Monster Zero x SciFi Japan - Archive Only

I need to pick up some more classic Doctor Who. I missed the last round of sales at Barnes & Noble -- hopefully I'll catch the next half price sale and get a chance to pick up some more sets. Lately I've been eyeing the special edition collection of "Key to Time".

Also, I stopped by Big Lots Saturday and picked up a few DVDs.

-The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T -- a live action movie written by Dr. Seuss himself.

-Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit (widescreen) -- the DVDs have been floating around Big Lots for awhile and I didn't have a copy of the movie yet.

-Chuck Jones Collection -- this release includes 'Rikki Tikki Tavi' , 'Mowgli's Brothers', 'The White Seal', 'A Cricket in Times Square', 'Very Merry Cricket', and 'Yankee Doodle Cricket'.

The Mind Robber is a great serial -- it's one of the few Troughton's I've had the opportunity of watching.


I stopped by Wal-Mart today to check out a superhero home video end cap that I saw being put up on Monday. It seems to be all Marvel titles.

I picked up a copy of Fantastic Four - World's Greatest Heroes - The Complete First Season for $10.

This was the recent F4 series that was running on Toonami and fell victim to one of those confusing Cartoon Network programming decisions. It was a great show, very entertaining -- no idea what the CN executives were thinking when they dropped it (without even airing the entirety of the single season the show had). I believe that Nicktoons airs re-runs nowadays.

This arrived in the mail on Friday! Haven't been able to watch any of it yet due to prior engagements.

Boom!







and Boom Again!

After quite some time of waiting for the right deal to come around, I finally relented and made the upgrade to Blu-ray yesterday, buying a player/5.1 surround sound system combo which was on clearance for a very reasonable price at Best Buy. They work splendidly and I'm very pleased. And, as my first Blu-ray film purchase...

I keep meaning to get Metroplis, glad I saw you mention it, thanks, it's going on my shopping list at Amazon, along with The LOTR Extended trilogy.

These just in, the Alien and Matrix sets and the Gamera Duo are upgrades from regular DVD:






Not blu-ray, but these have either arrived or they're on their way:





Now I just need to find the time to watch these.

Ordered this recently off Amazon from a distributor in the UK. It's a Region 2 DVD, which means I can only view it on my PC at the moment, but still freakin' awesome! :rockon:


Also picked up these @ Best Buy:

I rarely double dip (I have these in the old Harryhausen box sets), but these were already on sale for $12.99, and to buy 2 and get 1 free, I got all three for less than $10 each. I couldn't NOT do it! Argonauts has a brand new commentary with Peter Jackson, which I'm especially looking forward to.

Yeah August I've heard from multiple people that Flash is the better of the two series...what's the hold up with that? Did Flash ever play in Hawaii? Is it a rights thing that's keeping if from being released? I've heard some rumors that these haven't exactly sold like hotcakes so there's no drive for releasing any more dvds which certainly seems to make sense as it's been a while since that company has released anything new.

Either way, I'd love to see some more vintage toku releases state side. I've supported every release thus far and will continue to do so.

One of my favortie tv shows ever now is Kikaider...makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside just thinking about that show

R2 Box Sets: SPACE G-MEN Complete Series (1960) & TRIPLE FIGHTER (1972) Complete Series

Magnet/Magnolia are one of my favorite film distributors by far. Two more great releases:
