[Miss Vicky]

i got a $30 Amazon card from my brother. What DVD(s)/Blu Ray(s) should I buy?

[Sexy Celebrity]

If you don't mind rebuying a film on Blu-ray just to see the better picture quality, Up is very stunning on Blu-ray if you don't have it yet.

[Miss Vicky]

If you don't mind rebuying a film on Blu-ray just to see the better picture quality, Up is very stunning on Blu-ray if you don't have it yet.

I've been thinking about doing that, but it's pretty pricey to buy.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I've been thinking about doing that, but it's pretty pricey to buy.

Yeah, I see that... it'll be on sale one day.

[Miss Vicky]

Yeah, I see that... it'll be on sale one day.

Disney has it available as part of the Movie Rewards program, so hopefully it'll still be an option once I have enough points saved.

I use 7A..

[Gatsby]

Yep. 7A is a bit too light for me.

[matt72582]

I like them light, because it's more smooth to play, and I want to control the sound more With sticks like 2B, you can play lightly, but still have a loud thump, but it makes for good exercises, playing with huge trees, and then playing 7A, feels like silk.

What kind of set/cymbals do you have?

[MovieGal]

Neil DeGrasse Tyson actually has "lecture" videos on Netflixs.. hmmmmm

I might have a thyroid problem. Which would explain my extreme fatigue and depression lately.

Hypothyroidism?

[foster]

I ordered some stuff for Interview with the Vampire Lestat and I secured the location.
Now time to go to good will and see if I can get a poet shirt for lestat and a black vest for malloy

[Sexy Celebrity]

You're filming your own version?

[Swan]

Hypothyroidism?

Honestly I don't know. My psychiatrist said I might have a thyroid problem, and since then, knowing the symptoms, it seems incredibly likely.

I kind of hope it's the case, so I can get some thyroid medication to help me out.

[honeykid]

I was hoping for thyroid problems a few years ago. :D Nope, just ****** depression. :(:D

a poet shirt


what type of a poet shirt?

nevermind .. I googled it... I see what you mean... isnt that just a men's shirt from the 18th and 19th century? I know a few places you might be able to order it...

Let me see what I can dig up.

[Swan]

You know at weddings when the groom dances with his mom, and then the bride dances with her dad? At my oldest sister's wedding, she and my dad did the Pulp Fiction dance. :D

Thanks MovieGal. Like I said, I'm kind of hoping it is, just so I can get the medication that might help out with some of the crap I'm dealing with.

I have noticed you are up very late... when I get up at 5:30am, you are on here sometimes.. and thats 3:30am your time..

wtf SC you are on here too.... are you up all night as well.. I know its 6:30 your time!

[The Gunslinger45]

Go far some great highlights from the Academy. Am passing my intermediate PT test by exit standards (meaning I am in good shape) and I got a 95 on the test I just took today. The high score for the class this week. Happy days! This calls for a celebration! I am watching Zombieland tonight!

[Gatsby]

Congrats on the nice job Slinger. And Zombieland is a great choice, I watched it for the first time for a commentary with Swan and CS, the thought I had when the movie finished was not knowing why I buried it at the bottom of my watchlist for so long.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I am watching Zombieland tonight

You missed a Zombieland commentary the other night. I didn't participate. But we did a Toxic Avenger commentary afterwards and I did that.

[The Gunslinger45]

I missed a Zombieland commentary? Dammit! Oh well.

[Swan]

Guns you got to join us for a commentary some time!

[foster]

You're filming your own version?

Yeah it takes place right after the movie ends. Serendipitously I met two guys who look like tom cruise and christian slater, so it's the perfect opportunity to do parody.

Yeah basically just an olde timey shirt like lestat had.
There are some on amazon but they all have terribly reviews, they're see thru, and cost like $40.. and aren't prime eligible.

That would be great if you could find a good source.

