    I love how your accent intensified as soon as you started talking about Connery! Great bunch there! I have that Blade Runner DVD tin and the Casino Royale 3- disc DVD Deluxe box set with a hard outer slipcover, similar to that blu ray set. Those are a couple of the awesome DVD sets I would never trade up, even if I've got the movies on a further 2 formats!
    I haven't bought anything since Scream 3 4K earlier in October. I live in Israel so October 7th really screwed everything up for the whole country. Wasn't sure if I'd get the deliveries and this week is the first time I've started working again since, so...cost of living, definintely a factor. I did pre-order that tasty Arrow Conan Chronicles set though. Couldn't resist!

      Yeah u’ve got to hold onto the good ones. I have an old rigid box spider-man 2 dvd box set that i refuse to let go of also!
      Bizarrely i’ve not seen scream 3. I have seen all the other ones, just watched on 4k blu ray in the run up to Halloween there. I’ve not seen the Conan films in years, need to check out the set 😅It’s amazing ur watching from all the way over in Israel! I hope things get back to some kinda normalcy soon for everyone’s sake.

      There are a few collectors here I'm sure, I just haven't met them. I'd never give it up for streaming.
      Scream 3 is more fun that I remembered, but it's not up there with the best of them. I think it's more nostalgia for me because it was my first region 1 dvd from a dodgy warehouse retailer my college mates and I found near Watford...
      And that Conan set looks tasty, as all Arrow sets do.

    Lucky enough to have that *Blade Runner* DVD set from when it was released in early December 2007.
    Nice purchases; excellent *Casino Royale* set _but_ just keep that one for the extras and don't watch _that_ disc as it's cut to make it a 12; the uncut one (in various other releases) is a 15.
    To me *Wanted* is let down by the fact (I think) the comic/graphic novel shows some of the abilities are mystical whereas the film portrays them as physically possible when they just aren't - it's a personal annoyance that won't affect many watchers opinions but if they'd just said 'bending bullet trajectories' was partially 'mystical' in some way I'd have enjoyed it so much more as otherwise it's a great fun action movie. BTW there is a US 4K Amaray of it that came out in March 2023.
    I think you're right that *The Martian* 4K (extended or non-extended) never has a slip.
    Nice *Speed* 4K edition and slip - personally I got the steelbook but both look good.

      Did u ever upgrade ur Blade runner cuts to HD?
      I thought that version of CR in particular had the ‘15’ cut but maybe not then? I have the 4k of casino royale so that’s the one i’d watch which is the ‘15’ cut so i’m all good. It’s juat slightly longer takes of the stairwell fight sequence is my understanding. BBFC wanted it cut down a bit to make the bad guy’s struggle and eventual demise a bit less violent for a 12a.
      I’m not familiar with the wanted comic so i just take the movie at face value but i get why u have ur issue with it. What ur saying makes sense. They maybe just wanted the film adaptation to be slightly more grounded in the probable. Appeal to the masses more? I don’t know 🤷🏻‍♂️
      Anyway, i might actually watch Speed tonight. Looking for a quick (😉) favourite to kick start the years viewing! Cheers mate

      I think I see the *Casino Royale* in the video is a 12; I was going to get rid of mine when I got the uncut one until advised some of the special features don't appear in any other release. I thought the cuts were from the chair/torture sequence as the BBFC aren't keen on people enjoying torture. Yes; the 4K (and the Blu-ray in the 'Bond 50' set are uncut 15s (I think there's another Bond movie that's a 15 so Bond 50 was already going to be a 15 and no point cutting the Casino Royale for more buyers!).

      IIRC I watched *Ghost In the Shell* live action on consecutive nights with *Blade Runner: 2049* (my wife was away on a course so I had the TV to myself!) as they're both sort of post-apocalptic, near future ideas. If I'm honest I _loved_ *GitS* for the cool visuals and action but felt it lacked something binding it together (plus failed to explain a few things enough), which the anime did better. *BR: 2049* I was hooked from start to finish - I'd really worried they'd take *Blade Runner* and turn the sequeal into an action-fest rather than still being something with depth, as the trailers seemed to hint at. I needn't have worried! Apart from the last 15-20 minutes (which is a _tiny_ proportion of the _looooong_ runtime) I absolutely loved the whole thing... I just had problems with what I think were big plotholes at the end - I must rewatch in case I was tired and they were explained! It, also, of course has stunning visuals and I use that as my reference 'show off' 4K movie.
      One day I really must watch *Blade Runner: 2049* in 3D as I have the steelbook set which has the 4K, 3D BD and 2D BD... and the more recent steelbook with the unique special features bonus disc!

    Whole bunch of things here I've seen the coupier back in the day interesting little movie and kind of forgotten until the arrow release. I no wonder you're addicted to physical media you can get just about every film worth getting on Blu-ray these days for around 7 quid! Finally completed my PT Anderson collection the other day well overdue. Funny mention tins I bought one in a charity shop yesterday and it was just like four random action movies package together with a s*** cover! I've seen that a million times I've seen a million tins but I've never seen the two together. And gran turismo in a gold dvd box which is a bit weird. Speed on 4K is awesome because if you think of how startling is when things come towards the camera and how good it is when something tracks forward really fast on 4K? well that's the whole f****** movie isn't it down lift shafts and through highways.

      I think people are right that 4K will be the last home video format, which is kind of good because I don't think it would lend itself well to 35 mm films.
