Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

Okay, so the question obviously is: Why am I posting this? :p
And the answer is: I recently created an ongoing thread devoted to my Favorite Movies of All Time, but in order to properly evaluate my rankings, I have to actually create a complete list to draw upon. Once upon a time, I had actually posted such a list in the blog section of the CRF2 website (Classic Rock Forums 2), but that site has just gone completely defunct, so now I have to start from scratch! Come to think of it, here is probably a much better kind of site for such a list. 🙂 So anyway, in more or less chronological order, here is a list of all the films I've got on DVD, Blu-ray and 4K. And just remember, this is a work in progress...

THE COLOR CODE:

Titles in green indicate what you might call inaugural films - or original films which end up spawning a series of sequels and prequels, which are listed in blue, or remakes, which are listed in purple. (NOTE: In the case of something like the first The Lord of the Rings trilogy or the Kill Bill duo, all the entries are conceived as being part of a greater whole, and are therefore all put in green.)

Titles in blue indicate sequels or prequels to an inaugural title, and they are listed directly after that title, resulting in a temporary break in chronology. (NOTE: In the case of the Star Trek series, the 2009-2016 titles might be thought of as remakes, in which case they would be listed separately in the "proper" chronology. But in this rather exceptional case, the presence of Leonard Nimoy as the older Spock from the "primary" timeline of the earlier films complicates the issue. In this case, I will put the year of release of the 2009 Star Trek entry in purple, as a way of denoting its re-inaugural status, but the title will be put in blue along with all the other sequels.)

Titles in purple indicate remakes to an inaugural film, but unlike the sequels and prequels, which are listed in blue, remakes are not listed immediately after the inaugural title, and thus do not break with chronology. Consider the remake a kind of re-inauguration, if you will. (NOTE: In the case of something like Red Dragon, which functions simultaneously as a remake of Manhunter and as a prequel to The Silence of the Lambs, the year of release is put in purple to denote its status as a remake of Manhunter, but the title is placed in blue to denote its status as a prequel to The Silence of the Lambs.)

Titles in red are those of films I've already put in my Favorite Movies of All Time list. That list is a work in progress, as is this one. As more movies make it onto my Favorite Films list, more items on this list will be put in red. (NOTE: If a red title happens to be an inaugural, a sequel or prequel, or remake, then the year of release will be colored accordingly.)

This post reserved for future use (#2)

I honestly have no idea how many posts I'm going to need in order to complete my list of films on DVD and Blu-ray, so just to be on the safe side I'm reserving a block of ten. ;) I figure if somebody else wants to post a comment, that's fine, but I just don't want them interrupting and cutting into the list.:D

That's a nice DVD collection. I've been trying to organize my DVD collection by sorting them alphabetically and by genres. I never thought about sorting them in chronological order, but I'm not sure that that would be any easier.

Do you use a database to organize them, or do you just catalog them manually?

I've just spent the last couple of days writing everything down on tablet paper, squeezing in two titles per line. And it took two sheets, using both sides (and part of a third)! With that in mind, you can probably understand why I decided to reserve a total of ten posts for the job! :lol: I don't really have any sort of database system as such, although perhaps I really should look into that...

Also, bear in mind that I've only just scratched the surface. I haven't even finished the front half of the first page yet! If you're still interested, keep checking on my progress regularly for the near future.

When I first started buying DVDs, I was pretty good about separating them by genre and alphabetizing them within the genres, but as my collection grew, I just started putting the new DVDs wherever I could find room for them.

I've been trying to sort them a little bit at a time, (as I can find the time to do it), but I have a lot of DVDs to sort.

I recently started using an app called DVD Library that catalogs them by scanning the barcode. It's not perfect, but it's making the job a little bit easier.

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

JUST A QUICK UPDATE:

In my listing above, I have just finished listing the contents of my Ingmar Bergman and Federico Fellini box sets from Criterion Collection, as well as virtually everything I have by Alfred Hitchcock, the six-film Marlene Dietrich / Josef von Sternberg collection from Criterion, a trio of Ingrid Bergman / Roberto Rossellini films from Criterion, as well as the complete 14-film American Film Theatre box set from 1973-1975 (with two dating from 1970). And as the Who's Pete Townshend once wrote: "There's more at the door / There's more at the door / There's more at the door / There's more at the door / There's more!" :lol:

P.S. Color me impressed with how much content a single post can hold on this website! :D

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

YET ANOTHER UPDATE:

Just made further modifications to the color code. See above for full details, but here's the short version:

Original or inaugural titles which spawn sequels, prequels, remakes, and/or franchises
Sequels and prequels
Remakes of older films
Personal favorites (work in progress)

And I just added a whole slew of new titles since the last time! ;)

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

YET ONE MORE UPDATE:

I eventually decided that I wanted to put the full release dates of each film on the list, meaning 4-digit year, 2-digit month, and 2-digit day. My primary motivation was to make it easier for me to chronologically slot each film into its appropriate place, without always having to consult Wikipedia and IMDb and re-check the release dates of each film released within a particular year all over again just to make sure! But ironically, however, it's actually making my job that much harder, because now I've got to append the month and day to each entry, which means I am consulting Wikipedia and IMDb all over again! :lol:

Oh well, no regrets. :D

Recently added entries include the Rocky series with Sylvester Stallone (which I got in a 6-disc Blu-ray set from Best Buy for a rather impressive bargain), as well as Penelope Spheeris' The Decline of Western Civilization punk rock and heavy metal doc trilogy.

And believe it or not, I'm not through yet... :eek:

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

FINISHED! (Well... more or less!)

I think it's safe to say that as of right now, I have posted the titles of every movie in my DVD / Blu-ray / 4K collection in chronological order. And it turns out that I didn't really need all those nine additional posts! I've got to say, I'm seriously impressed with the amount of information that can be contained within one single post.

But bear in mind, as of 03/22/2023, I have yet to add the month and day to every year of release. I'm still working on that. Also, I buy new movies regularly and that will expand the list.

