eenie meenie, minie moe ... Realistcally, it just does happen to be whatever mood I seem to be in. Then again, that's why as of late, I've been averaging 3-4 purchases per week. It helps narrow the choices. If there's more than just I that needs to decide, sometimes we will do the...
The biggest problem that I see happens to consist of two scenarios that studios can not afford or are overlooking the idealism of content control: 1) alientating the majority of owners that are "collectors" 2) delivery system To expound on 2 - if these guys are talking about getting media...
Gosh, just think of the prices people paid for digital processing equipment back in the day when I had to walk 5 miles to school every day, up hill, rain or shine .. with dogs, big ones chasing me. The nerve. Seriously though, I was never into home theater in the LD days and that might be a...
Just picked this off over at BnB Bullets n Babes "Izo Mark Schilling in Tokyo 22 June 2004 Dir: Takashi Miike. 2004. Jap. 128mins. The bad boy of Japanese film, with a growing international following, Takashi Miike likes violence well enough, injecting everything from slow torture to...
Quote: Artsmagic is continuing its R1 Miike output in August with their biggest release yet: The Black Society Trilogy. http://www.artsmagicdvd.com/blacksocietytrilogy/ End Quote Looks like a great set, but I'd love to know the specs first and how much will be cut. Also "Black Society...

Miike .. is there no boundary for this guy? Nice to see his venture into the "chambara" bit. Then again, I don't know all of his films or content, so I apologize if this isn't his first based on my reference. Once again, thanks Thib .. for the head's up. Looks like a another Miike film to soon...
Eric. That's why true Asian cinema fans will get a region free player and support the correct overseas releases. The only release is the director's release. At least Fox has done some good for an American distributor with its wave of older martial arts rereleases. Miramax however, has...
There's a used copy on hold (for me if I choose to take it) at a local store for $60. Now, I already own 1 and 2, so the decision to rebuy the OOP 3 disk set is even more painful. So, I'm curious about a few things. 1) Is the third "extras" disk worth it? Are the features insightful, fun...

Hey Travis, check out this July release ofSky High. They also carry Azumi. However, I can not vouch for the legitimacy of this site, whether these are official releases or not. For instance, I can't find Sky High for less than $45 USD anywhere online except for this site. Both are also...
