Complete list

Now might be a good time to pick up some things you missed last week.

New:

I'm betting on this getting an extended edition in the near future, since Ridley Scott has said publicly that he doesn't like this cut of the movie.

Also:

(if you want respect, you've got to take it)

Television includes:

Are there any deals around where you can get a discount for seasons 1 and 2 of this together?

Amazon is offering $10 off if you buy season 1 and 2 of Arrested Development together. This is my only purchase this week... I might get Kingdom of Heaven later if I see it cheap.

:lol

 

[Callo Merlose]

When's the new The Warriors dvd coming out? And when's the game coming out?

 

[Prospero]

The Warriors DVD came out last week--I don't know about the game.

 

[robertsan21]

i got this one yesterday

 

[Acrylamid]

Import get!

Are there any deals around where you can get a discount for seasons 1 and 2 of this together?

You can get them at Amazon for $45.98.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

AD season 2 for me. Just a heads up, i believe an extended, deluxe version of Kingdom of Heaven is coming early next year IIRC

 

[MrDaravon]

Best Buy's site is listing South Park Season 6 on sale for 29.99 this week. Sweet.

 

[Matlock]

When's the new The Warriors dvd coming out? And when's the game coming out?

10/17 is the ship date. I'll have a review up by then, hopefully.

 

[Memles]

I won't be picking up this OR AD Season 2, but everyone else damn well should.

 

[Matlock]

I won't be picking up this OR AD Season 2, but everyone else damn well should.

Although AD isn't my cup of tea, what's so special about this show?

 

[Guzim]

Although AD isn't my cup of tea, what's so special about this show?

The cast and the writing.

And

for me

 

[Memles]

Although AD isn't my cup of tea, what's so special about this show?

Veronica Mars managed to successfully blend sharp writing, strong performances, and a strong over-arching mystery storyline into a fantastic season of television.

Veronica Mars Season 2 Thread

There's some discussion there; it's a show that I didn't pick up intially when it aired but ended up catching up on the first five episodes and I was officially hooked.

 

[Matlock]

"Sharp Writing" as spoken by the interweb makes me wary. Guess it's another no-go then.

 

[dtrip]

Got it in the mail today, I guess i'll be having an AD marathon tonight!

 

[Memles]

"Sharp Writing" as spoken by the interweb makes me wary. Guess it's another no-go then.

Is there another term you prefer?

Sharp: Having clear form and detail.

That is the term. Yes, it can be witty, but that's not what I mean. The show manages to provide a fantastic over-arching storyline, strong characterization and some great twists, all without becoming too bogged down in the details.

This is ALL that matters this week (to me):

 

[distantmantra]

 

[ChrisReid]

Oh yeah, I'll get South Park.

 

[Jason]

Here's hoping they fixed that fucking loose disc problem.

 

[Brian Fellows]

Arrested Development and Veronica Mars will be bought

 

[whytemyke]

Unleashed. Yayyy... finally a DVD I feel like buying.

Robertsan.. how'd you get Batman? It's not on DVD yet is it?

 

[distantmantra]

Here's hoping they fixed that fucking loose disc problem.

It was fixed with volume two.

 

[Jason]

Not for me!

 

[distantmantra]

Not for me!

The Right Stuf sent their entire stock of volume two back to Bandai, demanding better cases to hold the discs. They agreed, and now 95% of copies out there are loose free.

 

[Fifty]

Veronica Mars and AD for me....not a bad week at all.

 

[Hitler Stole My Potato]

DEEEEEEEP HUUUUUUUUUUUUURTING
DEEEEEEEP HUUUUUUUUUUUUURTING

:lol

This is the one with the sandstorm, right?

 

[FoneBone]

I really, really, want Arrested Development, but I'll probably wait a month or so until DeepDiscountDVD does their next sale (assuming they keep their schedule). I'm a cheapass.

 

[Matrix]

Veronica Mars and AD for me....not a bad week at all.

Same for me

 

[Escape Goat]

WOOT!!!!!!!

 

[Fowler]

I got this, though the double-disc set (which oddly enough has this boxart).

Also ordered:

 

[Eric Hall]

Buying:
Arrested Development
Unleashed: Unrated

Maybe Buying:
Veronica Mars

 

[robertsan21]

well it is not officially out yet but as i have said many times before i get my DVD´s earlier as i know the guy who owns the store.

DVD films is shipped to shops all around the world up to 2 weeks before the official release date, so when the official release date arrives, the shops has the dvd´s in the store fo people to buy.

its illigal to start selling the dvd´s before the official realease date but as i am a good guy who dont tell i get my dvd´s as fast as he gets them in store.

thats how i got my Lord of the rings,startwars, team america, batman begins DVD´s before anyone else

 

[distantmantra]

its illigal to start selling the dvd´s before the official realease date but as i am a good guy who dont tell i get my dvd´s as fast as he gets them in store.

You're telling the internet. Someone could easily track your IP and possibly figure out the store you got it from.

 

[ohamsie]

Arrested Development and Batman Begins for me.

 

[Ninja Scooter]

Arrested Development and Batman Begins for me.

Batman Begins is 2 weeks away.

 

[Cerebral Palsy]

Arrested Developmet definitely. I'll pick up AD Season 1 with it also. Unleashed was worth seeing once, but I don't want to own it on dvd. I will probably pick up Veronica Mars down the road.

 

[ucdawg12]

 

[jett]

i got this one yesterday

What...it's out already!?

 

[Flynn]

Interesting stuff:

Miike:

Grafitti flick:

French horror. Didn't see it. Heard the dub was terrible:

Aired on IFC:

 

[ManaByte]

"Hondo", Peg... John Wayne's best movie... it only comes on once every 17 years. Oh Peg, please let me watch "Hondo".

 

[ManaByte]

Hondo is only $10 at Amazon, and has a TON of stuff on it:
# Commentary by Leonard Maltin, Frank Thompson (western historian) and Lee Aaker
# A Special Introduction by Leonard Maltin
# The Making of Hondo
# Profile: James Edward Grant
# The Apache
# The John Wayne Stock Company: Ward Bond
# From the Batjac Vaults
# Original Theatrical Trailer
# Batjac Teaser
# Photo Gallery

But it doesn't look like the disc offers the 3D version of the movie, which kind of sucks but at least it's finally getting released.

 

[Duderz]

Ninja Scooter, can you remember where you read that Kingdom of Heaven is getting an extended release next year?

I may have to hold of on buying it if that's true.

 

[Docpan]

Kingdom of Heaven sucked ass.

I'm still ticked about the 6.50 I spent on that ticket.

 

[Error Macro]

Hondo, McLintock!, and South Park Season Six are all must buys for me.

What's the general consensus on Kingdom Of Heaven? Didn't see it theatrically, but I pretty much like all Ridley Scott movies, plus I love history...

 

[sefskillz]

Miike:

I remember the trailer for this being pretty awesome, how'd it turn out?

 

[WrathOfOtaibah]

South Park Season 6

Thats it for me. Which is good since I need to stop spending so much cash for entertainment.

 

[Ash Housewares]

never again will we live in fear of a computer failure trapping us in a supermarket during Hondo

 

[aku:jiki]

French horror. Didn't see it. Heard the dub was terrible:

Don't. It's a piece of shit "shocker" that plays out like a made-for-TV movie that premieres at 4AM on a tuseday. I have no idea why some people loved it so much.

Thanks for the heads up on Bomb the System, though. Hadn't heard of it and now I have to see it.