I don't know if all this information I've shared really, truly does anything for anybody else, but it's going to come in very handy for consultation purposes when I'm building my ongoing Favorite Movies of All Time list. At least, you've got a very good idea what my tastes in cinema are. ;)

That's a mixed bag. Bullitt is of course great. I've wanted to see The Yakuza for awhile, but haven't. Have only heard terrible things about Lords of Chaos (and honestly, I wasn't that big on the book either). Have been slowly warming up to Hardcore over the years, but it's not a favorite. Desperately want to see Tar and desperately don't want to see Titus.

Pity your comment regarding Titus, because I seriously enjoy director Julie Taymor's take on William Shakespeare. That one and The Tempest would make a terrific double bill at some Shakespeare cinema festival or something. I don't really know or understand the specific nature of your (implied) objection, but I know that some people might be put off by Taymor's use of anachronistic imagery and her blending of different periods and fashions. Personally, I think her approach is highly inventive and inspired. Granted, not many filmmakers have the skills to do this effectively. Two other directors that immediately come to mind who are good with blending periods and using anachronistic imagery are Ken Russell and Derek Jarman (the latter who of course did his own version of The Tempest in 1979). Granted, those two were British guys and Taymor is an American gal, so there's as much a difference in sensibilty with her as there is between Russell and Jarman.

I generally am fine with anachronistic imagery and love Ken Russell and (sort of) Derek Jarman. Her approach is way too precious for me though.

I've no doubt Titus is considerably better than Across the Universe....but then I remember Taymor was also responsible for a U2 and Spiderman broadway play and the bile in me begins to rise again.

It's sort of a proprietary thing, because I feel like I have my own connection with the music of the Beatles - and with other bands, for that matter. I only saw Moulin Rouge once, and I don't plan on viewing it again any time soon! :p

I guess I was fortunate enough not to have seen the whole U2/Spiderman musical, although I had definitely heard about it. But knowing how easy to get bad reputations nowadays, and knowing how flaws and imperfections get blown out of proportion in the media, I'm guessing it's probably nowhere near as bad as people have said it is! :lol:

But regarding Julie Taymor's Shakespeare work, I have to unreservedly count myself as a fan.

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

Some more recent purchases...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Actually, that's only partially true. I haven't actually received my copy of Tightrope (1984) yet. But if the good people at the USPS come through, it should arrive tomorrow! And besides, this will spare me from having to make another announcement post...

I was always interested in The Getaway (1972) ever since I heard the commentary track for From Dusk Till Dawn (1996), where Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez discuss the final chapter of the original Jim Thompson novel, in which our main characters arrive at a sanctuary town in Mexico called El Ray. (This is also supposed to be the place where the Gecko Brothers are headed in Rodriguez's film.) Apparently, if you're a criminal on the run and you're trying to find sanctuary in El Ray, that place ends up being much, much worse than whatever it is you're trying to get away from - I mean, like, Dante-circle-of-Hell bad! Unfortunately, neither screen adaptation of The Getaway - the 1972 Peckinpah with McQueen and MacGraw or the 1994 Alec Baldwin / Kim Basinger remake - deals with El Ray at all, and both movies end before the El Rey chapter. But from what Tarantino has said - on the FDTD commentary and in his more recent Cinema Speculations book - it rather sounds like that little town of El Rey would be worthy of a movie in its own right!

Also, in Stephen King's non-fiction book Danse Macabre, he addressed a rumor about the end of X: The Man with the X-Ray Eyes (1963). Apparently, Ray Milland's last words were originally supposed to be "I can still see!", but apparently that was rejected as being too horrible! I just received the Blu-ray today in the mail, so I'll find out if the commentary track(s) address the issue...

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

Here's the last one I bought that I hadn't seen before. Once again, Tarantino's recent Cinema Speculations book led me to this one. In fact, he devoted an entire chapter to it! Sylvester Stallone certainly made a very confident and assured directorial debut.

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

BTW, my copy of Tightrope eventually did come in. (See my last post.) It was every bit as good a film as I remember it being when I saw it a good number of years ago.

And now here's a couple of purchases within the past few months that aren't really new to me, but for which I double-dipped in order to get the 4K or Blu-ray editions:

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

Tar is excellent. I have not seen Bubba Ho-Tep yet which I can't believe. I must have walked past it in Blockbusters a milllion times. I will defiinitely have to check out the Julie Taymor Shakespeare films as I am a big fan of both Ken Russell and Derek Jarman.

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

A couple other recent 4K Ultra HD upgrades, although they're not new viewing experiences for me...

Four from Stanley Kubrick...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

And one from Tobe Hooper...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Believe me, all of these have never looked better, especially 2001: A Space Odyssey!

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

Here's a new one for my collection! Joe is the 1970 directorial debut of John G. Avildsen, who would eventually make the first Rocky (1976) as well as The Karate Kid (1984) and Lean on Me (1989), among many others. And once again, I was primarily motivated by Quentin Tarantino's comments in his recent book Cinema Speculations. I mean, I had read and known about this movie for many years, but it's only now that I've finally seen it. Peter Boyle is alternately unnerving and funny in his performance as the title character, and Susan Sarandon is quite impressive in her screen debut. I'm not the kind to give spoilers, but the ending is a serious punch to the gut, so newcomers be prepared!

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Also, I got the 2019 Final Cut edition of Francis Ford Coppola's Apocalypse Now as part of the 6-disc 4K Ultra HD / Blu-ray set. And let me tell you, I'm impressed! This is right up there with the 4K version of 2001: A Space Odyssey, and it's never looked better! (But for the record, I still favor the full-length 2001 Redux edition.)

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

Yet another one for my collection. Read about Targets (1968) many years ago in movie guides and books about horror cinema, but I've only just seen it now, having gotten the newly released Criterion Collection edition on Blu-ray. And I am very impressed! The young Peter Bogdanovich makes his directorial debut here, and in terms of subject matter and social commentary he was way, way, waaaaaaayyy ahead of the curve with this one...

