Get Over It

and
The former is one of my favorite swashbucklers featuring one of the best sword battles in screen history. Probably Stewart Granger's best film while Eleanor Parker and Janet Leigh perfectly provide a Ginger and Mary Ann balance to the roles of his leading ladies.
The latter is screen writer Ernest Lehman's partial remake of his earlier classic North By Northwest. It rivals Deadlier Than The Male as my favorite Elke Sommer pic. I like the delightful name for her character(Miss Inger Lisa Andersen) though I'm quite fond of the brunette(Diane Baker) in the film as well:
Paul Newman must've had a lot of fun making that movie.
But, it wasn't my fault that they even arrived, thanks to the terrible customer service who ensured me that they would be canceled. Going to call Monday to get a free return slip and get my full money back. Deposited my Xbox One cancelation money into my bank account tonight, so I'm prepared for lots of great deals on blu-rays over the next week or two.
I didn't really like that one. It's allright for a quick Elke fix, but Lisa And The Devil is my favourite.

11 November.
DVD: The Brothers Bloom (2008). Be on my wishlist before i have BD player. Buying dvd for € 1,25, and i don't whant to wait til i can buy the BD disc for € 4,00 or less for both not having bonus material.
21 November:

The complete soundtrack of the movie also be avaible on the Blu-Ray in DTS 5.1. Only other extra's are Making Off, Commentary track and Deleted Scenes. Insteed of this soundtrack promo i wish there release the bonus disc in my country too, but atleast it inprovement on the version without it.
Specifications:
BD: Zookeeper (2011).
Oh, I do. It's the closest Elke ever got to playing a Hitchcock blond. I consider The Prize comparable with midrange Hitchcock kinda like DTTM is comparable with midrange Bond. Plus, it's got that cool Jerry Goldsmith score shortly before he scored The Man From UNCLE and the Derek Flint films.
Love the dialogue in this scene:
"You speak very good English for a non-drinker, Miss?"
"Greta Garbo. "
"Hmm. Mind if I call you Ingrid?"
"Not at all."
and the whole rest of the scene where Diane lures Newman out of trouble at the Golden Crown nightclub and back to the Grand Hotel where Elke in the lobby looks on disapprovingly while smoking that long cigarette. Probably my favorite comical scene in the flick.
EDIT: Getting Black Friday crazy. Picked up 'The Outlaw Josey Wales' blu-ray digibook (the right version, not the wrong one I received that I have to return from a separate site), 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest' blu-ray digibook, and 'The Untouchables' on blu-ray, all under $24. Fantastic deal.
EDIT 2: Why not? Picked up 'Kingdom of Heaven' for about $7.50 on blu-ray as an Amazon Lightning Deal. It's the Director's Cut, so it's three hours of entertainment.
Good Will Hunting (1997)
Extra's not subtiteld, but the BD release not have any bonusmaterial and has very bad video quality.
I whant to say sorry to whylen Desmond LLwelyn (Rip 1999). For a very long time he stay at the lead of moost actors in my collection with his 17 Bond movies. With buying
Good Will Hunting today he moved to the 2th place. For forgive me for my sins: My 18th movie (17 starring and 1 voice) with Matt Damon. 3th place be for Angelina jolie (15). 4th place be George Clooney, Pierce Brosnan and Robbie Coltrane with 14 and 5th place be Bernard Lee, Michael G Wilson, Cameron Diaz and Michael Gambon with 12.
Sylvia (2003). My 9th (none Bond) movie starring Daniel Craig. 1 to go and he stay in draw with Pierce Brosnan. There stil be a couple of Daniel Craig and Brosnan movies i whant to collect.

Shiner
The Statement
Margin Call
Decided to complete my Predator & Alien collection, and both AvP movies together were €5,50 so not too big a bloodletting financially.
You were robbed! ;-)
AvP was enjoyable enough.
I guess one has to recognise that neither franchise will ever do what the audience (read fanboys) want them to do. In that aspect AvP was a fairly decent movie with a nice ending.
What I like about the more recent additions to this franchise are Rodrigues' attempt to an oldfashioned actioner invoving humans & predators.
And Ridley Scotts attempt was beautifull visual and did in a sense create more questions than it answered them, it boldy took it a different direction that expected. I loved it.
The 1st AvP is a fun and lighthearted actioner involving those penisheaded aliens and our rastahunters from out of space. It did stay true to the franchise albeit with less gore than usual.
