It's Mathieu Amalric from Quantum of Solace/A Christmas Tale/The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.

I had to look up the Aphex twin guy.

I just watched Days of Heaven. I'd give it a 6/10. I also should get Naked in the mail by Wednesday. I really want to see it. David Thewlis is great imo. I'll pick it up during the sale if I like it.

Missed that, well it wasn't long to answer, and I think most of us are waiting for it.

My plan is to make one BIG and final online order as soons as possible so the risk of having items cancelled due to a lack of inventory will be lower.

Don't live in US or near it so it is my only choice, glad I seen a 10% online coupons, hope it'll work. ( It worked today but who knows)

If he lives in an area with high humidity, moisture can get into cardboard and paper and warp it. I haven't seen it so much on Blu-Rays, but I've had it it happen to some of my DVDs. The worst is those old Warner snapper cases, moisture from the air gets into the cardboard and because they've got plastic frames, they can sometimes warp pretty badly.

I use small plastic bags for BR storage at the moment, just in case - until I can get a drier environment for them.

I'm quite stunned with the image quality, specially when compared to the terrible image of the dvd... This will surely be a day-one purchase for me !

"The Music Room" is an excellent release. Not only are you getting the film, you are also getting the 2hour+ documentary. Definitely recommended!

OK...back to lurking...

Wow, you did go a bit crazy.

I too did not get my 10% off my preorder of Beauty and the Beast. Goiod thing is that my order will ship next week and i gives me a whole week to resolve the 10% discount issue.

stlcards · 07-12-2011, 05:52 AM

I haven't decided yet. I would like Kiss Me Deadly, Charade, The Thin Red Line, Insignificance, and Seven Samurai. I can only get a couple. Decisions! Lol

Tom Hiddleston · 07-12-2011, 05:55 AM

I only ordered Pierrot le Fou. I am going to try to buy everything else in store. I used the 15% coupon, so the total was $18.xx with free shipping.

Anyone purchasing via paypal? I noticed that it goes through paypal goes back to confirmation screen, back to paypal....having no success purchasing. Hmm...

UPDATE: Upon the second paypal visit, it then works...
--
There are only four this time that I still have yet to pick up but I picked up two Blu-rays via the 15% off code:

- Kiss Me Deadly
- Blow Out

The other one that I still need is Stage & Spectacle box set which I still haven't purchased and Powell's "I Know Where I'm Going".

Originally, wanted "Harakiri" but seeing that "Harakiri" is coming out to Blu-ray from MOC, I guess I can forget that one...
