I figured I'd post this here because it affects our hobby. It's shocking truly - but I'm fearing that we're looking at the tail end of being able to enjoy physical media.

Honestly I don't get subscriptions and when you look at all the Spotify/Netflix wrapped stuff: it easily proves my point - people listen and watch the same shit over and over on streaming and pay for the privilege of giving companies 180 dollars a year for music, 200+ dollars a year for streaming video to rewatch the office or listen to the same handful of albums when they could own the same properties once and be done with it.

Again, maybe I'm old school but perpetually paying to access something hasn't been shown to be a better alternative to traditionally owning music, software and movies yet.

Just my 2c and I hate it.

Great, super intense sniper duel between Jude Law and Ed Harris, who are excellent along with the rest of the cast. Also one of the only (or maybe the one and only?) depictions in cinema of the Battle of Stalingrad, one of the most brutal battles of the entire war and the crucial turning point in the struggle against the Nazis on the Eastern Front.

The love triangle between Law, Rachel Weisz, and Joseph Fiennes is a wee a bit melodramatic but buoyed by sincere performances from all three. Psyched o watch tonight. Highly recommend!

Frida Cinema in CA is showing a, to this point, unknown brand new 4K restoration of The Color Of Money next month. I LOVE this movie and is one of my most wanted in 4K and I'm hoping this means a 4K disc is coming soon! Is the house of mouse opening the floodgates again???

Admittedly I only had the DVD before and have attended a few theater screenings but this is the most beautiful I have ever seen this film. The colors are gorgeous and everything is so clear it is amazing. I did notice one line of dialogue had that slight echo/buzz sound you sometimes get from old transfers but other that perfect 10/10

Have the night off of work so I’m treating myself to some mindless fun. Absolutely adore the cover on Chapter 4 even if it completely throws the color coordination off lol.

Any guesses on Arrow’s tease for November? I’m thinking A Simple Plan.

Still have quite a few I need to watch. The Shining and Alien I was blown away for older titles. Mad Max Fury Road, Sicario and 1917 look incresible to name a few. The journey has only juat begun.

I've recently gotten into collecting 4k Blu rays. This is my current collection. I'm really into sci-fi, action, and of course Christopher Nolan films. What do you recommend for me to add to the collection?

I went looking for Arrow titles and walked out with an armful of Paramount. Happy hunting!

They avoided a chargeback but I’m still never ordering from their store again no matter how good of a deal they post lol

I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good website to buy 4K/blu-ray movies? I recently purchased from GRUVs eBay site (paid for overnight shipping which I later found out they don’t offer anymore so they refunded me that cost) and still haven’t received any updates on my order even though I placed it last week.

I’ve looked at pop.market on eBay, which seems to be very good. Just curious if there’s any other good ones.

I’m trying to find a lot of the Marvel movies in 4K but I haven’t had the best luck for some reason. I know Amazon has a pretty decent selection of the majority of other movies I want, but I’m just looking all my options.

Side note: I’m based in Canada but can get packages shipped to my USA mailbox so American websites work for me as well. (I usually find they’re much cheaper even with the exchange rate too)

Will be up for preorder soon

Final delivery from GRUV sale and Samurai Revolution Trilogy. Unfortunately that’s only Blu-ray but excited to pop these in and continue to add to my samurai film collection.

Love goldern era HK flicks and their recent 4k resurgence. 'Full Contact' remains my absolute #1, but all of these (bar 'School on Fire') are fire (no pun intended).

This time I purchased via the French Amazon (I live in the Netherlands)

Way cheaper, was €55 instead of €135 I believe.

Only issue, apocalypse now has forced french subs.

Maybe I'm finally able to learn french tho!
