    Rollerball... the remake

    Excellent transfer, terrible, terrible movie.

    The original, released in 1975, directed by Norman Jewison and starring Jmes Caan -- now that was a movie.

    If you feel you must see the remake, beware and rent first.

      You are correct sir! The original was an awesome piece of work and has stood the test of time very well. The remake? :roll:

          New receiver with vintage speakers sounds terrible
          by ctc
          While my budget won't allow for the high level of equipment I see discussed in this forum, I can still appreciate good quality sound and would like to buy the best that I can afford.

          I have a pair of 3-way floorstanding Marantz speakers series 50/500 with 1-3/4" tweeters, 4"...

          Longest Yard - the remake and Cursed
          by George Bellefontaine
          LONGEST YARD was okay, but I still liked the original better.

          I also watched CURSED over the weekend. Yuck. Terrible story, terrible , actually funny looking werewolf. I don't think Wes Craven knew if this one should be a comedy or a serious attempt at horror. Neither worked IMHO....

          Flight of the Phoenix- The Remake

          FYI: This is the remake to a 1965 Jimmy Stewart movie which is also available now for $10.

          Dennis Quaid is a pilot sent to Mongolia to do an evacuation. The plane crashes and the story pretty much revolves around their rescue or attempts to rescue themselves. The success of this is going...
