movies are cool. here is a place to talk about how cool they are. or maybe how much they suck, sometimes. like that fucking piece of shit 'mac and me'. worst fucking movie ever, a two-hour ad for fucking coca-cola.
Some new $3 movies at Big Lots. Two in particular, vyn will be interested in if he doesn't already have 'em:
Hellboy: Director's Cut (3 discs!)
The Adventures of ABaron Munchausen
Philadelphia (Special Edition)
A River Runs Through It (Special Edition--looks just like the earlier version with a "Making Of" book, though)
Who's The Boss: The Complete First Season (Holy crap! Too bad this show sucked ass, though.)
Evening Harder: An Evening with Kevin Smith 2
Guys and Dolls (this was a thick case, so I assume it was a special edition, if anyone here is interested--I wouldn't mind seeing it, but didn't want to buy it)
I picked up Hellboy, Baron Munchausen, and Philadelphia (that movie has some of the best acting in film history, from Hanks, Washington, and Banderas). I started to get Evening Harder, but passed on it.
Totally unrelated, they had a $6 gift set of exotic hot sauces from Louisiana Brand, which I know is a large manufacturer of good hot sauces, so these shouldn't be the "colored water with a little bit of pepper" that so many of these gift sets are.

I was close on Evening 2, but it didn't seem like something I'd watch multiple times, and I'm really trying to cut back on DVDs. There were a lot of other recent movies that kinda surprised me, but I can't remember them all. I wouldn't have even gone there if someone hadn't said they found Hellboy there. I never got the director's cut (obviously).

A bit off topic here, but what I'd really love to do is get audio versions of these (I have no freakin' clue how to go about doing that). And I'd love 'em done properly (broken up into tracks so you can skip to the next question/story and that way they'd also be broken up enough to fit on cds. Even if I knew how to do it, it sounds a really time consuming process.
I think they'd be great to listen to on a road trip or to toss on an MP3 player.

you'd have to do quite a bit of monkeying- IF it wasn't encrypted, you'd just need a REAL strong PC, convert the shit to some filetype you can work on (like wmv) then unlink and remove the video, then chop it up and export each clip as a separate file...
Right- not tooo complicated but it would take a while
I didn't see Hellboy or Kevin Smith, but I picked up Baron Munchausen, Hudson Hawk, and a Three Stooges DVD. They had a shitload of Dave Chapelle's Block Party and Barber Shop 2 dvds.
I saw In Cold Blood some time ago and grabbed it, but it was just the one movie.
I also recall that Leon: The Professional (the uncut original version) was another DVD they had, but it slipped my mind since I already had it and didn't pick it up.

Scored good deals on Superbad, Juno, and Surf's Up via Black Friday deals. I'm wanting all the $15 Seinfeld DVDs, but I'm not made of money.
Heads up also: I found The Jacket for $3 at Big Lots tonight. That movie is definitely worth getting for that price. Tremendously underrated gem. I also saw (at one of the three I went to, in fruitless search of a $5 Tickle Me Ernie) what I think was all of the Bond flicks (minus the two with the current fugly-ass motherfucker who is supposed to be able to play the same suave, debonair badass as guys like Brosnan and Connery--maybe if he gets his fucking head replaced) for $4 each.
