Back in 2021 I gave money to a Kickstarter for a new dub for Dirty Pair. I didn't care about the dub, I just wanted Dirty Pair on bluray. Over the course of the campaign they kept adding stretch goals for more features on the bluray. Today they announced they are about to start recording one of the sets of stretch goal commentaries. I just want Dirty Pair on bluray

Sniep posted:I cannot believe this to be true, even for the old pre-covid $5 loose dvd/blu ray bins. 20 years ago I worked at a video game store while I was in college, and I saw the bill of materials for new games. Between the publisher and the distributor, the store was paying between $50-54 for a new game that retailed for $60. Definitely not a huge profit center (which is why GameStop pivoted so hard to used games in the early 2000s).

Are we talking cartridges or first gen cd consoles cuz I can totally believe that and it doesn't negate today's drastically different logistics and disc pressing methods.

I backed this too and I don't give a single poo poo about the dub and kind of think they shouldn't have bothered with it in the first place, but I just wanted the series on Blu-ray. Every update is like, "Good news! Some guy who paid a bunch of money to be a voice in one episode said he's free to record three months from now!" I'm curious how many people backed it specifically for the dub and how many people just backed it for the blu-rays.

Using VS week to finally buy a copy of Nightmare Sisters off eBay. Saw a slipcased copy for $30 shipped, sold. I’m not really someone who cares about slips but the artwork on that one is great and the disc sleeve itself is pretty awful.

Chris James 2 posted:The new Cinematographe release is Red Rock West If you like Hammer horror I’d big time recommend Werewolf vs Vampire Woman, it’s not exactly high art but it IS a pretty little monster movie with no shortage of gothic atmosphere. The VS release is a huge upgrade from the prints I’d seen back in the 90s too. I’ve heard good things about Terminal Island and seems very very up my alley so I think I’m gonna grab it to close out this sale.

In case anyone else was wondering, I had my VSCRAPS shipping email from VS on 12/22 but hadn’t gotten anything and the tracking was coming up invalid still. I reported it on site and the guy came back saying they’re mainly going out this week and won’t be tracked as they’re just going regular mail. Gonna guess the email was a mistake. To be honest, I’d completely forgotten anyway.

Yeah i sent an email earlier this week and they told me the same thing. It arrived Saturday. Pretty cool slip! I now have two of these goofy things. At least they don't take up any space.

I don't believe so, although I think it was SKUs that helped leak that all 3 were being bumped to 4K, right? I wouldn't pre-order though. After seeing the touch-ups on stuff, I might only grab Aliens because of my dedication to the series. I'll probably rent the digital copies to see what's what.

Also, half off Arrow stuff at Barnes and Noble. It's off of MSRP not street pricing so more like 30%? 4Ks for 25-30$. Now to whittle down my 335$ cart. Or not?

I'll go with the steelbook because at least the lockers are like a featured setting in the movie, a lot of scenes take place in that area. It's at least better than a close up of the back of Charlie Sheen's head.
