Let's hope it looks better than the dated transfer that has been circulating on cable for years. Hasn't Stern more or less disavowed this movie because it's connected to his first wife? Doubt it will have any new special features.

Maybe that is why it took so long for a Blu-ray release.

That's the kinda sad part about watching this movie now. It was basically a love story and well done love letter to his then wife.

It might have been the breakout role for Paul Giamatti

I remembered there being a story about the old PP DVD. Here's an old thread on the topic.

I thought it was released or I forgot I bought it but it never came out on Blu-ray in the U.S. :lol:

Worth revisiting to see Kelly Preston in the bed scene with Arnold.

Crossroads is coming out January 12th on BD from Millcreek.

This is a really underrated 1980s movie. Incredible blues soundtrack. It will probably be available at Walmart, so I'll look for it there.

Jonah Hill really committed himself in that movie putting on an astonishing 150 extra pounds for that role.

Incredibly solid A/V quality for a movie first released when BD and HD DVD were just beginning. Mill Creek also included almost all of the special features. I don't think Accepted is a classic but it's a fun romp. There's no way a few of the jokes in it would even be allowed today, much less in a PG-13 rating.

I’m 0 for 7 on those but I’m glad to see them still supporting physical media.

Though I should probably watch The Saint at some point. I found the soundtrack at a thrift store years ago and absolutely loved it.

^^ I'm with you. I might get Bad News Bears at some point but only because I already have most of Richard Linklater's filmography.

I hope this means Jazz might come out on Blu-ray soon as well. I noticed it has been airing again, too.

As much as I’m a fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger Twins is one of my least favorite of his movies. I like him in comedies, but just not that one. Not really a fan of Junior either.

Paramount seems to be releasing quite a bit of catalog stuff lately. For the longest time it seemed like they hardly released anything. Ordered Small Soldiers once I found out it was releasing. Also plan to grab Good Burger. It’s goofy, but I liked it as a kid and was a fan of Kenan and Kel.

Same. I'm afraid it would be on of those movies you have your kid watch with you and halfway through you discover how much racist, sexist, other stuff they put in movies back then.

I remember seeing Grease on the TV at the used DVD store a while back and I was like, "how in the hell did my parents let me watch this? " It's like full of amazing songwriting, but it's dripping* with innuendos and toxic behavior.

*I'm so sorry for that choice of phrase.

What could be wrong with lyrics like this?

With a four-speed on the floor, they'll be waitin' at the door
You know that ain't no shit, we'll be getting lots of tit in Greased Lightnin'

You are supreme
The chicks'll cream
For Greased Lightnin'

I saw it when I was browsing Amazon,

They have a bunch of these old movies with VHS retro covers like Babe the John Goodman movie, Who's Harry Crumb, Hardbodies, Opportunity Knocks, Like Father Like Son, Neighbors, and Hudson Hawk.
