Recent DVD and Game Purchases!

Smallville Season 5 and The Batman Season 2

[Merey]

DVDs: Jeff Brady gave me his extra copies of Monty Python Live dvds. Man, it's awesome. Jeff rocks!

I'm renting Sports Night from Netflix right now. And I'm falling in love with Aaron Sorkin all over again.

Games: Hmm, do board games count? I bought the Trivial Pursuit DVD: Pop Culture Ed. for a board game night I hosted on Saturday. It's fun, but the dvd element doesn't come into play very often. In fact, the dvd part is pretty stupid.

Electronic games: I just bought Texas Hold'em for my video iPod from iTunes. I can't put it down, it's so freakin' good! I have yet to win a game, oh but I will, I WILL!

Footballers' Wives Season 3

[Zeb Oswalt]

Dvds X 3.Was an ok X-Men movie good if your a giant X-Man fan.


Blood Rayne. Yep I bought it. Was hoping if it was bad it Be Mystery Science 300 bad. Bad, but not bad enough to be funny. Still, How do you have Billy Zane, Ben Kingsley, Michael Man, & Meat Loaf and screw up a script so bad it bombs? Granted Ben Kingsley was a great vampire in it. But, it was just beyond bad and not in a funny way. Cassandra "Elvira" Peterson hosting this at 4 am, wouldn't even save it. Mostly the big names were Ben Kingsley and Mike Man. Oh and Blood Rayne was the woman from T3. This movie was just terable. Don't rent it. Don't watch the trailers. It's so Bad Ed Wood would be offended.


Oh and it came with the PC version of Blood Rayne 2. But, I hated the first game so I probably won't play it. Thanx for your time.

[Zeb Oswalt]

JLU Seaon One. Had two epasiods devoted to Huntress. 3 if you count the Question one. Why is the Question so much cooler in the cartoon than in the comic? Granted he was more like his Rochette conter part there than the cartoon. In the last Epasoids theres ebven an omoge to the Watch Men, ware Question asks Super Man if he told every one about the Evil JLA What woud he do fry him? Their ware also a few epasoids that had Huntress fighting in them. I liked the tapes. Though it was odd seeing Power Girl as a villan. Wel, sort of a villan. Great DVD set.


Oh and I bought Nacho Libre. How to put it nicely? I don't like that movie.

I got my girlfriend (and myself) a Nintendo wii earlier today. We've had a lot of fun playing wii sports. Unfortunately, we couldn't find a second controller. Hopefully some more will be in stores soon.

[chicainery]

Justice League Heroes for X-box

My girlfriend and I played through this game and really had fun. I've gotten her interested in comic books and video games and other cool things since we've been together. She had a blast being Wonder Woman, Superman, Hawkgirl and Flash. She doesn't much care for Martian Manhunter, though. She thinks he's ugly. I played mostly as Batman, Superman or Zatanna.

[The Beast Of Yucca Flats]

Finally got Season 2 of Batman Beyond today; I've always loved the music in the "April Moon" episode.

Marvel Ultimate Alliance

[Sarah Beach]

I'm working my way through the DVDs of Season 5 of 24, and loving it. The commentaries are cool too. Informative, but also amusing, as they were recording shortly after that specific episode aired, but before the whole season was shot (so some of the commentators don't know how things ended, heh).

I also got on DVD the Samurai Trilogy with Toshiro Mifune. But I haven't watched them yet. Looking forward to that. (Yes, I read subtitles. :) )

[LtMarvel]

Watched recent gift Wordplay. What great doc with super extra features.

[blackcanary_416]

[BlueThunderArmy]

Currently living in the UK while my console systems are in the US, so I've been a bit limited. I did import Final Fantasy III for DS, and picked up Marvel Ultimate Alliance for PSP. Gotta get my fix somehow!

For DVDs, just finished Spooks Season 4 (it's called MI-5 in the US), and I would definitely recommend that to fans of 24. Checked out Dr Who, but don't really see what the fuss is.

[Koben Kelly]

Just got a hold of a film by one of the creators of Blair Witch. I know, I know, I know. *groan* The biggest, cheapest, smash hit, that really didn't deliver anything, in decades.

Hold on. It actually kicks much ass. It's called Altered, and it's unlike any movie I've seen. The story involves a group of guys who had previously been abducted by extraterrestrials, and who had been mucked with for days. One of the guys never makes it back. The movie opens with three of the remaining four going into the woods with harpoons and bear traps and whatnot, in an attempt to capture of of the E.T.s. Guess what? It works, and they tape it up in blankets for transport to the fourth survivor's house. Unfortunately, the fourth guy wants nothing to do with it, under the premise that what humans do to wild animals that kill a human, the aliens will do to them. I don't want to spoil this for anyone, but it just gets crazier and crazier, gorier and gorier, and just downright NUTZ.

