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 is as solid a format as ever with more and
more titles being release, over 500 of which we have covered and
counting. Including the more advanced, 12-color bit Dolby Vision
color format in select titles, here's our growing quick list of our
coverage...

events, so please check out more at this link....

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

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

We
would like to thank all those who have been ordering products from
AMAZON.COM because of the work on this site. We appreciate it, glad
we are encouraging you to do it and want you to know it supports the
site. All purchases are appreciated.
Thank
you!
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:

Continuing
their winning ways is DVDBeaver, a site that covers 4K discs,
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.
