I’m probably gonna go for the boxset that comes with it. Seen that yet?
Damn I need to get an all region dvd player then go on a spree. Wish I new movies were so friggin cheap in europe earlier. :’( Btw Hung IMO you should get Shogun’s Shadow since you have Shogun Samurai. Best swordfights period, mixed with cheesy acting. I need to import Battle Royale one of these years. Probably have watched it 4 times on my computer in low quality. I’ve got to get Dolls. Sounds great. And of course I still need the 36 chambers. Why is the supposed best kung fu film so fn hard to find?
Speilberg:
Jaws SE
Close Encounters of the Third Kind
War of the Worlds

It’s one of those 101 dvd I didn’t list. But it’s still pretty high on my list.

This is probably the first and the last time ever Finland has a better dvd release than most other countries. 2 disc special edition featuring both versions of the film. Comes in a beautiful digipac. No english subs, though.

The most beautiful movie ever made. Though I’m sure some people will find it very boring.

It’s not hard to find these movies. It’s just hard to find good versions. I’m currently selling almost all of my Celestial Shaw Bros. dvds and getting french, german and australian releases instead (because they feature original mono sound, unlike Celestial). I hate it when I have to buy the same movies several times…

now that’s what I call customer distraction 
actually JSA is an awesome film. but you’re right, i am not sure if I would put it into my collection. it’s more like a 1-time or 2-time watching thing
I just amazingly found Brotherhood Of War at my local video store, so ill see if this film still deserves to be on my must buy list.

You can speak one one of those languages?
The problem is that getting Finnish dvds out of the country isn’t exactly easy. Other Nordic countries have the same release, but only the finnish version comes with the great digipac. The swedish version has awful cover art. And I’m not sure how the quality compares to other releases. I haven’t watched the dvd for a long time. Hmmm…I’ll probably watch the film again today. I’ll post some comments about the quality later.
I speak fluent Norwegian and can at least understand Swedish and Danish.
Give me some comments! Please!!
That was sure! Getting wonderful releases is always difficult! gna gna gna
