Episode 411: The ‘80s Are Far From Over

Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski get you caught up on the latest in physical media for this week and the next. They include new 4K editions from two of the great directorial runs of the ‘80s and the ‘90s. Comic book movies from this summer are on tap including one that Peter genuinely loves. Though he does disagree with Erik on the latest Jennifer Lawrence vehicle. Music Box Films has a set combining expansive documentaries on the history of film, Arrow has some early Jackie Chan and Magnolia has new Paul Schrader. The pair go down the rabbit hole of Family Ties to introduce a ‘80s romcom/horror oddity and as that decade goes it does not get more ‘80s than Burt Reynolds and the sequel to Saturday Night Fever.
