Perception of programming versus the reality
*lmfahs
Reminds me of the very realistic hacking portrayed in the classic film Hackers.
Video World - The Death of a Video Store
Sigh. We had two really awesome video rental places nearby that survived until around 2008. They always had all the good indie and classic films from decades ago, but at some point in the 2000s people just stopped returning the rarer vids. I remember calling every video rental store in the area looking for Kids and Gummo and being pissed off because people who rented those movies usually just kept them and never came back.
I stopped going after the locals spots started offering to sell you a rental if it wasn't a new release or if it was a VHS (even if it was not released on DVD yet!). Not that I didn't like new releases, but sometimes you just want to watch something like Commando but you don't want to add it to your collection because maybe you'll watch it once every ten years or so. Then you go to the store and there's no Commando available because someone snatched it up. That ruined the concept of video rental for me. I would just end up ranting with the clerk for like an hour about good movies and rental blues, then head home empty handed.
Now I have Netflix -- but it doesn't even have a comment section any more. Oh well, IMDB boards ftw.
"The Truth" | Official Kia K900 Morpheus Big Game Commercial
Yay! Let's bastardize as many classic films as possible for car commercials!
This is almost as good as the Ferris Bueller one.
Tarantino XX: 8-Film Collection Official Trailer
>> ^dystopianfuturetoday:
I find Hi-Def to be jarring when watching old beloved films. It loses that dreamy painted quality and looks more like closed circuit television. Filmmakers put a lot of effort into creating a beautiful celluloid pallor, which HD Blu-Ray usually just rudely brushes aside. I have a sneaking suspicion that QT feels the same way, because he is a student of classic cinema. I'll be curious to see if QT finds a way to keep the old school warmth. Either way, this looks awesome. Take my money, please.
Are you sure you don't have some kind of motion smoothing on, or some similar effect? Because it sure sounds like it. A good Blu-ray transfer of a classic film looks far, far more film-like than any DVD is able to muster. Modern TVs default to the closed circuit television, or soap opera look, which absolutely baffles me.
I read an article that said that a good rule of thumb is that any video setting that can be turned off on a TV should be turned off. Modern TVs look like garbage by default. Though I suspect that you know how to calibrate your TV, and in that case I honestly have no idea what you're talking about. Blu-rays are awesome.
Groundhog Day: I Am A God
It's funny how you rarely hear people going against this film. It just works so well on various levels that everyone gets something from it. It is a classic film.
Roddy McDowall's home movies from Planet Of The Apes -1968
This is amazing to see the make-up process of a classic film, also how good the techniques were considering that it was only the late 60s yet looks very convincing.
i swear if that were me getting made up i would want to just walk to streets in that outfit just to freak-out people.
Brave - Disney/Pixar - Sneak Peek Clip
@EvilDeathBee Everything you said +1 Pixar doing classic films, Cars 2 being crap, not having high hopes for this, it looking like a Dreamworks pic, and Tangled being surprisingly awesome.
You sir/Mam, have impeccable taste
man gets owned by stray dog
Yeah, you didn't do yourself a favour when titling, but great scene from classic film.

The Neverending Story (1984) Inama Nushif
>> ^Hybrid:
Great music, classic film. But I don't think this song was in The NeverEnding Story.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inama_Nushif
No, The music is a completely separate thing from the film. Not presented as "music from the film", but as a fan vid created with That particular piece of music being used to illustrate the movie The Neverending Story. They mesh quite nicely.
