Episode 430: Giving You A Shot Of Blu-Ray Steel

This week in physical media, Peter Sobczynski joins Erik Childress to talk up a pair of Larry McMurtry tales. Shirley MacLaine and Nicolas Cage are in two of this week’s selections and one of them together. Erik gets one of his titles from the Why-Is-This-Not-On-Blu-Ray series and Peter looks back at the time Nicolas Roeg went to Showtime with Mimi Rogers and Bryan Brown. A crowd-pleasing underdog tale gets a director’s cut in 4K as does a Billy Wilder film with Peter Graves in prison (not a Turkish one.) There is stop-motion Christmas for the kids and a stage adaptation of Miyazaki. And sometimes you are being followed whether it be by a giant truck or Ron Silver. 0:00 - Intro 0:59 - Criterion (The Last Picture Show (4K)) 8:23 - Paramount (Terms of Endearment (4K)) 20:40 - RLJE Films (Color Out of Space 4K) 23:27 - Sony (Guarding Tess, The Fog of War, Short Circuit 2, Rudy: Director's Cut (4K))           44:24 - Unearthed (Full Body massage) 48:23 - Shout!
