    If you haven’t watched any of the Timothy Dalton Bond movies, highly recommend The Living Daylights. My personal favorite of his two.

      100%, he’s of the right age and fitted into the two Bond movies well. I’d say he’s my 2nd favourite, with Sean Connery being no.1.

      Thanks Steve! Appreciate that. And yep, that's why I watch other physical media channels myself... to get ideas for titles I'd either forgotten about or that I'm unaware of. In fact, I think there are probably a couple titles on this list that I pre-ordered because I found out about them from other channels. Thanks for watching brother!

    Hey Fuzz - you have really peaked my interest into “Run Lola Run.” I must check this one out now. I was already interested when I first saw it, but now hearing you mention the film I simply must check it out…

    • @TheOriginalFuzz
      @TheOriginalFuzz  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi Ken! Yes you definitely should check it out. Even though I'm still kind of on the fence about it, it's definitely the kind of film that will give you a little bit to chew on and think about. Knowing your interest in things like underlying perspective, subtext, etc., I think it's possible you may really appreciate this one. It's a pretty minimalist film, but it definitely challenges the senses a little bit and has some intriguing things in it. Great to hear from you my friend! Thanks for watching and chiming in.

    I have the Drive second sight version but the steel is literally art, beautiful to look at and I'm glad it shot up in your estimation! Apologies but I can't resist giving a recommendation.. 'Altered Carbon' season 1 (which is a complete story) on Netflix. Season 2 tanked the series in my view but season 1, the science fiction detective arc, was very impressive. It's crack/cocaine for those who enjoy a brooding sigma loner protagonist.

    Thanks for the shout out! Yea, you got my name right! And Happy Anniversary! I watched all the James Bond films in the past year or two. Timothy Dalton is my favorite Bond, with License to Kill as my favorite. I got all the blu rays except the craig era (I do have Casino Royale though). Vampire's Kiss is one of my favorite Nick Cage movie, but that's a much older one. I saw Run Lola Run a few months ago and really enjoyed it. It's like video game do overs in a movie. Now I know you probably addressed this in a previous video (and I'll be looking it up right after I finish this one), but I heard some negative comments on the Aliens 4K restoration. Do you personally recommend getting the Aliens 4K? Or is the Blu ray just as good? Thanks!

    • @TheOriginalFuzz
      @TheOriginalFuzz  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thanks so much Shuxy! Great to see you. Well first off, yes I absolutely recommend the Aliens 4K. It does have some grain reduction, but I think the detail is amazing and it's the best the film has ever looked on home media. But it does have a bit more of a modern look to it... it's not as gritty looking as the blu-ray, and some people hate that about the 4K. But I embrace it personally. Might be a little different than what people are used to, because it has a cleaner look on 4K. But I thought it was a fun way to experience the film, and it looks amazing from my pov. And it's how Cameron himself wanted it to look. So feel free to take a look at my Cameron 4K Takeaways video when you get the chance... I went into a lot more detail re: my views on the Aliens, Abyss and True Lies 4K releases. Here's the link: th-cam.com/video/-Ye8bvzqOM4/w-d-xo.html
      I will definitely check out Vampire's Kiss... I've heard of it, but I don't think I've ever seen it. Also, I think you're like the third person I've heard now here in comments mention that they like the Timothy Dalton Bond films. I'll have to give them a watch at some point... I've been a little resistant, just because I've been locked into the other main actors (Moore, Brosnan Connery and Craig). But I probably should give those a watch before I do my Bond list video. So just out of curiosity, why is Dalton your favorite Bond? What do you like about him?
      Thanks for watching and, of course, for chiming in!

      @@TheOriginalFuzz Thanks for linking the video! I checked it out and got your in depth take on the Aliens 4K. I think I just need to get it and then judge it for myself, but I’m sure I’ll end up liking the 4K anyway.
      As for Dalton, I’d say he’s a bit more like Brosnan. I find Dalton’s Bond to be a bit more grounded and serious, but still maintains a suave demeanor, and definitely has liners and moments of levity. I heard he’s the most book accurate portrayal of Bond (although I can’t personally confirm that). He just hits all the sweet spots for me. I know my high opinion of Dalton is definitely in the minority, and I can’t guarantee you’ll like him too much, as I know Moore is your favorite, and he’s certainly very different from Dalton. But either way, Dalton only has 2 movies in the James Bond franchise, so it’s not like it’ll be a slog to get through (hopefully 😆). But if you are going to just watch one, I personally recommend License to Kill over The Living Daylights.

    • @TheOriginalFuzz
      @TheOriginalFuzz  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah I've heard the same things about Dalton... that his portrayal was a little closer to what Ian Fleming had in mind with the books. I've never read the books either, so I wouldn't know. But I can appreciate a more grounded and serious Bond... that's actually what I initially liked about Daniel Craig. I think he's more serious and grounded too, and I've appreciated his run of Bond films for that reason (with the exception of No Time to Die -- which was a total turd in my view).
      I'm thinking I might pick up these Dalton films now and check 'em out before I make my Bond list video... then I can let everyone know what I thought of them lol.

    Hey Fuzz… great video so far, still watching 😆. I found Redemption to be a pretty meh Stathem title. It sits in the Transporter 3 tier for me. The other ones you got (Safe and Homefront) I liked significantly more. A Nic Cage flick I like to recommend that doesn’t get talked about much is Frozen Ground. I really liked one and put it up with some of his best stuff personally.

    • @TheOriginalFuzz

    Drive isn’t just pretty new packaging, Sony also did their own Atmos mix for it. I own both the Second Sight and Sony 4K, and the difference was noticeable to me. After watching the Sony I did some A/B testing to confirm what I thought I heard, and dialogue clarity and LFE were both improved on the Sony mix. I love Second Sight and it’s still a great release, but nice job Sony!

    • @TheOriginalFuzz

But I've been thinking I may eventually get an Atmos setup, so it's good to know I made the right choice in that regard for when that day comes lol. I really appreciate you sharing this info, as I'm sure others reading who may have Atmos systems can benefit from this. I had no idea... I just assumed the Sony release had the same audio as the Second Sight release. Thanks for watching and commenting!

      I will definitely check out the Dalton Bond films at some point. I've heard mixed things... some people really like them, and some don't. So I'll have to watch 'em and decide for myself. I've heard some people suggest the Dalton films were a little closer to Ian Fleming's original vision for the character, so I do find that potentially intriguing. I'll check out the Punisher too on the Dolph front. Thanks for the tip, and thanks for watching and weighing in!

    Hey, Fuzz. What do you think of people who hate film grain and studios who try to get rid of it through digital noise reduction (DNR)? I really like film grain and think it gives the movies character. You may have spoken about this before, not sure. I am new here.

    • @TheOriginalFuzz
      @TheOriginalFuzz  หลายเดือนก่อน

      I'm pretty flexible when it comes to film grain and restorations. I certainly don't mind film grain myself, so I'm definitely not a grain hater. But at the same time, I'm also cool with a little bit of grain management and grain reduction being applied, as long as it doesn't sacrifice the detail or create a situation where all the characters look waxy or the image looks off or weird. For example, I thought the James Cameron 4K releases looked awesome... I didn't have a problem with how those restorations were approached. But I know some people didn't like that the grain was reduced for those releases. I can understand some people not liking images where the grain is especially present... but at the same time, I do think people should have realistic expectations whenever dealing with older movies shot on film (which will always have some grain). Thanks for watching and commenting! Appreciate it.

  • @modestyblaise4167

    I can’t suggest any recent Nicolas Cage films but you need to check out Rumble Fish from 1983, if you haven’t already. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, it features some great performances by Micky Rourke, Dennis Hopper, Diane Lane, and Matt Dillon, alongside Nicolas Cage. It’s not on 4K but it got a new 4K transfer on Blu-ray and looks fabulous.
    Thanks for the heads up on Run Lola Run, it’s one of my husband’s favourites from the time and you’re right, the other films in that expensive set aren’t great. He says you need to leave it for a while and give it a second viewing when you’re in the right mood.
    Nice to see Second Sight films reaching your side of the pond. You’re not wrong about those chunky boxes, they’re lavish but very expensive for us too. Arrow limited addition, on the other hand, are great value. Both Heathers and Silence of the Lambs on 4K look wonderful, unlike the Kino 4K release that is problematic to say the least. Great picks by your wife and you should feature more of her choices in future videos.
    Have a great weekend.

