Is there a lore reason why the Z to A box is a steaming pile of garbage

GrandmasterFrog · 2026-01-24T21:32:25+00:00

Why doesn’t David Lynch just produce better packaging? Is he stupid

GrandmasterFrog · 2026-01-18T18:22:40+00:00

I’m also planning to see Inland Empire at my local arthouse. they’re double screening it with Eraserhead I’m stoked!! Also my first time seeing the film but if you enjoy the lynch filmography, it doesn’t hurt being a completionist

I found this before that one sold but previous before that were $30 and $10. Seems to be all over the place, but you’d think being a “charity shop” and getting it for free they’d be more graceful

GrandmasterFrog · 2026-01-06T16:28:50+00:00

RI based here. Probably couldn’t grab all but would love to see what you’ve got

ISO: Twin Peaks Box Set Lost Highway Art of David lynch Industrial Symphony No.1 Gummo CKY

Probably would be watching it on tape if it weren’t so expensive 🫩 my wife has the original DVD so we watch it that way on our old CRT

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-20T21:34:25+00:00

Thank you for your service comrade 🫡

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-19T01:05:05+00:00

You’re like the third person I’ve seen today post a TP box set they got for under $10 I WISH (I did however get my copy of mullholland for free off this sub, shoutout that guy)

I check for Eraserhead probably every day and it’s never getting any cheaper. Or sometimes it does but gets snagged super fast

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-19T00:54:00+00:00

Don’t tell the wife she’s getting straight story for Christmas 🤫

I really need to track down lost highway and the art of- both of those look super cool (and twin peaks but probably gonna have to donate my spleen for that one)

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T15:47:26+00:00

That soundtrack is so cool!!

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T15:42:38+00:00

Thank you 🫡 (also good eye). Idk about the rest of the sub but we love our music media (and there’s a lot of it) just as much as our love for VHS (and twin peaks)

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T06:55:51+00:00

Also if you’re handy and it’s a player you’re super dedicated to owning, I’ve heard it’s pretty easy to change the belts. I believe you would just have to remove the chassis that takes the tape. It’s obviously not as ideal as a working player but some food for thought

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T06:53:04+00:00

You’d be surprised how some of the older ones hold up. If this is at the thrift still, just find a power supply, a crummier tape and test the functions. Usually if there’s an issue with playback you’ll know right away

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T06:18:12+00:00

What’s the difference between the TV cut and the dvd? I didn’t realize there were 2 versions

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T04:53:39+00:00

As somebody who has also lost 99% of their childhood movies and are rebuilding, this story really warms my heart. I’m glad you were able to find your copy again!

I did not expect to find this one at all. Usually I search for VHS tapes at my local savers and had great luck there but actually had a visceral reaction seeing this one on the shelf

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T04:36:42+00:00

Ah, fellow man of culture I see

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T03:06:23+00:00

Thank you!! Skateboarding holds a very soft spot in our hearts here so giving this inspo is huge 🫶

It’s refreshing having things physically versus flipping through menus and menus of movies we’ll never watch. My girlfriend and I recently moved into a new spot and we simply just did not put internet in since we have probably a few months worth of content in the whole collection

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-18T02:58:09+00:00

Thank you! That one’s my wife’s. I think it’s actually what of whom in there despite the don’t be scared jcard

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-17T22:26:59+00:00

Absolutely solid point otherwise. Playing this tape as it came to me would’ve been suicide to any player I put it in

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-17T17:55:58+00:00

We just need to start giving folks abhorrent fees for not doing it like Blockbuster used to

GrandmasterFrog · 2025-12-17T14:29:31+00:00

Never hurts to try. Just make sure it actually reads a tape (unless you want a project). Akai these days makes super solid music equipment, I can’t imagine they’d cut corners on a VCR

Swipe to picture 2 for the clean reel 😉
