***GRATITUDE***
I wanted to take a moment to say thank you to everyone who follows the page, DMs me with questions, hangs out on my YouTube show, buys a copy of my magazine, or supports the releases that I work on. This community is INCREDIBLE and I do not ever take it for granted. I put so much work into this because I love it just like you do and I simply want to make work that I would love to see myself.
With it being this time of year, I have had a few people ask this week how they can help support Disc-Connected and the other stuff I do. Links for those are below, but please don't feel obligated or pressured to do anything. Participating in all of this is surreal to me and I do not have ANY expectations for any sort of support from you all.
Ways you can support Disc-Connected and the other stuff I do:
- Become a patron. Go to patreon.com/DiscConnected and sign up at the tier of your choice and participate in the community. I have to pay for a LOT of things out of pocket to keep all of this working and that support goes a long way. Bonus: If you join at the Production Manager tier or higher, you get access to exclusive updates I am giving about the biggest project I have EVER worked on, coming in 2026! CAN NOT WAIT TO SHARE WITH EVERYONE WHAT THAT IS!!
- Change your amazon bookmark. If you are still shopping at Amazon, change your bookmark on your computer and phone to this URL: amzn.to/4bxBP4e
If you click that link before you shop, Amazon gives a tiny amount as a little kickback to me- at no cost to you!
- Buy The Physical Media Advocate magazine that I put out on paperback or digital 10-12X per year. We are particularly proud of the issue that released this month!: l.linklyhq.com/l/1utJN
- Share the stuff I do. Any time you like something I have a hand in making, share the video link, the podcast link, the deal link, etc. When someone asks who to follow for physical media announcements and deals, share my page with them. Don't assume someone else will, share the love everywhere.
- Sign up for the email newsletter on my production company's website. Here, you will find a list of many of the titles we have worked on amongst a ton of other information: someonesfavoriteproductions.…
- Comment! If a movie gets announced and you like it, comment! It reminds people of the page and it comes up in their feed.
- Buy Disc-Connected merch and wear it everywhere!: teepublic.com/user/the-disc-…
- Come on my show! Invite me on your show! Collaborate and grow the community! We all just want to expand our network a bit. DM me or email me at DiscConnected [email protected] if you want to chat on a collaboration.
- Last case , If you just want to Donate:

Note: I will be LIVE on my weekly show #ReConnected just like every other Thursday starting at 9:30p EST. I will be up late covering all of the Black Friday sales and all of the announcements form this last week. Hope to see you there!

***FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN***
A Kickstarter campaign has launched for #HomeVideoSaga out of the UK.
Quotes from the campaign:
HOME VIDEO SAGA was born from the wish to share with you my love of physical media and everything it has given me. All of it through a story that is both playful and educational, in editions with elaborate interactivity, paying tribute to the great days of the LaserDisc and the DVD. It will be a chance to show you what happens behind the scenes and to give a voice to the people we too rarely hear from.
CHOOSE YOUR EDITION:
FOUR PHYSICAL EDITIONS:
- Standard
- Dual
- Reference
- Archive
After five years of global blackout, the power finally comes back on. All broadcasting had stopped, and films survived only on physical media, scattered and forgotten. Collectors banded together, helped by droids, to build archive centers. In one of them, devoted to Star Wars, an instructor droid is training a young unit. To pass on the value of these editions, he tells them their story: from the beginnings of cinema and television to the innovations that ran through fifty years of home video.
Star Wars has been with me since childhood. Super 8, Betamax, VHS, V2000, CED, LaserDisc, DVD, Blu-ray, Blu-ray 4K Ultra HD... My own collection brings together fifty years of releases of that saga on physical media from all over the world. It sits at the heart of the film, in a set built around it.
The 2 hour docu-fiction combines live action with 3D imagery made by artists, with no generative artificial intelligence, carried by an original score written for the film. It is both a history lesson and a love letter to these films. This is not a film about Star Wars, but about the way it came into our living rooms. About the formats that followed one another, and what each of them brought to picture and sound.
ALREADY DONE:
THE FOUNDATIONS ARE LAID • The trailer set the groundwork for the project: building the set, the lighting, the choice of camera equipment. • The research on the editions and on the period hardware is done, and so is the negotiation with the partners. • The concepts and the design look are approved in 3D. • The cast, the composer, the mixing and sound design team, the art direction and the book's authors are all lined up, as is the company that will produce the packaging.
STILL TO DO:
PRODUCE AND MANUFACTURE
The whole film still has to be produced:
shooting, VFX, 3D and post-production.
Then these editions have to be manufactured.
That is what your support will make possible.