[The Gunslinger45]

I need to. I have not done one in ages! Keep me in the loop of what might be next.

I looked at PyramidCollection.com, they didnt have any men's. They used to. Go to pagan supply and clothing sites. Much better quality.

[MovieGal]

I've never done a commentary with you. :p

Exactly because you never invited me to!

However I did invite you and you didnt say you were in.. so we started without you.. and you made a pissy comment.

[Swan]

We will have to do a commentary some time, then.

[Swan]

You know, if you're around when we start commentaries, and you like the film we're doing, you can feel free to jump in?

[MovieGal]

yeah we talked of "Eyes Wide Shut" .. but made no plans..

I learned about quirks... I wonder how many know what that is.. and can explain it... lol

I'm a quirk.

[MovieGal]

I'm a quirk.

You are made up of quirks... its part of the neutron of an atom... there are 6 quirks to every neutron.... High grade, Medium Grade, Low Grade which each have 2... if you try to separate the quirk pairs.. it gets stronger as you separate them.. and once they are separated, the energy you put into separating them.. creates another one for the one you just separated... you can never have a single quirk..

[MovieGal]

sorry I am a true geek... :p

I wish I could find a similar show on History.... that would be damn awesome...

[Swan]

Too bad History Channel is filled with crap.

[MovieGal]

I know... Hulu and Netflixs does have some history documentary... I used to love "Kings and Queens of England", "Worst Jobs in History" and the 8 episode documentary "The Adventures of English".. which was pretty rad.... I even bought the book after the first show and kept up with it.... the dvd set is like $80 at B&N.

[MovieGal]

I enjoy documentaries and shows on UK History, Egyptian History, Roman History, The Crusades, Viking History, Religion, Mythology.. many other topics...

[Citizen Rules]

Me too, I love that stuff.

[MovieGal]

Yeah.... any form of Science, History, Philosophy, Religion, Mythology, Linguistics and many other topics...

[MovieGal]

hey CR.. do you like to read? if so, you should check out "Genie: A Scientific Tragedy" by Russ Rymer

[Citizen Rules]

All those too. Before I got into classic films, I watched nothing but documentaries, any topic.

[Citizen Rules]

Nope I don't like to read. I haven't read a fiction book in 25 years. I know most people like to read but I don't have the patiences.

[MovieGal]

Nope I don't like to read. I haven't read a fiction book in 25 years. I know most people like to read but I don't have the patients.

Thats non-fiction.. a true story.. its a linguistics book... about a girl that never learned to talk due to the abuse she grew up with .. and her story of learning to speak.

It sounds like an interesting book MG.

I once saw a PBS documentary on the human mind and how these 3 different people had unique problems due to injuries.

One guy had NO short term memory. He was smart and could hold a conversation with someone in the room, but if he turned around for a couple minutes and then turned back he had completely forgotten who the person in the room was.

Cool.. I enjoy books about things humans experience... I would say the scariest book I read was called "Satan's Underground".. it was actually a "witnessing book".. but the story of the girl growing up in a Satanic cult and the things they forced her to do.. was bad...

The book is about her experiences and then how she found God... and became a christian...

[Citizen Rules]

Have you read much on different religions?

[MovieGal]

I read what I can.. but its been years.. but I know about Wicca...(Earth Based Religions)

[MovieGal]

I guess one of the biggest things I know about religion is Egyptian burial beliefs and rites..

[Citizen Rules]

I seen this wonderful documentary on the Egyptian belief system, told from the point of an ancient Egyptian who died and went on the afterlife journey. Did you ever see that one? I think it was on the History channel back when they actually had history shows.

That book was a fraud. It was a cashgrab during the satanic panic. The author was a POS who later made another fake identity as a Holocaust survivor.:mad:

I almost mentioned that the 1980s had a big 'satanic panic'. The news media and people in general would blame all sort of societies ills on secret satanic sects. It was like an internet meme before the net.

