Who Are You, Polly Maggoo?: The Delirious Fictions Of William Klein: Eclipse Series 9: The Criterion Collection - (1966) - B+

Reason for score -- very experimental and out there...

Reason for score -- very poignant movie....interesting how closely it describes the current political situation of the US...
 
The Model Couple: The Delirious Fictions Of William Klein: Eclipse Series 9: The Criterion Collection - (1977) - B+

Reason for score -- very interesting story / message...out there though....WAY out there

watched to finish up the movie marathon weekend....

I Am Curious - Yellow:  I Am Curious...:  The Criterion Collection - (1967) - C+

Reason for score -- too experimental and unconnected for me. 

[tholly]

watched to finish up my criterion queue list....

I Am Curious - Blue: I Am Curious...: The Criterion Collection - (1968) - C+

Reason for score -- too experimental and unconnected for me....for the most part I love criterion movies, but this set was just beyond me.....

Indy 4 was not bad. Considering the old ones get A+, this one gets a solid B.

The alien stuff just didn't fit in.  This movie seemed like an after-thought (which I guess it was.)  Didn't seem to match up with the rest of the series.

Of course, but it still was an okay movie.

I just watched Hancock. Whoa. It was awesome. A-/A

watching now....

Ocean's Eleven: Ocean's Trilogy Collectible Giftset (HD-DVD) - (2001) - A-

Reason for score -- easily the best of the series...but, wow, was this a terrible HD transfer...the movie isn't that old, it should have been a lot cleaner than it was....

[Sirgin]

but, wow, was this a terrible HD transfer...the movie isn't that old, it should have been a lot cleaner than it was....

Maybe because it was a HD-DVD...

No, I don't do that fanboy thing. I have HD-DVDs and Blu-Rays and both formats have movies that look stunning and both have movies that look like shit. This just happened to be a shitty transfer. It would look equally as bad on BR. It looks like the source material used was in bad shape.

I was kidding, obviously.

EDIT: How can you (as a studio) dare to put out a bad looking movie when people know how good the format can look?

[tholly]

Sorry, missed the kidding aspect. But, some people are so fanboyish one way or the other it's crazy. They are basically the same product. But yea, I can't believe some high def stuff that gets pushed out. Species on bluray is another example. I think the VHS probably looked better.

It really was. It was definitely one of the most unique movies i have seen in a long time.

[two_scoop_steve]

today i watched the new episodes of:

true blood
dexter
californication

Lol, I find it really strange...don't these companies realise putting out crap is hurting there own name more than it is saving them money by doing an easy update?
