I just got this message from a friend...

I have a gift for you it's true.
What it is you haven't a clue.
What about hints asks you?
Not gonna happen boo hoo.


I have a feeling I will be getting tortured like crazy for a while till I get this gift. The last time I got a poem like this one I ended up with a new laptop computer. I don't expect anything as extravagant as that this time, but it definitely has my curiosity going in hyper-drive. Maybe I will get another poem here soon to help me out some. At the very least let me know about how long before I will see this surprise gift!

was  told it is nothing special... just a movie. Just wanted a different way to play around with me a bit about it.

The Bucket List
| Year: 2007 | 97 Min.| IMDb | Trailer/Intro

You only live once, so why not go out in style? That's what two cancer-ward roommates, an irascible billionaire (Jack Nicholson) and a scholarly mechanic (Morgan Freeman), decide when they get the bad news. They compose a bucket list — things to do before you kick the bucket — and head off for the around-the-world adventure of their lives. Sky-dive? Check. Power a Shelby Mustang around a racetrack? Check. Gaze at the Great Pyramid of Khufu? Check. Discover the joy in their lives before it's too late? Check!

Under the nimble direction of Rob Reiner, the two great stars provide the heart and soul, wit and wiles of this inspired salute to life that proves that the best time of all is right now.


Nip/Tuck: The Complete First Season
| Year: 2003 | 638 Min.| IMDb | Trailer/Intro

Beauty, the saying goes, is only skin deep. The beauty of Nip/Tuck is that it goes deeper, laying bare the complexities and fragile natures often found in patients seeking cosmetic surgery. Dylan Walsh and Julian McMahon portray hotshot Miami South Beach plastic surgeons who are themselves in full-blown midlife crises as they confront career, family and romance problems. The series' cutting-edge stories range from funny to suspenseful to uncommonly powerful. The surgeries are graphically bold. The sexuality is rampant. Presented here in 13 first-season episodes on 5 discs and featuring compelling extras, the highly praised Nip/Tuck is a prescription for entertainment unlike anything you've ever seen.

EPISODES:

1.  Pilot
2.  Mandi/Randi
3.  Nanette Babcock
4.  Sophia Lopez
5.  Kurt Dempsey
6.  Megan O'Hara
7.  Cliff Mantegna

After several days of trying to decipher many hard clues... I found out a friend will be giving me...

Clash of the Titans
| Year: 2010 | 106 Min.| IMDb | Trailer/Intro

In Clash of the Titans, the ultimate struggle to power pits man against kings and kings against gods. But the war between the gods themselves could destroy the world. Born of a god but raised a man, Perseus (Sam Worthington) is helpless to save his family from Hades (Ralph Fiennes), vengeful god of the underworld. With nothing to lose, Perseus volunteers to lead a dangerous mission to defeat Hades before he can sieze power from Zeus (Liam Neeson) and unleash hell on earth. Battling unholy demons and fearsome beasts, Perseus and his warriors will only survive if Perseus accepts his power as a god, defies fate, and creates his own destiny.

I think you should have someone video tape you while you watch Fiddler on the Roof, that might be more fun to watch than the movie.

The Kids in the Hall: Complete Season 1
| Year: 1989 | 496 Min.| IMDb | Trailer/Intro

Are extraterrestrials dull? Who's gay in Hollywood? And how about that salty ham?

From romantically challenged cabbage heads to serial head crushing, five men from Canada, who were occasionally five women, turned sketch comedy into a bizarre, irreverent and always hilarious weekly showcase of side-splitting unpredictability.

With a brilliant knack for turning the mundane into the surreal, and a dangerous willingness to explore the darker sides of comedy, all 20 episodes from the debut season of the KIDS IN THE HALL are collected here – by popular demand – on DVD and for the first time ever.


The Kids in the Hall: Complete Season 2
| Year: 1990 | 471 Min.| IMDb | Trailer/Intro

Populating their realm with such uniquely bizarre creations as the Chicken Lady, Cabbage Head, and Mr. Heavyfoot, The Kids in the Hall took aim at everything from corporate culture to drug culture and sexism to suburban angst, crafting one of sketch comedy's most innovative and influential shows.

Smartly twisting the conventions of mainstream comedy, the complete, acclaimed second season of The Kids in the Hall crackles with farcical brilliance-collected here on DVD for overwhelming demand.

never seen this show before. Looking forward to checking it out.  :)

I found out I will be getting a DVD of Some Like It Hot. This will be my first Marilyn Monroe film in my collection. The release I am getting don't seem to be in the database going by the info I have.

It is a DVD... and has either a slip cover or faceplate just like this blu-ray release...



Does anyone here know which DVD release is under the above slip cover/faceplate?
