Part of my Christmas bonus (that didn't go into savings, Scotch, or add'l Kiva loans) went to the Deadwood box set, on sale at Best Buy this week. Plus, I had some RewardZone certificates to help defray the cost.

This show had better live up to its reputation!

It absolutely is, in fact the only time my expectations have been more than met in television.

Santa was good to me this year, and got me the Herzog/Kinski Collection.

Santa gave me The Dark Knight.

Yeeeeeeeeee

I got a $50 K-Mart gift card for my birthday & I finally got to use it today....

The Muppet Show (series 3) {$32}
Robot Chicken Star Wars {$13}
Stakeout {coz it was only $10}

Feel the love.

Used some of my Chrimbo money to pick up The Definitive Ealing Collection for £45 from soon-to-be-defunct Zavvi today. Quids in.

Resident Evil: Degeneration

I forgot this just came out. Lucky I saw it on the shelves.

One of the local CD/video stores is going out of business, so everything is 50% off... I stopped there again, tonight, on the way home from work, primarily to pick up a used copy of Homicide: Life on the Streets Season Five (for $7.50), but also grabbed Black Sheep while I was at it.

Complete Sopranos Definitive Edition

That's all the Chrimbo money gone, but it's still cheaper to buy that than go and buy the boxsets that I don't have.

Hellboy II on BluRay, just to see if shiny HD is all it's cracked up to be.

It's really pretty.

Shiny HD isn't always what it's cracked up to be, but when it is, it's glorious.

Nick Frost: Danger! Incoming Attack for a measily Au$16!

Let me know what you think, I've got that sitting on my PS3 and still havent gotten round to watching it.

I thought it was pretty good and definitely better than the live-action movies. The only things that annoyed me were the not-so-great voice-to-lip syncs and Leon and Claire not having much screen time together that I had hoped for.

Leon acted different from he did in Resident Evil 4 and this is supposed to take place between RE4 and RE5. I wonder what's up with the mood change?
I also watched the trailers in the bonus section for RE5 and I will definitely be getting the game now for sure! The trailer where Chris and Wesker fight was AWESOME!

One more thing. I read online that there is a trailer where there is a grave with Jill's name on it. Is that true? I hope not.

I got it from Nick for Christmas, but haven't gotten around to looking for it yet.

Guess who picked up The Dark Knight on Blu-ray for $10.91?

Thank you, Borders sale and e-Rewards, for the discounts.

As a lovely and surprising Christmas gift from my best friend I got the original series of The Singing Detective on dvd.

Thanks to finding a £2.50 voucher on my way out of Sainsburys yesterday I managed to get Hot Fuzz for the princely sum of 42p.

I got Stardust (despite not having seen it yet, but I keep reading good things about it) for about $12.

Feel the love.

Like a lot of people, I crammed into Zavvi to pick over the bones and picked up:
Iron Man 2-disc edition
Pirates of the Caribbean box-set
Dawn of the Dead (the irony of this is not lost on me)

Stop Making Sense
The Notorious Bettie Page
The Straight Story
Days of Heaven

You won't regret it!

I think I might watch it tonight now...

King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters
Man on Wire

Both from hmv.com as Man on Wire's going cheap(sih) and King of Kong is a fiver when it's £20 in the store.

I've been looking to pick The Mighty Boosh up for a while. I've caught a few episodes here and there, by various means, and have liked what I've seen.

So, when I saw that HMV has the 6-disc, three-season box set on sale for £13.99 (as opposed to the 7-disc, three-season box set for £25.99 and the two-season box set for £18.99), I figured it was now or never. With the delivery, it came to the equivalent of $27.02. That's not so bad, considering the price you'd have to pay on Amazon or eBay for a used copy.

Of course, it's back-ordered, but they claim they'll get more within a week...

Oliver & Company

Yay! It wasn't too expensive either (some Disney DVDs are over £20, even on the internet).

^ Still waiting for it, even though I ordered it on Sunday and stuff from HMV usually arrives quickly. *Grumbles*

Anyway, today I bought:

The Orphanage
I'm Not There
Memento

Yay to DVDs!

Hooray for cheap HBO DVDs!

Picked up The Corner and Walkout for $3 apiece.

Hmmm... At that price I might have to buy it myself.
Behold the shininess of it:

...I should really get a job first though.

Was in town and picked up some cheap DVDs:

The Invasion, Earthshock and The Dalek Invasion of Earth (classic Doctor Who stories), and The League of Gentlemen's Box of Delights (basically everything they've done outside the TV show - live show, movie and panto).

Somers Town- to complete my Shane Meadows collection.

I plan to get all of these over the next few months or so, but I'm stuck on which one to get first...

Dylan Moran: The Live Collection
Derren Brown: Something Wicked This Way Comes [2006]
Black Books Complete Box Set

???
GAH!

Beetlejuice - Just as good after twenty years!

Mean Girls

Black Books. I laugh my ass of everytime I watch it.

I second Crutch.

I'm not keen on Black Books. I don't like anything, do I?

You don't even know The Wizard of Oz is a remake! Or should I say "kow"...

Derren Brown - The Specials
Derren Brown - Trick Of The Mind Vol 1
Derren Brown - Trick Of The Mind Vol 2

So, I'm completely sucked up into the Derren Brown thing now..
I'm just wondering..what about all the other Derren Brown dvds out there. Is there anyone who want to direct me to my next purchase?

Oh yes, I did buy his book too..

Do it.
Inside Your Mind
Something Wicked This Way Comes

Thanks!

Yes, I'm wondering about those...especially Inside your mind...when was it filmed? It seems that a lot of the stuff on these dvds are from Tricks of the mind dvds..or am I mistaken?

What do you think of Something Wicked this way comes?

Looking forward to this one:

Be Kind Rewind
The Golden Compass

I don't actually have either, but saw Something Wicked on TV; It's an excellent live show.

Ah, right!
Will buy everything with Derren in it eventually..just have to settle down a bit now. Been net shopping a bit too much the last days!

No Country For Old Men
Life of Brian: The Immaculate Edition

No Country for Old Men
Tideland - I so want to watch this movie. I once almost did, but the accent of the girl is so hard to understand that I gave up after 45 seconds. Now I can watch the thing in German and will hopefully love it.

This, for a criminal $70:





I can't get over how awesome it is.

Holy shit, Region 2? If they released that in the US I'm going to be annoyed. (Although I shouldn't bitch, I got the full series box set for free)

Region 4. Had a fantastic Whiskey Blues Poker night last night. I'm going to be enjoying this for quite a while to come.

The second DVD store I regularly haunt seems to be putting aside for me any Criterion DVDs they get hold of.

Today I got Slacker, Tunes of Glory and Breathless (A bout de souffle)
