I mean, not really. This story and then the inevitable clarification have been going in a loop for several cycles now. No one buys BD-Rs (and never really have), but plenty of people still buy Blu-ray and 4K discs, just going by the huge volume of new titles constantly being released.
They’ve done some good releases. They put out some truly incredible He-Man and the Masters of the Universe DVD sets at one point that were full of commentaries, special features, animated menus, and even menu Easter eggs. But yeah, most of their stuff is bare bones. “Mill” is right there in the name.
I unfortunately bought my set of The Rockford Files from Amazon, and you should never buy box sets from that company because they’ll just end up crushed due to no-shits-given packing. I didn’t notice the damage within the return window, of course. I’m just going to buy a new one from Amazon and return the other (still sealed) one for a refund.
Yeah, I’m not going to lose sleep over it. Probably would’ve been better to have branching and a disclaimer, though.
Around Christmas I watched Holiday Inn for the first time, thinking it would be a nice movie starring Bing Crosby and Fred Astaire. It began with an offensive content disclaimer, and I thought, oh, there’s probably some unflattering stereotypes. Then the full-on blackface musical number that included an offensive slur basically sucker punched me in the face. Really took me out of the movie.
I think it would be pretty hard to excise that one without losing a story beat, but these two Crocodile Dundee scenes are just dumb gags that contribute nothing.
