Cult Labs - What Have You Bought Recently?

Had a half day off work today, so popped into Asda and picked up the lovely steelbook of Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy. Not often you see a BD steelbook in Asda.

Didn't have it in my (admittedly poorly stocked) Morrisons when I looked today.

I seem to recall reading a review that said it was a shoddy pan-and-scan job sourced from VHS.

Good old Mya.:rolleyes:

Got a tax refund of just over £900 and, while it's pretty much going on course fees for my MA, I treated myself to the following:

Just had a look at the amazon page again and you're right. Didn't notice the option at the side to buy from amazon itself. I wouldn't have noticed that if you didn't tell me. Cheers, mate.

No worries!

I think Morrisons is the worst stocked supermarket for BD's and dvds. Not surprised they didn't have it.

I'm thinking of heading to Glasgow tomorrow and picking up another copy of the Drive steelbook. With the way it went OOP online even before it was released, i'll sell it on for a small profit after it sells out instore. :)

I live in a small Devon market town and Morrisons is all we have apart from 2 Co-ops. Nearest Tesco is more than ten miles from here!

Still, I'd take paltry entertainment selections in supermarkets over living in London any day ;)

Good idea about Drive too. I'd pre-ordered ten anticipating a quick oop but ended up bottling it and canceling about two weeks before it was announced HMV had sold out pre-street.

Also thinking about a few extra copys of some of the Arrow slipcase BD's since they'll be OOP before we know it.

The DVD drive in my computer doesn't even recognize the DVD, so I wasn't able to make screencaps.

The picture quality is quite horrible though, but just about qualifies for 'watchable'. I'd give it a 5/10. Furthermore it's in 4:3 and seems to have been cropped on the sides. The Italian audio is OK though, I'd give it a 7/10, and the English subtitles seem fine as well.

No extras on the disc.
