I picked up Private Resort (Johnny Depp) and The Hitchhiker: Volume 1 yesterday. I never would've thought about going into Big Lots for anything until I finally decided to peruse this thread. Very cool.
sstevens75: I just sent you a private message re: a trade. |
finally picked up some new stuff...
i got Reverse of The Curse of the Bambino and Bad Education... almost got a Pope John Paul II dvd, Crouching Tiger Superbit and Capturing the Friedmans but I passed at the last second. I may go back. |
The Rock and Roll High School appeared at my store today
|
I picked up the Rock 'n' Roll High School disc and from what I've researched, it appears that possibly the same transfer and audio have been ported from this release, to the New Concorde release, to the Buena Vista release (which claims it's anamorphic but isn't).
|
This evening I got:
- Mom And Dad Save The World - The Hitcher - The Night Flier - Taxicab Confessions: New York - Dennis Miller: The Raw Feed - Chris Rock: Never Scared - David Spade: Take The Hit |

Picked up these HBO titles at the Douglasville (GA) Big Lots today for $3 each:
Elephant Angels in America Maria Full of Grace Norma Jean and Marilyn The Comeback The Changeling (with G. C. Scott) Cracker series one For anyone looking for something worthwhile to pick up, I will again recommend Still Crazy (be sure to get the flipper with both WS and FS versions, not the FS only). Think Spinal Tap but played more or less straight, with some funny moments, good faux-1970s rock songs, and a great cast (featuring Stephen Rea, Billy Connolly, Timothy Spall, and especially Bill Nighy). Well worth $3 IMHO. |

This afternoon I picked up:
USS Poseidon: Phantom Below (Adrian Paul & Mike Doyle) The Tenants (Dylan McDermott & Snoop Dogg) Gattaca (Superbit) Junebug Dawson's Creek: The Series Finale $3 each. |
Yesterday I finally found "Empire Falls", but both copies were stomped on and or used to crush walnuts. I passed.

Episodes have occasionally displayed male nudity. Louis C.K. stated on his message board that there would not be female nudity on the show, claiming "Female nudity isn't funny" because you can't "laugh and jerk off at the same time". |
I got extra copies of the following for Trade:
The Comeback Lucky Louie The Best of Arliss I am looking to trade for Angels in America (I am looking for two copies if possible) and The Iron Giant - Special Edition. I know it's been a while on Iron Giant but I heard others found it at Big Lots a while back. I'm not sure if anyone has found Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam: Chapter 5 but if anyone has I need to get that to finish off my collection so a definite trade exists there as well. |

I have thirty days to return it. |
Rock N Roll High School I believe is the same during the feature, but the new release has a couple of short featurettes. The original release had a great booklet though, so I would buy it for $3. In fact, when I sold the old version I kept the insert.

I picked up The Comeback (blind buy) and Lucky Louie, as well as Autofocus. I have never seen so many DVD's at my BL before. They had a full 4-sided display, plus an entire display pallet with boxes double stacked. And I looked through every single DVD. Took a while, but I left happy...
