I’ve been thumbing over my disc book collection to discard what movies I have that I know I won’t ever watch. And I’m finding all of these editions to them. Like 25th Anniversary, Ultimate Edition, Director’s Cut .etc .etc

And I’ve always wanted to see someone like some movie buff, detail the differences between a movie when it was originally released on tape, on disc or whatever. Then describing what the differences are in later releases from the original release.

I know some channels on YouTube do this but they’re always like side-mentions or one movie will be covered. There’s no one dedicated channel out there that does this and I’m not much of a movie buff to try myself.

I would totally be watching that channel a lot if it was ever made.

    Possibly off topic, but one thing I’d like to see is people upgrading the bad special effects of old movies.

    “Flash Gordon” has an incredible score from Queen, hilarious dialog, and cheesy effects.

    “The White Buffalo” is a great Western about Wild Bill Hickock and Crazy Horse. The actual monster looks like it was made out of cardboard

      Yeah but all that really does is piss off the purists. Like, it has been tried with Star Wars and to this day, people still bitch about the change in some effects.

        Happy New Year.

        Here’s a random suggestion. The movie ‘Sorcerer’ died at the box office because it came out the same weekend as ‘Star Wars.’ Pity, because it’s a great suspense movie with plenty of action and a million twists.

        Here’s a sample.

        Never heard of them. I’ll look it up. Thank you

        edit = so, they do bits and pieces, but not the full movies.

        Thanks again
