Episode 633: I’m Mad As Hell And I’m Going To T.A.G. You
Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski take you through another week in physical media and it’s a pretty great week. You can get one of Scorsese’s first, Richard Pryor’s last concert film and even some early Matt LeBlanc. Peter shows some fondness for Lori Petty’s bizarre comic book adaptation and even a little Troma. One of Erik’s “Why is this not on blu-ray” choices gets its debut courtesy of Synapse. 20 years before Jurassic Park there was the original Michael Crichton amusement park. The pair debate the legacy of a “prescient” media satire with the late, great Robert Duvall. Finally, not only can you get perhaps the best Tarzan film ever made but John Boorman’s incredible telling of the King Arthur legend gets what will be amongst the great upgrades of the year.
