The Big Bang Theory Seasons 4-5
Seinfeld Season 3
Three's Company Season 7

Heyy, welcome back, dude!

Ordered this:



The description reads:  "This is a former rental. It has never been viewed." 

I guess I watch some pretty unpopular movies apparently 

[fulci420]

Well, I spent the last of my Christmas gift (aka: a $30 FYE card) on something I am going to be watching, re-watching and re-enjoying for quite a long time.

What is it?

Don't be shocked, but it's...

...

The 3-disc Criterion Collection of Terry Gilliam's masterpiece Brazil.



You want extras?  Oh, I'll give ya your extras:

*Interview with co-writer Tom Stoppard

*Production and publicity stills

*"The Production Notebook", screenwriters Tom Stoppard and Charles McKeown illuminate the script's development through 3 drafts and 3 treatments. Production designer Norman Garwood displays his design's for Brazil's unique sets. Costume designer 'James Acheson'  explores the couture of fashion, fantasy and fascism. Terry Gilliam's original dream sequences, in storyboards, include hundreds of shots that never made it to the screen.

*Composer Michael Kamen unveils the sources of his score. A study of the special effects includes footage of unused effects

*"What Is Brazil?", Rob Hedden's rare 30 minute witty on-set documentary features Terry Gilliam and other key members of the cast and crew

*"The Battle of Brazil: A Video History", Battle of "Brazil" author Jack Mathews reassembles the players in the famous battle of "Brazil"'s US Release in this original 1996 Criterion documentary. Terry Gilliam, producer Arnon Milchan, and several studio executives close the book on one of the noisiest, most unusual, and most instructive controversies in Hollywood history

*"Brazil: The Love Conquers All Version", with audio annotation by 'David Morgan' , this 94 minute version of "Brazil", rearranged in the hope of making the film commercial, stands as a fascinating document of the power of editing to change a movie

So yeah, I'll be watching this one for awhile.... 

[JJ80]

"The Peter Cushing Collection": "And Now The Screaming Starts";
                                           "Asylum;
                                           "Flesh And The Fiends";
                                           "The Hellfire Club".

[Jack]

I thought I was ordering the version with 32 additional minutes, but then I realized that Amazon just mixes the reviews of all the versions (regular and director's cut) together.  Grrrr.  Oh well, it was three bucks.

[TheDope]

Well, I tried out Amazon (thanks to a $25 gift card) and am slowly getting in my booty - a package at a time.

Today I received the first two parts: Superman II (purchased for $0.01)



and Drive-In Cult Classics Volume 2 (purchased for $1.17)



...though the tax can be a pain on these, the prices are still worth it!

More to come...

Got this a long time ago but the DVD was defective, so now I'm trying again.



Fun little movie.

[ChaosTheory]

Picked up at the rummage sale this morning:


for $5




for $2 each

[Jack]

I was kind of watching this on-and-off on SyFy today so I decided to buy it.  Pretty good movie.

[Jack]

Few more I ordered.  Think that's $6 worth of DVD's and $9 worth of shipping.
