Yeah, it's a fair point. I don't do it because I like going into a shop and buying it, I don't know why.
Oh right, well are you from Uk, if so , thats whats proberbly happened to me.
Yes, I know what you mean. Going it to the shop is nice. I do it sometimes. It depends on if it's a bargin online or not. Now, i wish i haddent bothered lol
I usually pre order but this time I was planning to buy it in HMV after watching Skyfall. Impatience got the better of me so I ordered it yesterday morning and received at 3.30 today :-)
Yeah im from the uk too that was on another bond forum
No I was there in an ironic capacity and to document it for you guys :)
Seriously if Gervais & Merchant want to do a follow up to Life's Too Short then Lifes Too Tall with Richard Kiel would be uproarious entertainment. Attending things such as this brings home the fallacy that celebrity is the greatest aspiration a human can dream of.
The fan who won the gold case; I'm sure he's a nice guy and all (got to hedge my bets in case he's a mod on here!) but it would be difficult to conceive of someone who could be more the antithesis of Bond.
Yes I might be able to quote every film and vast tracts of Fleming, I might be able to tell you who was 2nd unit director on OHMSS or that Bob Holness was the second actor to play James Bond by I can assure you I am nothing like that guy!
I'm still happy at my 97% score on Channels 5s 100% bond special quite a few years back
A lot TV or film series has some shall we say very dedicated fans when i see some of them i realize i am more sane than I realized :D
Haha, you should have seen the guys that won the Avengers BluRay and DVD boxsets at my local multimedia store!
Rant over and it's just a sideline really the money spent was worth it.
Goldenye is intermittently brilliant, there was always an inherent grain on GE which has been preserved here, the opening shot of the film proper with the nose of the Aston in the foreground is immense.
YOLT again stays true to its original pallette and the detail is wonderful, Seans toupee has never been so obvious. Ha ha.
Seriously though. A really wonderful set. I concur @Shardlake.
Glad to hear that you are happy with the quality of OHMSS. Based on the quality of the blu's already released I wouldn't have expected anything less....looking forward to checking out OHMSS for myself.

What made you think kiel celebrity status was dissapointing?
You have to agree being a celebrity like kiel, being paid to sign autographs, free food, accomodation, parties, movie premieres, being chaffeured around the world doesn't sound too shabby.
You underestimate the lifestyle of a celebrity.
Excellent news, I'm very jealous! I was going to see the showing at Tysons Corner in Virginia, but I'm about three to four hours away from it, and I have classes all day tomorrow, so I couldn't make it. I kept thinking of how amazing it must be to win. If you've already purchased your copy of the box set, feel free to send me that one, haha.
I bet. I was pretty ecstatic to read about someone winning the box set in every location, only to see the date of the showing for DN. If I had the money to go, along with the free time from college, I would have made the trip to see it. Glad you enjoyed yourself, and congratulations on winning!