Here's my latest batch of purchases, and as you can see I'm in kind of a weird cinematic mood these days. Perhaps I'm just desensitized, and I need a dose of ultraviolent, unreconstructed, bloody, sordid, slap-in-your-face reality. (Or perhaps a kind of hyper-reality!) And I've kind of been on two parallel tracks here. Although it would be stretching things just a tad to suggest any overt parallel between the bloody Texas Chainsaw universe of eccentric cannibal clans created by Tobe Hooper and Sam Peckinpah's violently elegiac world of faded outlaws, mercenaries, losers and battered soldiers, I think there is a thematic overlap, insofar as they both deal with the clinging to some past world that's long gone, and the inability to deal with progress (technological and otherwise) and the gradual encroachment of civilization upon the old world - that is, progress and civilization as defined by politicians and big corporations. Or at least, the inability to deal with it in any kind of healthy manner!

Maybe it's because I've just turned 50, and I'm beginning to feel like a relic or fossil from some bygone era myself! I certainly can't relate to most of the music that kids these days listen to. I don't know about anyone else, but I need the sound of real drums, not these electronic clickety-clack beats that most pop music seems to be set to these days. And don't get me started on autotune! Also, I firmly remain a supporter of physical media. I've never streamed a movie, and I've never streamed an album. I like to hold the physical item in my hand. While I'm not into collecting vinyl, I do still collect CD's. And while I do like to rip them to WAV files and play them on a Hi-Res Sony MP3 Walkman, I still believe in owning the actual physical item! The same thing goes with movies. Yes, I love the advancements of 4K UHD, but once again I like to be able to hold a disc in my hand!

And like everybody else my age, I tend to be more than just a little concerned about politics! On the one hand, I would certainly define myself overall as a liberal who believes in progressive causes such as civil rights, the rights of labor unions, the reproductive rights of women, and the rights of people to love who they want to love regardless of gender, etc., etc. But I would have to define myself as an "old-school" liberal, in the sense that I unconditionally support the First Amendment and freedom of speech... regardless of whoever takes offense at someone's free speech!

Oh well, I digress! I could quite easily get into some kind of "get-off-my-lawn" rant about any old thing, but I insist on being optimistic and upbeat. As we all know, history tends to be cyclical, and social and political trends that alarm and upset people in one era tend to be made irrelevant by a compensatory (and over-compensatory) swing of the pendulum in the next era. Granted, one doesn't wish to become complacent. And sure, it seems like excess countering excess much of the time. But I think there's certainly more productive things people can do with their time than getting into shootouts in Mexico or carving up people with power tools!

(See what I did there? :lol:)

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

As you may or may not gather, the above post was meant to be a (half-improvised) blend of irreverent humor and sincerity - albeit perhaps not a seamless blend. Whatever sentiments you find disagreeable, just take with a pinch of salt.

Moving on...

I just got these two Blu-ray's today. The first one I got from Barnes & Noble this morning (only just released yesterday), and the second one I received in the mail via USPS from Amazon:

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Mind you, I already had Joseph Losey's The Servant (1963) as part of a 3-DVD Dirk Bogarde box set from Anchor Bay, which also had Basil Dearden's The Mind Benders (1963) and Losey's Accident (1967). (And I had long been curious about Accident ever since Jack Sholder cited it on a commentary track as an influence on the opening credit sequence of his 1987 sci-fi thriller The Hidden, but I digress...) But I'm really looking forward to seeing the Criterion edition's 4K digital restoration.

And 1970's The Ballad of Cable Hogue, starring Jason Robards, Stella Stevens and David Warner, was Sam Peckinpah's follow-up to his 1969 success The Wild Bunch. Not being what people expected of Peckinpah, I gather the film got a rather cool reception at the time of release. But I do believe Sam once described it as his personal favorite of all his films. I look forward to seeing it...

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

It pains me to say this, but I've got to say that as a long-time fan of the Evil Dead series, the premise is becoming just a bit worn and threadbare. I guess you could say it's beginning to figuratively wear through the scalp to a far greater extent than literally tearing through it. (Couldn't resist. Sorry!) And director Lee Cronin's solution to the problem of how to make things different - transferring the action from a cabin in the woods to a crumbling urban high-rise - only ironically underscores how repetitive things are starting to become. The fact that this time the plot involves a family - a divorced mother, her three children and their aunt who is the heroine - should theoretically make the proceedings far more emotionally involving and shocking, but I don't think Cronin's quite good enough as a writer of character to pull it off. But although Cronin fails to make his story darker, the movie itself is far more drenched in actual darkness than it really needed to be. I'm telling you, I could barely see a thing! I know at one point there's a blackout at a crucial point in the story, and so it's supposed to look dark, but for much of the time I was seriously straining my eyes. I don't know if the movie was filmed digitally or on film - honestly I can't tell anymore - but in any case the cinematography left much to be desired. I think that there's a certain level of invention and creativity, a certain aesthetic sensibility, that's been gradually disappearing in movies over time. Having said all this, I did watch the 4K version first, and haven't watched the Blu-ray yet. And I find the 4K UHD versions of most movies to be certainly less bright than the Blu-ray versions. (Although I admittedly have a relatively inexpensive Vizio TV set and have yet to upgrade.)

(Side note: Does anybody else find it slightly amusing that the director's real name is exactly the same as the anagrammatic pseudonym used by ace writer Gene L. Coon for the episodes he penned for the original Star Trek's third season in 1968-69? Or is that just me? Hey, apropos of nothing, just thought I'd mention it...)

