Everyone please feel free to head over to the mammaries game. There's a great final-20 underway, featuring many of your favourite twin-inflatables and the fine figures of womanhood that they are attached to.

Hadn't seen any of them, except for snippets of HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER. HPD is anamorphic in this set, so I'm happy.
Star Trek: Original Motion Picture Collection (Blu-ray) Treks I-VI
Eiger's meant to be dull and slow...apparently. Fairly passable John Williams score though.

Yeah, I hear EIGER's not the best. But it's got stuff I'm interested in: Clint Eastwood, 70's Europe, and moutainclimbing.

I should have bought the Dirty Harry/Magnum Force Blu-ray at Best Buy. But I got Stargate and American Psycho for 5 each at Target.
I tried watching STARGATE for the first time since the mid-90's. I was overcharged. This and the Ocean movies. Need to dispose of them.
Why the **** did I buy STARGATE?

I picked up a four pack of the first four Dirty Harry flicks for 10 bucks. DVD, no Blu.

I like Fielding's score for THE ENFORCER.
Not big on the ones after that.

Probably the opposite. I suppose I should seek out the Enforcer OST just to let the thing grow on me. Rather Schifrin had done it to allow some continuity or some such. Yes, seek it out and see if opinion can be swayed somewhat.

Ordered a used copy of Charley Varrick for 6 bucks. I love this film. It's on Netflix Instant, but I seem to watch it once a year now and want a copy to own. And to blow more money, I may get the Blu-ray for DIRTY HARRY and MAGNUM FORCE (as it's the cheapest option). I loved DIRTY HARRY that much.

The first 2 of 2012:
Monsters Vs Aliens 2 disc SE include the B.O.B short movie on disc 2. (Same construction as Shrek 4 2 disc SE. 2 keepcases in sleeve.)
Madagascar 2' 2 disc SE with sleeve. (2 disc's in one keepcase) Include a promotion sticker flyer from Monsters Vs Aliens.
Madagascar 2' 2 disc SE be very dificult to get because of the limited of it. Like Monsters Vs Aliens (Before i only saw it for to much money or bad shape or without the glases. ) i finaly fount it and seald.

I am pissed. I will never order from Amazon seller "MOVIEMARS" again. I ordered OBSESSION before New Years and it's still not here. I can track it, it's sitting a few counties from me in Cincinatti. It has been for a week. It's this DHL mail company.

My OBSESSION Blu-ray finally arrived after about three weeks. Would have taken a couple days using USPS, but it was shipped using DHL.
It's from Arrow Video in the UK and even has a copy of the script.

It's a nice package, that. I haven't been through the book but, if I recall correctly, it even contains an additional act that wasn't filmed.

I hear Bernie wouldn't score the film unless the third act wasn't shot. Or last act, or whatever.

CHARLEY VARRICK arrived promptly to my relief, after OBSESSION took weeks. Pity I don't have PRIME CUT yet as I wanted to do a PRIME CUT/CHARLEY VARRICK gritty-offbeat-Schifrin scored-70's-action-movie double bill.
They're not two of the greatest films ever, but two of the most enjoyable to me.
