Title: So DeepDiscount is having a sale next month - what're you gonna buy?
Post by: Ichirou on May 14, 2007, 01:14:48 AM
Thanks to distantmantra, I know that DeepDiscount is having a 20% off sale in June...thought I'd make a list of the stuff I intend to buy, and you guys could all make lists too, and then we could see what everybody plans to buy and maybe we can get inspired to pick up some stuff we normally wouldn't!

My list:

That's a bunch of shit I've never heard of ever.

I dunno. What's the sale do?

20% off everything.  That's what the sale does.  Their prices are already cheaper than pretty much every other online store and they have free shipping, sooooo...  :D

And Himuro and FoC, just because you haven't heard of something doesn't mean it's not good.  :P

I didn't say they weren't good, I just commented on how I've never heard of them.

I love discount dvd so I needed clarification. Thank you.

I bought bebop and gits from ddd and they were almost always used and then resealed or in bad shape so I'm not buying form there again.

I've bought a bunch of stuff from DDD and it's always been brand-new...you can assure that the DVDs arrive in good shape by paying extra for shipping instead of using the cheap free shipping they offer.  That's what I do.

Most of those are from the seventies or earlier, that's probably why.

I've love a SAC 2nd Gig boxset but it seems that doesn't exist yet.

Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas Criterion

(http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/51D7T8KRC8L._SS500_.jpg)

Gundam 0080: War in the Pocket

Gundam 08th MS Team

Fawlty Towers

(http://g-ec2.images-amazon.com/images/I/51XQG5RFGCL._SS500_.jpg)

I don't really know what else to get. I've been trying to become more versed in film but I can't think of any I'd want to buy atm except The Departed and a few others from 2006.

Demi - Man, not even the nostalgia of my youth can blunt how bad both those shows were.

Do the Super Mario DVDs include the Captain Lou Albano segments with him dressed up as Mario?

Himuro - those are two of the best UC Gundam shows ever, good choices.  What kind of film stuff are you interested in learning more about?  I might be able to steer you towards some good movies.

Post by: Himu on May 14, 2007, 03:03:10 AM
I don't know what film I'm interested in learning about. I just want to get more knowledgeable in general. I haven't even seen half of that top 100 American films list from that site I forgot.

Those are my two favorite gundam series. Haven't seen Z yet.

Post by: Ichirou on May 14, 2007, 03:04:30 AM
UC stuff is all solid except for ZZ, which apparently sucks anus (I haven't seen all of it).

Lemme see - do you mind watching silent movies?  Any objections to black and white stuff?  Do you want to know about gangster films, film noirs, westerns...? What are your areas of interest?
Title: Re: So DeepDiscount is having a sale next month - what're you gonna buy?
Post by: Himu on May 14, 2007, 03:05:56 AM
I love gangster movies, it's the reason I'm obsessed with GTA. Martial arts movies are great too. Drama is my favorite genre. I like comedy a lot.

Um...black and white is no big deal but silents...I dunno about that.

Himuro has no money to waste on DVDs, he has a 360 and HDTV to get.

And applesauce.

I mean real gangster movies, not The Godfather or the '80s version of Scarface.  Like, from the thirties and forties.  High Sierra, The Roaring Twenties, Public Enemy, etc.

Then this should be the very first thing you buy at that sale.

I've been thinking about double dipping for those recently rereleased Kurosawa Criterion sets, Sanjuro, Yojimbo, and Seven Samurai specifically, so I might use this as an opportunity to do it. 

Would it be worth double dipping for the Criterion version of Ran if I already have the Wellspring Masterworks edition?  That version still seems pretty pristine to me other than a few subtitle flubs that I can ignore reasonably.

I have a pretty huge list of other shit I might grab if I don't follow through with the above.

First of all - Ive bought a TON of DVDs at Deep Discount, and they've NEVER been used, so I dont know what Mike is talking about. Always new, always on the cheap, always arrive fast, always awesome.

As for purchases, Im not sure, except for one - this is DEFINATELY how Im gonna purchase the Leone boxset. Futureshop wants $82 CDN for it. Fuck that noise.

Sounds like what I will be using this sale for.

I want the Dollars trilogy more than water and food at the moment.