Yes, I'll always be a huge fan of the original Evil Dead trilogy with Bruce Campbell. Heck, I even have a soft spot for Fede Álvarez's 2013 remake, which is a reasonably successful variation on Sam Raimi's classic original. (And I think the additional dramatic element of its lead female character being a recovering drug addict was far more effective than the weakly pedestrian family drama of the new Cronin film.) The Ash vs. Evil Dead series was rollicking good fun, as well (up to a point, anyway). But I think we're starting to see signs of creative fatigue setting in and there are only so many things that filmmakers can do to squeeze any more creative juice out of a premise once it's played out. And speaking of remakes...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

As you can see in my above posts, I've also started to get into the Texas Chainsaw Massacre films, having recently purchased the recent 4K release of Tobe Hooper's classic 1974 original, as well as the Vinegar Syndrome 3-disc 4K/Blu-ray release of Hooper's brilliantly OTT 1986 sequel (with Dennis Hopper). I also got the Warner Archives Blu-ray edition of Jeff Burr's Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III (featuring an early performance from Viggo Mortsensen). That one's okay, mind you, nothing as horrific or as blackly humorous as the Hooper films, although stylistically it's kind of a missing-link bridge between the Texas Chainsaw world of Hooper and Rob Zombie's later House of 1000 Corpses and The Devil's Rejects in the 2000's. And original co-creator Kim Henkel later got in on the action with Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation in 1995, which I got the Scream! Factory Collectors Edition Blu-ray of. Now, that movie is weird and screwy in ways that I'm still shaking my head in wonder at. I suppose its main selling point these days is the fact that its two leads, Renée Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey, went on to become famous Hollywood superstars. I'm not sure I even really like that movie, but it's weirdly compelling and strange and I know I'll probably come back to it again later.

And just recently... I finally caught up to Marcus Nispel's 2003 remake. About what you'd expect from a competent remake, not great but not awful either. Well-acted and well-directed, to be sure, but it still can't hope to equal the Hooper original. What finally brought me around to finally watching the remake was when I found out that the cinematographer was none other than Daniel Pearl, who did a wonderful job on the original, as well as the fact that the screenwriter was Scott Kosar, later responsible for writing Brad Anderson's The Machinist from 2004, which starred Christian Bale and Jennifer Jason Leigh. And I did kind of like R. Lee Ermey as the sheriff, who is roughly the equivalent of Jim Siedow's Cook in Hooper's films. He's pretty intimidating and scary, particularly in that scene in the van when he's forcing Jonathan Tucker's character to re-enact exactly how the female hitchhiker committed suicide earlier. The only problem - but not necessarily a big one, mind you - is that, when Ermey is playing a threating authority figure, he can't help but bring in some of the baggage from his Sergeant Hartman in 1987's Full Metal Jacket. (He even bellows "Get on your faces!" at one point.)

I haven't watched any of the later remakes, sequels and prequels (of which I believe there have been four more, or five if you count Kim Henkel's related 2012 Butcher Boys). I'm kind of leaning against watching any more, because as per my above-stated disappointment in Evil Dead Rise, I'm not really sure how else the premise can be expanded or built on in any productive way. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

And yet another three from the great Sam Peckinpah! I particularly liked the Western Ride the High Country (1962), which stars Joel McCrea and Randolph Scott in the leads, as well as Mariette Hartley and later Peckinpah regulars such as Warren Oates, R.G. Armstrong and L.Q. Jones. Junior Bonner (1972) wasn't really my cup of tea, not being into the subject of rodeo riding myself. But I thought Steve McQueen was good in the lead, and Robert Preston and Ida Lupino were both wonderful as his parents. And it's also got what is probably the wittiest bar fight sequence ever. (BTW, I had to settle for the Kino Lorber DVD, as its Blu-Ray counterpart was out of print!) And I only just watched the restored 136-minute version of Major Dundee (1965) the night before, and I've got to say it's rather impressive! Not quite on par with later triumphs like The Wild Bunch (1969) and Straw Dogs (1971), it's a rather gritty Civil War epic with Charlton Heston as the tough and implacable title character, and Richard Harris as Captain Tyreen, Dundee's former friend now turned Confederate nemesis. Heston and Harris have a wonderfully hostile onscreen chemistry, capturing emotions ranging from guarded admiration to smoldering hatred. Austrian actress Senta Berger portrays the love interest, an immigrant nurse named Teresa Santiago. Interestingly enough, she would later play an equivalent character in Peckinpah's 1977 World War II epic Cross of Iron, as the woman who takes a romantic interest in the lead character, binding and tending his physical and psychic wounds, only to ultimately lose her man as he once again feels himself drawn toward the call of battle. (Also, I got Arrow Video's 2-disc edition on Blu-ray, which features both the 136-minute Expanded Version with a completely different film score, and the original 123-minute theatrical version, with its rather cheesy original score which includes a hilariously inappropriate if rousing theme song from Mitch Miller! :lol:)

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Two new recent purchases:

Ever since hearing about the recent controversy surrounding the streaming version of The French Connection (1971) put out by Disney, which censored Popeye Doyle (Gene Hackman)'s use of a certain racial epithet, I immediately ordered the most recent physical Blu-ray edition, for fear it might go out of print one of these days! :eek:

It's not my favorite William Friedkin thriller, being rather more partial to 1980's Cruising or 1985's To Live and Die in L.A. (the new 4K UHD version of which I'll definitely get once it drops on 07/18/2023), as well as the classic The Exorcist (1973). (And let's not forget 1977's underrated Sorcerer!) But The French Connection is still a brutally kick-ass and gritty '70s action drama nonetheless. That chase scene still holds up like nobody's business. I love the drug chemist's flat, laconically delivered analysis of the shipment: "Blastoff: 180... 200: Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval... 210: U.S. Government certified... 220: Lunar trajectory, junk of the month club, sirloin steak... 230: Grade-A poison. Absolute dynamite. 89% pure junk. Best I've ever seen." And I get a kick out of Doyle (Hackman) and Buddy Russo (Roy Scheider) listening in on the wiretaps while playing cards and not being able to contain their amusement. When Sal Boca's wife Angie nags him about ordering a pizza - "And don't forget the anchovies!" - they burst into laughter, scattering their playing cards. Absolutely rock-solid entertainment.

