Wanted: Big Trouble in Little China WS LaserDisc (1 Viewer)

[Aaron Reynolds]

I'm looking for a widescreen LD of Big Trouble in Little China. I have some odds and ends to offer as trades, or I'm willing to spend some money.

Thanks!

 

[Conroy Tesa]

Aaron
I have a copy. Where in Canada are you? T.O. Area?
What do you have for trades?

 

[Aaron Reynolds]

Yep, I'm in Toronto.

What kind of stuff are you looking for?

I have a Beatles appearance on Ready Steady Go I'd love to get rid of. And tons of other stuff. Let me know what you like and I'll make a list.

 

[Conroy Tesa]

Presently looking for
DVDs
Starship Troopers SE
Blue Velvet SE

Xbox Titles

LD
IJ and the temple of doom.

I know these might seem specific or expensive (unbalanced trades) but we can involve cash to balance things out.

OR

I'm willing to accept cash.


PS I have a few other LD titles I'm also no longer in need of.

 

[Sean Dayton]

I have one also for sale or trade.

 

[Aaron Reynolds]

Conroy -- what other titles do you have that you want to get rid of? I'm always looking for more LDs.
I have a pan&scan Temple of Doom I'd be willing to trade, if you'd want that. I'd trade it straight up for BTiLC, since my ToD is p&s. Any more acronyms I can throw in there?

 

[Conroy Tesa]

I'll post a list this weekend. Too busy till then
If you are interested in any we could meet.
I live and work downtown.

 

[Aaron Reynolds]

I live around Lawrence West station. I work in Oakville, but I'm sure we could figure out either a night or weekend meeting.

You interested in that p&s Temple of Doom? Yeah, I know, p&s sucks. It was a gift.

I finally found a widescreen Last Crusade -- I didn't buy it when it was new, and then I just could never find a copy at a reasonable price. Anyhow, a friend in Japan sent me one. Japanese subtitles, but on the lower letterbox bar, so no biggie.

For some reason, I'm not the biggest Temple of Doom fan, aside from the spectacular opening sequence at the club.

 

[Conroy Tesa]

Here is the list I have available (LD)
All are widescreen and I noted the DD(AC-3) ones

Jurassic Park ( no DD/DTS)

[Aaron Reynolds]

Are The Killer and Hard Boiled the CAVs or CLVs?

I'd certainly be interested in James and the Giant Peach, A Clockwork Orange and maybe X-Files. What would you want for them? And what kind of stuff would you be looking for in the way of trades?

 

[Conroy Tesa]

They are the CLVs(non box sets.)
I'll take cash but for trade, do you have DVD's or xbox games?
If not any LD?
Just list the stuff here.

I'm sure I have more that I'm willing to part with. I'll go through my shelves tonight and make a further list. Let me know if anything here piques your interest or you need any further info about any of them.

 

[Conroy Tesa]

The lion king looks good.
Check your LIB tonight.
We can do a trade/cash deal if you want.

 

[Aaron Reynolds]

Just looking around at the store here, I also seem to have aquired A River Runs Through It (widescreen), Far and Away (widescreen), Shattered (edit: NOT widescreen, sorry, thought it was. No wonder I've never watched the disc) and some episodes of The Monkees TV series.
And a pile of movies from the 80s I've never heard of, all p&s. If you want me to list them, I will, but they seem pretty bottom of the barrel. For instance, there's Jack's Back, with James Spader, and something called Twisted Obsession with Jeff Goldblum. These are the things you accumulate when you buy someone's whole collection to get two discs.

 

[Aaron Reynolds]

Presumed Innocent (widescreen)
A Taxing Woman (full frame, english subtitles, mono)
Mad Dog and Glory (widescreen)
Kazaam (widescreen) -- I know, I know. It was a gag gift.

The Babe (John Goodman) p&s, sealed -- thought I was buying Babe, the talking pig movie, from an online clearance dealer
The Highlander 10th Anniversary (widescreen, THX, DD) -- has some candle wax on the cover
Pet Shop Boys: Performance (concert from the Behavior tour)
Far and Away (widescreen)

Twisted Obsession (full frame) with Jeff Goldblum
Into The Homeland (what the hell is this film? As far as I can tell, it was made for HBO. Anyways, it has C. Thomas Howell, Powers Boothe, Cindy Pickett and Paul LeMat in it! Talk about 80s power cast! )
Not much good stuff added, really.

 

[Aaron Reynolds]

Oh, and I appear to have given away Jack's Back, starring James Spader. As I recall, I had a friend who was amused by the quote on the back cover that read The city's in chaos. The hookers are scared. or something like that, so I gave it to him.

 

[Aaron Reynolds]

bump for Conroy!
