Todd,

Hopefully those new prices are not too much. Unfortunately the digibooks are a bit heavier than I thought.

I'll be taking orders for the next 4 hours and after that I'll check how many are in and contact Discshop/Universal again and find out the deal. I think we have about 40 orders in! I'm about to go to the post office soon so I'll try to get the exact prices for everyone. Hopefully there's not too many cancellations! Yes, I can order online from B&N. I just feel their prices are ridiculously high most of the time and shipping costs like $10. I feel someone else on this forum is recommending that very same film to me....

I left Matti a love note from us. Check out his page.

Regarding 'The Skin I Live In'...

I know! That moment when I figured it out as well.... slapped me like a brick! I agree about how you rank the 'twist', certainly among the best of them, but I also agree, this one seemed like even so much more. It really takes hold of you, and then... everything starts to make a little more sense. I also agree, beautiful and tense like this was, is a rare combination. Regarding your questions... I'll shoot you a PM, so if Matti reads this, we don't spoil it for him.

Hey,

Thanks for the info. I decided to cancel the single disc and just pick up the Complete Collection as it seems that the general consensus is that the Theatrical is better, and the single disc only comes with the Extended.

Hey buddy,

Just curious. You have seen Battle Royale (based on your comments in the thread). Did you watch the Theatrical, or the Director's Cut? If you have seen both, which one do you prefer? I am trying to decide if I should buy the Complete Collection, or just the Single Disc Release (Extras, and BR 2 aren't really of much interest to me...) Let me know your opinion when you get a chance. Thanks!

Nice!

Yeah, I totally understand! I couldn't agree more, there certainly will never be another film like it. It certainly blew my mind! I just couldn't believe it...and the way the somewhat circular stories take place, and show the different characters and people at and during different times in their lives, it was genius. Wow.

So the question I have for you... while some may argue it is required viewing in terms of modern foreign cinema, what was your over all opinion (after you have had some time to let it sink in)? Any thoughts or reactions?

Hey buddy!

Nice! No problem at all! Happy to help, and I hope you enjoy the films! You'll have to let me know what you thought of them. Thank YOU again! Talk to you soon.

Cheers!

Hey,

Nice! I checked your delivery confirmation today and your films should be delivered tomorrow. Yes! I am very excited to hear what you think of 'The Skin I Live In'. I hope sincerely that I have not hyped it too much, that is my only worry. But going in with no previous knowledge, I think it'll certainly entertain. Very excited to hear your impression.

Talk to you soon!

I've updated the group buy thread + some pics.