And has anyone out there seen Noon Wine? It's definitely one of the more obscure items in Sam Peckinpah's filmography. Starring Jason Robards and Olivia de Havilland, it's a short little 51-minute TV film that Sam made for ABC Stage 67 in 1966, based on a 1937 novella by Katherine Ann Porter. And it's essential viewing for Peckinpah fans, because it's a real heartbreaker. Robards stars as a farmer with a wife and two sons, who hires a Swedish immigrant to work on his farm, and when a bounty hunter arrives to take the Swede into custody claiming that he's an escaped mental patient, the farmer kills the bounty hunter in order to protect his worker. Things only go downhill from there, culminating in a very sad ending. I won't give spoilers. Heartily recommended, and not just to fans of Peckinpah and Robards.

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

Three recent purchases:

This one is something I've seen before, but never actually owned...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

And these two I've just double-dipped for, having upgraded from DVD. (BTW, the 4K edition of To Live and Die in L.A. just came out July 18th. I've been eagerly awaiting this one ever since the Shout! Factory edition went out of print!)

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

Quite a few orders of mine came in recently! Oh happy day... :)

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

And now my Sam Peckinpah movie collection is complete! :D
As you can see, I just had to pick up the few stragglers left over. I had already seen The Osterman Weekend on a previous occasion, and I've got to say that it's very underrated. Eccentric, quirky, and intelligent, it's certainly not your run-of-the-mill spy thriller. As far as cinematic swan songs go, I'd definitely rank this alongside Hitchcock's Family Plot and Kubrick's Eyes Wide Shut. The Killer Elite sort of left me cold (notwithstanding the presence of James Caan and Robert Duvall, reunited from The Godfather), and big-screen debut The Deadly Companions definitely showed promise of greatness to come, but I think it still fell slightly short. But God help me, I actually found Convoy extremely entertaining! :p Just about as silly as you would expect a fight-the-power trucking epic based on a '70s novelty song to be, but hardly less fun for all that. It certainly holds up a lot better than it has any right to, given its messy production history.

I already had The Man Who Fell to Earth on DVD, the Criterion Collection DVD packaged in a set with Walter Tevis' original novel. But when I saw this newfangled 4K UHD/Blu-ray combo on the rack at Best Buy last Friday, I just had to double-dip! Now you've just got to love that slipcase, with the Aladdin Sane-style lightning bolt over the false eye, concealing the real yellow one underneath!

I already have all the Star Trek movies on Blu-ray. I made my umpteenth dip (after several VHS and DVD editions over the years) for the Movie Collection with the Original Series cast (1979-1991) on 4K UHD/Blu-ray just last year, and it was worth it for the fact that it's got the Director's Cuts of Robert Wise's I and Nicholas Meyer's II and VI. But alas, there are no such comparable upgrades on the new Next Generation Movie Collection. Still, the new 4K's look great!

The new 4K UHD/Blu-ray combo edition of Poltergeist also looks pretty good. And it's also got a vintage Making-Of featurette filmed during the making of the movie. But aside from that, there really isn't anything new in terms of special features. There are a couple of featurettes about the supernatural and hauntings that have been carried over from earlier editions, but that's about it. I always felt that Tobe Hooper got short shrift in terms of appreciation for his work on the movie, while Steven Spielberg got the majority of credit for the film overall. (Not that I resent Steve for that.) You'd think there would be some new interviews or a new documentary or something which would set the record straight once and for all! Alas, for the time being, it's not to be... :(

I had seen Raising Arizona a while back, and I thought it was just awesome! Took a while for me to get around to getting the Blu-ray, though. Oh well, all good things...

I only have a couple other Coen Brothers films in my collection (Miller's Crossing and No Country for Old Men). I have seen Blood Simple and Fargo, but haven't yet purchased the Blu-ray's. Oversight! :eek: To be rectified at a later date...

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

And just a few more...!

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

A real eclectic mix this time! An epic Italian-style Western... a gender-bending musical comedy... and a wonderfully weird and twisted take on H.P. Lovecraft! My idea of fun, you bet... ;)

(I had the restored 2007 DVD version of Stuart Gordon's From Beyond for many years, but I hadn't gotten the 2013 Shout! Factory Blu-ray edition before it went out of print. But this big 4K/Blu-ray package from Vinegar Syndrome renders that one virtually redundant.)

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

And now I can add yet another three Sergio Leone's to my collection with this Blu-ray 3-pack!

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Believe it or not, I hadn't even seen this classic Eastwood / Leone trilogy until recently, when I borrowed it through inter-library loan. I really like all three a lot, but my favorite is The Good, the Bad and the Ugly. Frankly, I like that one better than Once Upon a Time in the West (although that one's also great).

And as great as Clint was in that third movie, Eli Wallach absolutely steals the show as the wily Tuco Ramírez. I love how he demonstrates first-hand the perils of what the late critic Roger Ebert once referred to as "The Fallacy of the Talking Killer": "When you have to shoot, shoot. Don't talk!" :lol: As much of a weasel as this guy as, and as much as you resent the ordeal he puts Eastwood's character through, you actually kind of root for the guy!

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

One more from Sergio Leone...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

I've already seen the 229-minute version on DVD, but this two-disc Blu-ray edition has the 251-minute Extended Director's Cut as well as the earlier one. Having only just gotten this in the mail from Amazon today, I haven't seen the longer edition yet, but I'm going to start in on it tonight! :D

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

The 2017 Shout! Factory edition.

I don't know... It's definitely worth viewing at least once. What really makes Gus Van Sant's 1998 remake really stand out from the glut of reboots and retreads is the fact that it's based on the exact same screenplay by Joseph Stefano that Alfred Hitchcock's original Psycho from 1960 was based on. This actually does something which is really quite standard practice in theatre - namely, it uses the exact same text that other people have used for stage performances in ages past. As a cinematic practice, however... it kind of feels like a form of filmed cosplay with different costumes - or perhaps a Rocky Horror Picture Show shadow cast divorced or separated from the film it's emulating. Anne Heche is OK in the role of Marion Crane, but she doesn't really have the depth to make the character really interesting or her situation involving. Vince Vaughn is really quite good in the role of Norman Bates, and he doesn't necessarily make one think of Anthony Perkins - half the battle right there, I'd say. Everyone else in the cast acquits themselves admirably, and Viggo Mortensen and Julianne Moore play the roles in such a significantly different way than John Gavin and Vera Miles that they create a whole different dynamic and (deliberately awkward) chemistry.

