I've just recently become interested in the Studio Ghibli films, after borrowing Ponyo from my local library. This was the first time I'd seen a Japanese animated film, and it was outstanding! I will probably be getting my own copy on Blu-ray soon. :) Besides the upcoming Nausicaä of the Valley of ...

The so-called average film is still shot on 35mm motion picture film. The process of placing motion picture film content onto DVD is one of subtraction, no matter the genre or style. 35mm release prints, 2k digital cinema presentation formats, & BD all share one thing in common: exponentially gr...

I draw the line on re-buying DAC in 3D. To paraphrase a comment I read elsewhere online it's like colourizing black and white movies and I don't care for that kind of alteration. I'm waiting to see the results, myself. I've heard nothing but good things about the 3D rendering of <i>BaTB</i>. Most o...

For those waiting to see vintage live-action Disney titles debut on BD, industry insider Penton-Man over at blu-ray.com dropped a nice little <a href="http://forum.blu-ray.com/insider-discussion/31882-club-penton-ask-questions-hollywood-insider-penton-man-824.html#post4216351">tidbit</a> i...

WDHE says they'll release <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE7023XZ20110103">15</a> films on 3D BD next year? <i>Tangled, Tron: Legacy, The Lion King, Beauty & the Beast, Bolt, Meet the Robinsons, The Nightmare Before Christmas, G-Force</i>, and <i>Chicken Little</i>. That ...

I dunno...I've been happy to loan out a number of movies without really losing anything from my home library. I've played a couple bundled digital copies on plane trips, and a few of the DVDs on roadtrips with the kids. Honestly, I think what I like best about the bundles I've bought is I've been ab...

I've enjoyed my 3D experiences at the cinema, though they have been few. My PS3 can play 3D, thanks to Sony's upgrades, but I don't know when I'll be able to buy a new TV. I may hold out for the glasses-less 3D sets, at which Toshiba and Sony are hard at work, but that'll take some time and they'll ...

While I won't dispute your numbers (even though you haven't sourced them), <i>Avatar</i>: Extended is your only example that holds any weight, since all of the other titles had DVDs bundled with their Blu-rays. You could just as easily state 100% of all copies of some of those titles sold were on D...

Dear DVD: It's not you. It's me. You're just...so standard definition. You've been a valuable part of the organization, don't get me wrong. 95% US household penetration, the most successful electronics product launch ever, redefining the significance of the home entertainment industry, vast amounts ...

I wonder why they're being so random about what they're releasing on blu-ray and what they're only releasing on DVD. If only for the sake of uniformity, I wish they'd release them all on Blu. They're not Disney's films. Disney can't release any Ghibli films on BD that Ghibli has yet to release on B...

The fact that Uncle Remus is free to close up his home and openly leave the plantation for Atlanta in a carriage in mid-afternoon clearly sets the film after slavery is abolished. How else could this key plot point be possible? The specificity of setting (noted by the screenwriter in many interview...

Just out of curiosity, can you point to anything in the film that makes explicit the time element of the setting?

It's not a particularly extended scene, but Christmas is celebrated in <i>Swiss Family Robinson</i>.

It would seem that very little here constitutes anything resembling actual *censorship* and that censorship is neither precisely nor exclusively what you're looking for.

...so? Why on *earth* are you invested in whether or not he cares or listens or disagrees? Goliath and I go back a bit; we've been having serious discussions and heated debates here for almost 2 years now. What do I care? I don't want to be rude but, you don't understand that question. And I don't ...

They are cowards end of story. Yup. But... they did have the guts to put the Tar Baby in Who Framed Roger Rabbit (watch the scene when Eddie is driving into Toontown), and I thought Huck Finn covered darker themes, and that one is out on DVD. Same with Treaure of Matecumbe , it's got the KKK in it ...

The film itself would seem to be lacking in outright educational value---clearly, if it's possible to pose the following in all earnestness--- But black people singing being happy as they make money working for their former "owners" who happen to be nice to them and making friends with the...

Why do I get the feeling you're reading way too much in my posts (and, apparently, other people's, posts as well)? I think you're simply seeing things that aren't there. And this isn't the first time. Nice try; no sale. Are you honestly telling me that you actually listen to what I say about music,...
