    I'm surprised as McLintock and island in the sky are both highly rated Duke movies. Even high and mighty is pretty good. Are you more for Duke's war/western output?

    I think McLintock is the best of that trio. The others are Ok but just not favorites of mine. Ive rarely seen the disaster movies but will watch them especially since AMC is playing nothing but horror garbage till Halloween passes.


    Oh and, the powers that be at WM--tick me off to no end sometimes. They think that horror movies are sci-fi movies and they aint. Whoever is in charge of picking movies to sell and to place them--needs to get an education on the meaning of both terms--and a hardy kick in the backside just to remind them. The only sci-fi I see and they arent even on a regular basis that are for sale there-are the Star Trek movies and sometimes--Star Wars. Thing is--everybody or almost everybody already owns those and they NEEEEEED to start putting stuff out more often like the Ray Harryhausen movies like: Earth vs the Flying Saucers--and such as well as other classics like: It Came From Another World, The Time Machine, Zone Troopers, THEM! The Creature From the Black Lagoon--The Invisible Man, The Mummy, The Wolfman, The Lost World, Sinbad, The Last Dinosaur, Starship Invasions, The Land That Time Forgot, The People That Time Forgot, Day the Earth Stood Still, Frankenstein, Dracula (yup--I know those can be classified as early horror--but horror they aint--at least not by todays sick standards.


    I guess put my Duke favorites this way---I love most of his War and Western--but cant stand the love stuff or something like his Detective movies. Harry Callaghan he aint--Davy Crockett and Sgt. Stryker--he is ;-))


    PS, THIS WILL irritate many here to say that--I dont care much for: The Quiet Man and Shepard of the Hills--but I will still watch them.


    Gimme Stagecoach, Allegheny Uprising, Hondo, Sand of Iwo Jima, Back To Bataan, Jet Pilot, etc any day.

    It wouldn't be fair me being the only one 'accidentally' ordering films!:wink_smile:

  • Bought the Blu-ray version of The Amazing Spider Man. Thought it was a pretty darn good movie. Little different than the ones from a few years ago, but still well done.


    About a week ago, bought the Blu-rays of Goldfinger and Thunderball. Both look stunning in the Blu-ray format. Gonna have to get more.

  • Criterion blues of "Stagecoach", "Paths of Glory" and "The Seven Samurai". "Stagecoach is the only one of I've watched so far. The opening titles were a bit ragged and looked pretty worn but then the film proper started and the movie has never looked better. A real improvement over any version I've ever seen.

    We deal in lead, friend.

  • Nice selection.
    Moonrise kingdom is a geat little film.
    I'm biased as I love Wes Anderson, Rushmore is still my fave!:wink_smile:

  • Wow, Paula, that's an eclectic batch of titles. When you get around to viewing Von Ryan would you mind posting what you thought of the transfer? I heard it wasn't the best so I'm on the fence about buying it.
