'Hey Harry,
Keith Partridge here.I just opened this weeks television schedule from the Columbus Dispatch and inside there was a section called Vital Statistics,where an actors personal info is given every week.This weeks was Michael Madsen and when asked what his current projects are,the first one he mentioned was Quentin Tarantino's "World War II",which is what he calls a reworking of The Dirty Dozen.The war film is not anything new,but I haven't heard anything about Madsen being involved up till now.He made no mention of anyone else,including Adam Sandler,so Lord knows who else will be in this,but apparantly it has a title now.Anyways,thought you and everyone else would like to know that.Keep up the good work and stay cool.

Well, the title isn't exactly all that great (I'm sure it's only a working title), but what is is the fact that Madsen's gonna be in it. He gave, in my opinion, the best performance of anyone in any of Tarantino's films as Mr. Blonde in Dogs, and it's great to see that they're finally going to be working together again.

"In addition to the previously mentioned features, FROM DUSK TIL DAWN will also feature, yes, the FULL TILT BOOGIE documentary on a second disc. The 2-disc set will come in a double-alpha pak, and retail for $39.95. And, yes, the transfer (on the film only, as I'm told FULL TILT BOOGIE was shot full frame) will be anamorphic widescreen. Cool. Also on the same day comes a FROM DUSK TIL DAWN collector's box set, which features the Collector's Series version of the first film, and the other two movie-only editions of DAWN 2 and DAWN 3. Retail is $79.95."
This is really great news, considering that most people (including myself) have never seen Full Tilt Boogie. This DVD just keeps getting better and better...

"Also, we were sent the full specs for the FROM DUSK TIL DAWN disc, and retail price is $39.95. The features include an audio commentary with Director Robert Rodriguez, Quentin Tarantino, and effects supervisor Greg Nicotero, deleted scenes with optional commentary, outtakes, a documentary "Hollywood Goes to Hell", 2 music videos, a still gallery with storyboards, concept drawings and production photos, the trailer and TV spots. No mention is made of the documentary FULL TILT BOOGIE, but the final press release hasn't arrived yet, and given the $39.95 price, we can cross our fingers and hope for a 2-disc set??"
Also, didn't realize I accidentally put "Little Green Bag" as the background music for the PF page, so I just changed it to "Misirlou". From Dusk till Dawn will probably be up tomorrow.

"Also, in good news for FROM DUSK TIL DAWN fans, the long-delayed special editon disc has gottne a new date, 9/26. The disc wil feature the same features as the laserdisc, but according to Buena Vista the disc will be getting a new transfer, which I can hope means anamorphic. The rest of the features are all the same from the laserdisc, including the audio commentary and deleted scenes also with commentary. Stay tuned for more."
The info about the release date has been available for a few days, but the specific bonus material is news (although I figured it'd be the same as the LD).
I changed the Message Board, too. It's now much better looking (the old one was very ugly...).

Anyway, a few important things popped up over the last few weeks, including this from Dark Horizons on June 8th:
"Cryptic hints are leaking out on Quentin Tarantino's future projects, courtesy of inside.com. Hard at work on his World War Two project for Miramax, it seems he's quietly been writing a project entitled "Kill Bill" for good friend Uma Thurman. KB centers around a woman in a coma, features "a great sense of comeuppance" and will shoot next year."
Also, the Switchblade Sisters DVD came out and the From Dusk till Dawn special edition DVD has been pushed back to 9/26. Damn.
