Never thought to compare it to Inception. It gives me more of a Neverending Story vibe. Every time I watch it I’m caught off guard, in a good way, at how gory it is.

I really wouldn't call it that gory though. There is one transformation scene and a decapitation, but that's about it. Also felt a waste of Terrence Stamp to have him only say one line and then vanish. I'll probably give it another shot in maybe ten years or so, but it did leave me slightly frustrated.

Deep Discount shipped my copy of Company of Wolves. I had an import copy and only watched about 20 minutes before I stopped for some reason and never went back to it. I may have lost interest but I don't really recall if that was the reason. Hopefully I find something to enjoy this time.

Kenny is also hilarious.. so is Ricky. Hard to pick a favorite character as I would have to do a write up on almost everyone...

My #6 character would be Aunt Martha. It's fun to talk that way:

"Shout should release a UHD of Sleepaway Camp (1983). A blu ray simply would not do. Oh no, absolutely not. A UHD would be so much nicer."

I forgot he was in this. I’ve seen it a few times and can’t even picture him.

Smaller sizes will be cheaper of course but you mentioned wanting to go big. I have the LG C1 65" model and it's fantastic.

My money this year for Black Friday has gone to 4K UHDs. So many great deals. Maybe next year. Or the next. Thank you for the advice.

I know they're bit characters but Craig and Mary Ann are high on my list too.

I ain't paying $30 for a close to barebones release with no slip. So I'm gonna sit these out.

I want the Bronson too bad.

The Ferrera I can see myself selling after watching, but I've always made my money back on the limiteds. And I can add it to my dark Christmas roster too.

Same. Might as well import it.

[jgogg]

Wow, dang, Canadians shut out for the two new exclusives.

[Member-222782]

I would've been all over that Bronson film but it feels like a cheap cash grab and not worth the money. It doesn't even say what scan they're using. A title like that needed a Collector's Edition UHD. Major bummer.

[xXx$uicide_Ma$terxXx]

$30 for a barebones release of a Charles Bronson movie presumably with an old scan. This company truly gives no ****s about anything besides their constant re-releases and re-re-releases.
