's awesome. This is a companion piece to Suicides Club. 2162 01:58:47.039 --> 01:58:49.960 This film expands the story into an emotionally gripping exploration 2163 01:58:50.039 --> 01:58:52.880 of identity, family, and the hidden loneliness of modern life. 2164 01:58:53.239 --> 01:58:56.159 Following the journey of seventeen year old Norico, who flees 2165 01:58:56.199 --> 01:58:58.880 her small town home for Tokyo, the film pulls viewers 2166 01:58:58.920 --> 01:59:01.680 into the unsettling world of a rental family agency. Good 2167 01:59:01.760 --> 01:59:04.159 year for that with that film that came out More 2168 01:59:04.199 --> 01:59:06.640 than just a Jayhorn. Nourico's Dinner Table is a chilling 2169 01:59:06.720 --> 01:59:10.479 exploration of connection and alienation in the digital age. Combining 2170 01:59:10.520 --> 01:59:14.720 intimate storytelling with Sono's signatures surreal flourishes. It is both 2171 01:59:14.760 --> 01:59:17.880 heartbreaking and unforgettable. It's shot on low fi digital video 2172 01:59:17.920 --> 01:59:20.680 and later transferred to thirty five millimeter film. This is 2173 01:59:20.760 --> 01:59:22.960 proud to present a full restoration source from that thirty 2174 01:59:22.960 --> 01:59:27.560 five millimeter picture and sound negatives and now some cool stuff, 2175 01:59:27.600 --> 01:59:30.239 especially for a couple of people in the chat.

Newly restored Dolby Digital five point one audio, 2179 01:59:38.600 --> 01:59:41.439 new interview with Shian Sono, a new introduction by Shiansno, 2180 01:59:41.520 --> 01:59:45.399 and archival interview with Sono. Interview with the actress Kazue

There's a thirty 2183 01:59:51.079 --> 01:59:54.520 minute making of Doc two thousand and six Tokyo premiere footage, 2184 01:59:54.560 --> 01:59:57.600 rare behind the scenes photo gallery.

I hope that the same people 2194 02:00:25.760 --> 02:00:29.079 who aren't going to complain about the disclaimer that Celeste 2195 02:00:29.119 --> 02:00:32.600 joked about in front of Gone with a Win don't 2196 02:00:32.720 --> 02:00:34.920 complain about this director. 2197 02:00:35.199 --> 02:00:40.359 But too late?

This is 2240 02:02:53.399 --> 02:02:55.439 only a two K scan of the inner positives. This 2241 02:02:55.520 --> 02:02:57.640 will likely never come to four K. For those of 2242 02:02:57.720 --> 02:02:59.920 you that are listening to this later and saying, well, 2243 02:03:00.039 --> 02:03:02.680 I know four K, like everybody does. This will likely 2244 02:03:02.800 --> 02:03:03.600 never get a four K. 2245 02:03:05.399 --> 02:03:09.600 Oh No, yeah, I don't care. 2246 02:03:11.319 --> 02:03:13.399 Matt Haws asking what the straight story finally coming to 2247 02:03:13.399 --> 02:03:15.119 Studio Canal four K? Is there any chance we'll get 2248 02:03:15.119 --> 02:03:16.960 a criterion? I mean there's a chance, but the odds 2249 02:03:17.000 --> 02:03:19.520 are not very high, considering it's owned by Disney here 2250 02:03:19.560 --> 02:03:25.720 in the US. Carrie Mulligan with the like hot Goss 2251 02:03:25.760 --> 02:03:27.479 of the

Night, I just recently learned about the tragic 2252 02:03:27.560 --> 02:03:29.720 life of Seller's last wife. I do tell I'm not. 2253 02:03:30.000 --> 02:03:34.119 I don't know anything about this, all right? And then 2254 02:03:35.479 --> 02:03:37.920 I feel like this is eric as Hell coming soon 2255 02:03:38.159 --> 02:03:41.399 on a Walmart exclusive Blu ray Steel book from Paramount, 2256 02:03:41.960 --> 02:03:45.039 the brand new film, The SpongeBob Movie.

They had the Necronomicon book. 2262 02:04:01.399 --> 02:04:02.920 That's like spongy. They could do it. 2263 02:04:03.720 --> 02:04:08.159 That's true, and then I believe. Yeah, this is our 2264 02:04:08.239 --> 02:04:10.720 last of the week. We got a brand new four 2265 02:04:10.800 --> 02:04:13.720 K steel book of Alien Romulus from last year coming 2266 02:04:13.760 --> 02:04:17.359 over in the UK from Fox themselves. This is coming 2267 02:04:17.439 --> 02:04:20.239 in like late spring. Now. The big thing here is 2268 02:04:20.279 --> 02:04:22.319 this is brand new art from Matt Ferguson, who's a 2269 02:04:22.520 --> 02:04:24.680 really great artist. I love the art on this actually, 2270 02:04:25.079 --> 02:04:27.800 and he's got If you go to his instagram, there 2271 02:04:27.880 --> 02:04:31.479 are the exclusive place behind these is selling prints of 2272 02:04:31.520 --> 02:04:34.199 the same art. Or you can go and order the 2273 02:04:34.239 --> 02:04:36.479 steel book from them and he will sign the steel 2274 02:04:36.479 --> 02:04:38.479 book or the art print if you are into him 2275 02:04:38.600 --> 02:04:41.720 as an artist, and I don't know, that'd be pretty 2276 02:04:41.760 --> 02:04:46.439 cool to own. Are you into the Alien franchise at all? 2277 02:04:46.520 --> 02:04:46.920 Probably not? 2278 02:04:47.079 --> 02:04:50.880 Well, yeah, but like the original, the original only yeah. God, 2279 02:04:51.640 --> 02:04:54.079 I didn't even see this one. I don't I'm zero 2280 02:04:54.199 --> 02:04:54.720 interest in this. 2281 02:04:56.760 --> 02:05:00.159 I liked it, all right, that's it for for this 2282 02:05:00.199 --> 02:05:02.399 week's announcements. Let's talk about what's coming out next week. 2283 02:05:02.439 --> 02:05:04.760 In case you forgot cloud outless on four K from 2284 02:05:04.840 --> 02:05:07.920 Shout Factory, which kind of crazy they you know, talk 2285 02:05:07.920 --> 02:05:11.119 about bait and switch with the imprint thing. Shout Factory 2286 02:05:11.159 --> 02:05:13.720 pulled an actual bait and switch. They advertised that they 2287 02:05:13.720 --> 02:05:16.680 were

