Bee Gees Fan wrote:Well done on the Back to the Future and One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest purchases, Strat, they're both great films! I saw My Cousin Vinny in America a while back, and really liked it - Joe Pesci is Vinny, who I know best as horrible burglar Harry from Home Alone and Home Alone 2.

Joe Pesci is one of the best character actors to watch. He's classic in Goodfellas, and also does a fine turn in Casino, amongst others.

Bee Gees Fan wrote:I've heard that Ferris Bueller... and Walk the Line are supposed to be good, as is Third Rock From the Sun, and your other purchases sound interesting too. I hope you enjoy them!

Ferris Bueller is an all-time great. You must watch it.
"Anyone know what this is...? Class...? Anyone...? Anyone...? Anyone seen this before...?"

Quality film.

Recently bought House, M.D. S1; 30 Days S1; and Curb Your Enthusiasm S5 was dispatched yesterday.

Where did you order Curb - Season 5 from Wezzo? It's great that you've got it dispatched so early. I can't wait to see it.

Bought Grey's Anatomy - Season 1 last week. Love that show! This has probably been discussed before, but does anyone else find it weird that us Brits get the first 5 episodes of season 2 bundled in with the 9 from season 1 as shown in the US?

PlayUSA.com; I pre-ordered back in June. I can't wait to see it either.

I last bought the second and third seasons of '24' for £18 each on Play, and the tenth anniversary set of The Shawshank Redemption.

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, and Serenity (sci-fi, for the BF

)

GamerCard · by **Stratman** » Fri Jul 21, 2006 3:46 pm

Just had another dvd binge:

Resevoir Dogs SE
Blow
The Terminal SE
Wall Street
Fargo SE
Northern Exposure Season 1
The X-Files Season 3
The Office Season 1 (US)
House Season 1
Top Gun SE
Heat SE

I had planned on picking up the Special Edition of A Streetcar Named Desire but it wasn't there...

Btw, does anybody know what the extras are like on The Office Season 1 (US) R1 version? R4 is very bare; it's just deleted scenes.

Just thought I'd direct people to this article which states new Seinfeld dvds are on the way!

by **Paul B** » Tue Aug 01, 2006 1:50 am

Last bought the first series of Everybody Loves Raymond and the fifth season of ER. The latter's price of £23.99 was a rip-off considering that the set doesn't have any bonus features, but the episodes themselves more than make up for it.

by **roz11** » Tue Aug 01, 2006 11:17 am

I last bought Only Fools And Horses series 5.

Website · by **Sideshow Meg** » Tue Aug 01, 2006 6:59 pm

I won about £30 at Goodwood races today (Frankie Detorri won me the majority of that alone) so will be buying a new DVD pretty soon!

Cool, what did you think? Do you have any other Only Fools DVDs?

Yeah I also have:
Series 4
Series 6
The Jolly Boys Outing
Mother Nature's Son
Heroes and Villains

Series 5 is probably my favourite series that I own (although 6 was brilliant) I love all the episodes - particularly The Longest Night because I remember so clearly watching it when I was little with my mum and dad on a friday night.

by **Wezzo** » Wed Aug 02, 2006 11:15 am

Ah, cool. S6 is my favourite, personally, but I like all of S5 too, including (especially) The Longest Night. It's a bit like My Coffee With Niles - almost an entire episode set in one place; but still very, very funny.

by **roz11** » Wed Aug 02, 2006 9:28 pm

Do you have them all on dvd Wezzo? If so, which one do you think I should get next? I'm trying to stay clear of If They Could See Us Now for obvious reasons.

by **Wezzo** » Wed Aug 02, 2006 9:33 pm

Haha. Yes, that is one to stay away from for a while!

I've got them all, yes. As you have Heroes and Villians, Modern Men and Time On Your Hands would be good choices, to round out the trilogy. As for the series, S3 is a personal favourite - plus it has 8 episodes, the most of any of the series sets, so good value too.

by **roz11** » Wed Aug 02, 2006 9:35 pm

Okay cool I'll keep that in mind next time I wanna buy one

by **Wezzo** » Wed Aug 02, 2006 9:50 pm

Also worth a mention, a few pre-orders of mine:

The Simpsons S8 (R1); 15 Aug
One Foot In The Grave S5; 21 Aug
My Family S5; 21 Aug (not sure whether to bother though..)
Arrested Development S3 (R1); 29 Aug
The Detectives S2; 4 Sep
R.E.M. Best of the IRS Years - When The Light is Mine; 11 Sep
Scrubs S4; 18 Sep
My Name Is Earl; 25 Sep
24 S5; 6 Nov
Seinfeld S7; 20 Nov

Where am I going to find the money..

I really like The Longest Night as well - that's the episode that turned my parents into fans. My Mum watched it when it was aired, and she happened to mention that she'd liked it to my Dad, who'd never seen the show before, and they both started to watch quite regularly.

My DVD wish list:

South Park: Season 7
About 40 Doctor Who DVD's
