Oh yeah: the important thing was I had an onion on my belt, which was the style at the time. They didn't have white onions because of the war. The only thing you could get was those big yellow ones...

Miribeau?

"TONIGHT our lead story: Last night a man was caught on camera being gruesomely beat to death by a life-sized banana and bodybuilder. This morning, police found the body in a local storage unit bizarrely wrapped in a glow-in-the-dark bodybag. Also found in the storage unit were over 500 copies of a Blu-ray called 'The Carrier," which an online personality known as "The Demon" informed us is OOP and highly collectible with it's unique authoring techniques. NEXT UP: Is the dead guy's name pronounced Jope, Jopee, or Jopé? Our man on the street let's *you* decide!"

Thank you! The restoration looks *outstanding*

Says it's coming "this Summer" from that facebook post. They're almost out of time to make that deadline.

Happens all the time in motion picture sales and licensing. At least we try to put together bundles we think people would be interested in and most of the time they do very well.

It's actually not confusing at all. Buy (insert title here) and every film in your catalog you add to the cart gets you (insert discount here). It's very simple. Example, buy Gates of Hell, and add any title to the cart, a 10% discount on entire order. Why not try that?

So, you don't "force" the customers to buy anything they don't want. Yup, that's okay

But the studios or rights holders "force" you to buy titles you don't want. Huh?

Shipping wise it's easier to pack/pre-pack 100 orders of the same 3 titles than 100 orders of 3 different items for each order.

To TheHorrorNerd, thank you for the info....

To David.... For crying out loud, who is awake at that time? That's just mean and you're not a mean person so don't do live feeds at 3am.... Dude.... Where's Demon Tom when you need him? Middle of the night.... I love those things and missing out sucks. Please don't do that again. 9pm Pacific cutoff for the ones you can keep under 30 minutes, okay? That's midnight for me, half the year.

For everyone.... I missed it. What happened?

If you've seen MMII, which looks amazing, then the comment that MMI is the new favourite of the restoring artists tells you all you need to know. It will look as close to perfect as it can, better than the clip on the computer screen, even better than MMII. I can't wait, but, still, I can, for whatever features they can gather.

ruined's day has been ruined.

[WillieMLF]

My apologies. I really haven't been keeping up with DFs GOH. I think I may have missed something. Didn't Arrow just release Gates of Hell? How is the DF version different? I'm pretty sure I just watched it a few months ago and I felt it looked pretty good.

I heard the DF release comes with a bonus feature of “Demon” Dave flexing un-ironically in a variety of singlets while Gates of Hell is piped into the room from a phone on loudspeaker

[WillieMLF]

I'm asking because the Arrow really looked quite good. In addition it was Arrow, and therefore packed to the gills with extras. Oh, and it wasn't $39.99 or whatever silly price was quoted before for the DF version.

Supporting Arrow is basically funding overseas terrorists
