Still lots of stuff out there. You'll need a mighty strong shelf if they are all released and you are a completist

My other half complains I’ve to many films and need to downsize like that’s going to happen...not.
And I’ve probably not got as many as some people on here, Ive also seen ppl Show their collection on other sites and some are 5000 plus, sadly I don’t have anywhere near that, more slightly over 2000 Id say.
Ps wish I was a completist, sadly I’m not.

Watched Piranha II last night. Amusing enough but wouldnt really recommend. It comes with a nice poster but special features are non existent. Surely they could have done something other than "trailer". I'm not looking for a 90min making of & interview with Cameron, but it deserves something!

Did anyone else find the picture quality a bit substandard? Could just be my TV.

Its the best its ever looked.Cant see any difference between this and the Scream edition.
Wouldn’t reccommend? It’s a riot.

But hey ho each to their own.

I watched it yesterday for the first time and actually thought it was a decent enough piece of trash (a million times better than the Babadook! )
I don’t have anything to compare the PQ with, but it looked fine to me

Avenging Force looks the part as well -OTT piece of stereotypical racist non pc trash that it is!

As with Firstenberg's other,Cannon epics,it is still highly entertaining.

On the intro to the film,it's interesting to note,Sammy reckons this is his best film.....sorry,disagree there mate-that would have to be REVENGE OF THE NINJA or AMERICAN NINJA.

REVENGE OF THE NINJA-Now there's a suggestion 88!
PART III THE DOMINATION would also be most welcome.
Surely Eureka's license has lapsed by now?

And i'll disagree with you as well. American Ninja is nowhere near good as American Ninja 2. Everyone (well, except you ) knows it's the best of the series.

And I'll disagree back.

Where the **** in American Ninja 2 has any Ninja a plant pot-destroying laser?

Your honour,I rest my case.
