The DVD purchase thread

[Planet-man]

I enjoyed it extremely when it came out and have been meaning to buy it for a couple years. Getting the Director's Cut on Blu-Ray for like $2 was a no-brainer.

The animation put me off for one. I just like the one line, "I Am Beowulf." It just seems like 300 ripped it off and made it their own with "This is Sparta!"

300 came out in 2006, Beowulf came out in 2007.

300 came out in 2006, Beowulf came out in 2007.

300 came out in 2007.

 

[Langsta]

300 came out in 2007.

Either way, 300 came out before Beowulf did.

 

[Jaggyd]

Either way, 300 came out before Beowulf did.

Yes, and in about 7 months they VA'ed and animated "I am Beowulf" explicitly to rip off 300. </sarcasm>

Blockbuster is either going out of business slowly up here in Canada or just hugely downsizing to avoid going completely under, but either way, they're having massive sales.

Today I bought the following DVDs for $33:
Top Gun
T2
The Social Network
RED
The Blindside

I just finished watching RED. it's fantastic! I'm glad I picked it up.

 

[thee great one]

I hated Beowulf.

The Shield S1-7

 

[Bass]

Nice. It's a good show.

 

[ProjectX2]

I got tired of renting it one disc at a time and decided to buy it all at once since it was so cheap.

I'm excited to watch a Shawn Ryan show that wasn't cancelled.

 

[Bass]

Yeah – THE SHIELD has a good ending that slowly comes together over the last couple of seasons.

 

[ProjectX2]

You need to watch Terriers.

Have you seen Breaking Bad S3 yet?

 

[Bass]

TERRIERS isn't available over here, but I'll try to download a copy.

BREAKING BAD season 3 is not available on dvd over here yet, either. Neither is the second season of IN TREATMENT which is annoying. :?

 

[ProjectX2]

Stupid England. You need to catch up somehow before S4 starts!

I also just ordered Fringe S1-2, Parks and Recreation S1-2, Party Down S1-2 and Prison Break S4. I am so poor now.

 

[ProjectX2]

Children of Men and Unforgiven on Blu-ray

 

[Bass]

Not seen CHILDREN OF MEN, but UNFORGIVEN is wonderful.

 

[ultimatedjf]

Bass, you must get on that. CHILDREN OF MEN is one of the very best movies of the 2000s.

 

[Planet-man]

Bass, you must get on that. CHILDREN OF MEN is one of the very best movies of the 2000s.

Meh.

 

[J. Agamemnon]

Meh.

.......yeeeaaah, I agree. You sure you just didn't get caught in the moment, Dan?

I also have a buttload of dvd's I'm itching to get rid of. I'll post a list if anyone is interested.

 

[Ice]

DJF is right. Children of Men is a superb film.