selling an alternate slipcover for cloud Outless, and they 2288 02:05:16.760 --> 02:05:20.880 shipped everybody's order without it, which is kind of crazy. 2289 02:05:21.560 --> 02:05:23.239 I don't know how you just get away with that 2290 02:05:24.039 --> 02:05:27.560 pretty wild perfect blue coming to four K that's limited 2291 02:05:27.600 --> 02:05:30.359 in this edition. Next week Begonia from this year, the 2292 02:05:30.600 --> 02:05:32.520 four K steel Book and Standard is coming out. Did 2293 02:05:32.520 --> 02:05:33.239 you see Pogonia? 2294 02:05:34.039 --> 02:05:37.000 I did, yes, what'd you think? I enjoyed it very much. 2295 02:05:37.840 --> 02:05:41.079 I love that movie. Black Phone two four K is 2296 02:05:41.159 --> 02:05:44.119 next week as well. Laurel and Hardy the collection from 2297 02:05:44.159 --> 02:05:47.000 Classic Flicks. Next week Tales from the Dark Side four 2298 02:05:47.079 --> 02:05:49.359 K Steel Book with some of the weirdest art I've 2299 02:05:49.399 --> 02:05:53.640 ever seen for that film from Shout A Big, bold, 2300 02:05:53.640 --> 02:05:56.399 Beautiful Journey, which Sibner in the chat loved this movie. 2301 02:05:56.520 --> 02:06:00.520 I did not love it, but it's all right. We 2302 02:06:00.640 --> 02:06:03.720 are still here. Tenth anniversary coming next week, pointed heels 2303 02:06:04.800 --> 02:06:09.000 might come out this company. The last couple announcements they've 2304 02:06:09.039 --> 02:06:10.640 had did not come out on the release date, so 2305 02:06:10.840 --> 02:06:13.039 we'll see if that actually happens. And that's it. Other 2306 02:06:13.159 --> 02:06:16.520 than some anime stuff called Learning the hard way. Are 2307 02:06:16.560 --> 02:06:18.479 you gonna check out any of these? And I think 2308 02:06:18.520 --> 02:06:19.199 I know the answer. 2309 02:06:19.600 --> 02:06:22.279 No, that's what I not a one. I already got 2310 02:06:22.319 --> 02:06:24.720 forced into seeing fucking Black Phone two. 2311 02:06:26.239 --> 02:06:27.680 Do you hate that one? Yeah? 2312 02:06:28.319 --> 02:06:30.760 God, I don't know why everyone likes that guy's movies. 2313 02:06:32.319 --> 02:06:35.319 All right, So here's the Peter Sellers thing. Lynn Frederick 2314 02:06:35.439 --> 02:06:37.600 was considerably younger than Sellers and married him during his 2315 02:06:37.680 --> 02:06:40.159 most miserable years, where he was apparently abusive. She died 2316 02:06:40.159 --> 02:06:46.760 at thirty nine of drug and alcohol abuse. Yikes. All right, 2317 02:06:47.279 --> 02:06:50.800 film resolutions, this is something you're covering on Unsung Horrors 2318 02:06:50.880 --> 02:06:53.920 and something we're covering here tonight. Do you do this 2319 02:06:54.039 --> 02:06:56.279 every year? No? Everybody? No. 2320 02:06:57.439 --> 02:07:03.520 So the previous years we have just uh like favorite 2321 02:07:03.760 --> 02:07:08.840 new watches, you know, film discoveries. But I feel like, 2322 02:07:10.600 --> 02:07:13.760 you know, everyone sort of jumped on that bandwagon too, 2323 02:07:14.279 --> 02:07:18.960 and you know, we're like, all right, well, and I 2324 02:07:19.039 --> 02:07:20.800 think a big part of it too, was this year 2325 02:07:21.000 --> 02:07:24.079 just both Lance and I didn't really watch as much 2326 02:07:24.119 --> 02:07:27.359 as we normally do. And I mean we both watched 2327 02:07:27.479 --> 02:07:31.439 like three four hundred movies each, which to a normal 2328 02:07:31.680 --> 02:07:36.439 person is huge. They think that's insane. But most of 2329 02:07:36.520 --> 02:07:41.640 those movies were either for the podcast or related to 2330 02:07:41.680 --> 02:07:45.079 the podcast, or related to you know, special features we're 2331 02:07:45.119 --> 02:07:48.279 working on, So there really wasn't much that we could 2332 02:07:48.319 --> 02:07:51.000 talk about that we hadn't already mentioned, either in the 2333 02:07:51.079 --> 02:07:55.279 podcast or in special features. So we're like, we didn't 2334 02:07:55.279 --> 02:07:57.520 want to just list off movies we'd already talked about. 2335 02:07:57.680 --> 02:08:02.560 So this idea sort of came out of that, I guess, 2336 02:08:04.479 --> 02:08:06.439 and a lot of that too, came from just our 2337 02:08:07.680 --> 02:08:13.199 talking about our letterbox stats before you know, we had 2338 02:08:13.239 --> 02:08:16.439 even started kind of talking about the idea and recording 2339 02:08:16.560 --> 02:08:18.880 and like really just sort of looking at what did 2340 02:08:18.920 --> 02:08:21.800 our twenty twenty five look like kind of thing, And 2341 02:08:21.880 --> 02:08:25.159 so that's where the majority of my resolutions come from, 2342 02:08:25.319 --> 02:08:27.159 is from my letterbox stats. 2343 02:08:31.199 --> 02:08:34.680 All right, I am, I am. I've been wanting to 2344 02:08:34.760 --> 02:08:36.560 do this for a couple of years actually, so I'm glad. 2345 02:08:36.680 --> 02:08:38.880 And actually, outside of the podcast, do you do this 2346 02:08:39.359 --> 02:08:41.600 every year? Have you done this before? Where you've decided 2347 02:08:41.680 --> 02:08:42.800 like for the year, I'm going to focus on a 2348 02:08:42.840 --> 02:08:43.319 couple of things. 2349 02:08:44.520 --> 02:08:47.920 In the past, I've said like I'm going to make 2350 02:08:48.079 --> 02:08:52.840 like this actor, this director my most watched one. And 2351 02:08:53.000 --> 02:08:55.039 there's been years where I've been able to stick to 2352 02:08:55.159 --> 02:08:58.640 that this last year. I didn't make any resolutions for 2353 02:08:58.720 --> 02:09:00.720 twenty twenty five, but I was also in a huge 2354 02:09:00.760 --> 02:09:04.520 depression funk, so you know, wasn't really caring about like 2355 02:09:04.960 --> 02:09:07.079 a priority. Well, I'm going to make sure that you know. 2356 02:09:09.359 --> 02:09:11.600 I don't know Quoi che Hung's my most watched

