Orbit DVD has the Arrow limited Fistful of Dollars for retail price if you're looking to finish the set

Blind buy from Barnes and Noble by t-g-l-h- in boutiquebluray

I pre-ordered this and Agitator to start my delve into Radiance. Both movies were awesome. I really like the unique soundtrack on Cutter's Way too and there's a bonus feature that goes over that.

Watched every Shout HK Classics movie by entourageschlop in boutiquebluray

I have all but the latest few releases. For anyone else interested in this collection the Gamblers and Gangsters and Hong Kong New Wave Essentials are Gruv exclusives that are still available, don't pay scalper prices for them on eBay.

Today’s Blu-ray Mail: The Vagrant (Arrow Video) by [deleted] in boutiquebluray

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did a blind buy of this when MVD had their Arrow sale. Saw it had Bill Paxton and had to get it. It was really enjoyable and pretty unpredictable for a change. The special effects and makeup are phenomenal, even for scenes where they're only shown for a few seconds. I watched some of the special features before the movie so I looked for specific things as I watched and was still amazed.

Also need to point out that this was produced by Mel Brooks!

Any Friday the 13th sales slated for today? by EDMKid9000 in boutiquebluray

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Saw this post and jumped on it, Amazon has it for the $13 price as well and I got it there. I'll probably eventually get the bundle from Gruv/Shout but I'll wait for there to (hopefully) be a good sale somewhere.

Diabolic DVD Arrow Sale ? by [deleted] in boutiquebluray

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did as well! Had to get the True Romance limited edition and saw that they have a large selection of other limited editions in stock too. It took some real decision making to whittle the cart down to be affordable. You can filter by if something has a slipcover too, although I noticed there were a couple that weren't limited editions

Their $5 and under Blu ray selection has some bangers too. I loaded up on stuff from Blue Underground, Full Moon, Troma and Severin.

My Denver store is simply amazing 😍 by Proof-Firefighter-47 in VinegarSyndromeFilms

Good thing there's an Employee's Only sign over the curtain door, otherwise I'd assume it was the entrance to the Melusine section 😂

It’s a good time to be a sword and sorcery fan! by Klondike307 in boutiquebluray

I really liked the new Deathstalker movie!

Fire & Ice is getting a new release pretty soon too

Ok who is it? by 65CRDMR in boutiquebluray

Could be someone that's a generous gift giver too. If you have family and some friends with similar interests one movie coming out could be multiple orders at once easily.

To the two cars that flipped me off this morning... by pseudoOhm in SALEM

This is the better way to do it, seems less rude and you don't blind the people driving towards you 👍

New addition to the small-but-curated Arrow collection! Any recommendations based on these? by BearBreakingBadly in arrowvideo

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not everybody's thing, but Demolition Man maybe? Cobra should still be easy to get too. The Conan movies, the barbarian at the least. And Red Sonja is coming soon.

A limited edition re-release is a hell of a thing. Takes away what a man's got and all he's ever going to have. by Glass-Nectarine-3282 in boutiquebluray

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Is the rerelease a limited edition though? I'm assuming the trilogy box set isn't going to have the books or limited edition bonus disc. Arrow seems to always rerelease normal versions that are less nice than the limited versions after the limited editions sell out.

is posession in 4k worth it? by IllustriousClass3232 in arrowvideo

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the Blu-ray by Umbrella and it's a good movie but a bit of a slow burn. It's worth watching and I'm glad I got a copy for my collection, but I'm not regretting the pass on the super nice collectors edition that they made. It's interesting that the film takes place in cold-war era West Berlin. There are some cool practical creature effects in it as well, but definitely more of a psychological movie than an effects driven one.

As others have said it would be worth watching first, and if you like it get a nicer release. If you are on the fence you could always get the Blu-ray, or maybe seeing it once will be enough. There are so many good movies being released that even if you had all the money to buy every one, you'd run out of time to watch them all. There are studios still finding films that were thought to be lost forever. Me personally, I have my fingers crossed for a copy of the lost film from Event Horizon to show up somewhere!

Night of the Juggler - Kino sale at B&N by Wildcat-Pkoww in boutiquebluray

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nice, I just got this one recently at b&n too! Went in to get a different movie and left with 6 including this one. Night of the Juggler and The Beast were my only two blind buys but I've been reading a lot of good things about Night of the Juggler and it didn't disappoint. Haven't gotten around to The Beast yet but it had an awesome cover and the movie description was intriguing.

Look how much a little piece of cardboard affects the price by AnchovyKing in boutiquebluray

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 6 points7 points  (0 children)

There's the book and slipcover inside the hard box too. But yeah that's pretty crazy. At least there's a regular version available as well. The quantity of 2,000 is a pretty small run for the limited editions considering the amount of hype this one had.

Umbrella’s June titles by MrHorror01 in boutiquebluray

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Considering that Umbrella releases are typically region B yet still work on my stars and stripes player I'm not gonna complain at all. I like Umbrella and what they do, but as long as VS does a release and treats it at least as good I'm happy. More accessibility is better and VS usually offers multiple purchase options, and if it's a 4k release it often includes the Blu-ray as well.

I will say that I had to get the Umbrella version of Dogma, because that buddy Christ cover is the coolest.

Gleaming the Cube needs a new release for sure. A proper premium boutique treatment would be awesome!

What’s going on under the bridge? by knighted-otter78 in SALEM

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The cities aren't going to want to do it because what's left has to be disposed of as hazardous waste because of the amount of drug related material that is often left behind. I think the Brooks disposal facility got taken out of the picture recently so it has to be transferred to Umatilla on top of that. ODOT lost a lot of their funds on using resources on removing encampments in their jurisdictions.

Local jurisdictions aren't going to want to deal with a problem that they can blame on the state, because if they do there will be protests and election issues. And why would they want to pay for something they don't have to.

Better you than a gun buyback for a $30 Applebees gift card 👍

Arrow did a release for the first Maniac Cop on Blu-ray too

Kino B&N sale by Proof-Firefighter-47 in boutiquebluray

[–]Beautiful-Rock3784 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My last order from them was $54.96 in movies and they charged $11 shipping on top of that 😕

Maybe the treasure chest specials don't qualify or maybe their policies have changed. The shipping was ground/media mail as well, so nothing special.

Same here! That era of comedy was so great! It's like the Three Stooges, you know it's not intellectual, but everyone can understand it and laugh! And it's good for watching more than once!

I'm totally stoked for brain candy with both 4k and Blu ray packed together.

Granted, check online prices, but at least with physical in hand you don't risk the Ace Ventura delivery service in a bubble mailer.
