The only way that Elephant Man cover could be worse is if they put tusks, a trunk, and giant ears on him.

(Which, to be quite honest, wouldn't surprise me if they did.)

Received my 8 DVDs today (along with Street Trash from a seperate order) -- only one loose disc, and it was undamaged. I got new covers on the Elephant Man, 3 Days of the Condor, and Days of Heaven; the original artwork was better on each, but it's not really a big deal to me. The spine is what shows 99% of the time.

My order came in today. The is the fastest I've ever gotten a shipment from DDD. Actually the last couple of shipments have been faster than usual.

Great blind buys, Gamelore. I don't think you'll be disappointed in any of them.

Trying to resist this sale...probably not succeeding...

Yeah, the new cover is really terrible and ugly. The only thing keeping me from being very upset is that it cost me $3. My copy of Play It Again, Sam also has a new, and much inferior cover. Oh well though.

Since I'm a bit lazy I wondered if anyone could tell me which movies in this sale apart from Once upon a time in the West and Chinatown are on the IMDB top 250?

IMDB top 250 is a piss poor list. Please tell me you're not trying to buy all of the films on that list are you?

The new cover for the Elephant Man is the worst cover of all time.
