The grading guys probably spent more time on the fake tape than the other 5 real tapes.


I wonder if they actually watch the used tape to make sure the vhs doesn't get taped over with some 90s porn.

I’m not watching that movie because the guy who made it made a suck poo poo Star Wars. He killed Luke Skywalker and will pay for it
Having seen his work before and after Star Wars, I've come to the conclusion that Disney killed Star Wars, with Johnson's biggest fault is that he didn't quit when the suits kept meddling.

Glass Onion is good, though not as good as Knives Out. Looking forward to the next one, at least.

Star Wars was poo poo well before Disney and the best thing to come out of the franchise since the original trilogy (outside some video games which were p. cool) was Andor, a Disney+ TV show made by someone who hates Star Wars.

I didn’t say he killed Star Wars. I said he made a Star Wars that sucked poo poo and killed luke Skywalker, and that he would pay for it. And now, thanks to your baby level reading comprehensions, so shall the two of you

I think they were less concerned with the content of the tape and more concerned with the condition of the tape and whether or not it was really sealed in the original shrink wrap.
That’s all the grading is, the condition of the tape, not how much it’s worth.

At the beginning of the video, I was like, “oh wow, I wonder how much my wife’s pre-special edition Return of the Jedi VHS is worth?” But by the end I realized it’s worth nothing, because it’s not a pristine, unwatched, still in the shrink wrap copy. Because VHS is a garbage format, and every time you play a VHS tape, it’s quality degrades a little bit. :shrek:

How "on the hook" are people for eBay bids? Is there really someone who's going to pay $69k+ for Nukie/a charity who watches RLM? Sure if you're rich enough it's not a big deal but I can't imagine anyone who watches RLM being that well off. No offense. I don't think Patton Oswald or Mac has $70k to drop even for a charity. So how serious are the bids? Is it Neil Breen?

Also, y'all. I just got 2 tickets to see Babylon again tonight with my friend.



After seeing Babylon again last night with my friend, we were doing further comparison to House of Gucci. The considered both movies to be equally entertaining, but noted that there wasn’t any actor being a complete nut job ham the same way Jared Leto was in House of Gucci. This lead to a debate: Could Babylon be the next House of Gucci without having its own Jared Leto? The debate was settled when we realized, the Jared Leto of Babylon is Damien Chazelle himself.

I think they've got a bunch of film industry fans beyond those two. I remember tweets from people over the years talking about them, and there's probably plenty more who never do. It's probably one of them. Or like, computer nerds who make hundreds of thousands a year.

I understand that. I was thinking they would go “it’s in shrink wrap? Randomly assign number between 80 and 95” cuz I was assuming it was all a scam.
