    Absolutely, Children of Men one of the best sci movies in recent years. The hand held camera work is excellent shifting from first person to third person perspective, during one take action scenes really drags the viewer into the movie. The film has some genuinely profound moments.

    Whywas my comment delleted? This is ridiclous. I was tryig to say the bond series can learn new tricks from CHILDREN OF MEN.. Spicing up the movies with camera tricks.

    Give me a break mods.
  • I technically purchased Skyfall on Blu-ray at my local store, only I have to wait four more days until it is released :(( Gives me comfort knowing I own it though ;) Cannot wait!!

    Also, was thinking about buying the 'Constant Gardner', with Ralph Fiennes. Watched the trailer and it looks fantastic.

    Quantum of Solace, of all things

    Saw it today at a reduced price, and decided straight away to purchase it. Very good price. It was almost next to nothing. That's only Thunderball missing from my James Bond collection now

    Just paid for the Hobbit, did not have chance to watch it at the cinema. Avoided pretty much anything to do with the movie, looking forward to picking up my bluray on the 8th of April.

    Magnolia € 4,00. The online price of this store asking € 20,95. The extra's are taken over from disc 2 of the 2 disc SE dvd, but with the BD release documentry only have option for English or Spanish subtitels and trailers/tv spot only Spanish. I think it is the already long screentime (188 minutes) of the movie with 7 subtitel options (Danish, Dutch, English, Finnish, Norwegian, Spanish, Swedish) made it impossible for Newline to subtitle another 72 minutes for the long making off with the same subtitels. The Dutch studio A Film Entertaintment made them easy for them selfs and give us the Scandinavia version with a couple of covermistakes on the back cover.

    Gladiator Limited 2 Disc Blu-Ray Digibook Edtion € 9,00!

    Having read a lot of praise levelled at both the film itself, and star Elizabeth Olsen, curiosity has gotten the better of me.

    I picked up 'Jackie Brown' the other day on blu-ray after loving it (and having only just seen it for the first time) on Netflix Play Now. Also picked up 'Zero Dark Thirty' tonight on blu-ray. Almost got a special edition 'book' version of 'Seven' - thought it was on sale for $9.99, but I found it was $35 (somehow) when I arrived at the counter. Looking to pick up 'Django Unchained' and 'Gangster Squad' on blu-ray in the coming weeks.

    Today I took a trip with the parents to get some air, and found some great films to my surprise!

    I have been looking for Casablanca on Blu-ray for so long (one of my dear favorites), and I finally found it today! It was in a double pack with The African Queen, another Bogart classic that I actually have yet to see. Casablanca is worth hundreds of dollars alone, so when I saw that it only cost about $14 dollars for the pack of two films I knew it was a steal!

    I also spotted a rack of DVDs that came in a piece of cardboard and plastic (no dvd case) for only 96 cents each! I saw the John Wayne-starring film McLintock! and to my joy Alfred Hitchcock's The 39 Steps (one I have been wanting to see for a long time) and purchased them both with a cinephile's grin.

    4 classic films all in one day, and for less than twenty dollars! And at Walmart no less!

    @chrisisall, nice to know I influenced someone! My only upset with all of this is that it took me THIS long to finally get around to watching it. I think it's the only Tarantino film I had yet to see, but with everyone talking about his film when a new one comes out (such as 'Django Unchained' being compared to this in terms of what his best film was), I had to see it before it was spoiled for me. Excellent film.

    I guess I need to see Jackie Brown, then.

    @chrisisall, yes, she does. I've been a fan of hers since I was a young boy watching her in (can't recall the title) a Steven Seagal film. 'Above the Law' maybe?

    @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7, yes, you do. It's wonderful.

    The Newest movies I bought were 2001: A Space Odyssey and Inception, both on DVD. I saw 2001 on Friday and, even though it was supposedly a new copy and came sealed, I couldn't finish Inception as it got stuck 20 minutes in.

    That happened once to me & a gentle cleaning with dish soap fixed it, even though I saw nothing on its surface. :-O

    My brand new copy of SF stopped when Silva handed Bond the shot and continued after he was handing Bond the gun. Really irked me, still not sure if that was ever fixed.

    Fearless with Jet Li. From what I remember it was a good martial arts film, so I decided to pick it up.

    I bought quite a few while in Florida.

    Oh how I loved Fearless with Jet Li! So moving and well acted.

    I just bought Inception for about $6. Very happy indeed; love that movie, I can watch it often.

    Just pre-ordered 'Django Unchained' steelbook on blu-ray from Target. I can't wait to get it in the mail.

    Had a nice surprise today because I found a 2 disc set of Sweeney! and Sweeney 2 for only a fiver. Always enjoyed the series and I haven't seen the film spin offs before, should be good.

    I also bought The Sweeney 2012 reboot while I was there because although it was nothing like the original series/films, I do like Ray Winstone and it was a decent action flick in it's own right, so I thought it deserved another watch.

    Zero Dark Thirty & Brazil (Criterion) Blu ray's

    I've seen neither film before but took a punt as they were on offer on Amazon.com

    @Shardlake, ZDT seemed to be a love or hate film: while I enjoyed the drama, watching the events unfold that led up to the death of bin Laden (SPOILER ALERT! Apologies, everyone.), and the intense finale, my buddy said he hated it and it lacked what made 'Argo' an excellent drama. Let us know your thoughts.

    The mail man was kind enough today to deliver the following gem:

    I'd seen the film on VHS multiple times in the past but now I desired to add it to my DVD collection. One of Fulci's best IMO.
