I didn't realise they were Region A locked. Although I have a cheap player set to Region A, I would much rather watch them through my PlayStation as it's quieter and has more up-to-date firmware. Region B for me!

I'd love a BD release of The Twilight Zone over here. The US ones are already going for what I class as 'silly money' on Amazon. I've only seen season 3 of the 80's show and a handful of episodes from the original series but would love to catch up on what I've missed.

I wouldn't bank against Deep Discount marking them both down at full price on the customs form either..

Possibly my fave TV programme.

The original is my favourite but I loved most of the 80s revamp. Yet to see the most recent series though.

I like the original series as well but I actually like the 80's series even more.

That means that it's time to start all over again, although thankfully I only have the first three seasons on DVD rather than the whole lot. Even so, it's something I really wouldn't mind double dipping on.

Big fan of the original series here. I quite like some the 80s ones and but I agree with the sentiments of 2002 series.

My issues of it were not only Forrest, but the theme tune was dreadful. I grew up a Korn fan, but this was not Jonathan Davis' finest hour. Has anyone seen the 2002 Eye of the Beholder? It doesn't compare to the original - even the make-up looks worse.

Is there any love for the movie? While flawed, it's not terrible. I liked Dante's take on A Good Life and Lightgow's performance in Nightmare at 20,000 feet was superb.

Slight nerd joke, but did anyone see the episode of Third Rock From The Sun where Dick (Ligthgow) meets Shatner playing the Big Giant Head? They have an awesome TZ reference in there when Shater complains about seeing a gremlin on the side of his plane and Dick replies, "the same thing happened to me!"