director 2357 02:09:11.680 --> 02:09:13.119 this year. Like I wasn't doing that. 2358 02:09:14.800 --> 02:09:17.439 I get it. I like I said, I've wanted to 2359 02:09:17.479 --> 02:09:18.840 do this for the last couple of years, and this 2360 02:09:19.000 --> 02:09:21.720 year ended up being very weird. I focused more on 2361 02:09:21.800 --> 02:09:23.159 theater than I ever have in my life, and that's 2362 02:09:23.159 --> 02:09:25.479 probably never going to happen again, so I'll let that 2363 02:09:25.560 --> 02:09:29.239 stay in the past. But I this list was fun 2364 02:09:29.319 --> 02:09:30.560 to make. That there's a lot of things that I 2365 02:09:30.680 --> 02:09:34.119 want to focus on and want to want to make important. 2366 02:09:34.239 --> 02:09:36.600 So I'm I'm ready. What is the first one on 2367 02:09:36.680 --> 02:09:37.039 your list? 2368 02:09:37.439 --> 02:09:39.640 Yeah? Well, I haven't seen anyone else post any of 2369 02:09:39.680 --> 02:09:41.960 their resolutions in the chat so far, so if you 2370 02:09:42.079 --> 02:09:46.439 folks haven't, I would very much say please post them 2371 02:09:46.600 --> 02:09:50.479 in Ryan's discord. And if you are not in Ryan's discord, 2372 02:09:50.560 --> 02:09:53.359 then that means you are not subscribed to his Patreon, 2373 02:09:53.600 --> 02:09:57.720 which Ryan never plugs for himself. So you should subscribe 2374 02:09:57.760 --> 02:10:07.079 to his Patreon people. Okay, so this year, and I'm 2375 02:10:07.159 --> 02:10:11.560 just going to preface this with, uh, like real quick 2376 02:10:11.760 --> 02:10:14.439 in my my own like letterbox stats for the year, 2377 02:10:15.279 --> 02:10:20.159 just because where are they? Twenty twenty five was very 2378 02:10:20.319 --> 02:10:24.119 Hong Kong heavy for me, like an insane amount. So 2379 02:10:24.199 --> 02:10:27.079 I was even looking at my most watched directors and 2380 02:10:28.239 --> 02:10:31.199 of oh no, my my most watched actors, and of 2381 02:10:31.560 --> 02:10:34.680 the forty like not even just like the top ten, 2382 02:10:35.239 --> 02:10:41.399 of the top forty, only two of them were non 2383 02:10:41.560 --> 02:10:46.479 Hong Kong actors. Like that's not many. That that's insane. 2384 02:10:47.920 --> 02:10:49.680 And most of them are men, Like I think there's 2385 02:10:49.720 --> 02:10:52.840 like two women in there. So I'm like, all right, 2386 02:10:53.000 --> 02:11:01.079 so I'm trying to minimize Hong Kong. My most watched director, uh, 2387 02:11:01.399 --> 02:11:06.439 directors one, two, three, four, five, six, seven of the 2388 02:11:06.560 --> 02:11:10.479 top ten were Hong Kong directors. So like, yeah, I'm like, 2389 02:11:10.720 --> 02:11:13.000 I need to I need to take my foot off 2390 02:11:13.279 --> 02:11:16.880 the gas there a little bit. That being said, there 2391 02:11:16.920 --> 02:11:18.920 are a few things that I definitely want to finish 2392 02:11:19.560 --> 02:11:21.560 on the Hong