Now the most interesting book I have read .. is a copy of the Malleus Maleficarum written by two German monks in 1468.. A book used by the Church to persecute people of witchcraft.

That sounds interesting, I've heard of it, the title means something like hammer of the witch? Was it translated into English or can you read Latin.

No doubt it was a load of bull, many innocent peoples lives were ruined. There was actually a couple in Texas or something who were only found innocent and released a couple of years ago after 21 years :mad: . The funny thing is it had a better chance of actually creating these cults, thanks to already unhinged people constantly hearing about it from the media :rolleyes:

[MovieGal]

yes it's "The Hammer of The Witches".. and it was translated into English.

[MovieGal]

It was written in tiny print..

Question 1
Whether the Belief that there are such Beings as Witches is so Essential a Part
of the Catholic Faith that Obstinacy to maintain the Opposite Opinion
manifestly savours of Heresy.

Question 2
If it be in Accordance with the Catholic Faith to maintain that in Order to bring
about some Effect of Magic, the Devil must intimately co-operate with the Witch,
or whether one without the other, that is to say, the Devil without the Witch, or
conversely, could produce such an Effect.

etc..

There is a free pdf on the net... lol but I have the book...

There was a mother and son who had a child day care center and was charge with multiple accounts of sexual child abuse. There were accused of being part of a satanic cult. It was latter found out that Prosecutors spoon feed the children information and under testimony the kids told all sorts of lies about balloon rides and secret tunnels that were proven to be false. I don't remember what happened to the mother and son but it ruined their lives.

I really wish you liked foreign films.. you would enjoy "Jagten" aka "The Hunt"...

[MovieGal]

here is a quote from the film

"We always assume that children don't lie. Unfortunately they lie often. ~ Jagten (Danish film, 2012)

[Citizen Rules]

That's what I learned from watching the story of the falsely accused child day care workers.

Did you know that in the 20th century that a child's testimony was always considered admissible as it was believed children could not lie....Did these people not have kids?:rolleyes:

The movie is about a man falsely accused of child molestation of his best friends daughter... she made the story up for attention... but it got out of hand.. she was about 5 years old.... and didnt know exactly what she was saying.. she heard her older brother and a friend says something in regards to a pornographic magazine.. anyway the film is about how the small town was so close minded that the did not believe anything he said.. and he was treated badly.. it has my Mads in it.. great film! One of Denmark's best films..

I completely agree, a lot of the blame has to go on the quack therapists who installed false memories in these kids. No doubt some were just flat out lying, but I truly believe some of the others came to believe this happened to them which is tragic :( .

Camo thanks for the link. I'm surprised to hear that anyone here knows of this old stuff from the 1980s. I'm in my early 50s and I remember the satanic cult scare, it was big.

Before that in the 1970s there were these strange news reports of cattle being dismembered in the middle of the night. It was a mystery on how it was being done and there was a lot of talk that UFOs were responsible. As a kid I remember being scared as it was on the nightly news often. Then the farm animal mutilations were blamed on satanic cults. Which might be the beginning of the 1980s fear of satanism.

You know I said it was like the Salem Witch Hunts, but it was more like the red communist scare in America during the 1950s with McCarthyism.

I've seen a documentary on it.
Maybe the west memphis 3 helped bring all this satanic scare stuff back to into focus.

Another great doc is After Innocence about dna exoneration.
These people spent their whole lives in jail and don't even get a penny for it. :eek:

[matt72582]

CR, you should try some foreign films. You're missing most of the world!

Consider this - they'd have to be great films to make it in the US, so you know they have to be good. People hate reading subtitles, no one I know personally will watch them. I would rather know the language as I like to see the visual, usually the facial expressions, and to have a synchronization of audio and video. Also, sometimes you can read faster than the action. Still, it's so worth it.

