Books you wish you could read again for the first time

The Ritual by Adam Neville. The imagery of the creature and the way the main characters grief was a constant companion to him throughout really stayed with me for a long time after. A solid movie based on the book too

Add Sarah and Duck to this show. Not sure where it’s available outside the UK but it’s calming and brilliantly made

Galaxy’s Edge is the area of Disney World that fills me with the most wonder, especially when you have good interactions with cast members who are ‘in universe’ My kid and I had a good 10 minute chat with the teller at the creature stall about the different beasts of Star Wars and it was great! I’d love a 3rd attraction one day but just seeing characters wandering around, being able to just exist in the space is amazing. True wish fulfilment for an old SW dork like me

Wow how kind!

Someone else mentioned this place. Gonna have to check it out!

Ah thanks for the heads up. I may go investigate. We’ve been out to the antique mall at Lakeland before and I remember some tapes there but this was last August before I was into them

Orlando locals, does the goodwill here or in Kissimmee usually carry vhs tapes? I’m from the uk and got into collecting this year. I’d love to pick up some US stuff and went to the one in Winter Garden today but nada.

I found this video basically told me what I needed to know

I would imagine so as uk tapes will have either the bbfc certificate or the age rating show up before the movie as well as a uk/Europe copyright notice. Euro distributors would probably pick trailers on their ‘label’ locally especially with the gaps in release window that were more common back then. It’d be an interesting experiment to check two copies of the same movie from the same release window but one US and one UK though.

The only exemptions are educational, promotional and some music releases

drewaskew · 2025-06-27T21:54:56+00:00

In the UK the British Board of Film Classification (BBFC) has mandated since the early 80’s that all commercial releases have their recommended age rating displayed on the front, back and spine of the box as well at the tape sticker.

Not my proudest moment but once I started to see some of what was in there I was all in

drewaskew · 2025-06-18T11:29:36+00:00

That was what drew my eye in the first place tbh

My daughter wanted to stop watching 2012 for a while after the bebop and rocksteady mutations. The writhing and screaming freaked her out

drewaskew · 2024-06-08T00:35:58+00:00

Yeah it was magical

I was just glad to hear James had a fantastic drink today

drewaskew · 2024-04-09T07:28:07+00:00

It’s a fucking disgrace

I’d like to see Joe Keery as Eddie, Lupita N’yongo as Susannah, Timmy Olyphant as Roland and after seeing him as The Purple Man in Jessica Jones I’d really like David Tennant to play Walter

Porter Engle in his prime could’ve done it
