My recent MP arrivals: 

- Rear Window Blufans

- 2046 NovaMedia

- Dawn of the Dead German edition

This is my first Blufans edition and good golly is it nice!! The Steelbook itself is obviously the basic WWA but the slip and case are just top notch. Vertigo and Sting arrive next. The 2046 continues the nice string of high quality Nova W.K.W. with so much gloss it’s hard to even get a photo without seeing myself in the reflection. 

Saw this went available so I put in another request. I’m a complete dingus and don’t know how to get to the UK site here in the states, plus I enjoy ordering through MP anyway

If any platinum is willing to give up their place I would gladly take it as gold. Been waiting for this one since I JUST want Back to the Future and not the entire trilogy. Fingers crossed otherwise!! Pumped!!!

I’m excited for this since in theory it means I can just one Matrix (I don’t want the entire trilogy) and just the Dark Knight (don’t want the entire trilogy). But am VERY excited for the Prestige! And 2001.

My submission for Stage 1. Here are 25 Full Slips. Several unopened because I just unboxed them. Points for America!

Nice haul... that pile of editions makes me nervous, though 😅

Hehe I’ve now set them down carefully. I also have to make a Full Slip post since I now more than qualify. 

Alright here we go. A time lapse of me opening the 16 boxes of movies + 2 boxes of books that accumulated during the four months that I was away riding my bicycle across the United States. These include: 

- Apocalypse Now Full Slip - Nova (MP)

- Fantasia - a grail (eBay)

- Happy Together Full Slip - Nova (MP)

- Fallen Angels Full Slip - Nova (MP)

- Spider-Man Full Slip - weet - (MP)

- Spider-Man 2 Full Slip - weet - (MP)

- Thor Ragnarok Full Slip - weet - (MP)

- Carlitos Way Full Slip - (zavvi)

- Grindhouse Full Slip - Nova - (MP)

- The Thing Full Slip - CX - (MP)

- Royal Tenenbaums - criterion

- Fast Times at Ridgemont Hugh - criterion

- The Spy Who Came in From the Cold - criterion 

- Scream (Zavvi)

- Forrest Gump (Zavvi)

- Top Gun full slip (Zavvi)

- How to Train Your Dragon (Zavvi)

- Conan the Barbarian (eBay) another grail!

everything came in great condition except for the Dragon which has a slight bend but not terrible. Thank you so much to the team at Media Pyschoes!!

Alright! So I’ve officially reached home after my cross country bicycle trip. I rode to DC and then took a train to Philly and New York and Chicago and nowwww Oregon. I came home to all these boxes on my bedroom chair…

So who wants an unboxing video?? 

Question: which GB hosts this? For shipping to the US. I just watched Dune today and adored it.

If I’m not able to secure my FS or any others I would like the WEA Steelbook. Currently in Raleigh with family on my bicycle trip so I haven’t been able to follow the hubaloo with this GB. Thanks!

Wait does the Forrest Gump GB affect this one? Because I joined that and received. and I think pointed to Predator.

You too 😉 and @Kingd1127 also 😲.

 

Also, I'm done updating. Asia, France and UK are the Final lists, I do not have any more copies to distribute, so I took off the members that can't get any edition. I'm sorry for everyone who could not get an edition.

 

On USA, I tried to give tier members an alternative they wanted and it worked for the most part, sadly FS was short, so some of you could not get anything.

 

At the moment I have left all the members from USA HUB that did not get anything on the list because I have one final chance for you! I have secured 10 x the Edition 5 (WEA Steelbook with no slip) for USA HUB. So any of the members that are empty handed at the moment can post here if they want 1 of those. Since USA is sleeping I will give you until later today to reply.

 

I'm not tagging you guys now, since it would add more work (and I got enough of that), normally you all should follow this topic for news anyway.

 

Should I not get enough interest I will create a new GB, oh by the way the edition is already Sold Out at Filmarena.

I just did a birthday double feature in Richmond, Kentucky. Venom and Saints of Newark. Hard for me to judge enjoyable movies right after because I love being in the theater so much. Both had bad parts but both had good or great parts as well. Here’s me on a ferry crossing the Kentucky river on my bike for good measure.

I decided a few nights ago to round out the Gene Hackman oeuvre. But I knew I’d have to wait until I was back home in November. Fast forward to this bike hostel at a Baptist church in Kentucky where they had a tv and a roku. Logged in and No Way Out popped up. It was a bit silly though still entertaining. Outrageous 80’s synth stress music, outrageous 80’s hair with Sean Young, and a twist just thrown in for fun.

Now I feel much better already.

 

To all the other psychos

Once I’m home from this trip in October or November we’ll be adding points for the states 👏🏼

I wonder what the boys at Weet are planning for their next marvel release 🤔

With the success of Shang-Chi I could see them going with that, if they get the go ahead for WEA.

@Christopher How did your bike trip go? Not sure if you posted about it yet or not, but it sounded like it would be an interesting rip.

 

Curious to hear about it if you get a chance!

Hey! Currently still on it. I’ve had much more service than I expected. I got over the Rockies a couple days ago and right now am in Ordway, CO heading east. It’s been incredible, but fun and full of hardship. If any of you like you can follow my insta for pics and occasional stories or my free substack where I’m writing about it when I find the time.

My buddy just sent me a post he made on Reddit in a Honda Fit sub ( he LOVES his Fit) and he ended up getting heavily mocked for some of the personal details on his car. He was quite bummed out by the attitude. Anyway it made me think of the Steelbook sub and MP. Ya’ll are just great. Love being part of a small positive encouraging and supportive community. That is all.

Oh! Well I’m in Pueblo now about to see Shang Chi. Come say hi!

Just saw Shang-Chi. The first big fight is probably the best fight in a Marvel movie. Just on choreography alone

I'm in a city called castle rock, about 30min south of downtown Denver via i25.

Looks like you are in my neck of the woods. CO, native.  Generally rv sites sell out months in advance.

Wait what part of Colorado? I’m heading east to Pueblo tomorrow. And then continuing on east after that

For rv sites they often have a little grassy area for tents and cyclists. Those never sell out BUT some rv sites are 10 bucks while others will be 40 or even more. 

So I got to Canon City, Colorado today. It was about a 75 mile ride. I couldn’t find a campsite or an Rv park that wasn’t expensive so I just booked a hotel instead. Turned the tv on and Predator was on. My ultimate comfort food. Perfect thing to watch when alone on the road.

Nice. The Manta Labs were beautiful. Got the one-click. I just looked and the full slip is on ebay but $250. A bit steep. 

It looks like UK and Germany are doing the censoring of the swastika but US looks like they are leaving alone. As far as pics are concerned, unless pics are wrong?

I think the German one does cause of rules in Germany? I mostly Wanted the Zavvi box set. We’ll see if the Manta FS drops though!

Ah, gotcha. Forgot about that one. Was thinking of premiums and could not think of one other than HDZeta which has not happened. 
I pre-ordered the set from Zavvi but will most likely cancel it. Since they are censored.

If all the premiums are as well, will just pass on them then. I have Manta Labs. 
I will have to get Film Arenas since I have a number, but can just sell it. 

Yeah tbh I’m mostly waiting for a Mantalabs Full Slip to pop up for less than 200. That’s one of my current grails, along with Conan and LA Confidential HDZeta

Ha just forward it to me instead! I’d pay