Kong side. So you know how on 2393 02:11:21.800 --> 02:11:24.840 the stats you can see like the collections of films, 2394 02:11:25.000 --> 02:11:27.560 so there's a bunch of those, and it gives you 2395 02:11:27.680 --> 02:11:31.039 this feature of like almost finished, where you're like one 2396 02:11:31.119 --> 02:11:34.840 away from finishing this whole film series. And so my 2397 02:11:35.000 --> 02:11:39.159 OCD and my need for completing things saw that and 2398 02:11:39.359 --> 02:11:42.039 was immediately like, oh, well, I need to finish all 2399 02:11:42.079 --> 02:11:44.119 these things. So that's the majority of what we're going 2400 02:11:44.159 --> 02:11:48.000 to talk about. So for Hong Kong for next year, 2401 02:11:48.119 --> 02:11:50.319 I need to finish the in the Line of Duty, 2402 02:11:50.920 --> 02:11:53.720 that's the Hong Kong Girls with Guns. I've watched seven 2403 02:11:53.760 --> 02:11:58.119 out of nine. The thirty six Chamber movies, I've watched 2404 02:11:58.119 --> 02:11:59.600 two out of three, so I got one of those 2405 02:11:59.640 --> 02:12:02.840 to why watch The Inspector Wears Skirts? I've watched three 2406 02:12:02.880 --> 02:12:04.720 out of four, so I need to I need to 2407 02:12:04.760 --> 02:12:07.520 watch the second one. Unfortunately I didn't watch them all 2408 02:12:07.560 --> 02:12:13.039 in order. So and then there's apparently a Demon trilogy, 2409 02:12:13.079 --> 02:12:15.800 which I didn't know these films exit like were part 2410 02:12:15.840 --> 02:12:20.359 of a trilogy. But it's Ghost Nursing which Vinigerson dream 2411 02:12:20.399 --> 02:12:24.880 put out, Seeding of a Ghost also, and then Invitation 2412 02:12:25.159 --> 02:12:27.600 of Ghosts from nineteen eighty four, and I haven't seen 2413 02:12:27.680 --> 02:12:30.720 that last one, so I'm gonna watch that and then 2414 02:12:31.000 --> 02:12:34.119 I'll have all of that nice those are my Hong 2415 02:12:34.239 --> 02:12:39.079 Kong resolutions, So only two, three, four five movies from 2416 02:12:39.159 --> 02:12:42.119 Hong Kong, not saying that's all collections. Yeah, I'm going 2417 02:12:42.159 --> 02:12:44.279 to finish up those collections. So that's four collections I 2418 02:12:44.319 --> 02:12:44.920 can finish, right. 2419 02:12:45.000 --> 02:12:48.439 There were there examples of collections that you finished this 2420 02:12:48.680 --> 02:12:51.880 year that you you watched entirely. Oh I don't. 2421 02:12:52.279 --> 02:13:00.880 Yeah, I watched the whole decalogue series, the Christov whatever 2422 02:13:00.920 --> 02:13:01.479 his last name is. 2423 02:13:02.560 --> 02:13:04.960 How'd you feel about that in twenty five? 2424 02:13:06.239 --> 02:13:11.239 I mean, they were all excellent, but I was having 2425 02:13:11.279 --> 02:13:14.439 a good you know, I planned it for that one. 2426 02:13:14.520 --> 02:13:16.439 I was like, I'm gonna I got it from the library, 2427 02:13:16.680 --> 02:13:19.920 shout out my library. They're good with the criterions. And 2428 02:13:20.000 --> 02:13:21.439 I watched all of them in one day. 2429 02:13:22.199 --> 02:13:22.479 Damn. 2430 02:13:22.840 --> 02:13:25.600 That was I probably should have broken it up into 2431 02:13:25.680 --> 02:13:27.880 like two days, but I was like, I'm almost done. 2432 02:13:28.279 --> 02:13:29.880 I'm just I'm just gonna push through. I'm going to 2433 02:13:29.920 --> 02:13:33.840 watch all of them. So he ended up being my 2434 02:13:33.960 --> 02:13:35.840 one of my most watched directors because I logged them 2435 02:13:35.840 --> 02:13:38.119 all separately when each episode. 2436 02:13:37.760 --> 02:13:43.319 So yeah, way to pay the stats. Yeah all right. 2437 02:13:43.399 --> 02:13:47.920 So in terms of that I've been talking about for 2438 02:13:47.920 --> 02:13:49.640 the last year year and a half and this is 2439 02:13:49.720 --> 02:13:52.560 such a like borderline elementary level one, but I wanted 2440 02:13:52.600 --> 02:13:53.920 to throw this out there. I want to do an 2441 02:13:54.079 --> 02:13:56.920 entire filmography in one year, not like I've seen the 2442 02:13:56.960 --> 02:13:59.119 rest of those movies. I'm going to finish this filmography. 2443 02:13:59.600 --> 02:14:02.119 I want to do anybody, I think one of the 2444 02:14:02.159 --> 02:14:04.359 bigger directors that's got like more than ten films, I 2445 02:14:04.399 --> 02:14:06.920 want to watch all of them in this one year. 2446 02:14:07.079 --> 02:14:09.399 Start start like the first week of January, and do 2447 02:14:10.119 --> 02:14:12.439 one each week or one each month, something like that, 2448 02:14:12.600 --> 02:14:15.119 and get as many as I can and get through 2449 02:14:15.239 --> 02:14:17.039 from the very beginning to the end. But when I'm 2450 02:14:17.079 --> 02:14:19.479 saying that, I'm going to try to do everything like 2451 02:14:19.640 --> 02:14:23.520 short films, things they co directed with somebody else, and 2452 02:14:23.600 --> 02:14:25.359 not just do like the major things, but try to 2453 02:14:25.439 --> 02:14:28.800 do something for everything. For a filmography from somebody. 2454 02:14:29.920 --> 02:14:32.720 And you don't do you have one pick in particular. 2455 02:14:33.039 --> 02:14:34.720 There's a couple that I've had in mind. Cubrick is 2456 02:14:34.760 --> 02:14:37.880 one that I've really wanted to see, like the evolution 2457 02:14:38.159 --> 02:14:40.039 of that from the beginning all the way through the end, 2458 02:14:40.119 --> 02:14:43.159 and a short time span to see how he progressed. 2459 02:14:43.960 --> 02:14:46.840 I know that there's a couple that I've seen like 2460 02:14:46.920 --> 02:14:50.359 Dustin he's commenting right now, he watched all of a 2461 02:14:50.399 --> 02:14:52.359 few directors in the last couple of years, I believe, 2462 02:14:52.479 --> 02:14:55.479 and he's he's gone through chronological order, and it's really 2463 02:14:55.560

--> 02:14:58.960 nice to see kind of how like your your sensibilities 2464 02:14:59.039 --> 02:15:01.800 towards that stuff Iole changes kind of how theirs does. 2465 02:15:01.920 --> 02:15:04.239 And sometimes you'll you'll grow to like them more or 2466 02:15:04.319 --> 02:15:06.319 like see patterns that you never would have noticed if 2467 02:15:06.359 --> 02:15:08.800 you weren't watching them so close together. And so I 2468 02:15:08.800 --> 02:15:12.640 don't want to just say I remember watching these three films, 2469 02:15:12.640 --> 02:15:14.520 so I'm gonna forget those. I want to do everything 2470 02:15:14.640 --> 02:15:18.720 just in case I see something new. Yeah, I don't 2471 02:15:18.720 --> 02:15:19.960 think I'm gonna choose Jess Franco. 2472 02:15:21.359 --> 02:15:23.479 I mean, I think Will is the only person that's 2473 02:15:23.560 --> 02:15:28.479 probably closest to actually finishing. So yeah, I actually have 2474 02:15:28.760 --> 02:15:30.920 in so in our episode next week, I have a 2475 02:15:31.000 --> 02:15:34.199 couple of directors who I'm not going to do like 2476 02:15:34.479 --> 02:15:38.399 full filmography watches. But there are a couple of directors 2477 02:15:38.439 --> 02:15:41.119 who I want to finish that I haven't that. I 2478 02:15:41.239 --> 02:15:43.960 was surprised. I well, no, I wasn't surprised. I knew 2479 02:15:43.960 --> 02:15:46.319 there were a couple of ones I'd never gotten around 2480 02:15:46.359 --> 02:15:55.199 to Yeah, it's not Eli Roth, but I mean in 2481 02:15:55.800 --> 02:15:59.880 that vein of directors, I do have one picked out 2482 02:16:00.119 --> 02:16:03.680 where I'm not necessarily going to finish his filmography because 2483 02:16:04.000 --> 02:16:06.479 you know I might. There's a lot of short films 2484 02:16:06.960 --> 02:16:10.840 in there and stuff like that. Oh God's cushing me. 2485 02:16:15.239 --> 02:16:18.359 But there's if you look at your letterbox stats, you 2486 02:16:18.439 --> 02:16:19.800 can look at it year by year, or you can 2487 02:16:19.840 --> 02:16:25.920 look at it lifetime. And one of my directors that's 2488 02:16:26.000 --> 02:16:30.399 in like the top top ten of my all time 2489 02:16:30.520 --> 02:16:34.200 watched is Spielberg. And I'm like, you know, I'm like, 2490 02:16:34.680 --> 02:16:36.840 I mean, don't get me wrong, I love Jaws. I 2491 02:16:36.959 --> 02:16:40.520 love a lot of his movies, but like, it's not 2492 02:16:41.319 --> 02:16:42.680 I don't want it. I don't want him in my 2493 02:16:42.760 --> 02:16:45.520 top ten. There's other people I would rather have in there. 2494 02:16:46.079 --> 02:16:49.840 So my one of my next resolutions is to move 2495 02:16:49.959 --> 02:16:54.239 Cronenberg into my top ten. And it's not going to 2496 02:16:54.280 --> 02:16:57.079 take much, Like I just need that. There's a few 2497 02:16:57.239 --> 02:16:59.360 that I need to watch that I've never seen before. 2498 02:17:00.760 --> 02:17:04.799

