I got a pretty good deal today... An obvious pricing mistake at FYE, but that's how it rang up and the clerk either didn't know or didn't care, so merry christmas to me!

Sorry for the double post but I think this is worth it. The Dark Knight & The Neverending Story are each $5.49 on Amazon. ------- Battle Royale is getting a US release from Starz/Anchor Bay on March 20. Two versions. A standard release and "The Complete Collection". No details on what that means but I imagine that the complete collection is going to be like the UK release and the standard release will be only the movie and some extras.

I looked up Blu-ray releases for this not too long ago and all that I found was a limited edition import that sells for way too much. I'm glad I can finally update my Korean DVD with the not so good subtitles.

The Citizen Kane Blu-Ray with The Magnificent Ambersons DVD finally dropped in price (and this is the first time it dropped below $50) $32.99 on Amazon http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...ASIN=B001PIHH5M Call Me Charlie fucked around with this message at 19:20 on Dec 14, 2011 |

I'm wondering if someone can tell me if there's any difference between the BSG complete series set and just buying the individual seasons on blu-ray. Right now the price difference is pretty significant on Amazon (around $86 for individual seasons excluding The Plan vs $129 for the box set) and I'm thinking of picking them up.

There is no difference. And The Plan is terrible anyway. e: Also The Plan is actually included in the Complete Set. Kull the Conqueror fucked around with this message at 08:47 on Dec 15, 2011 |

Quantum of Phallus posted:But some of the webisodes aren't, am I right with that? I think you are correct - the season 3 set has "The Resistance" webisodes but the ones from season 4 are not on the individual releases. Also, The Plan is loving terrible and a complete waste of time.

As long as he's not buying the box set he might as well just save himself the time and money and skip Season 4 too.

Kull the Conqueror posted:There is no difference. And The Plan is terrible anyway. The Plan is indeed loving awful which is why I excluded it from my calculations. I don't want to own that piece of poo poo. So basically buying the seasons individually will slash the price by 1/3. Thanks. Gonna order now.

I stopped into a HMV today and saw the Keno Metropolis but... they had two versions. The original and the Moroder version, I thought these were included in the same set?

No, the Moroder version just came out. The original release is just the Complete Metropolis that was shown in Germany.

The Moroder cut is also on Netflix Instant in full 1080p. It's worth a view if you're curious to see the film prior to the massive digital restoration. The photographic quality is often the same and the transfer is excellent. I watched Kino's Seven Chances today. The opening scene is from a heavily damaged Technicolor print, but most of it is from a gorgeous original nitrate positive. It almost looks like a new movie. Plus, they included the Three Stooges short Brideless Groom in HD as an extra.

My first Criterion came today, Dazed and Confused, and I'm in love before it's even hit my player. With the BD releases, are there many cases where they're likely to go out of print, and if so is it easy to find a list? I order through PlanetAxel to the UK (arrived in <4 days in the middle of December!) so probably can't buy many as I don't think anywhere that does the 50% sales ships here. I have my eye on America Lost and Found and the Three Colors trilogy, neither of which I'm hoping are going to go OOP any time soon.

On this topic, I actually got my first one a few weeks ago: Seven Samurai. Same case, in love with the case, the cover, and even the little booklet inside before I have even played the movie! (Though I have seen Seven Samurai before) Any other good ones like that? That is, with a full on cardboard case or has lots of physical supplements (I love reading and watching the movie at the same time) I was thinking of making my next one Cronos as I love del Toro and I've never seen this film.

Breathless? poo poo I gotta get this, Jean-Luc and I've never seen it. Anyone have this? What's in it as far as physical stuff goes? I think after Christmas It's a tie between Night of the Hunter and Breathless. Possibly Vampyr.

Does anyone know if there are any features exclusive to the complete Star Wars blu-ray set? I kind of want to get the original movies if the price drops to the $30-range, but if there's any decent documentary stuff exclusive to the set of all six I'll wait for the price on that one to drop.
