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

<p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-size: 11.0pt; font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; color: black; mso-color-alt: windowtext; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;"> 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.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: black; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> 0:00 - Intro</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #1d2228; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> 0:59 - Criterion (The Last Picture Show (4K))</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #1d2228; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> 8:23 - Paramount (Terms of Endearment (4K))</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #1d2228; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> 20:40 - RLJE Films (Color Out of Space 4K)</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;"><span style= "font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; color: #1d2228; mso-fareast-language: EN-US;"> 23:27 - Sony (Guarding Tess, The Fog of War, Short Circuit 2
