Some crackers on here, very different to the common or garden stuff we get on cinema screens these days.

I'd recommend people try and track a few down.

I find it a very sad state of affairs that I have around 800 TV channels and still have nothing to watch when there are some truly great films out there that have no place to go.

"I find it a very sad state of affairs that I have around 800 TV channels and still have nothing to watch when there are some truly great films out there that have no place to go."

That is the irony of art and life. And also the coolest thing about the net.  When there's no where eles to put it--make a blog. :D

ah dang Rick. As a mega movie geek myself, I'm struggling to keep up with the hundreds of movies that get released at my local video shop and cinema each year.

Now you present us with a list of another hundred or so undistributed film for us to pick and choose from.

I could actually see this happening like over eight years ago when video cam and Mini DV and edit software became possible to use on a home computer. Not to mention the birth of digital technology.

Now we seem to have a flood of movies. who has time to watch so many movies?

And what is really sad is majority people would rather shuffle off in hoards to the megaplex to see the next remake or adaptation rather then take the effort to hunt down unique movies.

Won't Netflix or whatever it is called be the solution in the future? Give all these undistrubited films a home where people can select them and view them?

An alternative to the Big studios?
