Can’t wait to watch this movie and review. I only discovered John Waters this year! I’ve had the worst time of my life health wise these past few days so this video is very welcome. I put on one of your reviews earlier when I needed to relax. Anyway, cool thing, I got an email that my Can’t Hardly Wait digital got upgraded to 4K UHD!! No extras showing up so probably disc only 🤷♂️
Oh heck yea he is a super unique director/writer. I am sorry to hear about your health situation. Dealing with health problems is frustrating and tiring. I'm glad you were able to relax a lil. That's awesome that it got upgraded. It's about to look beautiful in 4K!
So I just watched it and it’s definitely not one of my favorite John Waters films, but it still has his vibe. My eyes went wide plenty of times with stuff that was said and happening! It’s gross that the ignorant racist fear portrayed is so alive and well still today. You would hope films like this would highlight how ridiculous and inhumane it is and push people forward! Not that it didn’t accomplish that to some degree though. I think you should totally stick to DVDs. The softer quality vs the crazy definition of today is nostalgic. And I really have a thing for more full screen aspect ratios (even if in some cases you’re losing chunks on the right and left). I wish there were modern smaller lightweight TV screens that replicated older televisions. They could even sell licensed movies on cartridges that have replica VHS packaging. God I’d be so in love with that! But I’m already buying multiple copies of movies and CDs… I’ve already said this before but I really look forward to you showing your DVD boxes! This one has a great disc art and insert. I feel like you rarely get an insert these days that continues the art direction of the title. It’s usually promotional crap or a slip with the digital code, which is always welcome, but doesn’t go along with the rest of the art. You were SO outrageously lucky to find Pink Flamingoes that day. I remember you had a reaction upon finding it hehe understandable! It has a Criterion Collection Blu-ray with unique art. I think they rescanned the film or something but I would think that’s still overkill for what it is. Always appreciate an upgrade though! That review is how I found you 🦩
Sorry I’m approaching essay territory today. You HAVE to see this f***ed up movie The Curve. It’s on Tubi and stars Matthew Lillard as this insane jerk. It’s outrageous. Left me exhausted. But I think you’ll like how nuts it is!
I'm glad you checked it out! I liked it for the most part, but I agree with a lot of your points. I appreciate the new 4K stuff, but I honestly really like how movies look on DVD. Like you said, a lot of DVD's offered more creative artwork and menus. That's crazy that you found me from the Pink Flamingos vid. I really was extatic when I found that movie in the wild.
@@Ea3Reviews I forgot to mention Divine took me out with his secondary role. I could see him as a Batman universe Penguin or Mad Hatter! Too bad he has passed 😢 And I believe around the release of Hairspray where his performance was well received! He wanted to pursue more roles outside of his popular persona. I'm glad he has so many iconic movie roles and music to appreciate him forever!
Divine killed it as the TV executive character. I forgot to mention that too. Divine was super talented and unique. It's fun that him and John Waters were kind of a packaged deal.

No worries bro I like talking movies. Thanks for the recommendation. I'll add The Curve to my Tubi watchlist.
