Ghost Dad is a better film than Leonard Part 6 but not as good a film as Meteor Man. And thus begins and ends my Bill Cosby filmography experience.

Ghost Dad is slightly better than Leonard Part 6, which unfortunately makes it––rather than weird and horrifying and sort of so-bad-it's-good––simply really damn bad. Mother, Jugs & Speed 4 Life.

How it didn't launch Cosby-Keitel as the next Martin-Lewis is beyond me.
But no, seriously, the guy is pretty damn good in Hickey & Boggs.

I got one in August. I just paypal'd
[email protected] with a note as to which I wanted. $5/each for the first 2, $2.50 for every additional.

I just got my "400 Blows" blu-ray and it's the cardboard version.
Could anyone be kind enough to order a plastic case for me? I can't order them in Canada. I would pay all necessary expenses.

Should repeat this in 10 or 15 more threads. Why just 2?
Also, ridiculous. CC not always perfect by the CritForum meme of hyper-criticize and overreact is tired. Yawn x4!

LQ beat me to it. The Topsy-Turvy and Mikado covers are fabulous!

I'm absolutely in love with The Mikado cover. I've never seen it but am immediately intrigued. Love Topsy-Turvy too. Really strong work!

I think the G&S covers are more appealing to me than the movies themselves are.

At least Topsy-Turvy didn't print all the Wacky C and the year upside down on the right side ala Alphaville.

Interesting touch : look for the subtle difference between Topsy-Turvy's DVD an Blu-Ray artwork!
Good cover on The Mikado.

I should be bitching about how bad that Milk cover is, but I'm too happy about more Naruse.

Topsy Turvy may be the best cover they've ever done. Mikado is wonderful as well. And i'm ecstatic I can finally quit picking up and putting back Au Revoir les Enfants at the B&N sales now!

Topsy Turvy's cover is okay and def isn't as mind=blowing as when Fox made the Princess Bride's title font flippable
Great color scheme for the Naruse set

Topsy-Turvy is neat, but I think
this poster was more clever. Also, the Criterion version kinda looks like Wooly Willy.