    • @TheOriginalFuzz
      @TheOriginalFuzz  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yeah I will continue to feature any of my wife's picks in future videos... although she doesn't really get that many titles very often. She's more into the convenience of streaming and is not into physical media like I am. But she does like having certain favorite titles/staples on physical media, just for future-proofing purposes. But the passion for collecting is more my thing than hers.
      Re: Run Lola Run, I could see myself maybe warming up to it more upon rewatch. I've had that happen before with other films that are a little more experimental and artsy like this. And good to know I made the right choice on Silence of the Lambs. I didn't know anything about the Kino release.

    4k which had a poor transfer.

    • @TheOriginalFuzz
      @TheOriginalFuzz  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      While I haven't seen it first-hand, I suspect the issues with the Scream Factory release have more to do with how the film was made than the transfer or restoration. From what I understand (from reviews I've read), there are a lot of problems at the source, and there's only so much that can be done with this film. So I wouldn't expect the 101 Films release to be much different/better. My guess is it will likely be sourced from the same 4K scan of the original 35 mm camera negatives as the SF release. For example, I know the director used a lot of diffusion and smoke in that film, which is going to give the image a much softer appearance. There's not much that can really be done about that, because that diffusion is baked into the source. Also, Sword and Sorcerer never even got a blu-ray release, so I'm assuming what we got with Scream Factory is probably the best this particular film will ever look, just due to the way the film was made.

I'll be going into more detail about all that when I make my Bond video (hopefully within the next couple weeks or so, if I can get through re-watching all the Bond films I want to before I finalize my list).

      Right on. I know that Bond 50 set you're talking about.. my dad has the same one. Sounds like you got a good deal on it. Up until about the time Skyfall came out, I had kind of drifted away from Bond films for a good chunk of my adult life, but then I got back into them after seeing Skyfall (which, at the time, was the first Bond film I had seen in many years). Like you, I used to watch earlier Bond films with my dad in the theater. For me, it was the Roger Moore films (notably Moonraker, For Your Eyes Only and the Spy Who Loved Me), since that's when I was coming of age. But as I got older, I moved away from Bond films -- pretty much until Daniel Craig came along. I absolutely loved Skyfall. But I'll admit, the main thing I don't really like about the Craig films is the lack of gadgets. The Brosnan movies were wonderful for gadget lovers. But I do like the more modern action of the Craig films. The only Craig film I really didn't like was No Time to Die. I think that one had some real problems and didn't serve the franchise well. Thanks for watching and chiming in!

In the words of Ben affleck from jay and silent bob, “Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms” lol it’s a cheesy but fun film. Honestly it’s hard to describe but it’s like a mixture of the blob, It and a hint of The Crazies. If you don’t like it I won’t hold it against ya 🤪. I do have the second sight 4K of drive already however that steelbook is beautiful lol. Makes me wanna double dip even though I shouldn’t haha.

I have a feeling I will appreciate that film more over time (although I did find it entertaining). And yeah, that Twister 4K is bangin! I've watched it a couple times now since picking it up. Great stuff. And even the softness of the CGI tornados (just due to the age of the effects) didn't really seem all that jarring on 4K. The reduced source resolution of the CGI didn't seem to hurt the tornados too much on 4K, because tornados are kind of rough, cloudy, and dusty- looking anyway. So I feel like the softness of the "dated" CGI (for lack of a better term) didn't really impact the 4K transfer negatively by much at all. The CGI almost kind of still holds up a little bit, precisely because it's for tornados mostly. But it's cool that so much of the film is practical effects, that it really pops on 4K. I think the director's relatively limited use of CGI in Twister was pretty smart for this reason. Great to hear from you Jorden! Thanks for watching and dropping a note.

