Usual Suspects
I received The Usual Suspects special edition (yes, I already had the regular version), and the first season set of The West Wing. I’ve already watched five episodes of the WW - I love it.
I may end up getting the first season of Law and Order with some returns credit as well.
And Glory, Ghost World is great. It cemented my notion that Thora Birch is as capable an actress as she is smokin’ hot.
I got X-Men 2 Finding Nemo Futurama Season One Futurama Season Two
and Fellowship of the Ring extended edition with the bookends and everything. (I had already bought the DVDs by themselves a while back, but found myself jonesing for the bookends.)
Indiana Jones Box Set - Very cool! Spooks - Season One - Better known in the USA as MI-5 on the A&E Channel! Fight Club - 2 disc edition. still can’t find the outtakes! Speed - 2 disc edition. Die Hard - Hardly any special features, I hate that! The Simpsons - Season Three - have season one and two! just waiting for the rest now!
In the sales however I managed to get…
True Lies In The Line Of Fire - Collectors Edition Air Force One LOTR - The Two Towers - Extended 4 Disc Edition - HALF PRICE! £17.99 ($31.95 - US) Although only $25 on Amazon.com sale! Ultimate Force: Season One - British SAS Drama Series Bowling For Columbine - Special two disc edition Austin Powers (One) - Have the other two so why not? Twelve Monkeys Sleepy Hollow Depp is great! Top Gun - Only £5! ($8.88 - US) Chicken Run - The Hunt For Red October American Beauty - Spacy is the best! Antz - Billy Elliot - Always doing my bit for the British Film Industry! Citizen Kane - Haven’t even seen it, but it is meant to be good, right?
Have most of those on Video and am trying to replace all my vids with DVD’s (no doubt as soon as I have done this a new format will be launched!) Oh and I saved over £160 ($284 - US) by waiting for the sale!
Still have many more on my list though, including… Pulp Fiction, Interview With The Vampire, Cast Away, Raging Bull, Taxi Driver, Lawrence Of Arabia, One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest, Spartacus, Gandhi, all the Frasier and Friends box sets (and Simpsons), The West Wing, The Office Seasons One and Two (and Christmas shows!), X Men Two etc etc etc etc SO MANY DVD’s AND SO LITTLE TIME!
And when, I might ask is there gunna be a damn Region 2 edition of Schindler’s List! I have been waiting for bloody ages! (had to get that off my chest!)
