Rambo 4 was at Lovefilm

but the goodtimes are over now I think.

It was 10% off, then a code to get another 5% off, then 5% Quidco on top so 20% off in total

worled out £11.97 best price on the net as far as I know (unless someone can get it cheaper).

i'm still waiting to hear how romero gets amazon.com to ship his pre-orders weeks before release date

romerojpg · Post by **romerojpg** » 26 May 2008, 21:39

You pre order and wait, they must have it in for you

some people get amazon packages in a few days, some get them in many weeks, its where you are on the ladder.

Could you post the discount code please?

I cannot even see Rambo being listed. The Blu-ray listing actually points to the box set but they've slapped the Rambo 4 cover on it.

Rambo (BRD - Studio Canal)

Rambo 3 (BRD - Studio Canal)
Terminator 2 : le Jugement Dernier (BRD - Studio Canal)
Total Recall (BRD - Studio Canal)
Basic Instinct (BRD - Studio Canal)

Lot of good titles there... though I'd wait for Sony's US release of Cliffhanger.

The US Basic Instinct is coded RA so this might be a good RB alternative.

Romero has the funny knack of mentioning vouchers "after" the bargain is over

not exactly an earth-shattering problem is it ,being posted twice

Hey Romero,
Avoid the plot synopsis section of the Starship Troopers 3 of the DVD news item over at DVDactive, it gives away the film's entire plot.

It's obviously cut and paste verbatim from the original PR material. Nice work, SPHE advertising department.

To be fair, the majority likely wouldn't be watching DTV films such as this for the story.

EvaUnit02 · Post by **EvaUnit02** » 27 May 2008, 14:49

Top Gun BD re-announced (took awhile).

though the previous HD DVD remained surprisingly devoid of extras and lacked high-res audio.

What? My HD-DVD has a TrueHD track, pretty much my main reason for purchasing it (aside from the bargain bin price).

EvaUnit02 · Post by **EvaUnit02** » 27 May 2008, 16:43

Nixon DC coming.

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 27 May 2008, 17:02

Pity there's no Theatrical Cut option - I believe the extra DC footage is of lesser quality and at over 3hrs it was already long enough.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 27 May 2008, 18:22

At least we're getting it in decent form at last. I considered picking up that Dutch DVD awhile ago. It's the only anamorphic version, pity it has forced subs.

Markgway · Post by **Markgway** » 27 May 2008, 23:26

The Dutch DVD was the TC.

bradavon · Post by **bradavon** » 28 May 2008, 01:00

I just meant it was anamorphic so immediately better than the other DVDs, hence the only one I would've picked up.

I've not seen it before but like you say I doubt the extra footage is really needed.

So Nightmare is good then? I love Burton's work but have never felt the need to see it.

EvaUnit02 · Post by **EvaUnit02** » 01 Jun 2008, 07:12

Nightmare is wonderful.

Just read some reviews, FFS.