And Butterfly, A Dangerous Method, Maps of the Stars, Spider 2499 02:17:05.000 --> 02:17:09.639 and Cosmopolis so nice. That's five that'll get him. That'll 2500 02:17:09.719 --> 02:17:14.680 easily bump Spielberg out. And then just a couple one 2501 02:17:14.799 --> 02:17:17.719 or two films from a few other directors will definitively 2502 02:17:17.840 --> 02:17:21.760 push Stephen, like Waite, I don't want you there. So 2503 02:17:22.000 --> 02:17:26.319 like a few from Argento, a few, Terence Fisher, a 2504 02:17:26.399 --> 02:17:30.840 couple Toby Hooper, a few just Franco Joe demattoed so 2505 02:17:31.079 --> 02:17:32.959 a few of those from each of them. But for 2506 02:17:33.040 --> 02:17:35.159 the most part, I'm going to say, Okay, Cronenberg, I 2507 02:17:35.200 --> 02:17:38.360 gotta watch at least five get Stephen out of there. 2508 02:17:38.840 --> 02:17:41.360 Nice Dustin threw out there that he also did a 2509 02:17:41.399 --> 02:17:44.000 chronological deep dive of Eric Romyer this year and that 2510 02:17:44.120 --> 02:17:46.879 was incredible. And then this is really cool couch outus, 2511 02:17:46.959 --> 02:17:49.159 He says, I completed Lamberto Baba due to all the 2512 02:17:49.639 --> 02:17:53.079 cool releases like The Cauldron did and seven did. Yeah. Yeah, 2513 02:17:53.120 --> 02:17:54.200 that's gotta be a fun one too. 2514 02:17:54.799 --> 02:17:56.680 I need to pick up a couple of those releases 2515 02:17:56.719 --> 02:17:59.879 from last year next year when they're on. 2516 02:18:00.760 --> 02:18:04.520 All right resolution Numero dose? What do you got? 2517 02:18:04.959 --> 02:18:05.879 That was my second one? 2518 02:18:06.159 --> 02:18:06.280 Oh? 2519 02:18:06.360 --> 02:18:07.440 That was your second number one? 2520 02:18:07.520 --> 02:18:10.760 Yeah, Cronaber got it. I'm sorry my second one. This 2521 02:18:10.959 --> 02:18:13.920 is again kind of very broad, but I over the 2522 02:18:14.000 --> 02:18:16.920 last couple of years, specifically, have been stuck in a 2523 02:18:16.959 --> 02:18:20.280 couple different lanes, and I don't have enough noir in 2524 02:18:20.399 --> 02:18:22.280 my background, and I definitely want to beef up that. 2525 02:18:22.760 --> 02:18:25.280 And then alongside of that, in that era, I want 2526 02:18:25.280 --> 02:18:28.920 to really hit screwball comedies hard. The writing of screwball 2527 02:18:29.000 --> 02:18:32.959 comedies are like always incredible. The fact that you can 2528 02:18:33.040 --> 02:18:36.319 keep the dialogue going that's fast and that smooth in 2529 02:18:36.360 --> 02:18:40.600 a way that is NonStop in those films, I really 2530 02:18:40.799 --> 02:18:44.040 want to take from that learn from it. The editing 2531 02:18:44.079 --> 02:18:46.479 in those movies are always incredible because of how much 2532 02:18:46.520 --> 02:18:50.399 they're kind of like slamming into ten minutes of film, 2533 02:18:50.719 --> 02:18:53.360 which in any other movie nowadays would be like forty 2534 02:18:53.440 --> 02:18:56.639 minutes of film. And so yeah, I really want to 2535 02:18:56.680 --> 02:18:58.920 hit some of those hard and get a lot of 2536 02:18:58.959 --> 02:19:02.200 the bigger titles that I don't have watched ever, or 2537 02:19:02.280 --> 02:19:04.360 have watched and forgotten because the last time I saw 2538 02:19:04.399 --> 02:19:07.639 it was twenty six years ago, and see, uh see 2539 02:19:07.680 --> 02:19:09.159 what I learned from it. I mean, I'm a different 2540 02:19:09.239 --> 02:19:10.879 film person than the last time I saw many of 2541 02:19:10.920 --> 02:19:14.360 those movies, so I'm very eager to see how those 2542 02:19:14.440 --> 02:19:15.280 genres speak to me. 2543 02:19:15.959 --> 02:19:22.920 All right, all right, So my next resolution is again 2544 02:19:24.879 --> 02:19:29.520 part of collections. So the other one was like more 2545 02:19:29.559 --> 02:19:33.159 Hong Kong focused. This is like horror and cult. So 2546 02:19:34.680 --> 02:19:39.399 I need to finish the Species. This is important, you guys, 2547 02:19:39.920 --> 02:19:42.239 the Species collection. I have not seen the fourth one, 2548 02:19:42.280 --> 02:19:48.319 the Awakening. Very excited for this. There's the uh the 2549 02:19:48.520 --> 02:19:51.879 House series and this is like the ghost House Witchery 2550 02:19:53.520 --> 02:19:56.680 Italian ones, not talking like you know, ding don your 2551 02:19:56.760 --> 02:20:02.239 Dead House movies. I have not seeing Claudio Fragoso's Beyond Darkness, 2552 02:20:02.639 --> 02:20:06.319 so wow, throw some Italian trash in the mix. 2553 02:20:06.399 --> 02:20:06.600 There. 2554 02:20:09.000 --> 02:20:11.600 The sunny Chiba street Fighter movies. I've only seen two 2555 02:20:11.639 --> 02:20:13.440 of the three, so I've got one to watch there. 2556 02:20:15.319 --> 02:20:18.280 And then I have also never seen Beyond re Animator, 2557 02:20:18.559 --> 02:20:23.000 so that will finish my Reanimator collection. 2558 02:20:23.840 --> 02:20:26.239 I think you're actually gonna love Beyond Reanimating. 2559 02:20:26.280 --> 02:20:29.239 I don't know that you know what I'm gonna love. 2560 02:20:30.559 --> 02:20:34.600 I don't think you will. Yeah, it's it's not great. 2561 02:20:34.959 --> 02:20:38.079 Yeah, I'm not see. This is why I'm like, this 2562 02:20:38.239 --> 02:20:42.479 is more about completion than like I can't wait to watch. 2563 02:20:42.920 --> 02:20:45.200 You know, it's not all It's not about that. It's 2564 02:20:45.200 --> 02:20:50.479 about you know, getting getting these you know, getting a 2565 02:20:50.559 --> 02:20:54.440 sense of completion in there. So I've got some other 2566 02:20:54.520 --> 02:20:57.280 good ones. O my next collection resolution though, but you 2567 02:20:57.520 --> 02:20:58.440 next year three. 2568 02:20:59.280 --> 02:21:05.360 My this one is not even film specifically, but I 2569 02:21:05.680 --> 02:21:08.319

