Topic: What'ya got 2007-2013?

[Jimmy]

There's an excellent Hammer 21 disc boxset, you know.

I've already seen it on Amazon and I've placed it in my wishlist. But the problem is the price £54.97 who equals 110.33 $CAN and it's a lot over our limit for no taxes. It means that to import it I've to pay this amount (in today exchange rate):

Cost :    110,33$
Shipping :  6,18$
Adm. cost : 5,00$
Federal Taxes (6%) : 6,62$
Provincial Taxes : 9,36$

Total price : 137,49$

Yes the set seems to be a good mix of movies for what I understand from the review. But, to costly for me right now 

Edit : Imagine now that the package is lost or steal

After work today I went to my favorite local store and picked up a bunch of dvd's.  All blind buys.

I also bought "The departed" but I didn't pay enough attention and mistakenly picked the Fool Screen version so it's gonna end up in my mom's collection who doesn't have a widescreen tv yet.

I really hope that you know that it's the third remake of this film 

1956, 1978 and 1993 respectivelly. The best one is the 1978 remake, the original one is good too. But the 1993 version is really weak

No I didn't.  I didn't read the entire overview so I didn't see that it was a remake of "The Body Snatchers" about which I didn't know there was already 2 remakes which makes it a total of 4 that I have never seen

Can't you just return The Departed? Otherwise, I hope you enjoy In The Heat of the Night. Absolutely wonderful.

I could return it but when I make that mistake I always give them to my mom.  When it becomes expensive enough maybe I'll learn to be careful.

It was a mistake of me to say they were all blind buys, "In the Heat of the Night" was not, I've seen once when I was a boy and again on tv maybe 10 years ago.

I agree that it's a wonderful movie, nothing to do with the british stuff like that "Get Carter" thing that you made me watch

Haven't watched it yet, been too busy lately.  Tonight I'm gonna try watching hockey for the first time since the Canadien vs Nordiques rivalry.  I'm gonna watch "The Long Good Friday" tomorrow or saturday night.  I promise to keep and open mind and write an objective report.

So we try the same thing tonight 
But, I don't think that I will listen the game for too long. I'm can't get interested to the Canadien, I've hate them too much.

I miss the good old time

I've seen it as cheap as £32.

This one was on my wishling since a long time, so finally I've ordered it last weekend. I have buy too much mainstream movies recently and I need my fix of weird stuff. I think that I will like this series : the warning is sure pasted everywhere on the box 

This is the first time that I've hesitated to make a "What'ya got?" post, because of the dvd genre. But, finally I've said to myself : What the hell we are all adult here and nobody will judge you 

I love this seller even if my package worth more than 50 $us, the value on the declaration is only marked at 12,50$

I have buy too much mainstream movies recently [...]

Yeah, I was wondering what's going on


I myself picked these up from a friend, who had bought these for me in Hong Kong in February:

 


Yep, that is two recommendations I followed right from this board. Ebola Syndrome as recommended by Jimmy and The Girl Who Leapt Through Time as recommended by Tom. I'll post my thoughts in the related threads; "The Girl..." will be watched soon, not sure yet if "Ebola..." fits in this month's marathon.

Don't ask me what I was thinking when I wrote this but I can't watch the movie this week-end because