      @@TheOriginalFuzz of course always looking forward to your videos. I couldn’t agree more about the cgi from twister, it really did well with this transfer. I know I’m gonna sound a little prudish here but it was made when I feel directors put a lot of care in their art. They really adhered to the saying less is more, more is less. I’m glad you found Phantoms entertaining at least. I will say the book has and explains a lot more. But the movie also came out during the Scream movie era so they were really trying to appease to the teenage youth at its release. Still gotta find it amazing that the same man who played in Lawrence of Arabia starred in it. If you get a chance watch Jay and Silent bob strike back, theirs a lot of jokes on it even by the actors themselves.

    I am wondering if I got a bad disc of Twister. Everyone talks about it being a top-10 4K. But I was disappointed with it. Some dark scenes were too dark and many details were lost where those same scenes were better on the bluray.

    • @TheOriginalFuzz
      @TheOriginalFuzz  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I doubt it's the disc in this case. I mean, I didn't really notice any issues like that (tho admittedly, I didn't really do a side-by-side comparison -- but I had watched the blu-ray recently, prior to receiving the 4K). Although there definitely are some darker scenes in Twister, and the 4K format does tend to provide a slightly darker image overall (relative to blu-ray). It might just be a combination of factors -- the way that particular film looks, and how it is interacting with the 4K format and the image settings you're using. Personally, I've found that tweaking my brightness/contrast settings a bit in my 4K player (or changing the environment setting on the HDR Optimizer, in the case of my Panasonic UB820 player) tends to work best for me when viewing 4K titles overall. I tend to like a little brighter image in general... though I'm fully aware that the "experts" would flame me and suggest I'm doing it all "wrong." LMAO!🤣😉 But if anything, I usually notice more details in the darker areas of a film like Twister on 4K because of the HDR. So you might want to try boosting the brightness and contrast a bit on your player or TV, to see if you get a result that works a little better for you. It's not exactly a pro tip... I don't personally get into all this "professional calibration" crap. I just tweak the image settings on my TV and/or players until I get a result that I like. So I'm wondering if maybe that might help on your end as well.

      @@TheOriginalFuzz I have messed with brightness & contrast once in while. It has had a good setting for long time now. I notice if I turn it up much more, the black bars start looking washed so I know it's too much. This is not a regular problem with most 4Ks. I've only come across a couple that way. The other movie is the newest Indiana Jones. The entire opening chase sequence was too dark and I could not make out many things. But rest of film looked fine and better than BD. Only that scen looked better on BD. Another is Ungentlemanlly Warfare (or whatever its called), had a scene near end that was really dark as well. Twister looked great except a couple scenes. One being when they hunker down inside the pit in the garage. I know some people might say I am whiny and should have an OLED to get the most out of 4K. I say, a person should not have to spend tons of money for high-end equipment to get good quality. What's the point of 4K if the average person cannot see perfection? Like I said, it's not a common problem. Hell, the Friday 13th 4K (which everyone else complained about being too dark), looked fine on my setup.

    @MrEdWeirdoShow 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    Great new stuff, Fuzz ... but although the Twister blu-ray is still fine, the 4K of it (which you mention around the 14m mark) is a gold-plated turd. It refuses to run in most players (apparently yours is good), and the studio ignores our email complaints about it (including mine). Even a couple TH-cam physical media boosters have chosen to keep this huge problem on the down-low. Ironic that it's a disaster flick, and their 4K disc is a total disaster!

    • @TheOriginalFuzz
      @TheOriginalFuzz  2 หลายเดือนก่อน

      This is actually the first I've heard of anyone having problems with Twister on 4K. I've watched mine a couple times now with no issues of any kind. It sounds like you just got a bad disc (which sometimes happens with 4K in general... I don't think this is something that's specific to only Twister). I would just return the disc to the place you bought it from, rather than trying to contact the studio directly. That's one thing I like about Amazon's return policy... they're very flexible about returning and replacing bad discs. It doesn't happen often for me, but I've had a few 4K discs in the past that I've had to return... and the replacements worked fine. But based on what you've said here, I'm not convinced yet this is a widespread problem with this title. If physical media channels aren't talking about this problem, it's probably because there isn't really a problem in most cases. I don't think there's anything nefarious going on... most physical media channels I watch tend to expose these kind of problems when they occur.
      Thanks for watching!
