What Have You Bought Recently?

I forgot this. My dvd from Carlton somehow got itself scratched in between viewings. When i wanted to watch it the other night it kept sticking so i had to replace it. This has far superior cover art.

I can't wait. I'd watch it tonight but. Well, obvious reasons really it won't get seen for a couple of weeks.

I had/have it on US dvd and the picture is crap. I've always had to change the aspect ratio to an odd letterbox for a start.

I've been wanting to upgrade my DVD to the Blu-ray for the last five years or so but haven't prioritised enough to buy it yet. I hope to remedy that in the next fortnight in time for the D-Day anniversary.

As much as I love 'The Evil Dead', I'm staying away from the Blu-Ray and sticking to the DVD when I watch it

As I said in my review of the film for last years Halloween movie viewings:

Mind you, the picture is so clear, it does tend to show up the short-comings in the prosthetic make-up effects. The film is still as sensationally scary and the gore is as unmatched as it was back in the day on VHS. A true horror classic

It's like listening to Venom or Bathory on scratched and Low-Def vinyl and then listening on them pristine Hi-Def CD

Some things are meant to be rough and ready!

Picked these up while out and about from vaccine centre, nice to see our Poundland had Bond on their shelves.

You weren't wrong about Dr. No, excellent picture and sound, alot better than the DVDs that were released.

I was wondering about getting Snyder's Justice League...

Thing is i can't remember a thing about Whedon's Justice League so... I know it's basically all new... Might just get the dvd for a tenner instead of maybe wasting money on a blu-ray.
