RE: De Niro 5 disc boxset for $7.87 @ Amazon.com!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

No problem. Unfortunately they`ve already screwed us.

Log in to check the order status and it will give you the option of paying the full 70 odd dollars or canceling the order =(

Oh well, nice while it lasted.

RE: De Niro 5 disc boxset for $7.87 @ Amazon.com!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only reason I posted it was because it was already at the #1 sales spot. No harm done here.

Got the first Hotdog Magazine today!

Thanks to whoever posted that bargain. A free subscription, can`t be bad.

RE: Simpsons £17.99 @ Play247

Yeah I heard they have this trick where they recover the ashes from burnt reciepts and piece them together. Under a strong light you can still make out the card number. No s***!

RE: Beware of Beadle - LG dvd player & 20 dvd`s offer!

Sorry, but what`s shady about this offer? He`s offering a legitimate deal. Sure most of the titles are s*** but what do you expect for that price?

The only reason you`re seeing these things being sold in QXL and Loot is because people are buying them and hoping to make a profit selling them on. It`s no big deal.

RE: movies you like which no-one else does...

eXistenz

I thought it was way wayyyy better than The Matrix

RE: Is the DVD Phenomenon Over ?

Saying "Is the DVD Phenomenon Over ?" is like someone in 1995 saying "Is the Internet Phenomenon Over".... namely.. fecking stupid.

RE: Funniest movie moments

The first thing that pops into mind is the bit in There`s Something About Mary where he gets his testicle caught in the zipper and the whole neighbourhood gets involved. Classic.

RE: So few bargains...

This is true. Mind you, most of the pee-your-pants bargains are/were pricing cockups on the DVD websites, maybe they`ve all sorted out their pricing systems or something.

RE: Beastie Boys Anthology (2 Disc) £23.00 all in @ EzyDVD

(taken from http://www.dvdeastereggs.com)

At the main menu scroll down to Schematic Overview and click on it. Then press the right arrow button on your remote 5 times. Now select the color bars box by pressing down on your remote. As you watch the color bars you`ll hear a funny audio clip with Spike Jonze. Works on either dvd.

Hours of fun!

RE: Evolution

That`s my whole point, the whole damn movie was immature. Ok so I`m probably a little immature finding anus jokes particularly funny but the only person who laughed at the cinema was this 5 year old kid sitting behind me. It`s a kids movie.

RE: What is the worst DVD you have wasted you cash on.

OT:

South Park was never intended for kids. They`ve maintained that it`s made for adults from the beginning. That`s the reason for the 15 certificate on the front of the video.

RE: Evolution

I saw it today.. thought it was a complete pile of s*** actually. Some of the cast were good, Dan Akroyd could have got a funnier role. There was just nothing original in there and the script frankly sucked. Thank god for anus jokes otherwise I wouldn`t have laughed once.

RE: FMD-A REPLACEMENT FOR DVD???

I think the next step in home cinema technology should be 3D VIDEO. It seems to be the only thing that we haven`t done. Fair enough we have a couple of iMax cinemas but the movies are crap.

Of course this would take up a LOT more storage space so we`d have to kiss DVD goodbye but I can`t see this happening for at least another 15 years.

RE: What is the worst DVD you have wasted you cash on.

Devil`s Advocate... I`ve only got about 7 movies but this is easily the worst of them all.

Xenon: I`d gladly swap this donkey turd for your pile of steaming crap any day.

RE: Couching Dragon Hidden What?

strange.. i`d say i`m really into movies.. ok well not nearly as much as some of you movie buffs but i have nearly always seen at least 2 of the movies on at the cinema, but i`d never even heard of this movie until about a week ago?

Couching Dragon Hidden What?

What`s so special about this movie? Almost every DVD site I go to has it featured on the main page and it`s been mentioned on these boards a few times too. What`s all the fuss about?

RE: John Candy - Why no R2 DVD`s??

Maybe I wasn`t looking hard enough. I had eBay open in another window searching for "DVD" and the first one I see is "Planes, Trains and Automobiles". Ironic.

John Candy - Why no R2 DVD`s??

Being one of my favourite comedy actors, I would like to get at least one of John Candy`s movies on DVD. I`ve been looking around but he seems to have been erased from movie history as far as DVD goes (R2 at least). Why???

RE: Game DVD`s - £6.99 Negotiator, Devil`s Advocate, True Romance....

Well it looks like Game f***ed up again. I got my two DVD`s for £7 each but they`ve taken their entire offers page down now and the DVD`s are listed for twice as much elsewhere on the site. Thank you Game!

RE: Widescreen help! (2.35:1??)

Nevermind, it`s working fine now for some reason.

Widescreen help! (2.35:1??)

I`ve just received True Romance through the post but the image seems to only take up a fraction of my widescreen`s screen? The disk says it`s 2.35:1 and my TV has 4:3 16:9 and a couple of others. Which one should I be using? And is it normal for it to only be half the size of the screen?

Thanks!
