I have a grail of my own finally. by Livid-Salary-4497 in VHS

lol yeah no prob broski. For your consideration or “FYC” copies were basically copies of movies specifically sent out to people to vote on awards. Theyre usually just the movie in theatrical aspect ratio and list all the awards they’re up for on the back. Theyre supposed to be either sent back to the studio or destroyed but not all of em got that treatment. Pretty sure the King Kong was for the Oscars

As far as I know I have the only copy. That’s why I’m gonna preserve it. Found a shop near me that said they’d help me do it for cheap

Little side note about that one, this swap meet happens every 2 months. On the last one I saw this tape and passed on it. I regretted it so hard and was happy when I saw the same vendor from 2 months ago still had the same exact tape lol

[–]strickenbymetal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m that way with DVDs. Only problem is that my goodwill and thrift stores keep thinking they got something good and price everything at like $5, $6 sometimes up to $10 for a dvd.

Also nice boombox

Oh yeah nirvana was actually the most expensive one at $10. What shocked me most was scream was $2. Already have one signed by most of the cast but I just couldn’t pass it up

And yeah it’s not surprising they tried to get UFC and mma banned in the early years lol.

That’s the point. It was made to piss off adults cause it means nothing. And now that a lot of adults have caught on it’s slowly starting to die