I recommend "La Strada" - I think Gulieta Masina's performance is the 2nd greatest by a female (after Rowlands in "Woman....") It's an amazing story, it's very heartfelt, I just have a feeling it's your kind of film. Anthony Quinn is so great, and Richard Basehart is good as well...

So how's the MoFo Movie Watch List going?

[MovieGal]

Good .. I think we got 21 watchers... so thats 21 weeks of film.. unless they want to buckle up to 3 films in 2 weeks...

[Citizen Rules]

I remember that scene! Hey did you know that during the French Revolution people claimed that the severed head was still alive for a few seconds?

[gbgoodies]

"The Addams Family" was much cooler than "The Munsters".

[MovieGal]

So the morbid little girl grew up to marry a porn star...

[MovieGal]

I remember that scene! Hey did you know that during the French Revolution people claimed that the severed head was still alive for a few seconds?

yes...

[Citizen Rules]

Do you believe it?

[MovieGal]

I would say yes on the fact that muscles severed still move for a few seconds.. so the eyes and mouth would have minimal function at that time...

[Citizen Rules]

I say yes too. I seen this documentary about the history of the guillotine. There was this French noble sentenced to be executed and he told a friend that if his severed head could still think he would blink his eyes three times...after he was beheaded, the executioner pulled his head out of the basket to show the crowd and...his head blinked 3 times.

[MovieGal]

involuntary muscle movement.. I wonder if the guy knew some anatomy...

[MovieGal]

did you know the Maid of Orlean.. fought along side one of the worst child killers in history.. he did worse than just killing.. he defiled the bodies as well...

[Citizen Rules]

I never heard of Maid of Orlean, when was that?

[MovieGal]

Joan of Arc was the Maid of Orlean....

[Citizen Rules]

Oh! shows you what I know. So who was her cohort?

[MovieGal]

I have books on the sickest people in history...

I have over 10 books on Elizabeth Bathory
I have 4 books of deSade's writings
I have a few books about Caligula
I have a book on Gilles de Rais.... the one who fought with Joan of Arc... sick sick man...

[90sAce]

Oh! shows you what I know. So who was her cohort?
I've heard of that guy, this is him:

Shame he looked like such a nice guy

[Citizen Rules]

Interesting painting. He has just took of his one glove and helmet and is still holding his battle axe. In the background there's smoke and chaos as a battle rages on the bridge.

[MovieGal]

I find it funny we have 21 or 22 members for the Watch List but 27 people voted.. I should have made the poll where it shows the names of the people voted..

[Swan]

I can see who voted.

[MovieGal]

lol yeah I clicked the numbers too now.. and just realized it.. thanks tho Swan....

[MovieGal]

if their name is not on the list.. of people who said the were in.. Im taking their votes out... its not fair to everyone... if random people voted.

[Citizen Rules]

I just learned something, I didn't know I could click numbers on a poll and see who voted for what.

[MovieGal]

I just learned something, I didn't know I could click numbers on a poll and see who voted for what.

Yup.. I dont know if I should send them private messages asking if they are in.. and if they arent.. then their vote is out...

[Camo]

Anyone watch Silicon Valley? I've just caught up with Season 2 and while I doubt it'll ever be among my favourite comedies, I always have a good time watching it.

[Swan]

No but I need to.

[Camo]

I might join at a later time MG, but I'm trying to cram in as many 60s movies as I can before the deadline.

[Camo]

No but I need to.

You really do.

[seanc]

You watch Play Time tonight Camo?

[Swan]

You really do.

Yeah, I know. My cousins told me I should watch it. I looks awesome.

[Camo]

You watch Play Time tonight Camo?

Yep. Liked it a lot. As I told Bluedeed I'm going to watch that video he posted then rewatch it in the next few days before posting my thoughts in the Rate The Last Movie thread. It was a lot of fun and Its astonishing that Tati built that set :eek:

[Swan]

Camo, is Silicon Valley available on Hulu or anything?

