That seems a fair price.

I just picked up this one. I've not seen it for about 15 years, but I remember it making me cry

Nice one Marc,

I have seen it but it was really ages ago. That's the one that stars Eric (almost Marty McFly) Stoltz and Sam Elliott's enormous moustache - and the rest of him too of course, right?

I seem to recall Stoltz's character being the only really sane, well adjusted, motivated and sober one in the whole film...that and Cher not being sorry or prepared to change from being a part-time stoner....

...that was MASK, yes?

Pretty much spot on DTG. I'm watching it right now. I was worried that it would be. Dissapointment after all these years but I have to say, it's a good movie and it looks great on LD.

Just picked up this: Tenchi Muyo in Love 2
What is it you ask?
Not really sure but I was intrigued with the contents
contents
Even comes with a CD and Film Splice

Not bad for a buck and change.

Is that a lightsaber?

I don't see anything that looks like a light saber on the pictures, but as Bulruckle mentioned it is a film splice (part of a 35mm negative, though it's possible that it's from an interpositive or just some sort of reprint).

Tenchi Muyo is a character from many animeseries and all of those animeseries are about his adventures. I'm not sure about how many series that were made, but there is alot to choose from and it's quite a popular franchise yet today. It's also reffered as a harem-series, that's when the main character has one specific sex while the other characters are the opposite. Usually, it's like the main character is a guy and all the others are girl and Tenchi Muyo is one those. Another example of a harem-series would be Love Hina for example.

They also made some films with him and the first one was called Tenchi the movie: Tenchi Muyo in love (1996), the second was called Tenchi the Movie 2: The Daughter of Darkness (1997) and the third was called Tenchi Muyo: Tenchi in Love 2 (1999).

Anyway, I bought my 100th Laserdisc some days ago and it was THX-WOW for just $15. That was a good deal

Ok, so by "good" you do realise that you are using a galactically immense understatement?

Great titles there. Great haul on CRITERIONs too. I really love the DEEP RISING LD. I think also, that I just have a thing for the STAR WARS boxed sets as I am after that too. I believe...Is there a white box version?

Well done BR, great buys.

I have that version of maniac. It has the Mr Robby promo on it. Would have been a great sequel. Unfortunate that Joe passed away. I also have the limited Anchor Bay maniac tin.

Ah nice! I have the Blue Underground double disk for my DVD copy. Has some great extras on it.

Damn Wim, thats a good bunch of discs there!
You order them all separate, or in a lot? Off of ebay?

Very nice pick up indeed
cant wiat to see the photos

I got them from DaDon's Laserdiscs, very friendly and helpful people and great service. It's three separate orders actually, but two are still on the way :-)
They have a lot of Japanese too, but I never really got into those (and they are pretty expensive). Are they worth it?

That is the EBay listings description. A couple of the discs have suspect markings which I believe may be laser rot and a couple are not quite excellent condition but the majority are great.

Good haul there! Great selection.

Just picked this lot up at auction. I could take or leave most of the lot but was very happy to find 3 criterions in there.

Massive score for me. 108 LD's, some still shrinkwrapped
Via a Lions Club sale across the road from where I work

This happened by complete pure luck. spotted the doors open at the club shed the other day and immediately saw a Pioneer Laserdisc box and a big tub of discs

All scored for $100 bucks. Many collectable titles
A video is being filmed today about them

a few horror, many steven seagal films, clint eastwood spaghetti westerns, dts of Volcano and many Arnie films
