What was the last DVD you bought and why?

This beauty arrived in the post. Can't wait to revisit it

Do it. I was shocked how good Puss and Boots 2 was. It's one of the best movies of the decade to me. Everything worked. I didn't think much of Puss in the Shrek franchise, never saw the first Puss and Boots. Man. They make him so damn cool and actually heroic. But that's because the villain is one of the coolest villains I've ever seen. Even the animation is cool and unique. I have no clue why they went so hard on that movie but I am glad they did.

As far as me I bought The Searchers, Dunkirk (didn't own it) and Casablanca on blu ray at Barnes and Noble. Found them for cheap.

101 Favorite Movies (2019)

I realize it's been a few years since I bought some Criterions so I decided to go on a binge










Three of the films are all-time favorite comedies, Berlin Alexanderplatz because I really want to sit and watch that again and The New World for a possible future HOF selection

I picked up the limited edition Indicator box set From Hollywood to Heaven: The Lost and Saved Films of the Ormond Family.

It's The Complete Sherlock Holmes Collection, or at least the ones with Basil Rathbone as Holmes. I recall seeing those a long time ago and they're really an enjoyable waste of time. There's a murder, Holmes is on the scene, Watson bumbles his way around being likable, and then Sherlock solves the crime, much to the chagrin of Scotland Yards, who, as always, is clueless.

I've had this on my watchlist for years. Buying the new 2K restoration from Arrow will give me a nudge to get it watched:

The Pasolini 101 boxset from Criterion---because I love Pasolini.

I passed up a chance to buy the Box Set of all five The Fly franchise, and I’m now thinking o should go back this weekend and buy it before it’s gone.

Go for it. It's a fun series of movies. The original and Cronenberg remake are great, while the other ones are pretty good too.

I picked up Gooodbye Emmanuelle and Classroom Teasers/How To Seduce A Woman on blu ray today.

The Eureka/Masters of Cinema blu-ray collection of Zulawski's Polish Trilogy (loosely grouped):
The Devil
The Third Part of the Night
On the Silver Globe

Somebody is missing Skinamax!

Guilty as charged! (No, not really. I never had skinamax, but I do enjoy some sleazy trash from time to time )

It's the third one of a set (I had the first two) - the third installment of "Dark Film Mysteries", AKA Film Noir. These are the cheesy ones like The Limping Man, The Hoodlum, Jail Bait and Lady Gangster....3 disks, 13 movies.

I sold some movies that I had duplicates of or wasn’t going to watch again and got $208 store credit at the Beat Goes On. I then bought the Lars Von Trier Europe Criterion trilogy, Night of the Demon Severin blu ray, Beyond the Door Arrow blu ray, and the 2 disc Fistful of Dollars dvd.

Had these two delivered today:

One of my favourite Kielsowski films in 4k



And this one which I've never seen:

I sold 10 movies at the Beat Goes On for store credit and picked up:

The Clint Eastwood Collection dvd (includes A Fistful of Dollars / For a Few Dollars More / The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly / Hang 'em High)

The Clint Eastwood Collection volume 5 dvd (includes Kelly's Heroes / Where Eagles Dare / The Outlaw Josey Wales / Pale Rider / Heartbreak Ridge / Unforgiven / Dirty Harry / City Heat / Gran Torino / American Sniper)

The John Wayne Western Collection dvd (includes Hondo / The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance / True Grit / The Shootist / McLintock! / The Sons of Katie Elder / Rio Lobo / Big Jake / El Dorado)

Can I ask why you sold some of your movies? Were they duplicates or dvds that you upgraded to Bluray or Criterion?

I'm running out of space on my shelves, so I wanted to get rid of some. A few were duplicates that I had upgraded or had two copies of and some were ones that I knew I wasn't going to watch again.
