PS. Sorry, but could you delete the quote from your post? It's confusing when scrolling down fast and the thumbnails repeat.

I have one, in a blue case just like it shows here

I have the first 9 Flipsides as blu-ray only editions.

I've been waiting for a bigger BFI Flipside sale for a year and a half... maybe there will be one soon, now, but I just decided to make a -10% order from Rarewaves anyway for the ones I don't have that are licensed.



When these arrive, I'll only be missing 13 from here and there in the middle of the range.

Watched all of them! My ranking on Letterboxd (mainly only feature films)

[T4ffer]

FYI There is also quite a complete list of the BFI Flipside on Letterboxd: https://letterboxd.com/lemoncurry/li...-bfi-flipside/

Added this link to the first post as well.

Also I found I can't change the thread title myself, will ask a mod to do it.

What does engine think of Captured? It’s one I just can’t be bothered to watch and only got to be a completest. Tbh I’m suprised it’s not been deleted so some people must enjoy it over say films like Joanna

[Guernica78]

Excellent thread, hopefully this will be the place to chat about my favourite series. Some of the stuff here has blown me away - Symptoms was incredible when I saw it. can’t believe it was lost for so long and Angela Plesance was superb

Looks like this didn't survive. Would've been better off them merging the other thread into the one you started rather than the other way round.

Aargh. Well at least the post is on page 1. But once again I ask you to delete the listings in your quotes, to avoid confusion

[T4ffer]

BigNickUK, could we transfer the ownership of the first post here to me. The current first post has no usefulness any more and as customary with label threads, the first post should contain a listing of the releases, as currently does the last post on page 1

If you message pro b and ask I am sure he will let you take over

[Guernica78]

Taffer, would be good to know what films in the series you have or have watched?

Hopefully we can get this thread sorted so you become the OP

It’s difficult to say succinctly without looking up and listing them separately. I have watched more than half total and all of the new ones since Legend of The Witches and Secret Rites. Favourite so far is probably Deep End.

[yukito]

My absolute favourite is Duffer, it's surreal and strange keeps me wanting to rewatch it ever so often. Others I also love:
All the right noises
The pleasure girls
The party's over
Here we go round the mulberry bush
Deep end
Her private hell
Nightbirds
The black panther
Expresso bongo
Mr topaze
I start counting
Full circle
Cooking price-wise
And select shorts from the sharp shocks

I'm continuing to receive BFI Flipside in broken cases lately. First 4 from Rarewaves (which they compensated with -20%), now 3 from Amazon, broken. With amazon there's no sense to bother even dealing with it, I feel, given that returns would be terribly wasteful.

1 of the 7 I've ordered lately was without damage... I hope the ones that are still arriving this week will fare better.

But does anyone know where to get good replacement cases for the BFIs? I guess have to search for 15 or 14 mm cases. Maybe some single ones might even work as long as the inside rotating disc holder of the original case is still intact and fits the replacement...

Sorry about your issues - how many do you own now? Genuinly curious as to which ones you rate!

I created a Letterboxd list with my ranking https://letterboxd.com/t4ffer/list/bfi-flipside-ranked/ Might have missed something, I'll go over it again after finishing watching the next batch.

About the thread, I was told to be patient that it will be sorted, I haven't run out of patience yet, but I will probably ask again in a couple of weeks if it hasn't been done.

[T4ffer]

I just got some Amaray Vortex ones from Amazon. They fit one disc and the paper insert nicely, but the rotating disc holder from BFI cases has a different distance between the places where it attaches to the case, so those don't work For now I will keep the DVDs separate, I guess, until I find a better solution.
