Re: What do you do with old audio equipment?

Is this a console stereo system? If so... bust it apart and drop it in recycling a bit at a time or remove the electronics and repurpose the cabinet. In general, those things are junk.

Re: Kino Lorber & KL Studio Classics sales, discounts, and deals

I returned to say I've rewatched the first 3 and observed the same thing on the rewatch - the PQ improves with each film. I'm watching #4 right now and it's better than #3 (not by much - but still...

Re: Kino Lorber & KL Studio Classics sales, discounts, and deals

I've not seen any abnormalities like that. I'm using an LG BP175 Br player on a ~6yo 43" Samsung TV (all image enhancements are disabled - everything's a manual setting using color bars). The...

Re: Kino Lorber & KL Studio Classics sales, discounts, and deals

Based on your comments I pulled out my Roan copy of the Mr. Wong set for a comparison. IMHO, the Kino is the winner. It's missing the video roll (mainly noticeable in dark scenes or fades to black)...

Re: The Neverending Watch The Movies You Should Have Already Seen Challenge

Violet and Daisy for you this time out...

They Drive by Night (1940) was pretty good. Though in a Borgart set, George Raft is the film's true star with Bogie coming in as 4th fiddle after Ann...

Re: Kino Lorber & KL Studio Classics sales, discounts, and deals

I filled up 3 similar units years ago... I now use 32 gallon Sterilite totes. They'll hold ~90 DVDs or ~120 BRs (there are over 60 of those - they hold the TV stuff as well). I label the tote and put...

Re: Bonus material - Waste of time or do you like knowing more about the movie?

Very, very, rarely. I voted "No" as it's been years since I last bothered with any kind of "bonus material." In a nutshell, I couldn't care less and would rather spend that time watching another...

Re: Let It Be (1970) - The Beatles -- coming to Disney+

I saw the film in the theater in May 1970 and enjoyed it enough that I purchased the album, which had also just been released. That was the first album I ever purchased. I've seen the film twice...

Re: The Neverending Watch The Movies You Should Have Already Seen Challenge

The Woman King for you. It sounds interesting.

Golden Earrings (1947) Is part war movie, part romance, and it works with both. I found it quite enjoyable in spite of my absolute disbelief a White...

Re: The Neverending Watch The Movies You Should Have Already Seen Challenge

Lets get the "Elephant in the Room" knocked out - it's War and Peace for you!

Action in the North Atlantic (1943) was a fairly standard war movie - but this time it's about the Merchant Marines, a...

Re: Kino Lorber & KL Studio Classics sales, discounts, and deals

And I *just* passed on picking up 2 or 3 of those thinking I'd pick them up later as they'd been in the sale for a while (one for over a year)... Looks like I may be making another order very soon.

Re: 40th Anniversary of Alien - May 25

Yep - and that stuff was in every other commercial break - or so it seemed. I got very tired of it and felt it was all bluster with nothing to back it up (it was in the years when SF/Horror movies...

Re: Arrow Video Sales Thread

When I try to use the US code I'm told: "Coupon code expired on: 29 February 2024 06:00" (using all caps) or that it's "Invalid or not applicable to items in your cart" (all lower case) - I have no...

Re: The Neverending Watch The Movies You Should Have Already Seen Challenge

Face Off because it surprised me when I first saw it.

Re: Kino Lorber & KL Studio Classics sales, discounts, and deals

That's such a good price I'm considering a 2nd copy to "replace" my originals that use digipak style cases (that's how much I dislike digipak cases).

Does anyone know if they also reauthored the...

Re: Kino Lorber & KL Studio Classics sales, discounts, and deals

No. The list as you see it is fixed. Some titles may go OOS but they will get more stock unless it's in the "While supplies last" section of the site (those are not included in the sale and have...

Re: Big Lots Blu-rays

Re: Target is unveiling a new membership program later this year

I'm pretty much the same. Once the media section got reduced to a single isle I gave up on them. All I purchase in store these days are a couple of grocery items when they put them on sale. ...

Re: Target is unveiling a new membership program later this year

Both WM and Target here are well kept. Target's prices are generally a bit higher than WM but it really depends on what you're purchasing. Target's grocery section is somewhat a joke (about what a...

Re: Kino Lorber & KL Studio Classics sales, discounts, and deals

That's a bit unfair... Kino is a rather small business. If they've increased sale prices it's likely due to increases they've seen on the production end. I've not noticed an increase in their MSRP...

Re: The Neverending Watch The Movies You Should Have Already Seen Challenge

I Saw What you Did for you this time out. It's one of those "prank call goes wrong" type films so popular in the 60s.

Call Northside 777 (1948) was an interesting film based on a true story of a...
