Keith, writing you from Los Angeles, California, USA. I love watching your reviews, because of your absolute honesty, but mostly because of your adoration of films, and, mostly, your highly infectious enthusiasm, as well as your equally infectious humanity...it travels magnificently from Ireland to L.A. Keep up the great work!!
Wow this is my first comment I've read today and I have to admit that is going to set me up so beautifully for today. Thank you so much for the incredibly kind words. I'm doing this thing when it comes to my videos whenever I find a comment like this I always want to pin it so everybody else can read it and congratulations my friend this is that comment. I've said it so many times when it comes to my channel but it's very easy to be this enthusiastic when you love something as much as I love this and it's great to hear that it shines through on my videos. A huge thank you again my friend. Have a great weekend
Excellent video Keith. That’s an amazing set mate. Looks absolutely stunning. First Man is a great film. I really enjoyed this one. Awesome stuff Keith.👍😃
This edition was a long time coming but it was definitely worth the wait. Thank you as always Scott for taking the time to stop by and check it out. Look after yourself my friend
Send that one over Keith! I already have the 4K but I prefer the look of your one so I'll have it please! Seriously, just wanted to send you a "WELL DONE" on reaching 10,000 subscribers. And to tell you that I recently found the time to read the FIRST MAN hardback book I purchased for only a few pounds last year. This is 'The Annotated Screenplay' and once I started it I had to finish it. It tells you everything you need to know about why certain events in the film were re-arranged or re-worked for cinematic effect as well as telling how things fell into place in real life. As I recall, FIRST MAN was shot in 16mm apart from the moon sequence which was genuine 15/65 IMAX but I don't know if this film ever got a 15/70 release so I'll have to look that up to remind myself. The reason for the use of 16mm and 15/65 was to make it look like a period film and then when we arrive on the moon the IMAX frame closely matches the film format used for the high quality still photographs the Apollo crews used on the moon. Congratulations on reaching such an amazing milestone. Only another 90,000 to go and you'll get one of those worthless RU-vid plaques! John.
I had a funny feeling you might stop by this video John because I know you're a fan of the movie and I thought you might appreciate this amazing release that I got for it. Unfortunately it's a little too early for me to part with it but as soon as I do you'll be the first I'll call upon. I'll see you in at least 60 years 😂😂. I can't stress to you how much I love the look of this movie. It really does look like it was shot in that period and I think it makes that IMAX scene that little bit more impressive. I honestly cannot fault the movie. Every single aspect of it I love. Such a shame that it never found an audience in the cinema. I think it says a lot when it comes to younger audiences today. Thank you so much by the way for the very kind words. I honestly don't know how any of this has happened but I'm happy it has. It's a number I never thought I would ever hit and we'll see where it goes from here. I'm counting down the days so I can get my RU-vid plaque. I'm in desperate need of a good paper weight. But thank you as always John for taking the time to stop by. All the best to you and Susie
I honestly can't praise the movie enough. Definitely worth checking out. Yeah it was great to finally get this release of it. It's been a long time coming. Thank you for checking it out
Hi Keith. Great review of first man. Just orders a copy from film arena. Thanks again for recommending HD movie source I received my copy of the abyss and aliens from them. Still haven’t watched the abyss 😢 Take care keith and keep up the great reviews.
I am so happy to hear that you ordered yourself a copy Darren. I can't imagine there's too many of them left seeming they are limited to 600 copies. Great to hear that you received your abyss and aliens and I really hope you enjoy them my friend. Thank you so much for stopping by and letting me know. All the best to you
I think you'll be massively impressed David when you get around to watching it. You will not believe some of the hardships he had to go through during it.
Hey Mike. I honestly couldn't recommend it enough. Like I said in my video it's a history lesson but it's a very important one. I think you'll be impressed.
I saw this at the cinema with my Son. The screen we saw it on had moving seats which added to the experience. I’ve got the 4K which I got cheap from someone on Facebook marketplace.
Wow now that Would be an experience. Such a shame we don't get anything like that over here. Great to hear that you picked up the 4K release. I think it looks fantastic.
have you watched the Apple TV show For all mankind it's the US-to-Russian space race from an alternate timeline very absorbing and excellent watch all 4 seasons of it
Like I said in the video Roy it's a history lesson but it's incredibly important. You will not believe some of the things that you never realized about Neil Armstrong until you watch this. Thanks for stopping by my friend
Great video Keith. I absolutely love this movie. I love the understated performance from Ryan Gosling and it looks fantastic on 4k. The moon landing alone for both visuals and that music is worth it picking it up. I wish I had seen it in the cinema.
There's no denying that Ryan Gosling is an absolute Talent and he shines in this movie. What a performance. He comfortably carries this movie and that's saying something when you consider the cast. Thank you as always David for taking the time to stop by and check it out.
Yeah I had a feeling there was a standalone version for that Steelbook. I absolutely love it. I think it compliments the main box perfectly. Thanks for checking it out
Amazingly enough Gary I have never seen the right stuff. I really need to remedy that. But I hope you give this a go. I think you'll be incredibly impressed. Not just by the movie itself but the way the 4K handles everything is very unique. Thank you for stopping by
Hi Keith, A lovely edition , still have to catch this one . Special feature unfortunately are not so special these days , not like the the extended lord of the rings !