[seanc]

Yep. Liked it a lot. As I told Bluedeed I'm going to watch that video he posted then rewatch it in the next few days before posting my thoughts in the Rate The Last Movie thread. It was a lot of fun and Its astonishing that Tati built that set :eek:

Yeah I really loved it. I was was worried because I knew going in it was narrative free. I thought it was great though. I will end up buying it.

[Camo]

Yeah, I know. My cousins told me I should watch it. I looks awesome.

Not sure if you've watched Freaks and Geeks but Haverchuck is in it. That guy is awesome I also loved him in Party Down.

[Camo]

Yeah I really loved it. I was was worried because I knew going in it was narrative free. I thought it was great though. I will end up buying it.

Same here. I'm now thinking about getting the Tati collection that Daniels been bragging about :p

[Swan]

Love Freaks and Geeks!

What else is in that $65 on amazon right now.

[Camo]

Love Freaks and Geeks!

One of the main (kinda) characters from Season 1 died, so they had to write that into Season 2 something that usually bothers me but they handled it well IMO. He was replaced by Marie from Breaking Bad.

[Camo]

What else is in that $65 on amazon right now.

All of his features. I think there's 6 or 7.

[seanc]

Thanks, should have looked on IMDB. I didn't realize he had so few films.

[Camo]

According to wiki there's 6. As well as 3 shorts. I don't think the shorts are included in the boxset though.

[seanc]

7 discs, so I bet it's mostly everything. I think I will hold off. A his films look pretty similar, I will watch a couple others first.

[seanc]

Geez dude, Play Time by itself is $80. Looks like I will be holding off a bit on that purchase.

[Gatsby]

Geez dude, Play Time by itself is $80. Looks like I will be holding off a bit on that purchase.
Yikes. I was also thinking of buying Playtime one day but that price is ridiculous. :p

The most I've spent on a dvd is when I bought 8 1/2, which was around $35.

[Camo]

$ - aren't real money...…....

Neither are £.s,

Maybe Bitcoin....:lol:

[Gatsby]

How is Bitcoin Camo? Never been interested in it but a friend of mine uses it I think.

[Camo]

Dunno. Ask your friend? I'm worth as much in Bitcoin as I am in handshakes. Which is many!

[Swan]

I just noticed my top ten pics have a lot of weaponry in them.

[Camo]

Never even heard of The Beyond. Added to watchlist.

[Swan]

Never even heard of The Beyond. Added to watchlist.

It's uber semi-surrealist Italian gore trash. Hope you like it.

[Camo]

You had me at gore-trash.

[jiraffejustin]

I see Eraserhead is in your top ten, Camo. I don't know how to explain it, but there was a connection between The Beyond and Eraserhead that happened in my head. Probably the surrealism, even though Eraserhead is way heavier on it, they are both surreal nightmarish movies.

[Swan]

JJ was telling me of an interesting triple-feature possibility: Un Chien Andalou, The Beyond and Eraserhead.

Now that's what I call a movie night!

[Camo]

Still haven't seen any Buunel. I should get on it.

[Swan]

Bunuel is great, but based on peoples reactions to him on the board, he's not for everyone. Still worth checking out, and I think there is a film by him for everyone. I love him, and I know JJ does too.

[Camo]

Is your avatar from The Beyond Swan?

[jiraffejustin]

Still haven't seen any Buunel. I should get on it.

The Exterminating Angel. See it. Now. Stop what you are doing, whatever it may be, find a way to watch The Exterminating Angel. Then watch it. Then watch it again. :D

[Swan]

Is your avatar from The Beyond Swan?

Nope, it's from another Fulci film - Zombie.

[Gatsby]

I've only seen one Bunuel, the popular one, and it was an overall meh.

[Camo]

The Exterminating Angel. See it. Now. Stop what you are doing, whatever it may be, find a way to watch The Exterminating Angel. Then watch it. Then watch it again. :D

1962....hmm:cool:

[Camo]

I've only seen one Bunuel, the popular one, and it was an overall meh.

