Well, that’s kind of nice. Maybe if it does well, it’ll lead to a live action return as well. @thedigitalbits.bsky.social #Firefly

Well... I think I can safely say that I’ve never turned on the air conditioning in early March before. But here were are: 91° in SoCal today.

I think because it was only done SD resolution for that DVD release. Doing it in HD or 4K would require more resources and effort. And Cosmatos is now gone.

Just a head up: Chuck Russell’s ERASER (1996) is now starting to appear on various online retail sites for 4K Ultra HD Steelbook pre-order. Street date is TBA, but I’m told it’s likely to be 6/16 (or thereabouts). @thedigitalbits.bsky.social
If you’re a fan of TOMBSTONE, this is the best 20 minutes you’ll spend today. Stephen Lang (Ike Clanton) & Michael Biehn (Johnny Ringo) share GREAT stories on the film. Bonus points for Lang’s impression of director George P. Cosmatos. @thedigitalbits.bsky.social

I’d love to think this technique—storing archival data in glass, like digital film scans or restorations—could finally solve one of the most critical problems in film preservation. @thedigitalbits.bsky.social

All right, that made me laugh.
Quick update: This is apparently a legit BD release, BUT only a catalog re-promotion. All 3 trilogies are being re-released on Blu-ray next month ahead of May the 4th. No new remastering or extras of any kind, just a re-release of the EXISTING Blu-rays. So there you go. @thedigitalbits.bsky.social
Heads up to STAR WARS fans today: This art has been circulating online this morning, with a claim that a remastered Original Trilogy Blu-ray release is happening NEXT MONTH on April 7. It’s 100% AI-generated BS. The Death Star plans are NOT in the main computer system. @thedigitalbits.bsky.social