Like I said, not great, but it is a unique cinematic experience. Worth viewing at least once, as an exercise in comparison and contrast with the original version.

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

And now I've just completed my Sergio Leone collection! (Granted, the third of these is officially credited to Tonino Valerii, but Leone was apparently involved in filming some scenes.)

These three just arrived in the mail today, so I have yet to put these in my player, and I have not actually seen them yet! So I guess my weekend is pretty much set. Here's to new cinematic experiences... :D

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

And now... after having completed my collection of Sergio Leone (or do you think I ought to get The Last Days of Pompeii just for the sake of completism? :D), I have now every Clint Eastwood Western! As you can see, I just got the The Man With No Name Trilogy on Blu-ray, as well as each individual Leone / Eastwood film on 4K from Kino Lorber. And I've had Unforgiven on Blu-ray for quite some time now...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg
https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

But now, I've just completed the collection with three films from what you might call a "transitional" period between the Eastwood / Leone trilogy (working with Ted Post, Don Siegel and John Sturges) and his later triumphs, and then the remaining three in which Eastwood's Western style is truly formed, as an actor / director within the genre:

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg
https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Note that there are arguably at least four other films within the Eastwood oeuvre which might at a stretch qualify as Westerns. But Coogan's Bluff (which I haven't seen) is a fish-out-of-water action thriller about an Arizona deputy sheriff attempting to extradite an escaped killer in New York City, Paint Your Wagon is a musical about gold prospectors during the California Gold Rush, The Beguiled (which I do have and positively love) is a Southern Gothic drama set during the American Civil War, and Bronco Billy (which I haven't seen yet but really look forward to) is a drama about a stuntman working as a cowboy in a modern-day Wild West Show. So that just leaves a nice round ten, doesn't it? You've got Sergio Leone's The Man With No Name Trilogy, Clint's own quartet of influential films which revitalized the genre for future generations... and then in between a trio of slightly lesser works in which the Italian Spaghetti Western style and Eastwood's Man With No Name persona are fitfully assimilated into the American Hollywood style. (Interestingly enough, Two Mules for Sister Sara is the only other Eastwood Western besides Leone's to feature a score by Ennio Morricone. And a really good one, too!)

I particularly love High Plains Drifter, which I got in a beautiful 4K version from Kino Lorber. It's quite a dark and twisted tale, with a weirdly beautiful setting next to Mono Lake in California. I would venture to say that this film is probably the greatest American Spaghetti Western of all time... if that makes any sort of sense! Pale Rider is also kind of a throwback to the Leone style, but the film of Leone's which it bears the most resemblance to is not any of the "Dollars" films but Once Upon a Time in the West, strangely enough. Richard Dysart's mining baron Coy LaHood is not dissimilar to Gabriele Ferzetti as the ailing railroad tycoon Morton (albeit more robust and healthier), and in the Henry Fonda role of attack dog and "obstacle-clearer" we have John Russell as Marshal Stockburn, the object of the Eastwood character's vendetta just as Fonda's Frank was the primary target of Charles Bronson's Harmonica. Add to that the fact Stockburn's men all wear those famous leather duster coats made famous in the Leone film!

I don't know what it is, but I've really started getting into Westerns lately. I never was a fan of the genre to any kind of exceptional degree, although I've always had a soft spot for certain films such as Unforgiven, Michael Cimino's (woefully underrated) Heaven's Gate and Robert Altman's snowy McCabe & Mrs. Miller. (Note that in the past I've had a slight bias toward the "New Hollywood" type of revisionist Western.) As a Quentin Tarantino fan, I have of course been a long-time fan of Django Unchained and The Hateful Eight, both of which incorporate elements of the Italian Spaghetti Western style. And of course, just before my getting into Leone, I had gotten heavily into the Sam Peckinpah filmography. I had gotten into Straw Dogs mainly because of its controversial reputation and because I'm also into horror films and thrillers. (It is of course a contemporary of other such controversial '70s films such as A Clockwork Orange, Deliverance and Last House on the Left.) Eventually I got into the rest of Peckinpah's work, starting with The Wild Bunch and working from there. (His other Westerns of course include Ride the High Country, The Ballad of Cable Hogue and Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid, while elements of the genre also figure into Straw Dogs, Junior Bonner, The Getaway, Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia.) Pretty soon, I think I'm going to explore other works in the Spaghetti Western sub-genre, starting with the work of Sergio Corbucci. I'm also curious about the comedic Trinity films with Terence Hill and Bud Spencer, already having seen the Leone-produced My Name is Nobody, which pairs Hill with Henry Fonda. I'm also really interested in seeing Lucio Fulci's Four of the Apocalypse, having already seen and enjoyed a good chunk of his work in the horror genre. Would anyone like to make any further recommendations in the Western genre (American, Italian or otherwise)? :)

I think maybe it's just because I've recently turned fifty. I guess the Western is a genre that some people just have to sort of "age into" a love and appreciation for. The thing which strikes me about Westerns is that they seem to be suspended in a kind of burnished, mythical version of that period of historical transition when the Old World gradually and inevitably makes way for the New - and that's not specifically an American thing, which is why the genre is so beloved and has such resonance to people all around the world. The old-fashioned honorable lawmen and the ruthless outlaws whom they do battle with inevitably get phased out by the coming of the railroad and modern civilization. The land becomes "tamed" and the old-school gunfighters gradually become superfluous. There is little for them to do aside from settle their old scores in duels within some threshing circle, or to go out in an honorable, quasi-suicidal blaze of glory in some massacre down in Mexico.