Is Un Chien Analou the popular one in Spanish?

[Cobpyth]

Bunuel is brilliant.

Only seen Un Chien Andalou, The Discreet Charm of the Bourgeoisie and Belle de Jour of his, but that's enough to draw that conclusion. I'm probably watching The Exterminating Angel next.

[Gatsby]

No I meant The Discreet Charm of something something.

[Swan]

My favorite Bunuel is probably That Obscure Object of Desire.

[Cobpyth]

No I meant The Discreet Charm of something something.

You didn't like that? :eek:

What bothered you about it, Gatsby?

[Camo]

What did you think of His Girl Friday Cob?

[Gatsby]

You didn't like that? :eek:

What bothered you about it, Gatsby?
I don't remember exactly because it was 2 years ago. I think I wasn't a fan of the film's style of surrealism back then. Felt a bit frenetic.

[Cobpyth]

What did you think of His Girl Friday Cob?

I had a great time watching it!

I had already seen Wilder's The Front Page, so a large portion of the plot wasn't new to me anymore, but even though I liked Wilder's film, I think I like His Girl Friday even better. The "gender change" works remarkably well (in the original play the two main characters are males) and kind of makes the film even darker, which I loved.

It's also better structured and therefore a little less adventurous than Hawks' Bringing Up Baby, but again I think I prefer His Girl Friday over it, because it's so incredibly clever and fittingly fast. I do think Bringing Up Baby has some other qualities that His Girl Friday hasn't, though, so it's a tough choice.

Anyway, I really liked it, which is probably what you were most interested in. ;)

[Camo]

Glad to see you liked it. You lost me a bit at first since I haven't seen The Front Page. Then you pulled me back in with the Bringing Up Baby talk ;) . I love both equally, there's just something so charming and engaging about both that seems to be missing from a lot of modern Rom-Coms. Dunno if you'd agree.

[BlueLion]

Bunuel is great, but based on peoples reactions to him on the board, he's not for everyone.

He is great, regardless of what anyone thinks.

[Swan]

You're right. I don't mean to dissuade anyone from watching Bunuel. He is certified greatness. :cool:

[Gatsby]

Alrighty I'm sold. Rewatching The Discreet Charm of Bourgeoisie soon.

[bluedeed]

Saw The Discreet Charm again recently at an outdoor screening in 35mm, which actually lessened my opinion of it. I like Bunuel generally but I think my sensibilities are less aligned with him than they used to be.

His Girl Friday is excellent, though not a top 10 Hawks for me. There's no doubt that it's one of the most tightly conceived and structured Hollywood creations, but I just prefer Hawks in other modes than his mode for that film. Interesting that you bring up the gender change. In Notre Musique, Godard uses stills from His Girls Friday to indicate that Hawks doesn't know the difference between man and woman. The more Hawks I watch, the more I agree with this statement.

I prefer his remake of Bringing Up Baby, Man's Favorite Sport?, to the original. It has the politics, fun, and charisma of the original, but is much more laid back and lackadaisical like the best of late Hawks.

[rauldc14]

People in the Watch List need to come chill!

[Swan]

What's up raul? What is our next commentary going to be?

[jiraffejustin]

Yeah, let's chilllllllllll

[rauldc14]

I really want to get a massive Big Trouble in Little China commentary. Swan, Nostro, HK, and Slob and anyone else!

[Swan]

I still need to see that one, first. :p

I can ASAP though, if I need to. That and Coffy.

[The Gunslinger45]

I really want to get a massive Big Trouble in Little China commentary. Swan, Nostro, HK, and Slob and anyone else!

Dammit! And my without Big Trouble on DVD. :(

[rauldc14]

I haven't seen Coffy.

I think Se7en would be fun too.

[Swan]

I haven't seen Coffy.

I think Se7en would be fun too.

That'd be cool.