The alien is shown in minimal detail until the end. Sort of one of those instances where it's actually more creepy to not know.

I highly reccomend everyone see this. If you don't want to shell out the bucks to buy it, rent it via Netflix or Buster.

[Scott Iskow]

Just placed on order for the fourth season of Scrubs. In five-plus seasons, I think there was only one episode I didn't like. Everything else was effing gold!

[Fish Sauce]

Memento
Wayne's World
Pulp Fiction
Reservoir Dogs
The Castle
Snatch
This Is Spinal Tap
Anchorman
Snakes On A Plane

[Fish Sauce]

I just got Arrested Development Season 1 and 2 on DVD. Now I can't stop telling people that I've seen seven nipples today...

I looked everywhere for Season 1 but couldn't find it. No joke, I looked in two towns and a city in one state and another city in another state. Nowhere to be found, but Season 3 was everywhere and I occasionally saw Season 2.

But here's my question.

HOW THE F*@& CAN I WATCH SEASON TWO OR THREE WITHOUT HAVING SEEN SEASON ONE?!??!?

I swear, I wanted to give these places my money, but they just didn't want it.

[Rachel Edidin]

Finally got around to watching Hellboy Animated: Sword of Storms. It's very snazzy, and it both gets Abe right AND gives Kate a lot of screentime, so I'm happy.

[GloryQuest]

Order the DVD for Kelly's Heroes. :D

[Sven Mesman]

The last game i got was World of warcraft: the burning crusade. So much for my spare time then :D

Wal*Mart has a two pack that comes with a digest-sized Animated Hellboy comic (and the one inside the DVD, too).

Tonight I start my conquest of all other nations.

[4thHorseman]

Picked up The Grudge 2 (stupidest movie ever), and a Jungle Horror Pack featuring "Eaten Alive", "Jungle Holocaust" and some other film.

Only watched Eaten Alive of the three, but it was actually pretty cool.


EDIT: Oh, also picked up Jacobs Ladder. Heard a lot of good things, but wasn't as good as I expected.

[mgs]

last thing i got was the uk release of the Descent. the ending makes it all worthwhile. and the making of... was pretty cool too.

[public defender]

Shut Up and Sing...which was buried in the back of Best Buy, behind the blank cds with the concert dvds. Meanwhile, Jesus Camp was front and center in the Documentary section.

Also bought a copy of Casino Royale, because Moose Baumann told me it was a must see, even for non-Bond fans such as myself.


This coming week a new WC Fields collection comes out, and I've preordered it on Amazon. I love the Great Man. He's awesome.

[Joshua Pantalleresco]

It's been final fantasy centric lately for me. First I got Final Fantasy XII...in a word...Crack. Total crack.

Nope. JLU Season One has Gail's "Double Date" episode.

[mgs]

Nope. JLU Season One has Gail's "Double Date" episode.

ah, cool. thanks again. :) I'll definitely be getting that season now.

[Night Swordsman]

I do not know if this counts,as it is neither a Game or DVD. It is some ancient device known as a "book".

Bought two of them: White Knight by Jim Butcher,vol. 9 of the Dresden Files,and Fragile Things by Neil Gaiman. Both were fun reads.


Oh fine. I also bought Volume 3 of Greatest American Hero on DVD. Better? :rolleyes:

It sounds as if it is a fantastic dvd package with a real look at Brooks' unique life.

OH! And how could I forget?! I got "The Double Life of Veronique" as well. I saw this film like a long time ago. I've been waiting for it on DVD forEVER! Finally Criterion has it (they rule) and I can get it.

Kieslowsky made some of my favorite films. And he worked fantastically with Irene Jacob. Kieslowsky/Jacob and Pabst/Brooks were two GREAT combos. I am looking forward to seeing "Veronique" for the first time in a while, and seeing "Pandora's Box" for the first time ever.

Legend Of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass

[Weetomuncher]

I'm just back from the local Blockbuster after buying Fantastic Four : Rise Of The Silver Surfer which came out today in the UK.

I really enjoyed the first FF movie so it should be pretty good.

[LtMarvel]

Didn't see the reviews, did ya?

[The Beast Of Yucca Flats]

...The-Trades is running a contest to celebrate their 10th anniversary. Two contests, actually, in addition to the weekly giveaways. The first one is a collection of 30 titles -> http://www.the-trades.com/article.php?id=5822

The other is a stack of movie posters -> http://www.the-trades.com/article.php?id=5823 <- but I figure people like shiny round discs more. :)

[Gladiaria_Alata]

Hum. Atelier Iris 2 and Star Ocean for me today.

[Weetomuncher]

I bought the Spider-Man trilogy box set a few days ago.

