The series looked great and I enjoyed it very much indeed, but things like that make a release less enjoyable for me.

I know what you mean. I think they did the same with the first (maybe second as well) season of Tales from the Crypt on dvd. Only the first episode on each disc had the opening sequence and the last episode had the closing credits (if I recall).

I can see the point as i always fast forward through opening credits after the first episode unless i love the credits / music (Hi Smallville and Angel) but i also want the option of fast forwarding and not have it taken away from me by studio execs that think they know best.

Picked up a Cloverfield blu-ray from Cex in exchange for a one pound Cex voucher (that voucher has been living in my wallet for quite some time). Since the film has intentional video glitches, it's gonna be pretty much impossible to determine whether or not my secondhand copy is in perfect working order. btw Kinda funny that a film like this was released on 4K UHD format.

Nothing really 'new' in this batch. 1 straight replacement and 3 upgrades.

Not films, we been into town and a shop near us is having a sale, it's one of those type shops that sells different / unusual stuff or good quality items but as usual are on the bit dear / expensive side, we be moving soon and saw these paintings and thought they be lovely in the new hallway, can't see them perfectly because they've been wrapped, cost £200 each tho.

The other picture shows some other stuff we've bought from there in the past, just to indicate type stuff it sells.

Was it taking place in a sandstorm?

No, just the light on my phone kicked off, for all those who can't see it clearly they are silverhide, battle for Algiers and what we do in the shadows.

The first picture is so realistic...it needs it's own litter tray!