took a bit of a backseat this year to a 2570 02:21:08.399 --> 02:21:11.200 certain kind of supplement, and it's because it's so time consuming, 2571 02:21:11.280 --> 02:21:12.840 but I miss it. I want to spend more time 2572 02:21:12.879 --> 02:21:16.159 with commentaries this year. There are quite a few that 2573 02:21:17.799 --> 02:21:19.879 I've watched the film and really wanted to listen to 2574 02:21:19.920 --> 02:21:22.440 the commentary, and I just knew another one hundred minutes 2575 02:21:22.479 --> 02:21:24.920 right then was not possible. I want to do what 2576 02:21:25.000 --> 02:21:27.440 I can to rip a bunch of those and not 2577 02:21:27.680 --> 02:21:29.040 sit in front of the TV and be able to 2578 02:21:29.079 --> 02:21:32.280 listen to it elsewhere while I'm taking the kids to 2579 02:21:33.000 --> 02:21:36.120 an appointment, or being able to be outside while I 2580 02:21:36.159 --> 02:21:40.040 have the commentary my earbuds or something. One shout out 2581 02:21:40.120 --> 02:21:42.959 for the Deaf Crocodile podcast right now. I adore that 2582 02:21:43.040 --> 02:21:46.079 they allow me to release as episodes their audio commentaries 2583 02:21:46.159 --> 02:21:49.319 as a podcast form. It is such an interesting way 2584 02:21:49.479 --> 02:21:53.440 to sell a disc for something if you give that 2585 02:21:53.520 --> 02:21:56.079 a chance, or for the people that have already bought it, like, 2586 02:21:56.200 --> 02:21:58.639 we're just adding to your convenience to be able to 2587 02:21:58.639 --> 02:22:01.639 spend the time with that in another format. It's something 2588 02:22:01.680 --> 02:22:05.000 that's a bonus supplement material that you can increase your 2589 02:22:05.000 --> 02:22:08.319 appreciation of a film. However, a lot of times you 2590 02:22:08.319 --> 02:22:09.680 don't need to sit in front of the movie for it. 2591 02:22:09.760 --> 02:22:12.479 I gotta be honest, like, it's really cool to immerse 2592 02:22:12.520 --> 02:22:15.040 yourself like that. You don't have to, especially if you 2593 02:22:15.120 --> 02:22:16.760 watch it on like a Tuesday night and then you 2594 02:22:16.840 --> 02:22:19.239 listen to the commentary the next day while you're commuting 2595 02:22:19.280 --> 02:22:21.319 to work. You saw it the night before, you can 2596 02:22:21.399 --> 02:22:23.879 probably when they say, oh, in this scene, she's doing this, 2597 02:22:24.719 --> 02:22:26.559 I don't need to see the scene while she's doing that. 2598 02:22:26.760 --> 02:22:27.879 I can remember. 2599 02:22:28.360 --> 02:22:29.959 Yeah, And I think a lot of people listen to 2600 02:22:30.040 --> 02:22:33.200 commentaries while they're doing other stuff around the house anyway, 2601 02:22:33.239 --> 02:22:36.360 They're not actually sitting there watching it, So I think 2602 02:22:36.399 --> 02:22:37.000 that makes sense. 2603 02:22:37.639 --> 02:22:39.719 Yeah, more commentaries this year. I need them. 2604 02:22:40.799 --> 02:22:42.920 I think we I can definitely get behind that. I 2605 02:22:43.040 --> 02:22:47.360 need to listen to quite a few more too. But okay, 2606 02:22:48.719 --> 02:22:57.399 last collections resolution is classics, so I have never I 2607 02:22:57.479 --> 02:23:00.360 need to complete the Planet of the Apes, so I 2608 02:23:00.440 --> 02:23:04.559 need to watch the last one, which is Battle. I've 2609 02:23:04.600 --> 02:23:10.559 been told it's not good, but that's okay, let's see. 2610 02:23:10.760 --> 02:23:15.399 Then I've got the hammer Dracula that I have not 2611 02:23:15.520 --> 02:23:18.000 seen all of them. I need to watch a d 2612 02:23:18.799 --> 02:23:24.479 and then The Hammer Carstein Carnstein. I always say that wrong. 2613 02:23:25.520 --> 02:23:27.799 I've seen Twins of Evil, I've seen Vampire Lovers, but 2614 02:23:27.920 --> 02:23:31.639 I have not seen Lust for a Vampire. So that's 2615 02:23:31.680 --> 02:23:36.360 coming for next year. So just with all of those 2616 02:23:36.799 --> 02:23:41.280 collections movies that I need to watch, I will have 2617 02:23:41.360 --> 02:23:46.319 completed ten collections. So that's going a nice round number 2618 02:23:46.959 --> 02:23:48.479 for that. So I'm very excited for that. 2619 02:23:49.159 --> 02:23:55.399 Nice all right, you're number four, Yeah, yeah, that's great. 2620 02:23:55.440 --> 02:23:57.879 That's cool that you're completing those. So my number four 2621 02:23:57.959 --> 02:24:01.760 another another broad one, but another one where I noticed 2622 02:24:01.879 --> 02:24:05.719 a trend that I did not love in myself. And 2623 02:24:05.840 --> 02:24:08.959 that's a lot of times when you know, I don't 2624 02:24:09.440 --> 02:24:12.239 stand off from foreign films. Ever, I don't even pay 2625 02:24:12.280 --> 02:24:14.079 attention to what language it's in or where it's from. 2626 02:24:14.200 --> 02:24:17.239 I will try to watch anything. That being said, it 2627 02:24:17.440 --> 02:24:20.680 seems like a lot of these companies that are releasing 2628 02:24:20.760 --> 02:24:24.559 stuff or theatrically, or I've seen most of them, they're 2629 02:24:24.760 --> 02:24:28.959 mostly like cult or cult adjacent titles. They're mostly horror, 2630 02:24:29.040 --> 02:24:32.399 they're mostly sci fi, they're mostly something along that realm. 2631 02:24:32.959 --> 02:24:34.719 I kind of want to beef up more of like 2632 02:24:34.840 --> 02:24:38.520 the more just foreign dramas and foreign comedies and try 2633 02:24:38.600 --> 02:24:41.280 to get into the culture side of those, because there's 2634 02:24:41.280 --> 02:24:42.920 a lot of great foreign dramas that I've seen, but 2635 02:24:43.120 --> 02:24:48.360 not enough that are just I mean able to completely 2636 02:24:48.479 --> 02:24:51.520 go through this. I have loved most of the ones 2637 02:24:51.559 --> 02:24:53.719 that I've seen, and I need to see more. It's 2638 02:24:53.799 --> 02:24:55.959 not easy to track

