    The Fourth Protocol. The only thing that's a bit out of place is the ending. The rest of the film, while not great, is impeccably executed.

    @chrisisall, never seen that one before but I like Ritchie and his hyper-stylistic gangster type films, so I thought I'd buy it and check it out. What enticed you about it?
    I like both Ritchie and Butler. I'm in.

    I see. A very alluring Thandie Newton caught my eye as well.

    There IS that as a factor...

    Have you read the book? So much better (especially the set-up at the beginning), one of Forsyth's finest reads.

    Rocknrolla is an enjoyable film. If you like Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels and/or Snatch, you won't go wrong with this one. Classic Guy Ritchie, and probably one of his films I've seen most often. Thandie Newton is a highlight as well. One of those lost chances for a Bond girl.

    The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957) dir. Jack Arnold. Arrow Video blu-ray. One of my favourite 50s Sci-Fi films gets a HD release. Love this, comes with a documentary on Jack Arnold, a feature with Richard Matheson's son about the writing of the book, The Shrinking Man, trailers and one I'm really looking forward to the Super8 cut-down version that was released for home consumer. When I was in my mid-teens I had a Super8 set-up and managed to get Jason and the Argonauts, it came as four 50ft reels which I spliced together on one big reel…ah, those were the days.

    Then Rocknrolla is probably not the movie for you, @barryt007 – there's a lot of Butler in this one. Other than him, there's also Mark Strong, Thandie Newton (as mentioned above), Idris Elba, Tom Wilkinson, Gemma Arterton, Tom Hardy and others. Impressive cast for a film with a $18 million budget.

    Not the worst way of spending 114 minutes if you ask me – Butler fan or not. It's not like it's all about him and his character either. :-)

    It should be available on different streaming services for sure. Guy Ritchie's films usually are!

    I wish more of his films would get a UK R2 release, that is the second BR release that is Region 1(A).

    I forgot to upgrade my Equalizer collection. I’ll be purchasing that same box, as I only have Season 1. The rest are all taken from VHS.

    I bought the first series when it was released. But during what turned out to be a four year gap between series 1 & 2, I didn't think any more series were going to be released, so I sold off the first series.

    Is that in Blu-Ray format, Major? The new box set, that is?

    No, DVD. The only BRs I have, are those dual format DVD/BR releases. My collection is too large to upgrade to BR (those that are available on BR), only to do it all over again for whatever the next format is going to be.

    Good selection I have all of those, I bought Stargate Ultimate Edition a few months back on BD stands up well, plus Arnold's score is very good.

    I always liked the movie Stargate, this is the Directors cut so I will see what the difference is with my dvd copy.

    It's slightly better than the theatrical version it's definitely one of Roland Emmerich better films, I am a big fan of the TV show bought the TV movies on BD also Stargate Continuum looks great.

    Stargate has a really interesting concept.
