LOL. But where's the Dr "I'm Homeland" Strangelove poster?

And the related Guardian piece on Oliver Stone's attempt to make a doc
on Ahmadinejad is hilarious [if Stone is another Great Satan, then
Castro would be an Even Greater Satan in Mahmoud speak, presumably].
God knows [or should that be Satan Knows?] what Cheney & Co are
cooking up right now vis-a-vis Iran, which - with Afghanistan and Iraq
now totally lost - makes comparisons with Dr S still ominously
relevant.

Meanwhile, we can now watch The Shining in Blue Fairy Ray, as the
article below gushingly boasts, but I'm damned if I'm going to trip
over myself by rushing out and buying a blu-ray player just yet ...

Warner Announces Quartet of Kubrick Classics for Blu-ray, HD DVD

Kubrick fans rejoice! After a year of waiting, Warner Home Video has
finally announced the Blu-ray and HD DVD releases of a quartet of the
director's most revered classics.

On October 23, Warner will debut remastered special editions of four
Kubrick classics: '2001: A Space Odyssey,' 'A Clockwork Orange,' 'The
Shining' and 'Eyes Wide Shut.'

The releases are set to debut simultaneously on Blu-ray, HD DVD and
standard-def DVD, with each title available separately as a stand-
alone release. Currently, the studio has not indicated whether the
titles will also be bundled together as a box set collection.

Supplemental details for the four titles have also not yet been
revealed, but tech specs on the next-gen versions will include 1080p
video transfers and remixed Dolby TrueHD 5.1 audio tracks on both the
Blu-ray and HD DVD editions.

Retail price is $28.99 a piece for each Kubrick classic.

"And uh, he went and did a silly thing...." Yes, very troublesome
times with much still on the horizon.

Not running to get a PS3 either, eh? The "mad fools" at Sony added
Blu-ray, and at least another hundred bucks to the price, and the
people went, "Wii Wii Wii!!!" all the way home. To be fair, Blu-ray
offers just absolutely stunning quality if you've actually got the
gear to take advantage of it. At 1080p even things in real life begin
to look phony! Good news nevertheless...
