Hi buddy

I was not aware , thought there was only one WWA

Not a bad looking steel book...

But HDz Gold label  need to really come back to the DC party

I am fortunate to have received my set. Box set plus all the singles. All with my #. It all looks stunning. Loads of extra stuff too. 

When I get five minutes I’ll take some pics. Been a bit hectic since I got home. 

 

Unfortunately my box set has got a rip in the seal where it was rubbing around in the shipping box unprotected. From conversations with KS @ksosk, members will get their box sets in quality protection. Mine was not because they probably couldn’t fit everything in the shipping box, with the box set in it’s protector. 

As members are not getting a direct shipment, that problem will not occur for them. Everything will be nice and snug. 

 

Which brings me to the point....

Do I now open the box set as it’s slightly damaged? Is it an opportunity to see everything in it’s full glory?

I ordered the 1/4 slip so I could have a bare bones steelbook to put the 4K disc in sometime. Didn’t have any intention of opening the box set, but now I’m not so sure!

Decisions, decisions. 

 

Pics Dave

We're waiting 

Make sure you have both shoes on this time 😁

ANNOUNCEMENT

 

When I received the first batch of shipment, I realised that the one click boxset printing came out different from the one I wanted during

sample test prints.

What happened was that when the printing company reopened after the China lockdown, the chose the wrong setting and the spot uv print 

did not turn out as high as I wanted.

 

Because of that, I ordered for a reprint and held all shipments back. Therefore, only some stock were sent out including mine.

 

I spent many weeks sacrificing my nights after work to select each component for raised effect so I really couldn't accept what is produced at the moment.

Please kindly give us some time extension to get it ready and send out.

 

Thank you.

KS

 

 

@ksosk just wanted to say thank you on behalf of all of us, for the tireless Bd extra  effort you've had to put in after work for all of us 

Thanks @Veum

Sorry almost forgot lol

Technically it is still inside midnight for me UK time 🙂

@Gentleman and @extantsrevenge

So my 5 favourite sound tracks as follows (not in any particular order)

Blade Runner

Titanic 

Avatar

West Side Story

Karate Kid

Blade Runner is probably one of the best movie soundtracks of all time 

Haunting and unforgettable 

Titanic was brought for the hit Celine Deon song, but even the other instrumental compositions running throughout the film e.g Rose's song are beautiful 

Notice another James Horner album, he left us to soon. I once read an interview of his, and he said how Avatar had taken over his life, where he was working on the score 18 hours a day for 2 years. And boy , does it show

Sensational music, have a listen to Jake's first flight..

West Side Story, every track gets you tapping and thumping.  In fact, the soundtrack is so good, Spielberg used the same one 60 years on

Evergreen classic

Karate Kid, mostly to do with my love for the film,  some of the tracks really rock.. Bananarama's cruel summer, young hearts and you're the best !

My first purchased soundtrack was Jungle Book, loved the Disney soundtrack 

It was one of my bare necessities of life..😄

@extantsrevenge

Do the Americans even know what we are talking about here.. lol

Your 3D telly is still going strong then?

Mine has black vertical lines creeping across the screen from the left. Getting to the point where it's becoming annoying! Bloody shame to have to replace it. Will lose the ability to watch all my 3D discs. Of which I have many. 

I love watching films in 3D. I do wish these tossers at Samsung/Sony etc would get some 4K 3D TVs sorted. There must still be a huge amount of folks that want to watch stuff in 3D. 

Exact ..

Watching 3D content is great, provided the 3D is done well

Unfortunately 4K 3D TVs are not to be found ..

I have got away with it by having a 4K 3D projector (only Sony & JVC do it)

Agree, a real shame if one isn't able to watch 3D discs 

Maybe Avatar 2 will ignite interest 

James Cameron the sole flag bearer for this format 

Loving the Japanese 3D Marvel discs 

Thor, Love & Thunder

Priceless 3D disc

My submissions my fellow psychos

Red: Groundhog Day Mlife

Orange: Speed Black Barons

Yellow: Charade WCL

Green: Doctor Strange Blufans 

Pale Blue: Oblivion Everything Blu

Purple: Blade Runner OAB

Pink: Alita OAB

Did you ever get around to trying the puzzle ? Any idea on what size it is for a frame. I'm gonna do mine but can't find info on Competed size 

Not even close buddy 

Puzzle is way too difficult 

I tried splitting the puzzle pieces into A, B, C, D E, F, G , H etc ..

i.e the letters at the back of each puzzle

I was thinking this may help ... so I managed to split the up

But not had the time & energy to go further 

Awesome @pan

Which artist ..?

Where's Shrek 1 lol..

Hey all these are here ( just ) and I will be starting to process tomorrow.

