Guest dndcollect Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I am finding myself enjoying taped from TV versions of Shaw films, like ones taped in the early 90's or 80's. if there are commercials that is even better. i think some would find that disgraceful since there are picture perfect versions staring at me in my library. anyone else do this or am i a freak?

Guest killer meteor Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 I kinda like the crackle of a vinyl record, or the hiss and crackle of an old film print, but something that compromises a film to the extent of a TV print - count me out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest daTOAD Posted May 17, 2007 Share Posted May 17, 2007 have double feature of Invincible One and Fist Of The White Lotus[this is how i found out my Vista version was cut] from USA's Up Allnight, commercials and all. was actually kind of nostalgic to watch. if only i had the Kung Fu Theatre showings...Confuscious says-we'll be right back.:b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest GoldenArm Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 I have early 80's vhs tapes of blackbelt theater and the commercials on there definately add to the nostalgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest tylerpistol Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 I'm kind of like that, too. For some reason those Rarescope DVDs seem more authentic because I'm sure that's how bad a lot of kung fu movies looked when they were screened. I also like to watch some old horror movies on VHS because that's how I used to watch them when they first came out. But don't get me wrong. I'll take a remastered subtitled print any day over a cruddy washed out VHS tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
