IsambardPrinceMinceR, So I finally figured out where TNG got the plot for that episode with David Ogden Stiers from.May 05 00:00
IsambardPrinceYou know, the one where everyone who gets old has to kill themselves so they won't be a burden to society?May 05 00:00
IsambardPrinceLwaxanna Troi convinces him to seek asylum from Captain Picard, but then he chooses to return to his planet and go through with it because his family will be dishonored if he doesn't.May 05 00:01
IsambardPrinceIt was a Japanese move called The Ballad of Narayama.May 05 00:01
IsambardPrinceIt's about a remote village in the hillside where people who turned 70 were expected to go to the top of the mountain and die so they wouldn't compete with the others for food.May 05 00:02
IsambardPrinceThe movie follows the story of a woman who turns 70 and is in good health but who is expected to do it anyway just because she turned 70.May 05 00:03

IsambardPrinceI've seen Ice Station Zebra a few times.May 05 00:08
IsambardPrinceThat was Howard Hughes's favorite movie.May 05 00:08
IsambardPrinceWhen he became a recluse and lived in a hotel in Vegas, he bought a TV station and he'd call them and tell them to interrupt the schedule to start whatever movie he wanted to watch. Which is a billionaire solution for not having VCRs yet. :)May 05 00:09
IsambardPrinceHe had them play Ice Station Zebra dozens of times.May 05 00:09
MinceR:)May 05 00:10
IsambardPrinceIf it was me and I had the means to do that, and had to do it, they would get SO sick of Blade Runner, Spirited Away, and Stop Making Sense.May 05 00:12
IsambardPrinceI remember when... ;)May 05 00:14
IsambardPrinceAnyway, getting the 65" TV home and hooking up the Blu Ray player and skipping straight to Girlfriend Is Better so I could see Savid Byrne come onto the stage in the big suit.May 05 00:15

IsambardPrinceMinceR, It's usually safe to buy used discs when they say Like New, but obviously not always.May 05 00:56
IsambardPrinceI looked at an ebay listing for a Blu Ray a couple days ago and someone's dog had chewed it and it had library markings on the front.May 05 00:56
IsambardPrinceI'm like "I don't think we mean the same thing by Very Good."May 05 00:57
MinceRlolMay 05 00:58
MinceR"well, i mean, the dog liked it a lot!"May 05 00:58
IsambardPrinceThe dog thought Seven Samurai on Blu Ray remastered by Criterion and originally retailed for $51.98 was 5 star. Would chew again.May 05 01:08
IsambardPrinceCriterion tends to lower their price after the movie has been in their catalog for a while.May 05 01:09
IsambardPrinceMost people who will pay the original retail price already have it.May 05 01:10
IsambardPrinceI usually wait until the release is at least 3-4 years old and the market is flooded.May 05 01:12
IsambardPrinceThe price will be about as low as it's going to get.May 05 01:12

IsambardPrinceWB has always been very reasonable.May 05 02:04
IsambardPrinceFor people who bought HD DVD movies, all they had to do was send the WB titles in with $5 per disc and WB would send them out Blu Ray replacements.May 05 02:04
IsambardPrinceSo if you had a stack of WB titles you didn't have to buy them all over again at full price.May 05 02:04
IsambardPrinceMany studios said buy the title again on Blu Ray, full retail.May 05 02:06
IsambardPrinceAll the disc formats are backward compatible. So there's really very little risk here of investing in one format then becoming unable to play it, like what happened with VHS or Beta.May 05 02:07
IsambardPrinceHD DVD was not compatible with Blu Ray obviously, but it also didn't last long, and the discs are not totally worthless if you find some for a dollar at a thrift shop.May 05 02:08
IsambardPrinceThey all have a DVD side.May 05 02:08
IsambardPrinceThat will play in a DVD or Blu Ray player, in DVD quality.May 05 02:08
IsambardPrinceMinceR, I liked what someone said about Stanley Kubrick. That he'd never tell people what they did wrong in that take that Kubrick didn't like. They'd say "What do you want me to do differently?" He'd say, "How about some better acting?"May 05 02:17

IsambardPrinceMinceR, There are definitely people I'd trap in a room with a TV and VCR and a copy of Bio-Dome on VHS. Just so I could do my take on James Bond in Quantum of Solace when he gives the guy a quart of motor oil and makes him walk through a desert. "I'll bet you make it an entire week before you're desperate enough to watch that.May 05 02:24

IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2], They haven't officially stopped making Blu Ray players.May 05 11:48
IsambardPrinceThere's still a ton of new releases.May 05 11:48
IsambardPrinceBut there's less brands, less models, for the players.May 05 11:48
IsambardPrinceThey just keep making players that came out in 2016 or so.May 05 11:49
IsambardPrinceI suppose it's all you really need.May 05 11:49
IsambardPrinceCriterion is giving a Blu Ray in every UHD Blu Ray they sell.May 05 11:50
IsambardPrinceI think that says something.May 05 11:50
IsambardPrinceWith Blu Ray, they only give you the BD.May 05 11:50
IsambardPrinceWith DVD, it's just the DVD.May 05 11:50
IsambardPrinceMany people hand off the DVD that comes in those combo packs to a friend or something.May 05 11:50
IsambardPrinceI think Criterion is hedging on the UHD Blu Ray because they only started doing those releases in November of 2021, and they're handing you a Blu Ray in case they stop making UHD players I guess?May 05 11:51
IsambardPrinceSo they don't have angry customers with huge libraries of discs that won't play at all.May 05 11:51

IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2], I think standard Blu Ray has enough users that someone will sell players for years to come.May 05 11:52
IsambardPrinceWalmart has a house brand Blu Ray player now.May 05 11:52
IsambardPrinceSo if nothing else, you could use that one.May 05 11:52
IsambardPrinceThere's a lot of use cases where streaming wouldn't work even if you wanted it.May 05 11:53

IsambardPrinceschestowitz[TR2], A film reel doesn't have to be extremely old to have significant problems. Look at what happened to Star Wars between approximately 1977 and 1997, or Disney's Beauty and The Beast between 1991 and 2011..May 05 21:54
IsambardPrinceIt costs a ton of money to go back and clean and rescan film.May 05 21:55
IsambardPrinceDisney said in the insert that there was "white dust" and "water spots" all over Beauty and The Beast and it had only been 20 years.May 05 21:55
IsambardPrinceAnd they're Disney, right? They have the money to store the film in ideal conditions.May 05 21:55
IsambardPrinceDid they not do this or what happened?May 05 21:56
IsambardPrinceThe Disney Vault wasn't just a metaphor, although it was also a marketing rub.May 05 21:58
IsambardPrinceWhat they used to do was run a batch of tapes or DVDs or something then take the film out of print again for a while.May 05 21:58
IsambardPrinceThat controls supply and adds urgency for people to buy a copy while they can.May 05 21:59
IsambardPrinceThen some time goes by and some people's kids are monsters that destroy some of the tapes and discs.May 05 21:59
IsambardPrinceThen years later Disney runs off another batch.May 05 21:59
IsambardPrinceBut with Disney Plus, the idea is it's always there but when you stop paying you have no copies.May 05 21:59
IsambardPrinceIn the late 1980s, George Lucas testified to Congress in support of the rights of directors. He complained that the studios were micromanaging film and taking creative control from directors and putting out a version the director didn't want.May 05 22:06
IsambardPrinceIn the testimony, he said that people who change the meaning of classic films with revisionist edits are "barbarians".May 05 22:07
IsambardPrinceI suppose that was a dig at Ted Turner colorizing black and white movies.May 05 22:07
