^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.

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)

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!

*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.

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)

Thank you very much for posting that the 20% off coupon is good all day!

I called my local Big Lots yesterday and they confirmed that they were honoring the coupon all day, despite the "6 PM to 9 PM" restriction listed on the coupon.

So I stopped by this morning and picked up the following for $2.40 each + tax:

FX2
Hope and Glory
Storefront Hitchcock
Clean Slate
The End of Violence
Swamp Thing
Mayor of the Sunset Strip
Eat Drink Man Woman
The Saddest Music in the World

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.
