I would like to get it, but there are several things higher up on my music wishlist right now.

Sweet! The Tama set looks similar to my set. That Sonor set looked really nice.

I love's me some Monty Python. I hadn't seen this movie in several years and enjoyed the hell out of it. Here's a short review I did on the blu-ray quality:

I listened to the 5.1 DTS-MA and the audio was a bit harsh from time to time, and the dialog was a tiny bit muffled ocassionally, but it wasn't too bad overall. It is very much front loaded for the most part, but the music and some ambient sounds like the thunder in the scene with Death do find there way into the surrounds.

Even though I'm not very into watching bonus material most of the time, I did watch the new hour long 30th anniversary conversation with all five surviving Pythons and found it to be fascinating and funny.

In my opinion this is the best it's ever looked or sounded on home video, but that's to be expected on blu-ray, but it could've been much, much better.

What's a "DVD"? I hadn't seen it in a long time either. The dance routine in "Every Sp#rm is Sacred" was pretty spectacular on the pj.

Here's some screenshot comparisons of the UK version DVD/BD if you're interested: http://www.caps-a-holic.com/hd_vergl...d_multiID=1285

It's not the most amazing transfer ever, but it's a definite step up in quality.

EDIT: Apparently you can't say sp#rm on here, but you can say shit ass dick .

Well, shit. Maybe, you can make a list like George Carlin's. 7 Words You Can't Say on TV. Surprisingly, some of his are fine here.

Those Creepshow films are really great. I remember having the second one on VHS.