[rauldc14]

Gunslinger there's no set in stone date so there is still time!

Will definitely watch Notre Musique and Man's Favorite Sport then. I'm interested how Godard defines "woman" and "man".

[MovieGal]

Swan.... our first commentary.. next tuesday day... let me know what time is good for you.. anything before 4pm CST is good for me..

Strangely party city had much better costume stuff than costume cabaret.

I got a pirate shirt and a woman's blonde hippie wig.. only blonde wig without bangs.
Going to a stylist tomorrow and see if they can cut it and style it for lestat.

Party city also had "retractable fangs" with a tongue lever but after reading the reviews online I decided to pass.

[jiraffejustin]

I watched this video a million times I think.

I've had a hangover for the last two days, but I'm back now - feeling fresh, full of energy and snap, crackle and pop!

[JayDee]

I really want to get a massive Big Trouble in Little China commentary. Swan, Nostro, HK, and Slob and anyone else!

I'd be up for a Big Trouble commentary if I was able when it came to it

[Swan]

Why don't I believe you?

Tomorrow, I'll be "acting" as an extra in an international short film contest...

You can take Party City wigs to a stylist and get it cut?

[foster]

You can take Party City wigs to a stylist and get it cut?

Yup! It's a cheaper quality and you can't use anything with heat, but you can definitely cut and style it. I already have hairspray designed for wigs :p

I think my next dvd purchase will be this!

http://www.amazon.com/Visions-Ecstasy-Sacred-Louise-Downie/dp/B0083Q4K2M/ref=pd_ybh_19

[rauldc14]

I haven't bought any DVDs since January. I am due.

[MovieGal]

my upcoming purchase will be the criterion of "Valerie and Her Week of Wonder".. it comes out in June... hell yeah.. finally! my buddy Sean who works for B&N ordered a copy for me..

[Swan]

I have so many exploitation films I want to buy!

[rauldc14]

I just want to buy some classic fun stuff. Like Raiders or Jaws or E.T. Among other possibilities.

[The Gunslinger45]

So I am at the AMC cinema here to see Mad Max: Fury Road. Had a meal at the bar (BLT pizza is delicious btw). Anyway noticed they have a wine made by none other than Francis Ford Coppola. Bought a 5 oz glass. Because f**k it he made The Godfather and Apocalypse Now is a Top 10 favorite film of mine. The moral of the story is clear. I need to stick to beer, and Francis needs to stick to movies. Oh well. It was probably still a better choice over the Dan Akroyd Crystal Skull vodka.

[Swan]

I want to get some Corbucci. JJ recommended The Great Silence, sounds awesome.

[Sexy Celebrity]

It was probably still a better choice over the Dan Akroyd Crystal Skull vodka.

That's what I would have had.

[Miss Vicky]

I just added Persona and The Triplets of Belleville to my collection. I also replaced my Ratatouille, Wall E, Emporer's New Groove, Kronk's New Groove, Brother Bear and Brother Bear 2 DVDs with Blu Ray.

[Swan]

I just added Persona to my collection.

:highfive:

[The Gunslinger45]

That's what I would have had.

Not a liquor guy. So I am going to pass there.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Well, I'm not much of a wine person. Used to really like it, but not much anymore.

[Miss Vicky]

:highfive:

No high five for Belleville?

Granted it's not Chomet's best. But I like it.

[The Gunslinger45]

Well, I'm not much of a wine person. Used to really like it, but not much anymore.

Well I am a beer guy, but tried the wine for the name brand. Learned my lesson.

[Swan]

I do like Belleville. So high fives for that, too. :highfive:

[rauldc14]

I haven't seen Belleville, but it is on Netflix.

[Miss Vicky]

Right now I'm struggling through 5 Centimeters Per Second. It's only an hour long and the animation is really gorgeous, but the story just isn't gripping me.

[rauldc14]

Trying to complete that animation list I see.
