    July 8th, 2008 -- what are you getting this week?

    Batman Beyond Season Two being $12.99 seems to be a mistake to me. Seasons 1 & 3 only retail at about $27 so that's about 50% off, but season 2 is twice as long and retails for about $45, making that a 70% discount... either way this works for me, since I almost bought these sets a couple...

    Adult Swim Ressurecting an Older Show (Any Possibility)

    They acutally do a really good job of explaining the details of how Home Movies ended up on Adult Swim in the commentaries of the Season 1 box set. I don't remember the detials, but if you're a Home Movies fan you should do yourself a favor and get them on dvd. Edit: Also Mission Hill is...

    July 8th, 2008 -- what are you getting this week?

    Holy crap it's been a long time since I posted here, I just had to see if my account still worked lol. But anyway, I saw Gotham Knight and it was so good I'm sure I'll pick it up eventually. I was gonna get Monk season 6 but I didn't realize there was another Monk/Psyche set, I'll probly get...

    The Complete Kids in the Hall: 31Oct06

    I've already got S1 & S2, so I'm wondering what the price on this will be after it comes out on DDD... Seasons 1-4 = 132.68 + S5 should be about... 170... Having one big collection is awesome, but I wonder if this will be worth it...

    MST3K Vol. 10 Contents Announced!

    I just got done watching the KTMA episodes (Keep Circulating the Tapes!) and I have to say, the Comedy Channel versions were better. I'm not saying the KTMA episodes aren't worth watching, especially considering they probably had 1/10th the budget of the CC ones, but I don't think I'll be...

    Criterion unveils new logo, website design.

    I do to, but one thing I do like is how it has the year over on the side. Plus, Mike Allred! Sweet!

    SuperDay Poll

    Sorry, I didn't notice you were talking about that far in advance, I saw "Justice League Season" and thought of season 1 coming out next week. I didn't even know Season 2 was scheduled, especially not that soon after season 1. In that case, I guess I'll pick up JL season two hehe. As for that...

    Harry Potter: Goblet of Fire - Single & 2-disc sets coming

    I listened to the unabridged audiobook and I thought the movie was much less coherent... maybe listening to it made it easier to follow, I don't know. I know that you can't compress a book that large into a 2 hour movie, and I think they did a good job with the time constraints they had, but I...

    Honestly, how can HD and BR make movies look better?

    I was skeptical at first, but this is an awesome comparison giving you an excellent idea of how big a diffenece there is between HD-DVD and the old format. http://www.cornbread.org/FOTRCompare/index.html Still won't make a lick of difference to my poor 28" Symphonic tv :crying:

    What's the best DVD ripper?

    I've always preferred DvdDecryptor, for straight ripping, but DvdShrink for Copies or Reauthoring. Very simple interface. You might have to look around a bit for DvdDecrypter, since it's creator was sued by the RIAA or MPAA or some such evil empire :( It's still around though, and still the...

    You got my hopes up that this was Cronenberg's Crash :( But deep down I already knew it wasn't:shrug:

    Napoleon Dynamite: Like The Best Special Edition Ever! -- coming 5/16/06

    And this is a sub-group of the "Best movie of the centrury" club. Anytime someone claims something is "mind-blowingly fantastic" it's not true. Regardless of the acutal merits of a film, or book or whatever, building it up like that always takes away from the thing itself. For example, I...

    Extended edition of 'Chronicles of Narnia' rumored

    I enjoyed Narnia, but it didn't "wow" me. That might be because I'm so familiar with the books, I don't know. I'm pretty sure I'll buy it, but I don't know which version. With LotR I bought both as soon as they came out because I really liked the theatrical versions, and I really wanted to...

    "Life Goes On" to be without its namesake, BRAH.....

    Disappointing, but expected. :( Well, not really a disappointment for me, since I wasn't looking forward to this show or planning on buying it, but I remember it fondly and I'm always annoyed when something like this happens. The main reason I buy the shows and movies I do on dvd is because...

    Napoleon Dynamite: Like The Best Special Edition Ever! -- coming 5/16/06

    I enjoyed this movie immensely, but I've only seen it twice, and I have almost no desire to watch it again any time soon. I don't hold in in 'highest regard' but I do enjoy it. I think because it's one of those movies that gets under your skin. I find I can't stop saying "GOSH!" or "LUCKY!"...

    DVD-18: A good idea gone horribly wrong?

    My Apex played it fine, but I agree with you, it was pretty annoying to open up such a nice case and see one double sided disc. How could you spend so much on custom packaging and skimp so much on the most important part? I would have greatly perferred a generic plastic case with two discs...

    January 31st, 2006 -- what are you getting this week?