 

Thanks 

Hi Carl hope you're well 

Any luck in shifting these

Cheers

@Pbsw23

Dr Strange & the Multiverse of Madness

Scarlet Witch lol.

Resubmission

Thanks @extantsrevenge

Replacement for Wizard of Oz & Coco

Ghostbusters Afterlife 

Not a patch on the first one obviously but better than the 2016 Mellisa McCarthy drivel

It was not a bad film, and the cameos at the end were very delightful 🙂

Train to Bussn / Peninsula

Love this zombie franchise 

Koreans showing how it should be done 

Really glad @ksosk arranged the GB for Peninsula premium

Also, in answer to the question of which film first & truly freaked me out...

It is all werewolves 

I was a huge Michael Jackson fan growing up in the 80s

Then my uncle showed my Thriller

I must have been 5 years old or something, I ran out of the room when he transformed 

That scene scared me shi*less

A few years after, I then watched American Werewolf in London

I must have been about 8 or 9

I remember recording it on VHS... I was really scared

I kept thinking the Werewolf will come out of the tape lol.

Gave me sleepless nights, I eventually ended up throwing the VHS tape away lol.

Talk about mental scars lol..

My submissions for challenge 7

I am hoping my selections qualify 

Wizard of Oz Black Barons

So first up, talking about witches, The wicked witch of the West is a stand out cinema history movie character 

Iconic film, iconic character , superbly played by Margaret Hamilton

I have many other editions including Hdz, Warner 75th anniversary etc and the 3D version 

Coco BF OC

For skeletons, how about this gem from Pixar

When it first came out, I was thinking how have they done a kids cartoon with skeletons so that it does not freak them out

But it was very cutely done ..

Only Pixar can do this 

Ghostbusters 

What a flick, what a title track

How ya gonna call...

Quintessentially 80s, Bill Murray at his best

I liked the recent one, Ghostbusters afterlife as well

28 days later

Probably one of the best zombie flicks

The fact that it was shot in my hometown of London was special 

Cillian Murphy walking around the empty streets of Westminster was quite creepy 

I was thinking how did they film that 🤔

Loved the sequel.  Wish they do another one from the franchise 

28 months later..anyone?

An American Werewolf in London 

Best Werewolf film bar none

I have pretty much every edition out there for this film

But I do miss the landscape orientation play.com steelbooks 

They were a fun concept

Looking forward to the new Zavvi hand silhouette edition,  but it's been beset with many delays.  Not sure I'll see it anytime soon

Great challenge @Pbsw23

Very apt and timely as well 😉

Just in time for the 6th challenge eh @extantsrevenge  😉

How my name came about? Pretty obvious lol given my profile pic

I loved Ready Player One as a movie, because I am a kid of the 80s

So for me the 80s nostalgia was very impactful

Loved the subtle and quaint references to all things 80s. What a decade

So I thought my profile name has to be a tribute and pay homage to the crazy and best decade 

I had my real name as my MP profile before changing to Parzival

But I was getting some unnecessary stick from the other site

I cannot believe how immature , pathetic and childish people the other site are

Unbelievable! Worst of all their Admins do not mediate (infact encourage it)

So glad I'm in the safe haven here of MP

Parasite

Amazing limited edition Korean edition

I have both FS A & B

I cannot believe such an iconic film has only one true premium edition 

When I was debating whether to go for it (or not), @ksosk convinced me

He said this wil be the only premium edition.  Boy, am I glad I went for it

A beautiful edition (both slips)

Aquaman

Hdzeta OC

I wish they continue their DC line, such a shame as I loved their DC one clicks

Ready player one

Hdzeta OC

I have the Manta OC as well, as well as the FAC and UMania, and Titans of Cult edition 

Zootopia

Blufans OC edition,  BF did a good job with the Disney and Pixar cartoons I must say

Finding Dory, Frozen 1 & 2, Up , Coco, Rio etc all rare and very good editions

I am legend

FAC edition 

Valkyrie

I absolutely love this film, especially the historical context 

It's a true story, superbly executed. Shooting took place at the Bendlerblock, where the real  characters were executed

Imagine that! 

Unfortunately,  no premium or steelbook exists for this

Until of course @BobaFett1974 made me a custom steelbook,  beautiful steelbook 

He makes the best steelbooks in my opinion,  better than premium retailers 

If ever a Zavvi or BB steelbook ever came out for this, I doubt it would be better than what Steffan has produced here

Incredible precision and quality 

Alita

Alita BF edition 

I have the much sought  FAC as well

A shame this kind of fizzled out. There was a lot of fan clamour for  sequel,   but nothing has come to fruition 

La la land

Manta FS

I have all the editions, Manta lenti & FS and the OC box

Korean FNC edition 

Zavvi & Best buy 

@ksosk

My man, you have truly outdone yourself 

@InfiniteDoors

What a challenge , love it
