Jack and Grace Reenact I Love Lucy's Chocolate Factory Scene

lucky760 says...

It came as a surprise to me that they colorized a whole bunch of episodes like that!

I'd seen the couple that they colorized many years ago, e.g., a xmas episode, but I had no idea they released a DVD with 16 colorized eps!

I'll have to check those out!

Did you see the colorized episodes? I watched a few clips online a few days ago and a full Christmas episode on CBS a few years ago. They were beautiful and clear! Also, https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SNNQ31Y/ for its DVD.

Love this. ❤️

I've loved I Love Lucy from the time I was a young kid. I've seen every episode multiple times.

I've tried to get my sons into the show. They've seen an episode or two. I'm going to keep at it.

Most Popular Streaming Services - (2005 2020): Monthly users

spawnflagger says...

alternate title: The Rise and Fall of Pandora

Seems Prime numbers are inflated - they probably count all the people (like me) who have a Prime account for deliveries, and tried out the streaming video once, then realized their content selection sucked. If it wasn't included, I wouldn't pay extra for it.

What would be interesting to see for comparison is number of physical media (CD, DVD, Blu-Ray) sold in the same timeline, as well as 1-time digital purchases, such as iTunes.

Alien: In Memoriam

ant says...

Ditto. I rewatched both in HD after watching them back in 2000s or so in SD. They were still rad. I still need to get original ALIEN on disc. I have ALIENS (SE) on DVD.

I only recognize Alien and Aliens as canon. All the others are trash.

Pacific Rim Uprising - Official Trailer

newtboy says...

I think it's really part 3. There was a straight to DVD Atlantic Rim a few years back.

ChaosEngine said:

What makes you say it's a reboot? Looks like it's a sequel to me (main character is even Idris Elba's characters son).

That said, I see where you're coming from. I loved Pacific Rim; I didn't even know they were making a sequel and then I saw this and I was stoked... until I watched it.

And meh... doesn't do it for me. Shame they could get Del Toro back, and the less said about the shitty soundtrack for the trailer the better.

Still gonna watch it though, which is more than I can say about Justice League.

Now I have to go watch the Thor Ragnarok trailer again to cheer myself up.

Nerdwriter - How Not To Adapt A Movie

cloudballoon says...

I've seen most of the GitS material incl. the comics & anime. I actually found the Hollywood adaptation watchable.... because I placed it in its own little isolated corner and the lowest of expectations -- Hollywood, blockbuster, skin-deep sci-fi... and I came out much relieved it wasn't as bad as the critics said. At least I had a nostalgia blast from the visuals. My blockbuster movies watching has evolved into a state of "don't care to be angry/don't pay to watch at the theatre/ just wait them out to be on Netflix/clearance DVD BluRay)

Seriously... how can anyone expect anything of above average depth from a Hollywood blockbuster anymore? Don't be silly and set yourself up for disappointment.

I can totally understand their reasons for risk-aversion. From their perspective, they got burned too many times financially (not saying it's not their own doing) to make films that demand thoughtfulness from the audience. I just don't believe in Hollywood will give us anything deep anymore for these big budget films...

The ultimate video game turned movie...STRAFE!

jimnms says...

Brainscan is a fucking awesome movie (with an equally awesome sound track). I still own it on VHS, but I haven't had a VCR in ages. Something made me think of that movie a while back and I tried to find it on DVD. I only found insanely expensive used copies and Amazon was selling expensive, licensed rips on DVD-R, so I decided to rip, I mean rent it from Netflix instead.

shagen454 said:

That's a pretty awesome trailer that reminds me of a terrible movie that was terrible even when it was released, that I should watch again, called Brainscan - featuring Eddie Furlong. If you look at it's RT page it has a 17% critic score but 61% liked it - so it's definitely one of those weird "cult" flicks. Eh, whatever - reviews suck these days just like mainstream news you can't delineate shit from em, just like this game - it's been getting pretty bad scores and pretty good scores. Me, if I wanted to play this game - I'd just go play Quake. That game is still badass to this day.

The Adpocalypse: What it Means

MilkmanDan says...

There are a lot of parallels between advertising and copyright. Buy wholeheartedly in to either, and you end up sort of failing to accept the reality of their flaws.

Advertisers think they have a big problem whenever someone circumvents their ads. They panicked when VCRs came around and allowed people to record shows and fast-forward through ads. They panicked when DVRs came out and let people digitally skip through ads. And they are panicking now, with more and more people getting fed up and putting ad-blocking software on their computers or devices.

Copyright holders think they have a big problem when someone tries to circumvent their system, too. They worried about libraries giving people free access to books; but at least a physical book is pretty much limited to one person at a time. They freaked out about cassette tapes being easily copied with a dual cassette deck. They freaked out about people sharing MP3 music over the internet. They freaked out when DVDs came out with CSS protection which was circumvented almost immediately. They continue to freak out by pushing for ever more and more drastic DRM schemes, that are generally circumvented quite rapidly.

The general theme in both advertising and copyright is escalation; a sort of arms race. The problem is that that solution doesn't actually improve things for anyone, in either case. Ads get more and more offensive and annoying, more and more people block/skip them. Copyright gets more and more locked-down, more and more people circumvent it. In both cases, as the "legitimate" side squeezes harder, it ends up making the user experience better for those who circumvent it "illegitimately". See, for example, this good old comic from The Oatmeal:
http://theoatmeal.com/comics/game_of_thrones

The web with adblock software is a massively better experience than the web without it. A pirated 1080p movie or TV show lets you skip the previews/commercials that are often unskippable on a DVD. And on and on.

This arms race doesn't have a good future. Creators and distributors must start wracking their brains to come up with whole new ideas, or at least variants of the old ones, that break that cycle and ensure that "illegitimate" users/viewers don't have a better experience than legitimate ones. I'm sure not holding my breath though.

Man Addressing Entitled Woman Who Cuts The Line

Elmo gets fired...

"The deal came in the wake of cutbacks that had affected the series in recent years, the changing viewer habits of American children in the previous ten years, and Sesame Workshop's dependence upon revenue from DVD sales."

Yup.

HBO? When did it move to HBO?

On August 13, 2015, as part of a five-year programming and development deal, Sesame Workshop announced that first-run episodes of Sesame Street would move to premium television service HBO beginning with season 46, which premiered on January 16, 2016. HBO will hold first-run rights to all newer episodes of the series, after which they will air on PBS member stations following a nine-month exclusivity window, with no charge to the stations for airing the content. The agreement also gives HBO exclusive rights to stream past and future Sesame Street episodes on HBO Go and HBO Now – assuming those rights from Amazon Video and Netflix; on August 14, Sesame Workshop announced that it would phase out its in-house subscription streaming service, Sesame Go, as a standalone service; the service will remain in operation, likely with its offerings reduced to a slate content available for free or serving as a portal for Sesame Street's website.

The deal came in the wake of cutbacks that had affected the series in recent years, the changing viewer habits of American children in the previous ten years, and Sesame Workshop's dependence upon revenue from DVD sales.
