No Porn?

AKs are required to submit all porn to AKSeaWulfe for testing prior to ownership.  To be honest, nobody really wants it back after wulfie has tested it.

Get Catch-22 - it came out on DVD (in Canada at least) last month. I have a copy winging its way to me at the moment.

Other than that - nice collection.

Nice collection...  Personally I don't get a movie unless I know I'll watch it enough to make up for the money in buying the DVD.  Hence Kentucky Fried Movie isn't on my list!   ;)  

You don't like Stanley Kubrik?  2001?  A Clockwork Orange?  Full Metal Jacket? The Shining?

Fantasia 2000 is good if you like classical music (pines of rome, pomp and circumstance, firebird suite...)

Excalibur is good if you like King Arthur.

How can you not have Conan???   ;)

Do you like anime?  There are tons of anime titles on DVD now (as opposed to a few years ago where you couldn't find squat!)

Basically that's all I have that you don't have.  you've got a million I don't, but like I said, if I know I won't watch it more than 3 or 4 times, I won't buy it.  (caveat is the X-Files season collections...  I might watch them through totally just once, but that's 25 episodes for about $5 a pop, not a bad deal IMO.  They're on my wish list at Amazon.)

Glory is a fantastic movie!  

You'll get no argument from me about Shawshank.  Best of the 90's.

hmm, I liked Apollo 13 as well.  (not sure why I thought of that one all of a sudden...)

Am I the only one who thinks that this is the greatest horror movie ever made?  Even nineteen years and countless viewings later, it still gives me the creeps.

Nope... you can't be the only one... Man, when he had all three tied up for the blood test... too creepy.

Oh... should also mention "The Fog". It's not up to today's standards but I thought it was a great tribute to the older 50's horror movies. Of course, I'm not sure whether to give the film credit for including Adrienne Barbeau's breasts or to pan the film for letting her act.
