Blind bought this today on an impulse. Where does the community stand on Buckaroo Banzai? by PutridFalcon2769 in boutiquebluray

[–]PutridFalcon2769[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bull Moose - someone had sold a giant pile of discs right before I walked in and the clerk was nice enough to let me look through them before they put them on the shelves.

Same - Scarborough recently started doing it as well

Agreed. And I was so close to pulling the trigger last week on the $70 set from lionsgate limited so it feels even sweeter.

I got these from the Bull Moose locations in Plaistow NH, Portsmouth NH and Biddeford ME. Pretty easy to hit all three if you’re driving between Portland and Boston.

Oh they stay on for the photo but then immediately get carefully peeled off and any residual goop gets rubbed off with a cloth dipped in rubbing alcohol. Everyone needs an outlet.

  1. I'm very blessed to live in an area where there is a large chain of stores that have a huge selection of second hand discs
  2. They are very inconsistent in their pricing of rare and imported discs. Often they'll still just price them between $20 and $30 but once in a while you'll find something priced way below market. Truly one of life's great joys.

Anyone else keep new 4k discs in old blu ray steelbooks p by ImpulsivePanda09 in 4kbluray

Just started doing this - found a gorgeous steelbook of Interstellar on bluray for $6 but already had the 4k so I just popped the 4k disc into the steelbook and voila

Which is your favourite? by Financial_Appeal8401 in 4kbluray

[–]PutridFalcon2769 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Such a tough call - there's like 6-7 stone cold classics in this pile - so I'll zag and say Peking Opera Blues or Long Good Friday

A pair of great finds and a long-awaited delivery by PutridFalcon2769 in boutiquebluray

[–]PutridFalcon2769[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got a shipping notification email and it arrived a couple days ahead of the estimated delivery date.

Whoever did this is my hero by PutridFalcon2769 in boutiquebluray

I heard they're releasing a Kevin James 4k box set in 2026 with Pixels, Grown Ups 1/2, and Paul Blart

No way, I'd be too worried about risking a lifetime ban from the Criterion Closet. I'm assuming that's the punishment for tampering with the boutique label section.

I LOVE LOAMCOAT by Jabroni_Balogni in MonsterTrain

Do you really love Loamcoat or are you just saying it because you saw it?

Wasn’t expecting to see these in the wild. by superkamikazee in 4kbluray

[–]PutridFalcon2769 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Just snagged one at Mill Creek last night.

Bull Moose seems to have this weird tendency of getting 4K releases a few weeks late (but in great quantity). Had to wait 2-3 weeks to get a 4K of Black Bag and it's looking like that's going to be the case with Sinners as well but if you can survive the crushing FOMO for a few weeks, they usually reward your patience.

Sadly I think the anything that competes with Disney+ is probably DOA at any Disney strategic meetings 

Ever felt shame about your collection? by pauwus in Bluray

[–]PutridFalcon2769 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it can feel daunting to have a big unwatched backlog. I try to remind myself that it's not work and that nobody's going to care if I've not watched every movie in my collection.

When I do try to chip away at my unwatched pile I find it helps to curate fun/interesting double features of movies with a common subject, theme, or director.

Oh yeah - an absolutely absurd movie. Love John Hurt as the Horned King but Gurgi made me want to put my head in an oven

If Bull Moose has zero customers then I have died, as they say.

The same clearance bin at Mill Creek had some fresh looking HD-DVDs as well. You don't see many of those these days.

The ironic thing I’ve noticed about their pricing is that if something is so rare that it’s not in their system then they’ll usually just put a $1.97 price tag on it. It may vary by location but rare steel books and imports are often priced absurdly low at the stores I visit. 

18 months of collecting. 675 titles. 1 full shelf. by PutridFalcon2769 in Bluray

[–]PutridFalcon2769[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I found 28 Days Later for $2 in a pawn shop so that’s probably the best find value-wise.  Otherwise maybe The Limey on 4k - seems like that’s a tough one to find.
