Yeah may as well watch it with ads in between, as the director intended.

those directors really think of the viewer…

What about Blu-ray? DVD is 2 generations ago! Surely people have at least a 720p tv and Blu-ray players are dirt cheap these days.
A lot of content is not available on blu ray.

It happened again…
Nine & Ten both scheduled the same movie, two days apart. And the same franchise again, but the sequel.
“Another 48 Hrs” (1990) [Paramount].
•9Go!: Tomorrow night
•ONE: Thursday night.
But Nine have again dropped it, replaced with “Cliffhanger” (1993)
What are the odds!
moved to appropriate thread
Is this listed as a premiere? If so, so Perth get it first, grrr.
Never saw it at the cinema, but wanted to. Such a hillarious show!
Also via NBC Universal, so Seven still getting premieres (another was “The Dressmaker” 2015), depsite much of the library shifting to Nine.
I agree the show is hilarious but that movie was a steaming pile of garbage. I barely made it through the entire thing. It was very disappointing and deserved the scathing reviews.

Damn, so I missed it once already (probably 2016 or last year).
Given what NewsWeary said, I won’t be in a rush to find the DVD now.
I should’ve realised admitting I like Mrs. Brown’s Boys here would be akin to declaring I have an STI (I don’t).
Very few shows are capable of raising a good belly laugh out of me these days.
I grew up on shows like Love Thy Neighbour, Morecambe and Wise, Benny Hill Show and Are You Being Served. I know the humour in these shows is liable to upset many in today’s progressive society. Mrs. Brown’s takes me back to a simpler time when people weren’t so easily offended. It heartens me that this type of show can still be made and the dumb, low-brow comedy can be appreciated in the spirit in which it is intended. The crass, racist, sexist, homophobic humour in the show is palatable because it is delivered with warmth and without malice.
Both Mrs. Brown and Dame Edna also remind me of my dearly departed Granny.

???.. No one said anything to the effect.
We all have our guilty pleasures. Mine’s Drag Race.
I thought that was an odd remark as well. I thought Bort’s comment was in jest.
I’m no fan of MBB but I don’t berate anyone for liking it.
Woah, this thread’s taken a whole new level.
I recognised Bort’s comment was in jest. I certainly didn’t take it seriously. My reply was intended to be tongue in cheek but it obviously didn’t come across that way.
We all have different senses of humour. I accept what I find funny would be unpalatable, or just plain unfunny, to many. I was attempting to give insight into why Mrs. Brown tickles my funny bone.
Anyway… Let’s move on and bring this back on topic. I’m sure we’re all hanging to find out what movies Luke will be watching on tv this week.

Ah, sarcasm doesn’t always translate well in written form I guess.
I personally read it as such straight away.
Next week:
•“Alex and Eve” (2015) Australian movie - premiere on Eleven (Roadshow). Extremely rare not to see it on Nine (another one of theirs on Ten was “Good Will Hunting”).
•“The Game” 1997 (NBC Universal) shifting from Ten to Nine.
•“The Bling Ring” (2013) premiering on 9Go!
And a bunch of Warner Bros (ones aired often and quite recently too) shifting from Nine to Seven (7mate):
•“Lost In Space” (1998)
•“Assassins” (1995)
•“The Specialist” (1994)
•“Sphere” (1998)
And a Fox title “Rising Sun” (1993) returning to Seven (7mate). Seven seem to have revived the select 90s/00s Fox movies they aired during the 2000s (so probably the same copies).

Next week:
•“True Story” (2015) movie premiere on ONE (Fox - Ten only have deal for Regency titles now though).
•“Cape Fear” (1992) network premiere on 9Go! (NBC Universal). Formerly on Seven > Ten.
•“Rambo” (2008) network premiere on 9Go! (Sony). Formerly on Seven, aired a number of times recently.
•“The Bodyguard” (1992) network premiere on Ch 7 (Warner Bros). Formerly on Nine.
SBS Viceland isn’t being careful.
As in they’ve been airing movies that aired on a commercial network only days / weeks ago.
(e.g.) “Bram Stoker’s Dracula” (1992) was on 7flix just over a week ago