[Zeb Oswalt]

Oblivion. Great game, but they forgotr to end it. It's like a muliti player onlimne game for the 360. Even when you beat the game it keeps on going.

Spider Man Friend or foe.

Aua Man the 60s cartoon. I feel sorry for Ted Knight on the plus side it helps me sleep. I watch this DVD and I fall right asleep.

Mind of Mensea the 3 rd sesoin.

Super Powers team the Galactic Gaurdens. This was a fun DVD.

[Gilda Dent]

Spider-Man 1-3 boxed set on Blu-Ray.

I've only watched one so far, but they look and sound awesome.

[Zeb Oswalt]

Spider Man 3. I liked it and the New Goblen. Also I got SDpder Man Friend or Foe for the X Box 360 and beat the game. Not sure why with working all said villans the main villan that's the great evil your fighting in the game is Mystero, but still it's a good game.

[Josh S]

Mullholland Drive
Twin Peaks: Definitive Gold Box Edition

[Chris Hansbrough]

lately it's been Phoenix Wright : Ace Attorney 3 Trials and Tribulations and Virtua Fighter 5 online......I normally don't like fighting games but fr some reason I've always loved virtua fighter due to it's concentration on complexity and forcing of mastery. I love mastering things so having a fighting system that's more about being smart and knowing what moves to use in which situation rather than combos, button mashing, and reversals is awesome. I love playing a fighting game that forces me to be smart.

Oh I've also been playing a lot of Puzzle Quest again as well as Puzzle Fighter 2 Turbo on my x-box live. I love me some puzzle fighter.

[Josh S]

I didn't buy it, but a guy at work gave me Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction. I gave him Ninja Gaiden Sigma. I'm all for challenging games, but that shit was just too difficult for me.

[mgs]

Today I picked up the 2 disc set from 1408, the 6th season of Scrubs, Joe Dirt, Ace Ventrua: Pet Detective, and The Matrix: Reloaded. The last 3 were pretty cheap so... ;)

Mullholland Drive
Twin Peaks: Definitive Gold Box Edition

Hey, how are those? Esp. the Twin Peaks one? I was thinking about it, but it's too expensive and I already have all the dvd's from the show. I read the box for the extras, but are they worth it? Thanks. :)

I've not watched Mullholland Drive since I bought it. I saw it when it first came to DVD, but I don't remember much about it other than enjoying it despite being confused. As for Twin Peaks, I've only watched the pilot and the first four or five episodes. No special features, yet. When I get there I'll let you know, though.

By the way, if you're not aware it's only $64 dollars at DeepDiscount and with their upcoming (currently running?) Fall Sale it'll be really close to $50. I paid $90 at Best Buy because patience is not one of my strong points.

[neutronjockey]

I've been recycling the Transformers movie on my laptop...because nothing wastes an afternoon better like alien robot ninja ass kickin'.

The Upright Citizens Brigade Season 2 (finally!)

"Yeehaw! Yeehaw!"

[Monkey Boy]

I just picked up a copy of Mass Effect for the 360 and I absolutely love it. This game is so much fun.

[Josh S]

I picked up Knocked Up (which is a little disappointing), Superbad (which is pretty funny) and Assassin's Creed for the PS3 (which I just started).

[Ivan P]

The Simpsons Movie

The film itself is really good, though the special features are pretty terrible.

[Stressfactor]

Picked up the Doctor Who: Lost in Time DVD box set with the William Hartenell and Patrick Troughton years.

Got iced in on Sunday and finished the William Hartnell disc -- including all the special features. Looks like I might get iced in on Tuesday as well so I'm saving the Troughton stuff for then.

Damn the BBC for erasing parts of these. Twelve parts to "The Daleks' Master Plan" and all we get left are three epsiodes?! Still, lots of good actors and good acting to be found here, as well as some amusing goofs and lovely, typical Classic "Who" cheap sets, and great seeing some actors and actresses when they were young.

[Chris Hansbrough]

Finally bought Call of Doody 4......was really excited to play as all my friends are playing and seem to love it.....I want my money back for this overhyped pile of doody.....Don't know why but I'm finding it a complete chore to play and not fun at all after the initial 5 minutes of wow it's gorgeous and looks pretty.....but it's also shallow as all get out

[Cayman]

Dragon Quest Monsters: Joker for DS.

I think it's a lot of fun. It's sort of a Pokemon/Final Fantasy hybrid.

[The Beast Of Yucca Flats]

Finally got a copy of Hellboy 2-Disc Special Edition.

[Josh S]

The Simpsons Movie
Cooking Mama DS

[DungeonmasterJim]

Call of Duty 4, baby!

My only problem is that there are soooooo many colors that I have trouble determining bad guys from good guys in multi-player! Eek!

I love blowing people up with the grenade launcher.