    I am definitely getting the Extended Dune. Sunday Bestbuy ad said $16.99 so I'll probly go get it there. Bubble looks interesting, and I've heard alot about it, but there's no way I'm spending $27.95 or whatever for it, I'll wait till after it flops and pick it up in 6 weeks for a song...

    January 24th, 2006 -- what are you getting this week?

    Anyone see the ad from BestBuy that had Enterprise seasons for $44.99? I went by the store and they had a photocopied piece of paper saying it was a mistake and they won't honor it, but someone told me they did at a different bestbuy...

    They don't want you to know how much Marge costs.... (Simpsons DVD)

    It looks like both the "Marge head" packaging and the standard box will be available, does anyone know the details on this? Will the box the same as the season 6 box that you sent off for that just slid the dvds into, or will it be the same as seasons 1-5? Will you be able to send off to get a...

    November 29th, 2005 -- what are you getting this week?

    Same here. I'm pleased with the Family Guy set, even if it is only 13 episodes, but the Mission Hill set kind of pisssed me off. I understand why they don't want to pay extra for songs in the show originally (i.e. R.E.M.'s everybody hurts) and in most cases it was either just background music or...

    "Firefly" Series Talkback (Spoilers)

    A direct to video movie could work, or even another (although probably lower budget) theatrical release, but a direct to video tv series? I don't think that would work. Would be nice though... Also, even though I hardly ever buy dvds the day they come out anymore, I'm getting Serenity, it's...

    Peter Chung Has Ruined Aeon Flux -- Star Wars-Style!

    Probably, but we don't want the creator's impoved version, we want the original version, if only for completeness' sake. I wouldn't mind having 'update' versions, but the originals should be there too. That's the argument that most opponents of the Star Wars changes have always put forward...

    Ah, I thought they'd just sold out of Rahxephon and Evangelion Platinum... good to know, but still kind of annoying.

    Ah, I looked and didn't see on, so I figured this was a good place to put it. Yeah, I wish the sale was on both sites, there's some music I've been wanting to pick up!

    Thinking about Deep Discount

    Well, I just got an email from DeepDiscountCD (not DVD) telling me about a promotion at one of their "affiliate sites" and guess what? 20% off all DVD's at DeepDiscountDvd going on from 11/11 through 11/19... ends this friday but I only got the email today... well whatever. Here's a pic!

    Has anyone mentioned this? Marijuana May Stimulate Brain Cell Growth Nothing, I don't smoke. Even if I did, it would not change any of the facts I've linked to. Why should it matter if I'm telling the truth and I can prove it? No, I said in controlled doses it's safer than nicotine. With regular...

    Defending a belief is one thing, it can be done with facts, defending an opinion is another thing entirely, which are you doing? Ask yourself why you believe what you do. If you want proof that Alcoholism is genetic, there isn't any, but the huge majority of what we know indicates it is...

    October 4th, 2005 -- what are you getting this week?

    Probly pick up Cinderella while it's on sale, same for the new 2-disc of The Fly. (There's a couple of movies that go together!) Already picked up a couple movies used (again) I just can't turn down cheap stuff! Picked up Layer Cake, Audition and Schultze Gets the Blues. (3 for $20, damn you...

    Star Wars... again.

    I know he has not interest in releasing them, but he also knows they would sell. I'm just waiting for his greed to surpass his messed up version of 'artistic integrity' enough that he'll release them. His official argument as far as I've heard is that the S.E. versions are the way he would have...

    Star Wars... again.

    I considered buying this for a moment, until I realized that it's still the "Special Edition" version that was released on dvd last year, not the true Original Trilogy... when will Han shoot first!

    Family Guy Vol. 3 Artwork

    Plus, it's not like they will always be on so much. I buy them because I like them and I know I'm going to watch them again and again, and I don't always want to sit down and watch whatever one happens to be on tv and sit through commercials. Also I know I've missed several episodes in the new...

    Wal-Mart Sucks

    The Hastings in my area started putting all their used dvds/cds either in plastic cases that you need a key to open or in sealed plastic bags that are a huge pain to get open even after you've bought them :mad: I used to but a ton of dvds there used because I could be sure of getting a brand new...

    September 20th, 2005 -- what are you getting this week?

    Well, I noticed that the first disc of Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex - the Second Gig (that's a mouthfull) is getting released today, but since I still have 4 volumes of season 1 left to buy I'll probably skip it. Plus I found some great deals on used dvds, so I spent my weekly...

    Those ill-fated purchases...

    I bought Leon and the Fifth Element superbits like 2 DAYS before the special editions were announced :( I've also bought some dvds the day they came out for $15 or $18 that I later found in the $5.50 bin at Wal-Mart or 3 for $20 at BestBuy There's a new version of FLCL coming out?
