Their website layout is horrible.

Yeah, their categories are bizarre, I've never bought anything there from browsing, it's always been because I was looking for something specific.

Is Gravity Falls pretty good? Barely heard of this animated series but seems kinda eccentrically funny from reading reviews.

milo bloom

Yes, absolutely. Kinda like a Twin Peaks for the younger crowd. Lots of monster of the week episodes, but with a long running story arc in the background. Grunkle Stan is one of the best misanthrope characters of the last couple decades.


Have you watched The Owl House on Disney ? The person running that show is the partner of the Gravity Falls showrunner and it shares some similarities (and voice actors).

DVD Polizei

Oh yeah, nice. Gonna order!

Shout Factory has a pretty terrific sale on box sets going on from now through April 21st.

Friday the 13th is a particular standout at $79.99 for their colossal collection. And if you're into Kamen Rider, Kuuga and Zero One are $29.99, which is lower than I believe I've ever seen 'em. (And also on the toku front, they're DVDs, but a bunch of Super Sentai collections are $23.99-$29.99 right now.)

That is a good sale. I highly recommend the Decline of Western Civilization box on blu-ray, 29.99 is a great price for that one.

I really enjoyed those Universal Horror Blu-ray sets and $34.99 is a much more reasonable price. Some very good commentaries on many of them.

I held off for so long but finally got a couple of the Universal Horror sets. Hopefully my will power will let me just have the couple with movies I'm specifically interested in lol

SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN set !

MooMooMooMoo

At least there seems to be no tax. Shipping is $7 unless you order $50.

PhantomStranger

I already own way too many of the sets listed in the sale, lol. About the only thing I could still pick up is the Billy Jack collection, but I've never even seen anything but the first movie.

TomOpus

Damn. Decisions decisions. There's a boxset on sale for $49 that's usually $70. It's a "best of..." collection but I can't find a listing of which episodes are included and I'm looking for one specific episode. The separate season I'm looking for isn't available. Do I spend $49 on the possibility it's included?

Are you talking about Loretta Young? If so, the DVDTalk review has the episode lists: https://www.dvdtalk.com/reviews/5916...mplete-series/

TomOpus

I did a Google search but it didn't pop up. Thank you, you saved me $50 because the episode wasn't listed. I never would think this site would've reviewed such a old obscure show. Maybe one of these days they'll release all seasons but I would doubt it in the current situation of declining sales. I Googled the specific episode and it same up being on Plex but when I clicked it said "We could not find anywhere to view this title currently"

I actually just want to watch it once. I, supposedly appeared on it when I was an infant in my mom's attempt to get me into tv. I had a portfolio and one of the few surviving photos had that written on the back for whomever to see I had experience.

I picked up the Star Trek Captains collection with extra disk and The Glass Key, a movie not in the sale. I picked The Captains up when I saw the prices of the regular set at other stores..

Really would love Shout! stuff to come with digital copies

DJariya

I don't think that's possible. Shout is a boutique label that licenses studio content for their line of physical media. The digital codes are an entirely separate thing and probably only licensed through the studio. I mean you can get Bill and Ted on Vudu.

The 1986 Transformers cartoon did have a digital movie file code. But, it was not supported by MA or Vudu. It was a downloadable digital file. I tried to sell it off here, but no one wanted it because it wasn't compatible with any service.

Josh-da-man

Yeah, I'm sure that digital codes are a whole separate licensing issue when it comes to boutique labels like Criterion, Arrow, and Shout/Scream. To include a digital code, they'd probably have to buy them separately from the rights to produce a disc, and that would add an extra ten or twenty dollars to the retail price.

IBJoel

I'm sure it is a licensing thing, it's just annoying that I bought all these John Carpenter Blu-rays, but now I can't watch them because my TV has kind of crapped out.

Spiderbite

I want the Halloween 4K Collection to complete my set, but I just know that they will have it for 50 bucks or less this October if I pull the trigger now.

Really wish they did a Steelbook for all their 4K releases. Since I have scaled back my purchases and just buy very few 4K discs, the ones I do get are almost always in a Steelbook. Not a dealbreaker but they look nice.