As a fifty-year-old fan of a certain kind of music and movies, that which I grew up with in the '70s and '80s and '90s, I'm starting to see time beginning to take its toll. We're losing more and more people from that generation all the time. I really started to feel it in 2016, when David Bowie and Prince and Lemmy Kilmister and Glenn Frey passed away. These people were unique, one of a kind, and there will be no one to replace them. The same applies to great actors and filmmakers. There will never be another like them. One thing's for sure, when Clint inevitably rides into that setting sun, it will be a truly sad day. America will mourn, and so will the world.

But I'm sure that people of every generation feel that way about the artists and performers they grew up with. You know of the word Götterdämmerung, right? In German it means "Twilight of the Gods." And you know that famous expression "It's five o'clock somewhere"? Well, every day... It's Götterdämmerung for somebody, somewhere! :lol:

Massacre Time (Lucio Fulci / 1966)
My Name Is Pecos (Maurizio Lucidi / 1966)
Bandidos (Massimo Dallamano / 1967)
And God Said to Cain... (Antonio Margheriti / 1970)

Matalo! (Kill Him) (Cesare Canevari / 1970)

Last weekend was a Spaghetti Western marathon! I just recently ordered these two box sets through Amazon, both of them released by Arrow Video. Some of these films I like more than others, in particular the classicist Bandidos and the Gothic Western revenge tale And God Said to Cain... with Klaus Kinski. But also noteworthy are future horror maestro Lucio Fulci's Massacre Time, My Name Is Pecos with Robert Woods, and the frankly uncategorizable "acid Western" Matalo!. Well worth the considerable amount of money I shelled out... :D

Django (Sergio Corbucci / 1966)
The Great Silence (Sergio Corbucci / 1968)

My voyage into the great, wide and wild Italian West of the '60s and '70s continues apace. Having finished collecting the Sergio Leone filmography, I'm moving on now to "the other Sergio" (Corbucci)!

I've borrowed a number of books through inter-library loan, including Once Upon a Time in the Italian West: The Filmgoers' Guide to Spaghetti Westerns by Howard Hughes, 10,000 Ways to Die: A Director's Take on the Spaghetti Western by Alex Cox (the director of Repo Man and Sid and Nancy), All About Sergio Leone: The Definitive Anthology (Movies, Anecdotes, Curiosities, Stories, Scripts and Interviews of the Legendary Film Director) by Oreste De Fornari and Giuseppe Tornatore; as well as several titles from Sir Christopher Frayling, including Spaghetti Westerns: Cowboys and Europeans from Karl May to Sergio Leone, Once Upon a Time in Italy: The Westerns of Sergio Leone, and the biography Sergio Leone: Something to Do with Death. Once I started in with Leone's "Dollars Trilogy" and completely fell in love with the genre, I did as much reading and research into the subject of the Italian Western as I could. Quite daunting territory to explore, especially considering that there were literally hundreds of Westerns pouring out of Italy and Europe in the '60s and '70s, but I could definitely count on Cox, Frayling and Hughes to be my guides to what was the most interesting and worthwhile!

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

You know, it's a very interesting experience watching the two Corbucci films back-to-back with both of Quentin Tarantino's Westerns, Django Unchained (2012) and The Hateful Eight (2015), as part of an all-day viewing marathon. (First the two Corbucci films, and then the two Tarantinos.) It's a bit like visiting two parallel universes, to be quite honest! Alongside Alex Cox, Tarantino is probably the most famous Corbucci disciple. Both filmmakers' work is definitely informed by the Italian Western, and certainly by the work of Leone, but I think that they're both more strongly influenced by the transgressive and often surreal nature of Corbucci's best work in the genre.

What's truly amazing about the original Django is the really weird look of the film. It was filmed on a Western town set in Italy during the cold winter months. The town set had existed for a while but was beginning to look really run-down and dilapidated. However, that was no problem whatsoever for Corbucci because that's exactly the vibe he was looking for, and in fact he had his crew make it look even grimier and muddier and even more distressed! Quite honestly, it kind of feels like some sort of strange alien planet set from a Star Trek episode, like the wild West of some parallel Earth in some other solar system. (That famous third-season episode of the Original Series Spectre of the Gun certainly comes to mind!) But that's probably only because most Western sets from classic Hollywood movies - and even beyond the classic era - just look far too neat and tidy, when many towns probably did start to feel as depressingly run-down once the gold or whatever had run out and most everybody else moved on to more prosperous parts!

Mean Streets (Martin Scorsese / 1973)

I've seen this once or twice over the years, having either rented it or borrowed it through inter-library loan. But this is the first time I've ever actually owned Martin Scorsese's landmark film in any format! :) (Specifically, it's Criterion's 4K/Blu-ray 2-disc package.)

Re: Darth Pazuzu's Movie Collection (a work in progress)

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Dirty Harry (Don Siegel / 1971)
Magnum Force (Ted Post / 1973)
The Enforcer (James Fargo / 1976)
Sudden Impact (Clint Eastwood / 1983)
The Dead Pool (Buddy Van Horn / 1988)

Believe it or not, I'd never actually owned any of these on disc before. I mean, yeah, I'd caught them on cable or rented them on occasion, and I've always liked the classic original. But now I actually own the entire set!

Don Siegel's original Dirty Harry is, of course, an oft-imitated but never-duplicated classic. Featuring a genuinely unnerving performance from the great Andrew J. Robinson as the Scorpio Killer, the original Dirty Harry is actually a lot more morally gray and unsettling than many people might give it credit for. Sudden Impact is probably the best of the sequels, brilliantly directed by Clint Eastwood himself. It's perhaps a bit shaky in getting the balance right between the action hi-jinks with Harry on one hand, and the gravity and seriousness of the Sondra Locke rape / revenge storyline on the other, but for the most part it never really steps wrong. Magnum Force, although not as good as the original or Sudden Impact, is just as crucial and essential. If Siegel's original introduces the character of Harry Callahan and shows us who he is, then Magnum Force demonstrates once and for all what Harry is not, pitting himself against a quasi-fascist group of vigilante motorcycle cops who end up getting seriously disappointed when their would-be hero refuses to join up and embrace their philosophy.

