I just went out the other day and purchased the Daft Punk DVD of Interstellar etc... (can't remember the full name)  Its the animated version of Discovery.  Quite amazing.

But the real best purchase was the first (and only, sadly) Season of Undergrads.  That was just an amazing show.

Nice.  I've been hoping they would release David the Gnome.

I mean, come on- in the past 2 months we have gotten both Fraggle Rock AND the first season if the Muppets.  The time is right!

Have you watched the "Darkomentary" extra, with the "#1 Donnie Darko fan"?

There is nothing in all the world more sad and disturbing than that.

Just got Life aquatic used for $9 also, WalMart movie bin raid of Total Recall and Johnny Dangerously. Plus an aqusition of Buckaroo Banzai's adventures in the 8th dimension, or somethng like that... it's a long title and the dvd case is across the room... damn I'm pathetic. Also, I'm surprised at how many of these movies you guys speak of I have. It's like this entire forum wreaks of good taste (cause naturally the only people with good taste are people who agree with me).

I was just looking into that tonight when I saw that Pete and Pete Season 2 came out. Turns out David the Gnome was originally a Spanish series. And...I don't think anything's in the works for a DVD. Which is disappointing.

I bought Collateral a while back and watched that the other weekend. I enjoyed it. It aint movie magic but worth a rental.

I bought Ghost Dog close to a year ago, and finally watched it a few weeks ago.

Man, waht an awesome movie.

And Heat was Mann's magnum opus.  Collateral was a slick-as-snot diversion to keep us occupied until...well, the Miami Vice movie, I suppose.

Ross Noble : Sonic Waffle
Ong-bak
BASEketball


Ross Noble is an absolute ledge, top quality dvd.
Ong bak had some stunning moments in it, but was kinda shit as a film.
BASEketball was a pretty poor effort considering it's by the people who make the genius that is South Park.

Close.  That's the right number of fives, but you got the first word wrong.  It's Interstella

Akira

That will be my next purchase.  I already have the VHS, but don't have a VCR so I need to get it on DVD.  I almost got it yesterday as a matter of fact, but figured I may get a gift card for Christmas that I can use.

I need to get Princess Mononoke, Akira, and Ghost In The Shell. I saw a Special Edition of GitS the other day, but couldn't afford it.

A couple of days ago I bought Gladiator (finally!) and GoodFellas (which I hadn't seen, but can now highly recommend). The purchase was made a lot nicer by flirting awkwardly with a rather pretty, and slightly flustered salesgirl.

 Today I bought Dosage Vol. 3, a climbing DVD.

nick cage rocks! i'm very excited to see him as ghost rider.

i bought fantastic four and batman begins recently. notice a theme?
spirited away is very high on my list of movies i want to buy, but i can never seem to find an available copy at best buy or circuit city. i guess i haven't looked hard enough though, seeing as i left my search to just those two.

I kinda went nuts at Rasputin tonight.  DVDs less than $10 = impulse buys.

1. Narc - Now I get why Joe Carnahan's name is bandied about with such abandon these days.  Daaaaamn.

2. Dark City - Sure, it toes the line of bad comic book movie, but the ambience is so awesome one can ignore non-performances by many of the principals.

3. Amores Perros - Depressing as fuck.  Also, the finest portrayal of urban decay since...um...Narc, actually.

Giftwise

THX 1138
Casablanca
Mon Oncle
Edward Scissorhands

Just today bought on DVD:

Beetlejuice: Not one of Burtons best, but still great, even with the dated special effects. I love Lydia. The suicide note composition scene is great black comedy.
Clockwise: Seriously, John Cleese can do no wrong. Not as good as Strange Creatures, but still a favourite.
Frankenstein/The Bride of Frankenstein Boxed Set: Frankenstein is one of the classics, and I haven't seen the Bride yet, so I look forward to that once my folks are a-bed.

I also got Dr. Strangelove for Christmas. That was a really, really, really gaping cultural gap, and I am damn glad it's filled. "Have you ever seen a commie drink a glass of water?"
