This is the website that supports hard copy media like Blu-ray, 4K Blu-ray, DVD, CD and more, all the way without fail, never lying to or selling out our audience. Proud to say we love owning our favorite releases!

When we wrote that mission statement a few years ago, just before the pandemic hit, this 'don't own anything' trend was already getting tiresome and now, people understand how silly it is. Still, more than a few persons are still at it, but it is especially sad when it is persons associated with hard copy disc media talking of its demise or about something bad about to happen to it. That is made even worse by the fact that they do not work at any home video companies. Why the nihilism, especially if you are one who has/still is making your name and money on discs, why you would bash discs and look like you're rooting for their demise (at least to some extent) is unprofessional at the very least. They still even make CDs because people are buying them, so all the other disc formats (Blu-ray, DVD, 4K, etc.) are not going anywhere and notice how vinyl made a comeback. People want to own discs, so why bash that?

Also, a note on our Search Engine above. It has more capacity and diversity than just looking up titles. You can also look up video companies, studios, TV seasons, genres, directors and stars in some cases, years (if you want very long lists) and much more, so push it to the limit in what you are looking for and you'll find it more useful than you think.

4K Ultra HD Blu-rays continue to grow...

The 2160p Ultra HD 4K Blu-rays have picked up faster than the regular Blu-ray format (and not just because regular Blu-ray had brief competition a decade ago) and faster than DVD (the industry took a while to embrace that format, as few recall these days) and an excellent selection of players playing 4K better than any streaming service.

The High Dynamic Range/HDR feature that enhances the Ultra High Definition 2160p image has been joined by 12-color bit Dolby Vision staring with the original Despicable Me in 4K and the HDR group introduced HDR10+ recently, expanding its 10-color bit capacity for 2019. So far, regular Blu-rays had been included with the 4K versions in the following releases so far (and usually still are, but a little less so now), which we were listing on this homepage until the list became too long. Now, you can consult the ever-growing listing at this link at about 400 titles and counting...

The Best Film Magazine On The Market!

Though it is hard to argue the importance of film publications like American Cinematographer, Indie Slate, Cineaste or Moviemaker and what they deliver, but so much of film history and production is not being covered properly or of key films that deserve whole new audiences. If you love film, you'll love the new hit magazine Cinema Retro, which is getting bigger and bigger. You may want to see about subscribing now while supplies last on the latest issue. You can visit their site at:

www.CinemaRetro.com

"CINEMA RETRO" IS THE MAGAZINE DEVOTED TO CLASSIC & CULT FILMS OF THE '60S & '70S. WRITTEN ABOUT AND BY THE ACTORS & FILMMAKERS OF THE ERA. EVERY ISSUE A LIMITED EDITION COLLECTOR'S ITEM!

Their site offers film news you cannot even find on IMDb, Variety, Deadline Hollywood, The Wrap or The Hollywood Reporter websites. Then there is their amazing magazine, one of the best of its kind on the entire market and a must for any serious film fan, so good that many issues are selling out. One of the best issues yet, Issue #50 features a 50th anniversary celebration of "The French Connection": Todd Garbarini interviews director William Friedkin

"Scars of Dracula": Mark Cerulli interviews stars Jenny Hanley and Christopher Matthews

Mark Mawston interviews Luc Roeg about his father Nicholas Roeg's "Walkabout"

James Bond producer Kevin McClory. Matthew Field and Ajay Chowdhury interview his family members

John Harty pays tribute to "Young Cassidy" starring Rod Taylor

"The Curse of the Werewolf" - Nicholas Anez pays tribute to the underrated Hammer horror film

Dave Worrall on the moving 1974 adventure film "The Dove"

Lee Pfeiffer on what worked and didn't work in "Goodbye, Columbus"

AND... Coming in Issue #51 (September/October)

The behind-the-scenes story of "Cleopatra"

The making of "Ice Station Zebra"

The strange story behind "The Red Tent" starring Sean Connery, Peter Finch and Claudia Cardinale

Plus each issue has Raymond Benson's "Cinema 101" column, Darren Allison's news about the latest soundtrack releases and extensive reviews of new Blu-ray and DVD releases.

They also have an amazing one-shot limited edition issue on Dr. No, new Roadshow Epics Of The '60s special issue, the underrated thriller Kelly's Heroes is available while supplies last (their amazing issue on Where Eagles Dare already sold out, but a new expanded edition is in the works) and an equally terrific second edition on the Sergio Leone/Clint Eastwood "Man With No Name" Trilogy (A Fistful Of Dollars, For A Few Dollars More, The Good The Bad & The Ugly, being reissued on Blu-ray again with upgrades) with all kinds of rare stills, text and other items that make them serious collector's items, so be sure to check things out over there if you love movies.

In the meantime, FulvueDrive-in.com continues to be about providing the most direct, expert, detailed (without ruining anything for first time viewers and listeners, as we are not into spoilers), informative, fun, bold, vital information we can come up with. That fun, yet College-level and all accessible way in which we cover material here benefit all our readers. Some of them are getting the hang of our technical section, but others are starting to catch on. We are doing our best to stay on top of the latest releases and what is happening or being released that you may not have heard about. If it is something you know about, we will have information and observations you will get nowhere else.

Now for some other sites worth checking out...

Our writer Dante Ciampaglia's Crazy From The Heat blog is always worth checking out for comments on film, media and the world at large. You can read him up at:

http://danteaciampaglia.com

Daniel Johnson also has a solid movie blog. He is a fine writer and implores "For amazing movie articles, crazy cinematic lists, and riveting reviews go to Film Babble Blog!" The link is:

http://filmbabble.blogspot.com/

Continuing their winning ways is DVDBeaver, a site that covers Blu-rays, DVDs and films from all over the world like no other, and is one of the only other sites besides ours to do so. Their link is:

www.DVDBeaver.com

We believe that we are one of the few sites that manage to cover both the technical parts of filmmaking, as well as the content and form of the films themselves more thoroughly than you would usually find on other sites or in print. They have reviews as well, but our favorite section is their ever-growing Blu-ray/DVD Comparisons section, which features very technical details on several versions of a given film. Often, they are even from different DVD Regions and Blu-ray regions, but they are always accompanied by still images from each DVD covered. Gary W. Tooze's site is everything the net is supposed to deliver and we will be adding anything we can to contribute to their efforts as they do ours.
