Independence Day --- Fox, HBO,
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - Hdnet movies, maybe other...
Apocalypse Now -- hdnet movies, filmfest, showtime...

How The West Was Won was on Guy TV or Gunslingers I believe...

Those are channels ? HD channels ?

And thanks for the replies - I'll wait until those come around again on those channels.

 

[Sean Mota]

guytv or gunslingers no longer exist. All their content went to filmfest HD. They were both HD channels before.

 

[dfergie]

Yeah, they were in the original V* pack and were carrried over to Dishnet for awhile...

A few more:

- Unforgiven
- Fight Club
- Fifth Element

and does one particular channel show the Lord of the Rings HD (in a similar way that HBO/Cinemax show Star Wars) ? Is it Extended Editions ?

 

[Sean Mota]

Unforgiven --- I have seen in a premium channel a long time ago. I do not think they have shown it again.

Fifth Element --- TNT has aired lots of time

 

[dfergie]

Fight Club is coming on one of the premiums within the next week... no 9 day guide availabe to me now (watching 811)

Thanks for the replies - Fight Club is on Cinemax tonight.

PS "Fight" is interesting as "i" "g" and "h" are all on the same keypad key.

Fifth Element --- TNT has aired lots of time

Grrr... Fifth Element is one where I would particularly want uncut, Original Aspect Ratio, no bleeping of words, no 1% speedup to save time, etc. - TNT is not where I would look for that...

thanks though.

I watched Gandhi not too long ago :up
Don't remember which channel, that was.

The Fifth Element was also shown on HBO or some other premium HD channel in the past.

I think pretty much all movies that you mentioned were shown in HD at one time or another, except perhaps for Citizen Kane.

Apocalypse Now only in "Redux". Don't remember seeing the original version.

 

[dfergie]

Fight Club on MaxHD 9:10pm Pdt today...

Starz did show all of the lords of the rings in hd, however i havent seen them on there in awhile.

 

[kstuart]

How about:

- Apollo 13
- Desperado and/or El Mariachi

??

 

[dfergie]

Apollo 13 has been on UHD...

 

[kstuart]

How about:

- Woodstock
- Monterey Pop

or any other films with Jimi Hendrix? Or any Doors concert docs/films?

PS Yes, "Festival Express" and "The Kids Are Alright" were just shown and "A Hard Days Night" is scheduled for a week from now. But that is the only 50's/60's/70's music films I've seen shown in HD...

 

[dfergie]

Monterey Pop was on something a year or two ago I think... Woodstock would be on my wish list for sure...time to break out the dvd again

 

[kstuart]

What about Round Midnight ??

How The West Was Won was just on this week, I recorded it.
