Guys, this isn't a steelbook, digipack, or a movie...but I had to share this. I'm literally in awe. I finally got a Christopher Nolan autograph!!! I'm so freaking EXCITED! It took a little research and feedback from some authenticators online (plus the photo itself has also been authenticated professionally). This man is a huge idol of mine. From his writing, to his directing, to his perspective on film, Nolan has always really resonated with me as a film enthusiast. This is the grail beyond grails for me. To be honest, I don't think any premium could get me as excited as this! Here is Mr. Nolan's signature! Now I just need to purchase a frame to do it justice! 

*Spoilers*
 

I was a bit mixed over the finale of Boba Fett. I thought the show was pretty solid overall, but the final episode was a mixed bag. You get weird fight choreography (the punk kid who literally spins and shoots, everyone huddled together taking fire instead of spreading out). The fight seemingly ends only for Boba’s Godzilla like-pet to wreak havoc for several minutes? And…IF Cad Bane is dead, then it was a HUGE waste of the character (I’m hoping he’s still alive though). The final scene with Mando and Grogu was awesome though. Overall, I feel Boba was a bit overshadowed by Mando. I feel that it would have been better to not only stick with Boba, but also not jump back and forth between the past and the present (Tuscans and him taking over Jabba’s role). It was a solid series though with good moments. I’d give it like a 3.5/5. I wouldn’t mind seeing a second season. But I won’t lie…I’m excited more for Ashoka and Obi Wan!

I’m so impatient for these Dark Knight releases.

I completely agree. Some scenes really looked epic, and others far too polished like straight out of a soap opera. I hope this doesn't end up feeling like a show on The CW.

Exactly! What’s crazy is the budget is so huge. I feel like they could’ve found time to develop more realistic looking characters that actually look like they live and breathe in that world. I’m not opposed to them using good looking actors, but at least give them a rugged appearance. Viggo was a handsome dude, but looked very believable as a Ranger. So did Elijah as Frodo, etc. I’m just not buying it with these actors. The world looks great though. Like I said, I hope I’m wrong. 

I’m so torn on it. Some of it looks epic and grand.
 

Some of it looks “too perfect”. What I mean is that the characters look like models or cosplayers. There’s no ruggedness you’d expect to see from people living in Middle Earth. I’m hoping I’m totally wrong though. 

All of the Blade Runner posts are making me want to buy an OC when I totally freaking shouldn’t. 🥲

Big Lots deal 😝

Such a steal! 👍🏻 Big Lots has had some crazy deals sometimes. They’re more concerned with getting rid of inventory than pricing. 😂 Awesome find! 

I’ve lost track of what’s going on. But here’s Anya Taylor Joy because everyone loves her.

Zavvi and Best Buy econos. I can’t wait to rewatch Last Night in Soho.

Love Last Night in Soho. Anya Taylor is such a freaking gem! Everyone did great with that film though.

It feels like forever since my last pickup but a doozy of one arrived today fresh from the EoY sale! Thanks @Masterblaster for not only this beauty but also for how carefully it was packed. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Looks so dope! 

Alcohol is allowed on the island correct? lol

What exactly is this thread? lolll I just started getting notifications for it and have no clue what's going on. I'm assuming its Veum's island party getaway.

You have to be always ready for this even when it's hard 😂 

Lol it's only difficult because my wife will get upset. 😝

No that will be a surprise 😁

It definitely will be. I just hope it doesn't surprise me when I'm buying a whole bunch of other stuff. 😅

Has there been any word on when exactly this is being released? It was in pre-production I believe?

Amazing haul! Question for the group. Do you miss finding the new title in the store, or are you happier with getting purchases in the mail? I know in my area, we only have 3 possible areas for releases and they are all bad, lol, so I have to go online to find things.

I miss finding copies in stores. I have a lot of options where I live, but they have slowly dwindled the last two years since COVID.

In the middle of moving and having a lot of deliveries going to an in-laws residence. Went & collected today.  👀

Today's arrival 

Awesome! Shawshank is just a classic. Afterlife was surprisingly really, really good. I loved it.

“I think you’re beautiful.” Added A Star is Born Manta Lab One-Click Boxset to my collection today. I originally planned to only keep one slip, and I’m now keeping the whole thing without hesitation. Pictures don’t do this release justice, and the lenti’s look a lot better in-hand than I had previously seen in pictures. 
 

That is such a gorgeous set! Wow! Beautiful set for a beautiful film. Loved that movie, but it's hard to watch. 😅

Arrived a little less than a month ago but just wanted to say thank you to Media Psychos for my first CM edition.

That looks freaking phenomenal! Congrats!

We can only hope! Personally I thought Den of Thieves was pretty cool and fits in nicely with The Town in my book, been a minute since I watched either now - time for a rewatch soon.
Yeah, the back is pretty rad - think I might add this to my "want-a-steel" list for a custom consideration in the far flung future

The Town is such an incredible movie. Underrated in my opinion, even when it’s held in high regard. The writing, acting and directing is so well done! 

I mean…I Feliz Navidad every Christmas while I Yippe Ki-Yay…
