Pretty much the same as the DVD. However the classic jawns got that HD treatment. It all depends on the flick though. For every rough indie flick that looks like ass, there's one that looks

Man, hate to do it, but decided to cancel before my trial ended. Watched a few I'd been wanting to see...but I own so many, and most others are on Kanopy or eventually on TCM that I couldn't justify it

Is Jackie Chan's Police Story 1 and 2 on there?

 

[Baka's Weird Case]

Watching Floating Weeds right now, but adding that to the list

i been on a major Ozu tear the last week. Late Spring, Early Summer, Tokyo Story and Good Morning. Late Spring one of my favorite movies now i think shyt is flawless.

Whats crazy with Ozu is he does variations of the same thing for basically all his movies (same types of shots and all about Japanese family dynamics) but its always so beautiful and slightly different I never feel its repetitive

I think I'm gonna signup for the trial and binge the Mifune's I don't own. I've wanted to see BAD SLEEP WELL for ages and this feels like the right time to finally get to it.

Breh, I'm eating good with both subscriptions . Like I went through half the 30 movies on Mubi, and moved on to the Quincy Jones score collection on Criterion Channel.

If I'm in the mood for the most obscure shyt possible= Mubi

If I want to catch a old flick or something powerful= Criterion

I wish Fandor wasn't dead spiritually . Majority of their movie were dog shyt but it was meaningful dog shyt.

mainly just cause i use mubi inconsistently. there are some movies they have ive seen that are really good and i never would have seen otherwise but for the most part its a streaming service i havent been using a ton and dont want to pay for. and i can often find the stuff they show on torrents.

whereas criterion actually has some material i cant find torrents for

Touche

The exclusives is the main reason why I have my subscription. Beyond that its a toss because last week been kinda ass with the stuff they been putting out

I might start up a subscription just to see what they all got. They stream in 4k?