No, not Halo 3, Halo 1. Via Xbox Originals download. Never played the original, and I have to say, it holds up beautifully.

start with the present series and go backwards.

[cedardryad]

Call of Duty 4! Wonderful game. And can I say how not having multiplayer achievement is a minor yet surprisingly great thing to do?

[Stressfactor]

Is there ANY way to get into Doctor Who if I have never seen an episode before?

Actually, what I recommend is that they start with the first episode of any of the new Doctors. There is usually a little recap to transition and then the new actor sets about immediately making the role his own. If you like what you see then follow that Doctor up until his regeneration and then pick a new Doctor.

What makes things hard is that the BBC is not putting the stories out on DVD in order. Therefore you can get box sets of all the episodes from the series relaunch in 2005 but stuff before that is put out based on some format that makes sense only to the BBC. For example, this year alone it looks like fans are going to get stories from Jon Pertwee's tenure, Tom Baker's, and William Hartnell's.

Stop by Wikipedia for some good background or one of the myriad Doctor Who fansites and they usually have a kind of 'beginner's guide to Doctor Who' that can catch you up to speed so you can jump in almost anywhere.

[Stressfactor]

Part of my Christmas swag included my holy grail of DVD box sets.... "The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr." I'm almost halfway through the set already and this series was even funnier, wittier, better written, and better than I remembered. I'll give props to the WB for finally releasing this one!

BIOSHOCK IS A BEAUTIFUL GAME. It forced me to shell out $400 for a 360. I'm a nintendo guy, and I used to hate fps games. Now I'm hooked.

[Zeb Oswalt]

War a great movie. And the Hammer horror series. It's got 8 clasic hammer films. I bought it for Night Creatures. Couldn't find the Desney DVDS about the Scare crow. And theres something cool about Peter Cushing playing the Scare Crow. They changed his name from Dr. Synn to Dr. Blyss so desney wouldn't sew. The rest of the characters stasy simnce everyu thing else was P.D. he's still called Captain Cleg. In his old life. And they gave him back the daughter as was in the book. And removed the son Desney added. Well, he had a son too in the book, but never finds him. Any way it's a great DVD collection. And I think this is the only Super hero DVD Hammer ever put out. It also has a lot Hammer clasics. Bries of Dracula, The curse of the ware wolf, Phantom of the Opers, Paranoiac, The Kiss of the Vampire, The Evil of Frankenstein. Saddly no Camarilla or Dracula stil;l a great collection. I got it for Night Creatchers couldn't find it by it's self so I got the whole thing. It was called Night Creatrchers since they had planed to turn the book I am Legend into a movie, but England said it was to horiffic to be masde atr the time and they wouldn't let hammer.


So insteed they took the Dr. Synn alasas the Scarcrow books and made a movie about the Revand anti hero super hero. The othewr movies are good too. The horror movies fit in the classic horror mode so if yoyu like Saw this is not the collection for you. Their horror movies not gore. But, if you see Beli Logssis Dracula as the greatest Drac movie then you might like these.

[Pink Bat Maxine]

Call of Duty 4.

I've resisted thus long 'cause I prefer my war shooters to be historic, not contemporary, but WOW, what a game this is!!!!!

[tangentman]

Tomorrow it's released.... NEW SUPER FRIENDS DVD! 'The All New Super Friends Hour'.

I love the adventure shorts, but I wish they'd show some of the PSAs, and 'fun on a rainy day' segments. I wanna see Batman & Robin teach me how to make popsicles with juice, an ice tray, cellophane and tooth picks and Wonder Woman teach me magic! Also, hopefully there'll be some Wonder Twin shorts.

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe: season 1

One of my favorite cartoons of my childhood!

[ForkedTongue]

Kingdom Under Fire: Circle Of Doom - I liked the demo and I like slicing little lizard dudes with really big swords. I am currently leveling up my Japanese-Goth-with-a-Spanish-accent-vampire-prince guy.

Zodiac: The Director's Cut - I deliberately avoided seeing this in theaters or on it's initial DVD release because I heard about the director's cut. The doc on the second disc is really, really good. All interviews, no narration. Man, my heart damn near broke listening to some of the policemen describe the crime scenes and finding the victims.

[drnorge]

Is there ANY way to get into Doctor Who if I have never seen an episode before?

I agree with the other comments posted here. I would add that the current 3 seasons should be started at the beginning as each series was 13 episodes long but refers back to events in the beginning of the season. Clever writing and great characters.

I have to pick this up. I have the the Super Friends DVDs from the pre-Wonder Twins era, but I prefer the Wonder Twins. I love the PSAs and 'fun on rainy days' segments also. I saw one recently where Wonder Woman was telling kids not to chew on pencils because ty contained lead. It was hilarious.