***ANNOUNCEMENT***
Coming at the end of October on Blu-ray in the US from @DeafCrocodile: #SodaPopJoe (previously known as #LemonadeJoe) (1964)!
A decade before BLAZING SADDLES, there was … SODA POP JOE! Originally released here as LEMONADE JOE, the film opens in Stetson City, 1885, a booze-soaked town where musical artiste Tornado Lou (Květa Fialová) belts out Marlene Dietrich-like tearjerkers. Her dream appears in the form of spotlessly clean Soda Pop Joe (Karel Fiala), who turns out to be a traveling sales rep for Kolaloka Soda (an entertaining pun meaning “a sip of Cola”), which he relentlessly hawks in the film’s barbed satire of Western consumerism. (His rendition – dubbed by Karel Gott, one of the pop-stars of the era – of "Smith & Wessons on my hip / Nothing else comes near my lips ... Kolaloka!" is one of the film’s many musical gems.) Czech director Oldřich Lipský’s delightful spoof of all things Western and the dominance of corporate brands was the first of three comedies he made with writer Jiří Brdečka, followed by ADELA HAS NOT HAD SUPPER YET and MYSTERIOUS CASTLE IN THE CARPATHIANS. Co-starring Lipský’s frequent collaborators Olga Schoberová (WHO WANTS TO KILL JESSIE?) as a pure-hearted crusader for teetotaling and Miloš Kopecký as trickster villain Hogo Fogo. Filled with nonstop visual puns and sight gags, and an almost Karel Zeman-like Gothic / fantastic touch, the film has been gorgeously restored in 4K by the Národni filmový archiv, Prague. In Czech with English subtitles.
SPECIAL FEATURES
Four rare short films:
“My Darling Clementine” – 1959, 6 min. Jiří Brdečka’s delightful Folk Art style animated short set to a Czech version of the famed song.
“Song of the Prairie” – 1949, NFA, 19 min. Famed director Jiří Trnka’s stop-motion homage to John Ford’s STAGECOACH, adapted from a Jiří Brdečka novel.
"The Face -- 1973, 3 min. Dir. Jiří Brdečka. Pre-Bill Plympton, this minimalist short shows a man’s face changing as he passes through life.
"Reason and Emotion" -- 1962, 15 min. Dir. Jiří Brdečka. This mid-century animated short follows a man with a trumpet who tries to modify the world around him.
48-page booklet featuring:
New essay by film historian Jonathan Owen
New essay by film critic Walter Chaw
New commentary by film critic and screenwriter Tereza Brdečková and Czech film expert Irena Kovarova of Comeback Company
New visual essay “Soda Pop Joe: The Gospel of the Brand” (2026, 13 min.) by experimental filmmaker and film scholar Stephen Broomer

