Get you a cat and roughly 14 cartons of cigarettes and you'll be set.
You've picked a great one, alongside Munich, Flashbacks of a Fool and Defiance.
Defiance funnily enough I was just thinking about, and I know you will think this is bad, despite having Munich on dvd for years I still have not watched it. I'll look for both on Bluray.
I am a big fan of Fincher and until you mentioned it I forgot he had directed The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, I have the films you mentioned also I rated Gone Girl that was quite engrossing. I like films set in Scandinavia or a bleak backdrop, I am guessing The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is neo noir type of film.
I have many of Spielbergs films though not so much of his more recent pictures, still not seen films like Lincoln, War Horse or Bridge of Spies. I'll see if I can find Munich now I have got night off though slept all day, it will give me something to do :)
Edited: @Creasy47 just found this for £9.99 looks a nice set...
@Fire_and_Ice_Returns, wow, I'd definitely go with that version, looks beautiful. I bought the generic amaray blu-ray when it came out for a good $20, would've loved to have a special edition with some art cards and a slipbox.
Well it's £25 brand new, the one I ordered is second hand though says 'like new' which is a gamble. The seller has a 98 per cent rating, if immaculate it's a bargain saving myself £15.
I'd pull the trigger - definitely a steal if it comes with everything. Could check the fine print to see if it omits those art cards or even the slipbox.
It Says only watched once and advertised as complete set, if they are anything like me I would guess the Art Cards are sealed.
The movie also follows the tradition of Poe and Doyle's detective stories, where bizarre, haunting and/or gruesome yarns are solved by a particularly bohemian and eccentric "detective" type with help from a more ordinary everyman like Watson. In this case Rooney Mara's character is the female bohemian and good old Danny boy is the everyman brought into it all. He's also a journalist, bringing him that much closer to a Waston like scribe transcribing the events of the unfolding mystery.
Pull the trigger then, no doubt it'll just seem like it was opened once and never touched. What a steal, I really hope you love the film. If not, guess you'll just have to toss the extras my way!
I am aware the Noomi Rapace version exists though I know very little about the story, I'll probably be pleasantly surprised going in cold. Sounds good I am a fan of Conan Doyle type detective story's, I went through a period of not bothering with films which is good later on when you discover films you missed.
I have got the day off today (Wednesday) I'll try and watch it this afternoon, I am certainly more eager to watch it, there is another film that I need to watch also called Wind River which looks interesting in the same sub genre.
Please let me know your thoughts on Wind River, as well, please! If you enjoy any of Taylor Sheridan's scripts - Sicario or Hell or High Water - then you'll love this, for which he both wrote the script and made his directorial debut on. He also wrote the sequel to Sicario debuting this summer, too.
Munich bought lol Spielberg rarely misses I am sure I'll like it.
I was going to rent Wind River is it worth buying?
I still have not seen Sicario though been watching a few UHD Blurays on ebay, looking to get a brand new copy at a lowish price.
I also picked up Hell Or High Water just last week on the cheap, so I'll watch that to get an idea of what to expect from these kinds of scripts of Sheridan's in preparation. I also still need to see Sicario, now that I'm on the subject. I watch so much vintage stuff that I often forget what's being made in the here and now. I'm usually right not to see a lot of films made these days, but every once in a while some great and original films come along that show you craft still exists.
I tend to leave some of the newer films alone so I can get them cheaper later on, since the digital revolution in movies I tend to buy rather than rent, I hate renting a film I end up liking then pay extra to buy it after lol
@FoxRox it costs me a fortune visiting this site ;)) over time I have had some good films recommended I may not have otherwise watched.
True almost too much to watch, I barely scratch the surface with streaming content. I deleted my Netflix account yesterday again, I hope to catch up on films and TV on Amazon Prime which tend to have better movies.
I just watched the trailer for Hell or High Water the film looks good and great cast.
It's a nice modern day western/heist thriller, of sorts. Solid chemistry between Pine and Foster, too, with a great appearance by Jeff Bridges. Hope you enjoy it!
A masterpiece, that one ! I don't know why I haven't bought it sooner (or rather, i know too well : money troubles. Big ones).
To complete the set, even if it's better than the fourth movie.
Haven't seen it in theater, but I enjoyed Godzilla, so I thought why not ?
Haven't seen it either, but I'm a completist, so I knew I had to buy it sooner or later to complete my Marvel Universe Movies set.
And just received from Amazon :
And watched it right away. Gorgeous !
Next month, I’ll likely be picking up: Coco, The Shape of Water, The Disaster Artist, and Lady Bird. Possibly more. Hoping to have some spare cash.
It does look good from trailer, been unwell last few days hopefully watch it at the weekend.
Just ordered...
Not the biggest fan of Tim Burtons take, bought it to complete the set so to speak.
