Considering the last-minute change he made to the end of The Shining, I wouldn't have been surprised if he had delayed the release to adjust it a bit more.Cinemaspectionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03677204852599391459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-29309541767609925832015-07-28T19:46:56.662-05:002015-07-28T19:46:56.662-05:00I hope it'll let me play Pearl Jam Twenty.I hope it'll let me play Pearl Jam Twenty.

Quite the contrary I found someone posted "My Oppo has identified it as being a region FREE disc playable on Blu-ray machines worldwide." I doubt that would be a problem unless somehow there is a setting on your player affecting this. (that would be a first).

I'm assuming it's a firmware issue, and it would be a first for me. I've had this player since my very first Blu ray purchase, Book of Eli, the week Book of Eli was released. So does this mean no Paramount release will ever play in this player again until I get am upgrade, or could it just be an isolated issue with how this disc was pressed/authored?

I'm so tired of a filmmaker trying to tell me something, when I'd rather just here experts who really know their stuff working through it and maybe even debating it. It's especially great if it's something like the Kennedy assasination which has been theorized to death by people who've not researched it extensively. (a.k.a. people like me who are too lazy) I'd like to see something like this for food/farming documentaries.Andy Bishophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17324674060230571696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-3210636178821615182015-07-27T14:51:12.263-05:002015-07-27T14:51:12.263-05:00I just saw it for the first time too, about a week...I just saw it for the first time too, about a week ago. I laughed alot at several parts of it, but it's one of those movies I could only recommend to someone I know really well. Like last year's Wain movie, They Came Together, you can enjoy it fairly well on one level if you just like absurdist comedy. It rewards you alot for recognizing the tropes it's making fun of, but I can understand why it would fall flat even for the biggest cinephiles just because of your tastes. I really enjoyed it, personally.Andy Bishophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17324674060230571696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-51007236952371533312015-07-27T14:32:47.411-05:002015-07-27T14:32:47.411-05:00The first movie I remember sitting alone in the th...The first movie I remember sitting alone in the theater was the gorgeous looking 70mm 6 track Dolby Stereo version of the sadly very lame espionage love story "Shining through" in 1992, starring Michael Douglas and Melanie Griffith. Since then I could add a few more. <br />Although I prefer to go with my best buddy, I often go alone because of time constraints regarding both our jobs. And I simply have to see as much movies as possible on the big screen.<br />Sometimes it´s a little strange sitting alone there, but the upside is often: no talking, no eating, no texting from others.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-89240126791751094452015-07-27T13:20:35.555-05:002015-07-27T13:20:35.555-05:00Just heard news that Vinegar Syndrome is launching...Just heard news that Vinegar Syndrome is launching a Exploitation.tv in August.

I think it's almost just as good as 5 and 6 (which I really liked too). As for Wan though - It felt like a first time music video director made it which had me scratching my head for a moment, then I remembered the age demographic the film is made for. I actually shouldn't have expected anything different but for some reason I did.
