You're exactly the same as me. I have carrier bags of them all around my room because there is no more space

The film 'Colin' you bought was notorious because, it's makers claImed it only Cost £40 (thats not a typing error!) to make!!! I understand it's quite a dreadful film.

The dwarves were admittedly entertaining, even if the way they did it screwed over real dwarf actors who make their bread and butter from this kind of thing, and charlize theron was as good as always, I just thought the script was pretty dreadful and the film was unremarkable in every other way.

I also thought the cinematography in twighlight was excellent but i'd never buy the movie.

Colin's not all that bad, the £40 to make is 'technically true' but its also a bit of a cheat. They got the services of a hollywood level make-up artist for free using connections in the industry, so its not the sort of thing another film-maker could pull off even with talent. The time they managed to blag would probably cost anyone else a few grand at least.

Colin. Sorry, I love no-budget films. But half of the 90 minute running time was badly framed camcorder shots of the concrete ground. Or it felt like it. I watched most of it with one finger on fast forward and it still dragged. And even then -- no, it wasn't shot on a £40 budget. Some distributors will try and peddle that lie to excuse the fact the product isn't that good. Nice try, though. It's not the worst I've seen. But that's like saying I've had worst kidnappers. If it was a ten minute short it would have been fine.

Back on topic:

Django Kill
Twelve Monkeys (blu)

Never said it was perfect, but theres a few good bits in the movie which stopped me from hating it outright, plus I thought the central idea was solid, just not executed as well as it could have been.

And you just got a spell on the naughty step.
And this doesn't redeem you.

Lol!

Just checked out the JAWS steelbook.

Looks amazing, though still not as good as seeing it on the big screen. (more to do with screen size than differences in pq)

DREADFUL menu screen, really very poor. Also irritatingly it's getting re-issued soon in a mediabook! :mmph:

Clearly distributors dont want people buying stuff day of release anymore.
