^I enjoyed Boxcar and Kentuckian, I watched them this week.

Is the Bucket of Blood DVD the correct IAR?

IMDb has the IAR as 1.66:1 but every review I found seemed to think 1.37:1 was correct.

^Everywhere I read lists the OAR as 1.37:1, even IMDb.

While out running around today, I picked up Code of Silence with Chuck Norris for $3.00 at the Kettering, OH store. I had passed on it earlier but then last night I read the reviews on Amazon and decided to pick it up after all...

One has to click on IMDb's technical specs section for the complete info. For some reason, they only list the first aspect ratio listed from that section on the titles main page.


Aspect ratio
1.37 : 1 (negative ratio)
1.66 : 1 (intended ratio)

Here's what I picked up today at Big Lots near the Mid Rivers Mall in St. Louis...

"X" The Man With the X-Ray Eyes
Frogs
A Bucket of Blood
Swamp Thing
Konga
Rollerball
The Brood

Just picked up a 20% off coupon today at BL and was told its vaid all day Sunday not just 6-9pm. I think I will hit the store in the morning and get some of the titles I was holding off on.

Thanks for that link! In all the time I've used them I've never noticed the "more" link nor knew it gave more technical detail about the film!

They restocked the HBO titles at mine. I picked up a few of the other titles mentioned plus Cracker: Series Three :up:

red5bv06 07-20-08 04:14 AM

I just saw The Comeback: Complete Series for 3$. Don't think I've seen it mentioned here before.

*snap* I looked at my local BL and didn't see that season of Cracker. I will have to keep an eye out for that.

I ended up snagging:

Shot in the Dark
Man with X-Ray Eyes
Dennis Miller: Raw Feed
Bucket of Blood
Konga

It's been mentioned & it's been around since the first HBO sets hit. I've bought several to give out for gifts.

Now if they would only get Series Two. I hate to watch shows out of order.

Yes, left you a PM.

Checked 5 stores and came away with 32 titles.

Of those titles, the only one I don't see on the master list is A Night in the Life of Jimmy Reardon (1988, River Phoenix)

the big lots i hit finally had dvds. the problem was they were strewn to the 7 winds. stacked all which way. Some on rows so short you couldnt get them out, I dont know how the hell they got them in there to begin with.

Saw a few full metal alchemists but not enough for me to try and piece the series together. Also saw Samurai 7, but only 3 of them. I aborted on the hunt. As i was walking away, saw species3 in the sampoo aisle. For the $2.40 i was going to spend i decided what the hell, the movie plus commentary will be worth a laugh.

Reddye5 07-20-08 09:38 PM

Couldn't resist 20%. Went back and picked up:

Bucket of Blood
Breaker Breaker
Auto Focus
Dangerous Game (Abel Ferrara)
Amityville Horror (orig SE)
CQ: SE
Roadie
