Part of a Home Theater Forum discussion, including comments from restorer Robert Harris and film historian Adrian Turner:

Just as interesting, from my perspective, is that the film's most famous "missing" scene, Allenby's "seduction" of Lawrence to returning to the desert, has apparently been restored and will be included on the BRD as a special feature.

Suffice to say I'm extremely excited. I will bend arms, break legs, possibly even commit crimes to see Lawrence in theaters.

For those interested, Rave Motion Pictures in West Carrollton and Huber Heights will both be screening the re-release of this masterpiece on October, 4th at 1:00pm/7:00pm.

Just saw Trouble with the Curve. Kind of predictable, but not bad. Clint being himself basically. He plays a pretty good grumpy old man.

Trouble with the Curve was overly Hollywood cliche. It's the worst effort I've seen from Eastwood in a long time.

Now Looper, on the other hand, is a perfect reminder of what Hollywood is capable of when it gets something right...

I'm glad you posted this. We don't get to many movies any more. Going to Looper tonight, was hoping it would be worth it.

Do it. It's one of the best movies of the year.

Any cinephile who loves the lean functioning classics like Assault on Precinct 13 and Escape from New York or the hard hitting ultra-violence of RoboCop owes it to themselves to see Dredd 3D.

The Braden Looper biopic was a lot different than I expected.

I might have missed it, but I haven't heard anyone mention that this the third movie by my count (12 Monkeys, The Kid) in which Bruce Willis has encountered his younger self.

I'm so angry that it is only showing on Thursday. I have prior commitments....

OldRightHander · 10-04-2012, 07:11 PM

I was thinking of venturing out this evening and I guess I'll take the recommendations and see Looper. If I don't like it, I'm holding you all responsible. I've been going a bit more often with Carren off visiting family in Kenya for a couple weeks. She's not a movie person. We've been once in the 11 years we've been married.

Saw Looper and it was amazing. One of the best movies of the year

I might be riding high after just seeing it, but I was surprised at how good it was. There have been a lot of bad movies released in the past couple months, but Looper was really good.

If you had seen Brick you wouldn't have been surprised. And if you haven't seen Brick... why not?
