[General Discussion] Your Latest Media Purchase (DVD/CD etc)

Spring-time sales at music stores are always bad news for me.

DVDs

24 Season 2 - It was half price. Half price. I couldn't NOT buy it.

Indiana Jones Boxed Set - Been wanting this for some time, but just never got around to buying it. Finally decided to pick it up, take it too the till and find out that it's $20 off. Sweet. Definately my second favourite trilogy of all time (after Star Wars naturally, and just ahead of Back to the Future).

Commando - Notorious as Arnold's most violent movie. More than 100 people dead in 88 minutes. Never has 80s action been so bad (and so good).

Ocean's Eleven - Again, another one that I've been wanting to buy, but haven't got around too. While Ocean's 12 may be nothing more than some rich people's vacation film, Ocean's 11 is one damn good heist movie.

Daredevil Director's Cut - I really don't get why this movie gets all the shit it does. It wasn't that bad. Not half as bad as Fantastic Four. Sure Elektra, Bullseye, and Kingpin are horribly cast. But I'll go on record and say that Affleck did a damn good job with Matt Murdock. And hell, for the $6 I paid for it (go sales), if I watch it once, it's paid for itself.

Lion King - Since it's "back in the vault" (fucking Disney) I had to get it second hand from a pawn shop. Case is a little beat up but the DVDs are fine (after a little cleaning). Still my favourite Disney movie ever.

CDs

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium - I like it. I don't love it. I don't hate it. But I like it. While I adore Dani California, I wasn't that impressed with it the first time I heard it. But it's slowly growing on me. I do however wish there was a little more upbeat funk, and little less slower stuff.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magick - For some reason I never actually owned a copy of this. But now this is more like it. Much, much more funky and harder. Easily their best album.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

It's where I got mine last week.

Sometimes I love HMV's randomness. $36.99 for some random CD. The next week it's $9.99. I almost never buy anything from them that isn't on sale or from the 2/3 for $20/$30 racks, but with that stuff I always get great deals.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I went a little nuts the past week.

Jaws 30th Anniversary Edition - I love Jaws. I absolutely adore this movie, and Best Buy had the 2 disc special edition for $15 so I had to pick it up.

Reservoir Dogs Tenth Anniversary Edition - Still the best Tarantino movie. Better than Kill Bill, better than Pulp Fiction and Jackie Brown. Again, got this in a two for $30 deal with...

Apollo 13 2 disc Anniversary Editon - Always enjoyed it, probably my second favourite Tom Hanks movie (behind Forrest Gump).

Caddyshack - Four dollars. I got the 20th aniversary Caddyshack for four dollars. I couldn't NOT buy it.

The Shining - Again, a great deal. This one for eight bucks. All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.

Predator Special Editon - Get to the choppa! Part 1 of 3 for $30.

Speed Collectors Edition - Pop quiz hotshot! Part 2 of 3 for $30.

Aliens Special Editon - Nuke it from orbit, it's the only way to be sure. Part 3 of 3 for $30.

Aladdin - My second favourite Disney movie. Gotta snatch it up before it goes back in the vault. Like...

Fantasia 2000 - Found a still sealed copy at a flea market of this. Since it has gone "back in the vault" and probably won't see a release for quite some time, I had to grab it. I'm not telling you what I paid for it.

Toy Story - While 2 is good, the first one is still the best. Maybe my third favourite Tom Hanks movie.

The Usual Suspects - Been looking for a reasonably priced copy for quite some time. HMV had it for $36. Found it at Best Buy for $21. Had to buy it. Kobayashi.


Jesus christ. I've bought 12 DVDs in the past few weeks. Im buying them faster than I'm watching them.

Most amazing jew boots

Justice League: Season Two - Because really, DC animation rocks. And Justice League is probably the best of the bunch.

Fast Times at Ridgemont High: Totally Awesome Edition - I really don't know why I didnt already own this. Saw it on sale at Best Buy and had to pick it up. Phoebe Cates FTW.

GoodFellas Special Editon - Amazing mobster movie. Definately one of my favourites.

Shaun of the Dead - Another one that I was surprised not to own. You've got red on you.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Kill Bill vol. 1 and 2 for $18 bucks. I was going to wait for the nodoubt-going-to-be-announced-tommorow-because-I-bought-the-standard-edition-DVD's set, but for both movies for so cheap, I had to take it.
Matrix: Revolutions - While it's easily my least liked of the trilogy, I do already own the other two and felt I needed to complete the collection. Add to that it was only 8 bucks. Hey, atleast the Neo/Smith fight is pretty cool.

Metallica - Kill 'em All - Don't own it for some reason, and it was on sale.

Ramones - Greatest Hits - Same sale as Metallica.

V for Vendetta Special Edition - I enjoyed it in theaters, and it as worht a purchase.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Simpsons Season 8 - Most likely going to be the last Simpsons boxed set that I buy. The last great season was 7, with 8 being alright but already starting to slip a little bit. 9 is where it started to go south. Still though, some gems on this one. Homer vs the Eighteenth Amedment and The Brother From Another Series really stand out.

Best Buy also didn't have any Animaniacs, and thus I was very displeased.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
