I just finished a comedy night ...

ZACK AND MIRI MAKE A PORNO has to be one of the funniest, most charming and overall awesome films I've ever seen. Especially the "Star Whores" bit was hilarious, the movie was just fun throughout.

HAROLD AND KUMAR - ESCAPE FROM GUANTANAMO BAY ... well, I haven't seen anything from H&K before but since Kal Penn has been serving duty under Dr. House and now under Barack Obama (what a comparison :D) I wanted to check out his older stuff. And I was pleasantly surprised. The jokes are flat, of course, but the characters are nice and the film's just plain entertaining.

Plus, both Blu-rays (EIV) are really good so I'd recommend both.

Wake Of Death

Jean Claude puts in an astonshing performance in this one, his acting is first class, which came as a real surprise! Recommended.

Blu Ray of POLICE STORY, been a while since I've seen this, I can't believe it's 25 years old already!

btw, it's got quite a lot of grain for all you grain lovers out there ;)

What region zone is this Blu-ray?

Just ordered a few more BD's. Piranha, Humanoids From The Deep and John Rambo: Extended Edition (yes that's what I called it, since the film on the disc uses this title :woot:). I'm a little annoyed at Lionsgate for not displying the full title on the cover though, but I guess we can't have everything....and the less said about the god-awful artwork the better. They really should have used the fantastic theatrical poster with Rambo standing in the rain holding his knife.

Read some reviews and it sounds like my kind of film. Anyone here seen it?

Hello Loops, this is a great film and would make an excellent double bill with "The Frightened Woman" for an evening of pop art smut.

Finally decided to pre-order the Psycho steelbook, plus have Arrow's Inferno and Tenebrae on pre-order too. ;)

Please tell me what you think of the Extended Cut. I'm gonna get it sometime, but if the cut just includes the deleted scenes from the old Blu-ray I can wait until it drops below 10$ ... if it's good however, I'd have to get it now. 8)

From the review I read, it does contain at least one of the deleted scenes (Rambo tending to Sarah's foot after she's rescued). The major changes are...

The film is titled JOHN RAMBO.
There are a few more brutal real images at the beginning newsfeed.
There’s more snake catching and more playing around with the snakes as Johnny bags them up.
There’s more of Julie Benz bugging Rambo to take her group on a boat ride into Burma. In fact, there’s a whole new scene of her begging him. The law of 3!
There’s a longer night scene in a village that’s being raided.
They completely changed the “what is” speech on the boat that takes place in the rain between Julia’s character and Rambo. John talks about politics and war and admits he wasted his life on war. That’s a true statement I guess.
There are longer conversations to be had between the missionaries and Rambo on the boat ride to Burma.
There’s a slight change to the pirate shootout scene.
There’s a longer goodbye scene between John and Sarah when drops them off in Burma.
There are new flashback scenes when Rambo is burning the pirate ship.
The raid on the village where the missionaries are starts out quicker.
There is a new scene where the missionaries are at the prison camp. They talk about the treatment and torture of the prisoners.
After the pastor told Rambo about the missing prisoners, the hammer scene is a bit different. Instead of Rambo’s voiceover where he says, “war is in his blood and all…” you hear a voiceover from the pastor.
There are some slight variances in the rescue of the missionaries..
After the rescue, Rambo now notices that Sarah hurt her foot. He wraps it up for her.
And last but not least, there is a longer goodbye scene between Rambo and Sarah at the conclusion of the brutal warfare resolution of Act III.

And there are smaller differences that the reviewer said he couldn't be bothered writing down!
