I still have to watch The Substance, Anora, and The Wild Robot. I heard good things about those movies. This year i’ve seen more anniversary films in theaters like The Crow and Alien. Studio Ghibli fest also brought back all of Miyazaki’s classics to the big screen, so that was really nice.

@raidersofthepodcast 17 күн бұрын

I HIGHLY recommend those films, as long as you have an idea of what you may be in for :) Anora was the least of the three for me, but many other people would rate it higher.

Agreed on The Order, The Substance, and Heretic, although I wasn't fully won over by Smile 2. Still need to get to Strange Darling.

Hi, I was wondering what the box set is to the left of the first woody Allen box?

@raidersofthepodcast Ай бұрын

It's the now-OOP Eric Rohmer Collection released from Arrow Academy. You can get some other Rohmer boxsets nowadays (the Comedies & Proverbs features films also included in this one), but I think most of them feature 6 films while this one had 10 features in a great presentation.

@Cooldela98 Ай бұрын

@ thank you. I’ll add it to my list of sets I’m still on the hunt for. I’ve only started collecting the last 3-4 years, but I’ve only got to arrow video last year. I found your channel looking for reviews on some of their stuff. Your collection is amazing. Keep up the good content.

@raidersofthepodcast Ай бұрын

Ooooh good luck. It's an ongoing quest. My credit card has cried many times over, and I'm always wishing for more space. I'll try to get a bit more info into some future videos, I know I'm quite loosey goosey and just busy speaking from the gut about movies and movie memories.

Adult Swim Yule Log and it’s sequel are so much fun to watch! Too Many Cooks is also frighteningly funny. Great video and amazing films this week!

Thank you. Yes, I enjoyed going back to finally listen to you talk about the Adult Swim Yule Log movie, and I think we both love it equally :)

It is a shame though that the rights prevented them from getting Silver Streak, that would have made it an absolute stacked set that even I probably would have gone out of my way to get - though I'm tempted just because of Stir Crazy (my favourite Pryor/Wilder film) 🙂

That HITCHER release looks incredible. I'm such a fan of that movie, and I'm thrilled to see it *finally* getting the love it deserves. I'm right there with you with regard to these giant box-set sized releases for a single film because I'm always struggling for shelf space, but that book of essays sounds amazing and I'm temptedddddddddd. I'm wondering if it will get a R1 release at some point. I have all three of those Iglesia films on previous releases, but that box set looks pretty fantastic. And thanks for the SCARE-A-THON shout-out!

For years, I was a lieutenant in the Podcast Listener Pronunciation Police, but once I started doing my own podcast, I found out just how easy it is to pronounce names wrong (your mind is on a dozen other things while recording, for one thing). I've since turned in my badge. I really want that Hitcher set, but might hold out for a standard release (if any), because I also have similar shelf space problems!

@raidersofthepodcast 3 ай бұрын

@@ExiledFrmContentment - ha, I am sure it infuriates many. I listen to some people who pronounce things/names a certain way that I cannot stand, even if they may just be saying things correctly while I have been wrong for all of my years. Mind you, my American co-hosts can’t even pronounce the name of another co-host properly. It’s Craig, not Cregg!!! 😂😂

@lrknox44 3 ай бұрын

Recently just got The Hitcher set myself, I freakin' love it - this has always been in my horror top ten so to have this beautiful box just made my day. Still haven't watched it yet because I've been ill over the last week but can't wait to get to it once better. The only good thing about the 2007 remake imo was Sean Bean 😅 everything else was very middling. Love the Arrow box set! 🙂

I agree with these statements regarding The Crow. Although I do love the 1994 film, if we want to be technical, it’s nothing like the comic and I believe it is what you stated about the specific connection it has to the fans. However, everyone should watch and form their own opinions and stop following the hate train. Yes, it may not be a good film but base that after actually viewing it. It can’t rain all the time. On a separate note, Empire magazine was much coveted along with one called Total DVD and they would give a disc each month with the newest trailers and movie shorts. I miss those days! 😂 Great video!