***ANNOUNCEMENT***
Coming at the end of October on Blu-ray in the US from @DeafCrocodile: #Frankenstein: Legend of Terror (1981)!
“Don’t tell me you believe in monsters?,” asks the balding police inspector investigating a series of grisly supernatural murders, in this surprisingly adult Gothic Japanese animated feature based on Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, published in 1818. Produced by Toei Animation and directed by Yugo Serikawa (THE LITTLE PRINCE & THE EIGHT-HEADED DRAGON, CYBORG 009), the film opens on images of a ruined graveyard and a castle lab with gruesome animal heads and bone saws – and never lets up from there, as Dr. Frankenstein (voiced by Nachi Nozawa), his wife and daughter are followed by the tormented creature (voiced by Hosei Komatsu), who is barely able to mutter his own name (he’s known as just “Franken” in the film.) The hulking, shambling “Franken” ultimately emerges as a pitiable and despairing figure on par with Boris Karloff’s incarnation from the 1930s (and watch for the scene where he staggers into a church and compares the wound on his hand to the stigmata on the crucified Jesus!). Newly restored in 4K from the original camera negative by Deaf Crocodile and Toei Animation, this excellent and too-long overlooked Gothic gem takes its place as one of the finest Japanese animated horror and sci-fi films from the 1980s. In Japanese w/ English subtitles.
SPECIAL FEATURES
New restoration from the original 35mm original negative based on a new 5K scan by Toei Animation. Digital restoration for Deaf Crocodile by Craig Rogers and Michael Coronado. Restoration color grade by Tyler Fagerstrom.
48-page illustrated booklet featuring:
New essay by film critic Walter Chaw
New essay by animator & filmmaker Dorian Saisse
Rare original production art from the film from the archives of Toei Animation
New audio commentary by film historian Arne Venema
New visual essay by Ryan Verrill and Dr. Will Dodson of Someone’s Favorite Productions
New roundtable with Eisner Hall of Fame comics artist, film historian and author Stephen R. Bissette, acclaimed comics artist Kelley Jones and podcaster Erik Hanson (Cradle to the Grave), discussing the long, rich history of Frankenstein adaptations in film and comics from the Silent Era up to today - moderated by Dennis Bartok.
New subtitles by Jason Franzman

Coming on December 13th on separate #4K and Blu-ray releases in the UK from @ArrowFilmsVideo: #LogansRun (1976)!
WELCOME TO THE 23RD CENTURY. THE PERFECT WORLD OF TOTAL PLEASURE.
One of the most beloved science-fiction classics of the 1970s, Logan’s Run has endured for over 50 years thanks to its shocking and colorfully vivid depiction of a future both utopian and dystopian, where boundless pleasure comes at a deadly price.
The year is 2274; overpopulation and wars have ravaged the earth. The survivors live a carefree, hedonistic existence in Domed City, a hermetically sealed, shiny metropolis ruled by a supercomputer, but under one condition: life must end at the age of thirty. Those who attempt to flee their fate are known as “runners”, desperately searching for a legendary Sanctuary somewhere outside the city. The hunter becomes the hunted when Logan 5 (Michael York), one of the lethal Sandmen assigned to track down the fugitives, is forced to turn runner himself. His only hope of survival is to find Sanctuary, with the aid of rebel girl Jessica 6 (Jenny Agutter).
Winner of a Special Academy Award for its eye-popping and innovative visual effects, Logan’s Run is finally renewed in glorious 4K, in a definitive edition with hours of never-before-seen bonus material.

Coming on December 13th on separate #4K and Blu-ray releases in the UK from @ArrowFilmsVideo: #WhenHarryMetSally (1989)!
CAN TWO FRIENDS SLEEP TOGETHER AND STILL LOVE EACH OTHER IN THE MORNING?
In 1989, after the huge success of This is Spinal Tap, Stand by Me and The Princess Bride, director Rob Reiner would go on to collaborate with Nora Ephron (You’ve Got Mail), Billy Crystal (City Slickers) and Meg Ryan (Innerspace) to radically redefine the romantic comedy with When Harry Met Sally…
Harry Burns (Billy Crystal) and Sally Albright (Meg Ryan) share a ride to New York City. Initially, Harry’s bravado and Sally’s innocence clash, particularly over the question “can men and women be friends?” Despite this, over many years of chance encounters, a deep friendship develops between the two. As their connection blossoms, a sudden lapse of judgment forces both Harry and Sally to answer once and for all: can men and women truly just be friends?
With a timeless and Academy Award-nominated screenplay, career best performances from its stars, as well as flawless supporting performances by Carrie Fisher (Star Wars) and Bruno Kirby (City Slickers), it’s impossible not to love When Harry Met Sally…!

