I did mention the spines to Second Sight. They're not required, so I don't know why some still put them on.

The Lewis collection just turned up from Amazon. Pleased to get the fourteen films for £24.

J Harker 31st December 2021 03:09 PM

The H.G.Lewis films have never appealed to me at all. The Holiday however is a classic.

Agree about The Holiday. Will be watching it tonight finishing just before midnight.

The Lewis films are pretty hit and miss with me to be honest. 2000 Maniacs is great, whilst Color Me Blood Red is crap. However most of the set i haven't seen so it will be fun (hopefully) to rediscover his films on Blu-ray. Plus at under two quid a film it seemed like a bargain not to be missed.

I’m giving this one another chance, going into it with the knowledge that it’s not ‘great’. Will hopefully like it better. From CEX, original dual format with the booklet, my old copy didn’t have it!

Thanks. I finished The Holiday with the real life Big Ben clock counting down at 42 seconds. Good timing. :lol:

Picked this BATTLESTAR GALACTICA complete series Blu ray box set up from CEX today. 20 discs, mint condition. I had a little credit so got it for £11.00!

Attachment 238400

And from HMV..

Attachment 238401 Attachment 238402

** Be aware that there are now two BFI Blu rays of INVASION OF THE BODY SNATCHERS out now. One with booklet £17.99, one without £14.99.

Demdike@Cult Labs 3rd January 2022 05:36 PM

Any idea why Battlestar is rated 18, Dave?

I have the same set on dvd (Never watched it though) and it's rated 15.

The rated 18 content is in series 3, it’s packed away so I can’t check but it might be something to do with Razor.

Razor is in the set i have though.

Must be something to do with something else. Edit - Yes they rated the Blu-ray an 18 because of the suicide bombings in season 3. Although the dvd remains 15.

Dave Boy 4th January 2022 08:25 AM

Ahh, I thought it might have been because of the extended unrated cuts in the set.

Justin101 4th January 2022 08:41 AM

I’ve got a watch pile taller than me but I fancy a BSG rewatch now.

Dave Boy 4th January 2022 08:54 AM

Yeah, I have not seen the series since it first aired so looking forward to watching it again. I went to all the UK conventions and met Katie Sackoff, Jeremy Bamber, Tricia Helfer etc..

Ditto – I've only seen it once and really think it needs a second viewing.

Purchases from the last week or two, mostly from the Christmas/Boxing Day/New Year sales.

Zodiac, District 9, Scream, Batman Forever, and Whiplash are upgrades. All the others are new titles to my collection.

I looked further into this because it made no sense that that the DVD would be rated differently if it was to do with the episode. In actuality, a deleted scene for the first episode includes a closeup of someone (won't say who for spoilers) attempting suicide with a blade. BBFC said in a statement when somebody questioned the BD being rated higher than the DVD that any reference to suicide that shows how to imitate the act is automatically an 18 cert. That deleted scene isn't included on the DVD but it's on the BD set.

The episode is Season Three, Episode One "Occupation"

Scene in question (don't click if you haven't seen the show.)

CEX

'A Taste Of Honey' - BFI Blu-Ray - Price marked at £5:00, but had been reduced to £3:50...so that was good!


J Harker 12th January 2022 01:31 PM

Just dropped into Sainsburies on my way back from work. Its a larger superstore down in Newport and sadly since I was last in there pre Christmas they have now completely dropped their physical media section. 2 large aisles of dvd/blus, cd's and video games all gone.

The one i go still has physical media. Or it did last week. However another one got rid of it all last August when an Argos moved in.

The one that still sells discs has an Argos two minutes away so perhaps stores like that will keep discs. I don't know.

Either way they barely get replacement stock in. It's been like that for months now.
