    Beck's new album 'Guero'

    Does anybody have this yet? I've had it on repeat since I bought it yesterday, it's just excellent. It really reminds me of Odelay. So far my favorite tracks are Emergency Exit and Hell Yes, but there are many standouts on this album. Beck surprises me with great music and lyrics everytime.

    Atari to reissue games for Xbox/PS2....

    ...well 85 of them anyway. Just read this article on Yahoo Atari to Reissue Scores of Old Games If they release the disc here i'll definitely be buying it. It is also neat to see them releasing a mini Atari 7800.

    Private Parts, any chance of a re-release?

    What are the chances of Paramount giving us a new release of Howard Stern's Private Parts? I don't know what kind of following it has here but I would love to get an anamorphic release. I read a couple of years ago that Stern wanted to get a whole heap of extras for the DVD but Paramount...

    A guide to MST3k on DVD ?

    Is there a guide to MST3k on DVD? I have never seen the show because it never airs over here but it sounds like something right up my alley so I would like where a good place to start is. Vol. 1 seems to be a logical place but some of the reviews say it isn't the best example of how funny the...

    *** Official TROY Review Thread

    A disappointing film despite the presence of some fine actors. None of them shine because of the script which is uninspiring and contains a lot of stilted dialogue. The biggest downfall is that Horner has delivered one of the most uninvolving and instrusive scores in years, it is so over the top...

    What are the chances of 'Undeclared' on DVD?

    I was listening to an interview with Judd Apatow a couple of weeks ago and he said if Freaks and Geeks sells well there would be a strong possibility of getting Undeclared released. Does anyone have any figures on how F&G is selling at this point?

    28 Days Later

    I've pre-ordered this title blind based on the fact that i've heard good things about it and the release date has been pushed back to September here. Seems like it should be a nice DVD package. I'm curious to see what others thought of the film and who is a good UK company for importing R2...

    General TV Question

    Thought you guys would be the best to answer this question. I have a mate who is currently living in the US, he will soon be coming to Australia to live for a few years and owns one of the Panasonic PT53WX42 RPTV's. Besides the obvious voltage conversion would the set actually work in this...

    Enemy at the Gates ?

    I'm looking at buying this film, should it be the R1 copy or the local R4 copy with DTS? I'm usually a R1 Exclusive person but the inclusion of DTS is enticing.

    Well since nobody else (aside from a couple in the discussion thread) has posted reviews for Minority Report I will post my little review. (On advice from Tino) :) I strongly feel that this is the best film I have been to this year. Which comes as a suprise to me because it starred Tom Cruise...

    Tenacious D ?

    I'm a big Jack Black fan but haven't really listened to any of Tenacious D's music aside from "Tribute" which I loved. They are playing in Sydney in a couple of weeks (which is about an hour from me). Is it worth checking them out live? Or should I pass? EDIT: Sorry, should have used the...

    Ali - 4/23

    DVD File reports that Ali has already been announced for a 4/23 release, no details on the extras yet but the retail is $27.95 . Quite a quick release, I think Sony were expecting this to be much bigger than it was.

    State and Main - What did everyone else think?

    I had been wanting to see this movie for a long time, and I finally got the chance when it came out on DVD recently here in Australia. I'm so glad I did this was one of the funniest films in recent memory, I thought William H. Macy stole the show as the fictional film's director. Phillip...

    Online Retailing and Shipping

    I was wondering if online vendors are allowed to ship titles to international destinations before their shipping dates? I have been ordering more and more online lately and some titles have been shipping 1 week before street date. Is this possibly to compensate the delay so I don't recieve it...