Coming on December 6th in the UK and December 7th in North America on separate #4K and Blu-ray releases from @ArrowFilmsVideo: #Bullitt (1968)!
THERE ARE BAD COPS AND THERE ARE GOOD COPS - AND THEN THERE'S BULLITT.
It’s a mood, it’s a look, it’s the roar of an engine and the screech of tyres on asphalt. It’s the car, it’s the music, it’s McQueen and his ice cool eyes. Fasten your seatbelt, Bullitt is back.
When the star witness for a Senate hearing on organized crime is killed before taking the stand, federal prosecutor Walter Chalmers (Robert Vaughn) blames Lt. Frank Bullitt (Steve McQueen), the man tasked with keeping the witness safe. Now Bullitt is out to find the triggermen and bring down the kingpin behind them. But nothing is quite what it seems and as he digs deeper into the case, he himself becomes a target.
An iconic action thriller with one of the greatest car chases ever put on film, impeccably directed by Peter Yates, Bullitt set the bar and would go on to influence Walter Hill (The Driver), Michael Mann (Heat), Quentin Tarantino (Death Proof), Christopher McQuarrie (Jack Reacher) and many more.

Coming on December 6th on #4K in the UK from @ArrowFilmsVideo: #BlackChristmas (1974)!
IF THIS PICTURE DOESN’T MAKE YOUR SKIN CRAWL… IT’S ON TOO TIGHT.
Before Halloween and Friday the 13th came to define the slasher movie, director Bob Clark (Deathdream) laid the groundwork with Black Christmas – a chilling, suspenseful masterpiece that transformed an ordinary holiday into a nightmare.
As the festive break begins, the residents of a sorority house find themselves tormented by a series of obscene phone calls. But when one of the young women disappears, the disturbing messages give way to something far more sinister. With a relentless killer hiding in plain sight and panic mounting inside the house, the survivors must confront an unseen evil before Christmas comes to a bloody end.
Steeped in atmosphere and mounting dread, and featuring an iconic cast headlined by genre stalwarts Olivia Hussey, Margot Kidder and John Saxon, this Canadian classic is a landmark of psychological terror whose shocking ingenuity and nerve-shredding suspense make it one of the most influential horror films ever made.

***ANNOUNCEMENT***
Coming on December 6th on separate #4K and Blu-ray releases in the UK from @ArrowFilmsVideo: #BlueVelvet (1986)!
Few filmmakers have left as significant a mark on culture as David Lynch, with his singular vision, lucid dreamscapes and liminal darkness. Before Twin Peaks and Wild at Heart brought him mainstream success, in 1986 he stunned the world with what many still consider to be his masterpiece: Blue Velvet.
One day in the all-American town of Lumberton, college student Jeffrey Beaumont (Kyle MacLachlan) finds a severed ear. Compelled to dig further with the help of Sandy (Laura Dern), Jeffrey embarks on a journey into the dark side of Lumberton, where he is exposed to the sadistic, the psychotic and the strange that exists behind closed doors. His investigation first brings him to nightclub singer Dorothy Vallens (Isabella Rossellini) and on a collision course with Frank Booth (Dennis Hopper), the frightening epicentre of small-town evil.
Whether it’s Hopper’s ferocious performance, Lynch’s uncompromising direction or the film’s unforgettable portrait of corruption beneath idyllic Americana, Blue Velvet remains as startling and controversial today as it was upon release, and returns in a definitive, director-approved 4K restoration.