some of them down. That's the 2639 02:24:56.000 --> 02:24:59.840 hard part. But yeah, I love them. I love foreign films, 2640 02:25:00.000 --> 02:25:00.559 and I need more. 2641 02:25:01.879 --> 02:25:05.879 It's a good goal, so very fitting. Like on that note, 2642 02:25:06.159 --> 02:25:09.920 my last resolution for this, I've got five more in 2643 02:25:10.040 --> 02:25:15.920 our episode next week. But my last resolution here is 2644 02:25:17.399 --> 02:25:21.280 I want to green out more stuff on the world map. 2645 02:25:21.639 --> 02:25:25.600 So if you go to your letterbox stats you all time, 2646 02:25:26.200 --> 02:25:28.319 scroll all the way to the bottom. It'll show you 2647 02:25:28.959 --> 02:25:33.079 your map and like they're greened out, like bright green 2648 02:25:33.280 --> 02:25:37.639 if you've watched movies from that country. So I want 2649 02:25:37.680 --> 02:25:41.079 to try to get a good handful more from those. 2650 02:25:41.159 --> 02:25:44.600 So I've found like ten countries where I could actually 2651 02:25:44.760 --> 02:25:47.920 find movies that were you know, streaming somewhere that made 2652 02:25:49.000 --> 02:25:52.799 made sense. That's a great resolution, Celeste. Everyone should have 2653 02:25:52.879 --> 02:25:55.680 that resolution that watch more Rosalbanieri. That's it. 2654 02:25:59.040 --> 02:26:02.360 But I've heard you say her name more than anyone 2655 02:26:02.399 --> 02:26:03.239 else of the planet. 2656 02:26:05.680 --> 02:26:07.920 Lance does her name more than I do? But well, yes, 2657 02:26:09.559 --> 02:26:12.879 So world map gaps that I think I can easily 2658 02:26:13.040 --> 02:26:22.799 fill next year Greenland, Bolivia, Ecuador, Ukraine, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Afghanistan. 2659 02:26:23.639 --> 02:26:28.760 Slightly more challenging maybe Madagascar, Sri Lanka and Egypt. But 2660 02:26:29.040 --> 02:26:35.040 I think with the with t B canopy that's true, 2661 02:26:35.479 --> 02:26:37.399 all those I should be able to get those. But 2662 02:26:37.440 --> 02:26:39.639 I think I can at minimum, I can get five 2663 02:26:39.959 --> 02:26:40.760 of those countries. 2664 02:26:42.200 --> 02:26:44.639 I think there's a I think there's an Egyptian film 2665 02:26:44.680 --> 02:26:47.680 in one of the World Cinema Project box sets too, Okay, 2666 02:26:48.559 --> 02:26:50.079 I think if I remember right. 2667 02:26:50.360 --> 02:26:54.639 Okay, yeah, I should watch more of my shelf. That's 2668 02:26:54.719 --> 02:26:58.440 just a given. I think that's everyone's anyone who's resolution 2669 02:26:58.639 --> 02:26:59.399 that's like on there. 2670 02:26:59.639 --> 02:27:03.639 That's the understood. Yeah, that's always there. And my last 2671 02:27:03.680 --> 02:27:05.319 one has nothing to do with the shelf, So that's 2672 02:27:05.360 --> 02:27:08.479 kind of fitting as well. My last one is I 2673 02:27:09.120 --> 02:27:11.600 kind of I'd never really focused on it. I want 2674 02:27:11.639

