    Fantastic list, man! This title really did fit this video because there were a few in here that I didn’t even know were on 4K! One that I have from this year that I have not seen one single person talk about is, In Burges from Kino Lorber! Absolutely stunning transfer and a freaking amazing film that I think some people still haven’t even seen, which is such a shame!

    Stellar list. I’ll go out on a limb and say the reason folks aren’t talking about them as much is because some sites/reviewers do not get Vinegar Syndrome screeners, or even boutique screeners, to review. Some do but not all and if they have to go out of pocket for it they will not review it. IMO.
    I just got Doomsday 4K from Shout. it’s a 3-disc set and has a brand new 4k restoration. The only bummer is the unrated cut is only on Blu-ray but is taken from the 4K source, so that’s already better than the Universal release.
    Props on Howling II - that’s a great 4K title.

    Thanks Chase!! Hoping you'll get your home theater upgraded with atmos speakers this year! To me ( when buying 4k physical media) it makes a huge difference when the release has upraded audio with Atmos or DTS:X as well! At the worst case 5.1 DTS-HD.. a great Video remaster / upgrade is only 1/2 of the package!

    Good selections. I'll add Kickboxer has gotten no love from the internet for some reason....It's friggin incredible imo. I also think a lot of movies get overlooked unless they are 80s cult classics, sci fi, or horror in general. Air America was fantastic looking. Navy Seals was just beautiful with all the sunset colors on the aircraft carrier and in the planes. Maybe not as many people have a fondness for non horror / cheesy action flicks but some real gems came and went this year with little to no fanfare.

    I’ve picked up a few of these. I’d have to go through the video again to remember them all, but Sliver (ordered in November, still waiting for all my about 10 VS discs from then), Kindergarten Cop, and The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (I have the old TV show on DVD that’s still in plastic, I thought I’d watch the movie before or after watching the show).
    Btw, it’s a good thing I ordered the Vinegar Syndrome discs for me and not as a Christmas gift, lol. You would think Black Friday sales would get to you before Christmas. Maybe you’ll have better luck as a subscriber. I was thinking of pulling the trigger for the discounts, but I looked at the titles announced for the first couple of months and I guess I’m not a complete horror / vampire lover to go through with it. I figure I’ll just order what I like on sales and leave it there. I am interested to see how your subscription progresses. Oh, I also ordered Looking for Mr Goodbar with Sliver and they’ve done a recall/replacement deal with that (I got the email on 12/20), so that could be why all of mine have been delayed, I don’t know. Seems like they need to hire a competent distribution manager, as these could have been delivered by a slow boat from China by now!

    I'm a big fan of "The Man from Uncle." I think sadly the movie suffers from Armie Hammer and his crazy stuff. Just like Kevin Spacey movies don't get talked alot about these days with all his troubling accusations and he is in some good ones. I always try to keep the movies seperate from the actors personal lives but admittedly its always in the back of my mind when I watch. I'm very curious about the amount of 4k movies that are currently out with actors who have lets just say serious accusations made against them and does that hurt a films chance to be released on 4K going forward due to boutiques or studios not wanting to take a chance on them possibly not selling.

    To address the issues with the plastic cases, you should check the inside of the case to see if it says elite. It'll be in the lower corner. That means it's a viva elite case. Those are cheap cases. They're weak, flimsy cases and are more prone to that off gasing. Unfortunately, most of the time, that's what's used by both boutique and major studios. Replace them if you can. You should also always wipe the cases and discs with microfiber cloths. Use separate cloths between the case and disc. Smaller thread for discs is better. All microfiber. The off gasing is bad for the disc and your bluray player. Remember the lens in the player is sensitive. The higher amount of data, the more sensitive for both the disc and the player. Wipe the disc from the hole in the center to the outer edge. Do so gently. And be sure the cloth is clear of anything. The smallest spec of dust could do a lot of damage. Just FYI, I have discs I bought in the 90's that still look new. No scratches and still play because of how I take care of them. 👍

I mostly was there to play Duke Nukem along with them, I really didn't know anything about tech and I didn't care about physical media. They were all totally into that stuff and always took good care of their equipment. I'll be 43 next month and I have finally reached a point in my life where I see the value of owning my own physical media. It took major societal shifts for such a thing to finally happen. 😅 Thanks again, I'll use your tips! I'm actually going to write down what you recommended. 👍
