Re: SPORTS

Despite the Diamondbacks leading the NL West quite a time earlier in the season, they were still much maligned that eventually proved to be a righteous call since they fell precipitously in the second half quite a bit back. Curtains? Not quite, they slipped into the playoffs the second last day of ...

Re: DVD Netflix Shutting Down

I also subscribe to the Criterion Channel which lately has been killing it in terms of their classic film offerings. Criterion Channel is my go to streaming service now. This month is fantastic: Pre-Code Horror The Black Cat The Dark Old House Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde Doctor X Freaks Island of Lost ...

Re: DVD Netflix Shutting Down

Two months ago I switched from three at a time ($20/mo.) to eight at a time ($58/mo.) to take advantage of the foreign film inventory. Two weeks after with any such film I put on the queue, I would check The Criterion Channel and/or my local library and found that many were available there. I have ...

Re: DVD Netflix Shutting Down

I re-upped and I am going through my queue. I am prioritizing hard to find titles that Netflix still has, even though their selection has declined from it's heyday. I just finished with newer films that are exclusive to Disney, Paramount, Showtime etc. which I won't subscribe to since I have too man...

Re: Upcoming Criterion Releases

In time for Halloween, Criterion will be releasing a Tod Browning collection. Makes me think that WAC will release The Devil-Doll or The Unholy Three in October. https://s3.amazonaws.com/criterion-production/product_images/2030-ba7eefa3ad5a2a35a6f5275ed961aba8/hOZoF4bCF7IzDcERWmpFpAgST1yAxY_large.jpg

Re: The Warner Archive

Great list! I would buy blu rays of Twentieth Century, Ball of Fire and A Tree Grows in Brooklyn in a minute. I have a bunch of these titles on DVD, but a blu ray would be exciting. I feel like "The More the Merrier," "Ball of Fire," "Captain Blood," and "Twentiet...

Re: The Warner Archive

This is a great list of movies. If I didn't already own them, I'd be all over "Angel Face," The Damned Don't Cry," and "Caged." I am probably going to get "Dangerous When Wet" to replace a damaged DVD I have. Like you I don't feel the need to replace movies I alre...

Re: The Warner Archive

I'm definitely getting the Looney Tunes set. I always love Bugs and the gang. Queen Christina is awesome. I already have it though, not sure if I need to get the blu ray. I keep trying to watch "Clash by Night," and I should like it just for the cast, but I keep losing interest in it. May...

Re: SPORTS

So watching the Rangers at Cubs today there was no seventh inning stretch, no Take Me Out to the Ballgame. Is that part of the new rules too? Which team's feed were you watching? If it was the Marquee feed, they would feature it. The Rangers feed probably would not, especially if it's the taped Har...

Re: I Just Watched...

Today I mainly watched more early silent short films. I won't go into detail on them, but here's a list, starting with the ones directed by George Méliès. Where are you watching these? I'm interested in watching some more. Criterion Channel had a collection a few years back and I watched them all a...
