Everyone should support amc this weekend (no joke)
 

well just to let you know, they are doing a marathon of music movies. BUT, for the first time in ages, they will be showing the movies in widescreen and uncut heres the schedule:

gimmie shelter rolling stones altamont concert doc. tv-ma 2:30 sat
the last waltz tv-ma widescreen 4:15 sat
u2 rattle and hum widescreen tv-ma 6:15 pm sat
this is spinal tap widescreen tv-ma 8:00 pm sat
the rocky horror show widescreen tv-ma 9:30 sat
saturday night feaver widescreen tv-ma (possible r rated version) 8:00 pm sun

what do you think about this and are you gonna watch?

:up: I guess I'll start watching AMC again. But I tought they already were showing some movies uncut?

actually, its just for this weekend only since later this week, revenge of the nerds and hoosiers are shown cut and pan and scan.

oh yeah, amc might have shown movies uncut but not anymore, in there opinion graphic violence is ok but the word "ass" is offensive and cut (speed did this)

Very very cool. :)
they get my support!

I know AMC doesn't show enough movies in widescreen, but I seem to recall that during the memorial day weekend, when they were sowing a lot of war movies, and a lot of them seemed uncut, like they had the F word, and other explicit language. But actually, I think that was a couple of years ago. :)

thanks for the heads-up

Way to flame my thread.

ah shlt, right now, damn it, is u2 rattle and hum in full screen and possibly edited. so unless the begining is full screen then it goes to widescreen, they screwed us.

but the last waltz was in widescreen so thats good.

sorry, i originaly thought that they were gonna be full screen due to amc's past, but according to the tv guide, they were all in widescreen, so sorry about that and also, i couldnt find your older thread.

never mind i even posted this, spinal tap was edited a little and pan and scan and a really craptacuar transfer and as usuall when they play rocky horror, its edited and pan and scan as well. apperently the tv guide messed up big time.

Ah, pulling out of the supporrt amc wagon now, back to TCM.

I moved and i don't have cable yet :mad: but this sounds cool.

AMC :up:

this is really wierd. since during there midnight showing of rocky horror, they decided to show this movie uncut (i heard the words "god damnit" which is a no no word on tv) and in an aspect ratio of what seemed to be 1:66. what is the true oar of rhps. and now they are showing the led zeppelin movie the song remains the same in 1:85. so some are and some are go figure.

Finally saw "Godspell"...actually, I couldn't get through it, only watched an hour of it...did they really close down Central Park to film this dreck? Where were all the muggers when you really need them?
