While this is a great idea, I think Steve's right. The shipping costs could prove too much for a small company like Shameless and so would make it unworkable.

Only thing we than need is ANY movie to carry a 21 on it's spine. Collection complete.
Like Steve said, there are no stupid ideas and this one could have the potential to work. The decision would be ultimately up to Shameless but I know they will definitely have a look at this thread to see what fans want.

Thank you very muchly, Rhodes - this is much appreciated!

I think I could do with that too. I found myself berating my brother the other night when he put the Euro sexploitation trilogy back in the wrong order. Took a great deal of self-control but I left them out of order for a whole 24 hours before I caved!