--> 02:27:13.680 to make an effort to go to more film festivals. 2675 02:27:14.559 --> 02:27:17.319 I went to one in kind of a half this year, 2676 02:27:17.879 --> 02:27:22.440 and I really enjoyed the experience, the amount of being 2677 02:27:22.440 --> 02:27:25.000 able to talk to filmmakers, the amount of being able 2678 02:27:25.040 --> 02:27:27.120 to see some things early, the amount of being able 2679 02:27:27.159 --> 02:27:30.639 to see like the actual struggles behind some of these films, 2680 02:27:30.639 --> 02:27:32.799 and like the fight for distribution and the fight for 2681 02:27:33.280 --> 02:27:35.840 being treated right as a filmmaker who put years of 2682 02:27:35.920 --> 02:27:39.120 their life into their first film and now like just 2683 02:27:39.280 --> 02:27:42.280 the hustle to get it out there. It's not something 2684 02:27:42.399 --> 02:27:46.120 that is easily recognizable until you've been like a part 2685 02:27:46.159 --> 02:27:48.159 of it with somebody and witness it up close. And 2686 02:27:48.280 --> 02:27:50.719 so it's nice to see some of that. So, yeah, 2687 02:27:50.799 --> 02:27:53.079 I'm gonna hope to go to a few awesome. 2688 02:27:53.280 --> 02:27:55.120 Do you have anyones in mind in particular you want 2689 02:27:55.120 --> 02:27:55.639 to try to get to? 2690 02:27:56.239 --> 02:27:57.760 Oh, well, the easy ones. I'm going to try to 2691 02:27:57.760 --> 02:28:00.399 go to Saint Louis again because it's close and panic 2692 02:28:00.479 --> 02:28:03.159 fest here in Kansas City. But I just for the 2693 02:28:03.200 --> 02:28:06.159 first time, I'd never done this before, never got a passport, 2694 02:28:06.239 --> 02:28:07.760 never been out of the country. I just got my 2695 02:28:07.799 --> 02:28:11.399 passport today, and so I'm I'm even thinking maybe trying 2696 02:28:11.440 --> 02:28:12.600 to do TIFFs or something. 2697 02:28:13.079 --> 02:28:14.920 Okay, she work for immigration. 2698 02:28:15.079 --> 02:28:17.879 You don't have a passport, I've never had a passport 2699 02:28:17.879 --> 02:28:19.239 and never been out of the country, and I've just 2700 02:28:19.319 --> 02:28:20.120 helped people come in. 2701 02:28:20.520 --> 02:28:23.360 Oh well, I appreciate you for that. But I mean, 2702 02:28:25.959 --> 02:28:28.399 oh yeah, I did log Panama the other day. That's 2703 02:28:28.399 --> 02:28:30.799 why I watched it. That's what like sort of inspired 2704 02:28:30.879 --> 02:28:33.159 the whole thing where I was like, I watched my 2705 02:28:33.239 --> 02:28:38.040 first Panamanian horror movie like that, which one Panamanian movie Diablo, 2706 02:28:39.559 --> 02:28:48.479 Oh Diablo, Yes, which was I mean, I'm proud of them. 2707 02:28:49.200 --> 02:28:49.639 I'll say that. 2708 02:28:53.319 --> 02:28:54.719 It's a good thing. One of us isn't working on 2709 02:28:54.760 --> 02:29:01.479 special features for that film right this moment. Anyways, Yes, 2710 02:29:02.120 --> 02:29:05.600 this this is exciting. Yeah, any any other off the wall, 2711 02:29:05.799 --> 02:29:08.000 like plans for film festivals or anything. You doing this, 2712 02:29:08.040 --> 02:29:11.239 You're exciting for that. Other than we'll like, uh, of 2713 02:29:11.360 --> 02:29:13.440 course Horror Gives Back is going to be a thing again. 2714 02:29:14.239 --> 02:29:18.440 Yeah, world, we'll do you know, we always do june'splitation 2715 02:29:18.879 --> 02:29:23.280 and then Horror gives Back for for charity. I don't 2716 02:29:23.319 --> 02:29:27.319 have any plans for film festivals. I think I did 2717 02:29:27.360 --> 02:29:32.639 it a few times and just I think I'm past 2718 02:29:34.639 --> 02:29:36.559 because it's I mean, it is all new movies and 2719 02:29:36.639 --> 02:29:39.079 I like the last time, last couple of times I went, 2720 02:29:39.319 --> 02:29:42.719 I just found myself wanting to go to the retrospective 2721 02:29:42.760 --> 02:29:45.719 screenings and like like the Park Chan Wook one, I 2722 02:29:45.920 --> 02:29:48.040 was like, why is why is this not full? Like 2723 02:29:48.120 --> 02:29:50.680 what is what's wrong with people? And everyone's like, we're 2724 02:29:50.680 --> 02:29:53.040 want to see the new Silent Night Deadly Night remake? 2725 02:29:53.719 --> 02:29:53.879 You know? 2726 02:29:55.040 --> 02:29:59.079 You know? So no, I. 2727 02:30:00.840 --> 02:30:03.079 If there's anything playing at Fantastic Fest that I really 2728 02:30:03.120 --> 02:30:04.920 want to see. The good thing about them is that 2729 02:30:05.079 --> 02:30:08.879 you can buy a one off ticket on standby, which 2730 02:30:08.879 --> 02:30:13.760 I've done a couple of times. So so if something 2731 02:30:13.799 --> 02:30:15.680 comes up that I really want to see and if 2732 02:30:15.719 --> 02:30:19.879 it's playing on film, then yeah, I'll probably go out 2733 02:30:19.920 --> 02:30:24.040 of my way. But no, no big plans other than 2734 02:30:25.680 --> 02:30:28.559 hopefully finished Volume two by mid year. 2735 02:30:29.600 --> 02:30:31.159 Yeah, I don't want to ask about it, do you. 2736 02:30:31.440 --> 02:30:33.000 You don't have a timeline for when you want to 2737 02:30:33.000 --> 02:30:34.719 finish or anything other than mid year, I guess. 2738 02:30:35.079 --> 02:30:36.959 I mean I wanted to finish at the end of 2739 02:30:37.040 --> 02:30:38.639 this year, but that's just not happening. 2740 02:30:38.879 --> 02:30:41.600 So a lot of work. Yeah, it is. 2741 02:30:43.799 --> 02:30:46.200 The hard part too, is that like some of these 2742 02:30:46.280 --> 02:30:50.440 movies I just put in the appendix, but I because 2743 02:30:50.440 --> 02:30:53.200 I watched them, like you know, three four years ago, 2744 02:30:53.879 --> 02:30:55.239 and I was like, I don't have anything to write 2745 02:30:55.239 --> 02:30:57.040 about them now, and now I am putting them like 2746 02:30:57.200 --> 02:30:59.120 in with the proper write up, and I

don't remember 2747 02:30:59.159 --> 02:31:01.280 the movie, so I'm like to fucking rewatch that thing. 2748 02:31:02.239 --> 02:31:08.479 So that's you know, it's it's time consuming, but I 2749 02:31:08.520 --> 02:31:12.200 don't know. I'm hoping by mid year. I'm I'm I've 2750 02:31:12.280 --> 02:31:14.319 been keeping up a good pace where like I've been 2751 02:31:14.360 --> 02:31:17.120 getting at least two to three write ups done per 2752 02:31:17.280 --> 02:31:23.399 day on average, but there still are you know, I've 2753 02:31:23.440 --> 02:31:26.600 got about four chapters left. But it's exciting because I've 2754 02:31:26.600 --> 02:31:31.799 gotten a lot of interviews with people for this this version. 2755 02:31:32.000 --> 02:31:37.040 So so far I've got like ten interviews with directors 2756 02:31:37.200 --> 02:31:42.959 or other filmmakers. So yeah, that's it. 2757 02:31:44.680 --> 02:31:47.840 Incredible as usual. I will say you should be following 2758 02:31:47.879 --> 02:31:50.760 everything Erica does because they are amazing, of course, but 2759 02:31:51.360 --> 02:31:53.879 on Sung Horror specifically, if you've never given it a listen, 2760 02:31:54.559 --> 02:31:58.959 the conversations tonight kind of rely heavily on the exact 2761 02:31:59.000 --> 02:32:02.799 sensibilities behind. On course, for those that have never heard it, 2762 02:32:02.920 --> 02:32:05.000 it is a film that or a show that is 2763 02:32:05.079 --> 02:32:07.040 dedicated to films with less than a thousand views on 2764 02:32:07.040 --> 02:32:10.840 a Letterboxed literally Unsung Horse.
