High and Low, in advance of the Spike Lee joint soon to release. Remains one of the all the greats, and just beautiful to watch.

Went into Super Dark Times (2017) blind off a recommendation for a movie that has a sudden turn of pace. It was unexpected but interesting

I just watched the most extended cut of The Good, the Bad and the Ugly projected with a true 4K videoprojector on a 106" screen and it looked awesome. That's so cool to watch those classics on a big screen. The transfer looks very healthy and even the additional parts blend in almost perfectly. There's really not a big gap in quality. There's only one thing I'm not too sure about: the opening title and the ending "The End" are off-centered. One too much on the right, the other too much on the left. Is it normal? Appart from that, the framing is a bit more generous than the MGM mastered in 4K Blu-ray and very much more generous in some shots of the captain in the bridge scene when he meets Blondie and Tuco.

I just watched The Naked Gun (2025). Well, it's a disappointment. Most of the good jokes were in the trailers, the pacing is quite boring and yet it lasts only 1h25mn. They didn't even make the classic opening credits and put the original one as part of the end credits. Frankly I expected a lot more after seeing rather good reviews. Definitely not on par with the original trilogy.

Pretty much what I expected. Glad I passed on it.
