I usually get a dispatch email but every so often something arrives that I've not had an email for. I ordered the Black Cats Set last week and I'm surprised that hasn't shipped yet.

Me too. The only time I didn't get one was with the Hellraiser Scarlet Box postage debacle.

None of my arrow sale stuff has shipped yet last time I ordered from the Xmas sale took over two months to get them I hope this is not a similar situation.

My Deep red arrived, watched it last night and it looks terrific. I'm bracing myself for the complaints about grain however.

The film grain is quite evident. Previous titles where this happened such as 'the burbs' had people whining about them on-line. Especially the 'AV monkey' people who learn the complaints by rote and repeat them endlessly in their reviews.

Back before I discovered cult labs, I used to see reviews for releases where there were complaints about DNR, Crushed blacks ect. I'm a novice with this kind of thing and genuinely didn't know what half the jargon meant. So I would message the person and ask for clarification only to get abuse or ignored half the time. Eventually I stumbled into cult labs and sites like Kentai's forum where the layman such as myself could actually get an explanation and maybe actually see what the complaints were about. I then came up with a theory where some people online genuinely know what they are on about, can provide clear and rational arguments for their complaints and show examples of the problems with the transfers. Others can't. These people have a monkey see, monkey do attitude to on-line criticism. They throw around the Jargon to generate outrage but can't really explain themselves when challenged. First good one I remember seeing was a review for zombie flesh-eaters Arrow release where the person doing the review complained about DNR.