As far as the other two are concerned... The Enforcer is kind of fun with its quintessentially '70s pseudo-Symbionese Liberation Army terrorist hi-jinks, but its feminist concerns come off as a bit clunky, with Tyne Daly as Harry's latest partner, hilariously tottering after him in heels. And as far as The Dead Pool is concerned... Well, it's got a young Jim Carrey lip-synching to Guns N' Roses and an absolutely adorable little model car armed with explosives engaging in a car chase with Harry! I mean, hey! What more do you want? :D

Django Kill... If You Live, Shoot! (Giulio Questi / 1967)

I had read about this one in my research on Italian Westerns, and heard that it was pretty weird! Well... I don't know if it's the weirdest or the bloodiest Italian Western ever made, but it's certainly quite engagingly eccentric! A worthy addition to my collection, I think... :)

Oh, and this has absolutely nothing to do with Sergio Corbucci's original 1966 Django, by the way. It's just one of the many opportunistic retitling jobs of God only knows how many films, because anything with the name Django plastered onto it was perceived as being a surefire moneymaker back in the day. Heck, even a modern-day Franco Nero cop thriller was re-branded as Django the Cop or something like that in Germany! :lol: But retitling and rebranding aside, Questi's Django Kill... If You Live Shoot! is an entertainingly idiosyncratic entry in the annals of the Italian West!

JFK (Oliver Stone / 1991)
JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass (Oliver Stone / 2021)
JFK: Destiny Betrayed (Oliver Stone / 2021)

I got myself some presents for Christmas! :D

First of all, I got Savage Guns, the third volume in Arrow Video's series of Italian Western box sets (the first two being Vengeance Trails and Blood Money). The third one is probably the most eclectic of the three sets, focusing on some of the later films to be released during the late '60s/early '70s heyday of the Italian Western. I had been especially eager for the release of this particular set because it's got Lucio Fulci's The Four of the Apocalypse on Blu-ray for the first time! (That one definitely ranks among my favorite Italian Westerns, coming after Leone's "Dollars Trilogy" and Once Upon a Time in the West and Sergio Corbucci's The Great Silence.)

I also got Sergio Corbucci's The Specialists, the third entry in what is often described as Corbucci's "Mud and Blood Trilogy", the first two of course being Django and The Great Silence. Mind you, it's far from being one of Corbucci's best films, but it's definitely got one of the most protractedly weird and insanely OTT climaxes of any Western film ever made! I'd go so far as to call it The Day of the Locust of the Euro-Western genre. And speaking of which, Arrow Video also just put out a really cool Blu-ray release of John Schlesinger's The Day of the Locust! It's packed with extras and the image and sound quality are truly excellent. Truly one of my all-time favorite films, and I'm glad it's finally out on Blu-ray. (The Paramount DVD was alright, but it was very much the definition of "bare-bones.")

And kudos to Shout Factory! for putting out Oliver Stone's chilling epic historical drama JFK on 4K UHD! I have to say that it's high time. And for good measure, I also got Stone's recent documentary JFK Revisited: The Complete Collection on Blu-ray, also from the good folks at Shout! Factory. It contains both the two-hour feature-length documentary JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass as well as the expanded mini-series edition entitled JFK: Destiny Betrayed. I haven't even gotten halfway through the latter version yet!

BTW, purely as a side note...

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/..._AC_UY218_.jpg

Try watching both Sergio Corbucci's The Great Silence and Lucio Fulci's The Four of the Apocalypse back-to-back, as I just did this weekend! They make for a perfect double bill. For one thing, they happen to be two of the most bleak and melancholy Euro-Westerns of all time. Also, The Great Silence ends with a brutal massacre in Snow Hill, Utah, while The Four of the Apocalypse begins with a massacre in Salt Flat... also in Utah! So the second one kind of picks up where the first one left off. Also, as brilliant as The Great Silence is, some people might find the ending a bit of a downer, while The Four of the Apocalypse, for all its brutality and bleakness, is leavened somewhat with a bit of hopeful sentiment, so they balance each other out rather nicely.

I was always sort of interested in what these Italian Western comedies starring Terence Hill and Bud Spencer would be like, having read good things about them and also having seen the Tonino Valerii / Sergio Leone film My Name Is Nobody from 1973, which teamed up Terence Hill with Henry Fonda. I actually really liked My Name Is Nobody a lot, so I was kind of looking forward to seeing the two Trinity films, bundled together in this nice little 2-disc Blu-ray package from Hen's Tooth Video.

And the verdict? Well... They're alright, I guess. There was a good deal of amusing slapstick violence and humor, but I wasn't exactly bowled over by it. I was kind of hoping they'd be funnier than I found them to be. But maybe it's just that I'm on the wrong wavelength or something. I've never ever seen Mel Brooks' Blazing Saddles (1974) before, but I'm willing to bet that I'd laugh a lot more at that than I did at the Trinity films.

In short: I liked it, but didn't love it. Oh well, you can't win 'em all, I guess. And so my sojourn into the wilds of the Italian West continues apace...

That Renown Western collection was probably the biggest surprise for me in recent years in how I'd never heard of any of them when I started watching them all, and they were all good to great.

This is a great thread idea, i'd like to do something similar, how do you make multiple images side up like that?

I just copy the DVD/Blu-ray/4K UHD box images from Amazon, using "Copy image link," and line them up like:

[img][/img] [img][/img] [img][/img]

And if I've got five or more images, and I'm sure that they're not all going to fit on the same line, I'll just go half-and-half and put them on the line below, like:

[img][/img] [img][/img] [img][/img]
[img][/img] [img][/img] [img][/img]

Nothing more complicated than that. I hope it helps. ;)

BTW, I copy the images from the "Results" page instead of the individual entry page because they're smaller and take up less space.
