Oddity Archive: Episode 284.2 – Ben’s Junk: Laserviews Laserdisc Magazines
Added 2024-10-16 14:12:40 +0000 UTCThis week, we're looking at a couple of issues of a magazine that...as far as I know, no one's ever covered online. Let's check out some choice pages from the Laserdisc snobs' rag of choice, Laserviews (America's Laser Disc Magazine!).
Barring anything catastrophic, next week should be a thrifting episode.

Actually I already fleabayed a copy (and, true to form, the shipping was worse than the disc).

I've only watched it once. I was hoping it would be more like 'For All Mankind.' I'd be happy to donate the Dream is Alive to your cause, if you want it.

I bet the laser disc is worth a lot since it was the first laser disc they released and then withdrawn when Warner Brothers took back the license. Also, some of the Looney Tunes have their best master only on laser disc, nowhere else. Loved this Ben’s Junk Ben. Happy travels.
