Cue the apparently-existent fanbase of The Core to go wild. It'll probably be tonight's Framed

Red Eye is a movie I remember thinking was quite fun at the time but maybe haven’t thought about once in the almost two decades since; kind of curious to see what I’d think now, especially given how much I like the leads

I saw it for the first time in years not too long ago. I still really enjoy the first third or so and Cillian Murphy’s performance. Craven managed some effective scares within the limitations imposed by its PG-13 rating

Even if I forget the rest of Red Eye, I'll always remember

Vanilla Sky, Clear and Present Danger, and The Firm are getting 4K releases. Listings have also been found for individual releases of the Indiana Jones films.

Clear and Present Danger is most likely the same disc from the 2018 Jack Ryan Collection release. I believe this is the last of those 5 films to get an individual release in the US.

It's also handily the best Jack Ryan film, inexplicably ranked as the worst of the original three. Is there word on the quality of this set? I don't see it mentioned on our master list

This. Always happy to see Jerry Lewis get upgraded, but this isn't even in his top ten best. It's an obvious choice for the bump, but he also has a handful of other films that aren't exactly 'unpopular'!

I'm still waiting for someone - Criterion? Arrow? Indicator? - to restore a half dozen of Lewis' films for a box set.

For what it's worth, Radiance recently asked about Lewis and Paramount said they wanted to release those films themselves

What's wrong with The Ladies Man from Umbrella, is their Blu-Ray quality lacking because it appears filling on the extras, they've got a lot? Thank you for reading.

My understanding is that it's similar to other Jerry Lewis blu-rays from Australia companies: DVD-upscale of an old scan, though maybe better than the Dean Martin ones? I believe a banned member posted screengrabs here

How convenient. Just realizing how visual nice The Ladies Man actually looks too. Thank you for reading.

I can't believe they didn't use this as an opportunity to change the cover!

I would love to see footage from the test shoot that Andrew Niccol undertook with Gary Oldman. It displeased Paramount so much that they removed him and hired Peter Weir to direct the film
