Filth. Promising start and then thought the last 45 minutes seemed like two hours or more.

It depends on who you ask, I felt like the entire movie flew by and really enjoyed most of it.

Reminded me of Titanic. A love story against the backdrop of tragedy, poor boy from the wrong side of the tracks falls for the higher class girl

Not saying it was a bad movie. One worth watching but, just like in my opinion, man, first half was great and lost steam in the second half.

Filth...mixed feelings. was losing me here and there, but love McAvoy and he was riveting. loved the very last scene and the what i am sure is a coincidental nod to Wanted.

Was Amazed at just how bad this sucked. First the movie was only about 45 minutes long but all the stop-motion/slow motion photography doubled the length. For a demi-god he gets his ass kicked an awful lot in this movie 1/5

Draft Day does not come out on Blu-ray intil Sept 2?

Fading Gigolo

A Woody Allen movie to me though he did not direct or write it though he is a supporting actor.

If that was Sharon Stone or a body double nude she still has it!

Family Video puts them out when they get them. Who cares about release dates?

I read that was Sharon Stone and that she does still have it.

My local video store puts stuff out 2-3 weeks before street date. They don't give a fuck about official release dates. They've had Draft Day since last Thursday.

Anyways loved Draft Day

Bushido Man was unwatchable. Only made it about 30 minutes.

Are they screened copies, or the real deal?

He's mentioned this Mom & Pop store before, I'm sure it's legit.

Most retailers get this stuff a few weeks before it's supposed to be released, there's just big writing on the box saying not to put it out until a specific given date.

Home media is manufactured well in advance of its street date.

There's one a couple miles from my house, so every Friday afternoon I grab a couple titles. I usually stay away from brand new releases, higher prices, one night only rental. After a few weeks it will drop to $2.75 for 5 nights. After a several months (or a year) they drop to $1 for 5 nights

re: Last BD (or, unrealistically, HD DVD) you watched?

I'm familiar with Family Video, but didn't realize they had stores in the Rochester area.

I'm from Buffalo and we only had the video department in Wegmans, Blockbuster (formerly Video Factory), and Hollywood Video when I was growing up. No Mom & Pop shops. Movies Plus had closed sometime in the early 2000s. Rochester used to always seem to be the "test market" for stores before they came to the Buffalo area, so I wonder if they'll pop up there eventually.