Yeah like I said in the video John the special features are brilliant but way too short. I definitely think you'll enjoy the movie. Probably one of Ryan Gosling's best performances
Yeah it was a long time coming but it was worth the wait in the end. Thank you so much David for taking the time out of your day to stop by and check it out. I hope you have a great weekend
Now that is what I want to hear. That is fantastic Ken. I really hope my video does the release Justice. It's fantastic and I know you're going to love it
Nice release Keith 👌. I have the U mania edition full slip with Steelbook but no lenticular with that. I went to see this at the cinema and the moon scenes were very impressive!
I can only imagine what it must have looked like if you went to see it in IMAX. That moon landing. It's perfection. I actually never heard of u mania before. Have you done a video
Wonderful review Keith , of the movie and of the collector's edition by Film Arena. We must be two like-minded individuals when it comes to our passion for some movies, because FIRST MAN is a favorite of mine. Undoubtedly Ryan Gosling's best role and no Academy nomination for it. Claire Foy as well. True about the color, it's sixties style, but when it changes to IMAX on the Moon, it is breathtaking, even on a regular blue-ray. I revalue the movie listening to your praise for it. I think we have common sensitivity Keith. Amazing edition that has fallen into your capable and safe hands. I cannot thank you enough. Take care my friend.
I think when you look at the comparisons that I put up on the screen there's not what you call a drastic difference over the Blu-ray and the 4k so it's no surprise to hear that you were able to appreciate what was on Show by watching the Blu-ray. It was shot in 16 mm to make it look like it was shot in that time period and it worked perfectly and it does make that IMAX scene that little bit more special. I am so happy to hear that you enjoy it as much as I do. Hands down Ryan Gosling's best performance and he excelled in that role. As for this edition I have been trying to find it for so long and to finally have it in my collection is very special to me. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and check it out. Not only that but sharing your thoughts on it as well. All the best to you my friend
What a lovely edition Keith! This is a great film that deserved to do better at box office! Keep up the great reviews. On a side note, I'm still buzzing from meeting Ryan on Monday at Fall Guy London premiere where he was kind enough to stop for photo and sign my Drive poster - what a cool man and great actor!
I have all the time in the world when it comes to Ryan Gosling and I am so jealous that you managed to get a photo with him as well as an autograph. He looks like a genuine nice guy and I honestly can't praise his talent enough. Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing that with me.
The atmos is terrific on this 1 mate. Really has a sense of being compressed in the cabin. I used to have a similar edition to this , mine was a numbered korean edition, hard Slipcase, booklet cards and steelbook. I stupidly sold it on cheap as i got the regular steelbook in a bundle, 'regrets, ive had a few'
I think I know the release you are talking about Ian. If I remember correctly it was limited to 1000 copies I think. I cannot remember the label who brought it out. It's a shame you parted with it. If you said it to me at the time I probably would have bought it off you.
@@millerman9991 yeh mate I've made some bad calls in my collection, I swapped a new & Sealed the Shining 4k steelbook for godzilla! Straight swap 😔! ! At times , I'm thick as fkn mince 😂! Not sure if you managed to get the departed steelbook after I messaged you mate , but it's sold out now , but there's another option on the site, think it's about €8 dearer tho.
No I didn't manage to pick up The Departed but I'm almost certain you can get it on Amazon Italy so I'm going to be okay. If not I'm sure HD movie source will be able to get it for me.
Good film I would have liked bit more time on the moon, when that vacuum of space silence kicks in is so well done. Question where for us in Ireland can we get Dune 2 steelbook do you know, I only see hmv 😢
I actually have to agree with you on that one Shane. Maybe an extra 10 minutes when it comes to the moon sequence. As for the Steelbook of Dune 2 I'm looking towards HD movie source and if I don't get it there Amazon Italy are selling it. There is definitely a few options out there
You have sold this to me Keith, I'm going to check this one out. Even though I'm suspect to whether or not man went to the moon, it sounds like a good watch. This one is a nice looking edition and some nice artwork.
Honestly Gary you need to check this one out. It's more of a Neil Armstrong movie than a moon landing movie if that makes any sense whatsoever. Trust me it will make sense when you see it. Thank you as always my friend for stopping by and I hope to see you later on the stream
I have seen the one click edition John and I would love to own it. I thought it was incredibly unique. Unfortunately it goes for crazy money. You never know maybe someday. Thank you for stopping by my friend
@johnfitzpatrick9994 to be honest John it might be way outside my price range as well. Especially now that I have this release. The incentive wouldn't be there for it
I already own this movie FIRST MAN on dvd-bluray. BUT wanted the 4k uhd as it is in atmos. Supposed to arrive here tomorrow on Saturday May 11. I wish warners would put out "RIGHT STUFF" in 4k. I hope you are okay. Great review. Enjoy your reviews. Keep up the great work.
The movie sounds amazing on 4k. You'll know yourself very soon. Yeah I wouldn't say no to a 4K release of Right Stuff. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before it happens. Thank you so much for checking it out
Hi Keith how do I test my channel separation on my sound system as I seen on Reddit that the Samsung q90r and the 990b & c have not so good channel separation and im stressed that mine is like that now I was also wondering how is your channel separation? Would be much appreciated
You can't go wrong when it comes to a James Bond box set. I think I have two in my collection. Yeah this release is definitely worth looking out for. It's a stunner. Thank you for checking it out Arthur
That's the problem when it comes to James Bond box sets because they are always going to bring out James Bond movies. It'll be very hard to have a complete box set
