Bullets 'n' Babes

R1 Jersey Girl
R1 Bon Voyage (2004, France)
R1 Fat City (1970, USA)
Some other I can't recall at moment.

EDIT:
R1 Dream with the Fishes (1997, USA)

Flower Island (R3 KR)
Days of Being Wild (R3 KR)
Address Unknown (R3 KR / 2 Disc)
Takeshis' (R2J
Getting Any (R1)
Violent Cop (Eastern Eye)
Boiling Point (Eastern Eye)

I finally gave up with those Kitanos. Maybe I'll update to the R2J's some day, but right now I just want to see those films. I hope the R4's don't look as bad as they do in dvdbeaver's screencaps...

Hung, you sure have spent a lot of money today with all these DVDs including an expensive ass R2J. Personally, I'll be waiting for the HK disc of "Takeshis'".

Good decision. I love that film.

I didn't order them all today But they sure weren't cheap. Let's see:

Flower Island + Days of Being Wild + Address Unknown + shipping = 36,25€
Takeshis' + shipping = 27,77€
Getting Any + shipping = 26,58€
Violent Cop + Boiling Point = 37,95€

= 128.55€ / 155.4$ / 89.2£ in total... Damn, I didn't realize it was that much.

I'm trying complete some collections. I realized I own about 300 dvds, yet I don't have a single perfect collection (by director, actor etc.) and decided to do something about it. Now I'm only missing Brother from Kitano (which I'm gonna order soon).

Same thing with Kim Ki-Duk, Shunji Iwai and Wong Kar Wai. Though their filmographies include some titles not available on dvd, so those collection won't be "perfect".

I thought the EE of Gladiator was 3 discs?

The Muppet Show: S1 (Disc 1) from cd-wow rental service.

...but is cut by 13 minutes... (isnt it?)

3minutes 15seconds.

Ow oki, thanks. I misread an earlier post on the subject then. Still sucks ofcourse, but it's less annoying then 13 minutes I guess.
Personally I've never seen the movie, just the trailer, and judiging from (only) that it doesnt seem like a movie I'd particularly enjoy...
I'm not much of a gore-fan. I dont mind gore in good movies, but the clip of a guy hanging in meathooks... hmmm... not too tasty...

Well, it is gory. I take it you have seen the Premier Asia-trailer which really focusses on the gory parts. But most gory scenes are really made kinda comedic. Hard to believe, I know, but the way the scenes were shot, it is easy to say that most of them are supposed to make you smile. Like Ichi entering a room and we only see blood and body parts flying out of the door.

It's HK version that is cut by 13 minutes

And yeah, as strange as it may sound, the best (okay, maybe not) adjective to describe Ichi is "amusing". That's how I felt... Or maybe I'm just a sick and twisted person... :twisted:

Aw, thanks for the extra info on the movie. I might pick it up then if I happen to come across it when it's on sale (about 10 euro orso...)
I've heard many positive things about it, but like I said, the trailer kinda put me off...

In The Realm of the Senses (1976) R2 from CD WOW rentals

BTW I think the UK DVD uses a French (?) print, and it looks quite a good transfer

I had to send the DVD back though, it refised to play after 12 minutes

Isn't the UK dvd optically censored?

Yes, (or reframed) but its' only scene (I think). Its not cut any other way.

A nearly broken nose

But it's a GOOD film. Not a great one, but definitely good.

Yes it is. People have been disagreeing with me, but the inconsequent ending ruined it to me.

the shawshank redemption only £2:99 from hmv

How the hell can you afford these Eva? Let's look at the evidence:

a: You're a student.
b: You're in NZ and are getting screwed by the exchange rate.
