    @fire_and_ice, I was going to get the box set used for $53, but I figured it would be cheaper to get them separately, which doesn't necessarily bother me. And yes, 'Raw Deal' is great so far and I most certainly saw Davi's name in the credits. Looking forward to spotting him.

    Raw Deal is one of Schwarzeneggers weakest entries. If you want to see a truly fine release from the Austrian in the 1980s, I'd suggest Predator, or Commando, or even Red Heat. Try to get hold of a copy of Collateral Damage also, that Schwarzenegger appeared in around ten years ago, I saw it once, and was mighty impressed

    I quite like 'Collateral Damage.' I loved 'Raw Deal,' thought it was excellent, going to have to get it soon. I may impulse purchase 'Red Heat,' since it's only $5.

    True Lies is another one that's worth a look, but avoid at all costs, crap releases such as Last Action Hero, Kindergarten Cop and 'Jingle all the way'

    Schwarzenegger was involved in one or two releases that made Diamonds are Forever resemble Casablanca, so forewarned is forearmed

    I've never seen the final three you listed, but I really liked 'True Lies.' I recall watching 'Eraser,' as well, though I haven't seen it in a long, long time, so I don't remember anything from it.

    @fire_and_ice, that's it! I allowed my friend to tell me the ending of the film because he told me he knew I would be disappointed, and I agreed. I gave it five minutes one time and just moved on to other things.

    And I know how you feel. Anytime I'm out (or even online...thanks, Amazon) and I see deals I can't pass up, I have to get them.

    I am in a bluray box set phase at present, look great on display also. Bond50 being the center piece of course :-) Wanting to get hold of The lord of the rings trilogy next, still not seen it on bluray. When it first came out was £60 in HMV should be able to get it online much cheaper now. Usually when i see a bargain i can't help but buy it lol

    On sale this week on Amazon as a Gold Box deal, the LOTR Trilogy is only £15.00 on blu-ray, while the Extended Edition blu-ray box set is only £32.13.

    No problem, do let me know how it is! I settled with the separate steelbook versions on blu-ray, I couldn't pass those up at $10 a film.

    The 1979 European TV Series of Fantomas

    In 1979 a four-episode Fantômas television series was co-produced by Antenne 2 (France) and Hamster Films (Germany). Each episode was approximately 90 minutes long. Although several of the titles were changed, each episode was based on a Souvestre-Allain novel:


    1.L'Echafaud magique (The magic gallows). Produced by Claude Barma, directed by Claude Chabrol, adaptation and dialogue by Bernard Revon, music by Georges Delerue.
    Cast: Helmut Berger (Fantômas/Gurn), Jacques Dafilho (Juve), Pierre Malet (Fandor), Gayle Hunnicutt (Lady Beltham).
    Based on the first Fantômas novel, Fantômas.

    2.L'Etriente du diable. Directed by Juan-Luis Buñuel; other production credits as above.
    Based on the second Fantômas novel, Juve contre Fantômas.

    3.Le Mort qui tue (The murderous corpse). Directed by Juan-Luis Buñuel; other production credits as above.
    Based on the third Fantômas novel, Le Mort qui tue.

    4.Le Tramway fantôme (The phantom tramway). Directed by Claude Chabrol; other production credits as above.
    Based on the fifth Fantômas novel, Un roi prisonnier de Fantômas.

    I already have the Louis Feuillade 5 movies from 1913-1914, and I am really looking forward to this series of movies.

    Hilarious comedy classic with Tony Curtis as a Paris-based foreign correspondent working tirelessly to keep his 3 stewardess girlfriends from learning about each other's existence. Jerry Lewis plays his best buddy and gives a terrific performance in an atypical role for him. It's more like something Jack Lemmon would've portrayed. Suzanna Leigh(Grace from MajorDSmythe's and my favorite Bond knock off film "Deadlier Than The Male") plays the English stewardess.

    Well, the 'Oblivion' steelbook blu-ray that is only at Wal-Mart come August 6th was tempting, so I switched my reserve of the film elsewhere to 'Star Trek Into Darkness,' then went to Wal-Mart and paid off the steelbook version of 'Oblivion.' Getting shipped to my house the day of release.

    Jay and Silent Bob strike back collectors edition. Cracks me up this film. Full of movie references, great cameos.

    Thanks to some cheap movies, deals, and DVD trade-in coupons, I spent $30 and got 'The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel,' 'Evil Dead' (remake), 'Looper,' 'Predators,' 'Premium Rush,' and 'Rambo' (newer one) on blu-ray.

    @fire_and_ice, very nice to hear. It's such a good movie, and I found it at Target for only $4.75 on blu-ray. Such a steal, that one.

    That's very cheap bought my copy for £5 brand new thought that was cheap at the time. Its a short and to the point film and like the ensemble cast. In a short space of time characters are established quickly. Great back drop and the action is brilliant, good soundtrack too.

    @fire_and_ice, oh absolutely. It's just one of those films you can't pass up if you see it for such a price, and it's really a great way to spend time. Plus, Stallone just absolutely slaughters everyone in the movie, and that throat rip is one of my favorite kills of all time.

    I love that movie, and your rating of it is spot on IMO.

    Went back out to take advantage of a deal that ends tomorrow, in case they ran out of copies of it, but I got 'Welcome to the Punch' on blu-ray for only $10. Also picked up 'Bad Santa,' the remake of 'Halloween,' and 'Kill Bill: Volume 2' on blu-ray.

    First Blood is exceptional, Rambo to me is the true sequel. The middle two movies were just a product of there time. Thankyou.

    Oh the action and brutality is unforgiving, the nature of the enemy and their horrendous actions, not going to get into politics, though in the context of the movie does drag you in emotionally when Rambo lets loose.

    I suspect there's as much truth as fiction to that film.

    What do you mean "fiction"? I thought it was a Michael Moore documentary ;-)
