Extinction Studies<p>Well, A Dark Foe was a bit depraved for my taste. Didn't finish it. Day of the Jackal is slow but it's interesting.</p><p><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/film" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>film</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/physicalmedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>physicalmedia</span></a></p>
Extinction Studies<p>Not that anyone's listening, or reading, or clicking, but if you click through the CW, you can see I'm planning to watch three films tonight.</p><p>1. A Dark Foe (2020), directed by Maria Gabriella Cardenas, starring Oscar Cardenas, Kenzie Dalton, Graham Greene and Selma Blair. It's an independent thriller.</p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Dark_Foe" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Dark_F</span><span class="invisible">oe</span></a></p><p>2. The Day of the Jackal (1973) directed by Fred Zinneman, starring Edward Fox and Michael Lonsdale. Also a thriller, about an asssassination attempt.</p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Day_of_the_Jackal_(film)" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Day_</span><span class="invisible">of_the_Jackal_(film)</span></a></p><p>3. Dead Man Walking (1995), directed by Tim Robbins, starring Susan Sarandon and Sean Penn, with a fantastic supporting cast. I remember this one well because I was working for an anti-death penalty group when it came out so it was very on point. It's based on real people, folks.</p><p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Man_Walking_(film)" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_Man</span><span class="invisible">_Walking_(film)</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/film" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>film</span></a> <a href="https://hcommons.social/tags/physicalmedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>physicalmedia</span></a></p>

Extinction Studies

I'm watching The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (2015), directed by Guy Ritchie, starring Henry Cavill, Armie Hammer, Alicia Vikander, Elizabeth Debicki, and Hugh Grant. I saw this in the theater when it came out and didn't much like it. But I'm giving it another go despite everything. The studio spent too much promoting it so it lost money.

💿 🎬 John 🎬 💿

Today, I visited 4 charity shops near to my mother-in-law. Really happy with my finds.

Wonder Woman 4K (£2) 'aving that!

I saw a normal-sized DVD case of The Prisoner, a show I haven't seen since the 90s.

I thought it was the old thing of a couple of episodes with a magazine every month because of the thin case. Wrong. Complete series on 6 DVDs, £1. Lot of extras, too.

Finally, massive tome of a book, John Landis — Monsters in the Movies (£4). It's over an inch thick!

😊

A close-up shot depicts the 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Digital version of the movie “Wonder Woman” on a wooden surface. The cover features Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, adorned in her iconic armour and headdress. In the background, a golden, stylized “W” is visible above the movie title, set against a dark blue backdrop with the DC logo in the top left. The text “4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Digital” is printed in silver across the top. A sticker in the upper right corner displays the price of £2.00. The cover also showcases HDR (High Dynamic Range) technology. A quote from The Sun newspaper, “EXHILARATING AND AWESOME,” is printed near the bottom. Below Wonder Woman's image, a logo advertises the Justice League movie, which was released in theatres in November 2017. The age rating of “12” is marked on the left and right bottom angles.

A high-angle, full studio shot shows “The Prisoner: The Complete Series” DVD box set in its entirety, open atop a wooden surface. The shot is well-lit and focuses on the visual details of the box set and its contents. At the top-left, a shrink-wrapped DVD case lies flat, displaying the cover art of “The Prisoner.” The artwork includes dramatic imagery and a title overlay. To its right and slightly behind, the back of the DVD case is visible, featuring a summary of the series, special features, and production details. Behind the two DVD cases, are the four black DVDs in their clear plastic cases. The disks are labelled “1,” “2,” “3,” and “4” in distinct, white numerals. Each disc includes the “network,” “The Prisoner,” “DVD Video,” “The Complete Series,” ITV logo, and PG rating. The DVDs appear to be arranged in an organized manner, showcasing the full set as a collectible item. The wooden surface and lighting highlight the visual details and text on the DVDs and cases.
ALT
A slightly tilted close-up shot features the book “Monsters in the Movies” by John Landis sitting on a surface and partially on a person's lap or clothing. The book's cover is largely black and white, featuring a menacing monster face with striking orange eyes and large, sharp teeth. The title, “MONSTERS IN THE MOVIES,” is printed in a bold, white font, dominating the central part of the cover, with “John Landis” printed above it. Below the monster's teeth, the subtitle reads, “100 Years of Cinematic Nightmares,” suggesting a comprehensive exploration of horror films.
