I moaned about a comment I saw on Facebook, which has really, really annoyed me, which said people who don't care 'clearly have no respect for Fulci's work. Shame on you'

I have a lot ****ing respect for his work. I also have more important things to worry about than a faulty ****ing blu-ray. Shame on me for having real problems.

Totally. The way I see it if people want it to be rectified and are bothered then that's up to them. If people don't care then that's up to them too. People not being bothered doesn't matter anyway since those who are bothered are able to get their disc fixed.

Does anyone know where I can get a cheap, but good BluRay external player that is compatible with a Macbook?. Heck is there even any free mac Blu ray software

It's definitely something You Arrow


I'm not sending my copies in until I've had confirmation that they're a) arriving to the right addresses and b) are actually fixed and faultless

I bought one of these recently - LG BP40NS20 External Blu-ray Burner: Find and buy cheap CD and DVD Burners with Shopping.com UK.

Works on my '09 Mac Pro. I don't really watch blu ray on the computer though as I use the drive for burning authored discs so not sure about playback software. Toast video player will play them but it's a bit awkward.

Hmmm - so did Trading Standards and solicitors become involved?

And what about those who DID pay £5 for a replacement? Presumably they will get their money refunded

A lot of people on both sides of this kerfuffle have said a lot of shit. I'm glad I have Cult-Labs, because what has been displayed on the Facebook page is not what I want from a horror community.
Granted, some of you are pricks (), but at least the majority are articulate pricks and I can see their arguments.

At the end of the day - those that are bothered can now receive a replacement. Those that aren't bothered can continue with their life. I do find it ironic that many took to the internet to tell those who were angry about the missing footage to "get a life".

Personally, I wasn't especially concerned with the missing footage. I was concerned with how Arrow went about things though, small company or not they need to be called out on their bullshit.
