The Rewind Forums (NEW)

Usually I don't care much for extras on the big studios' releases because they are more often than not just as said, promotional fluff, without anything beyond the superficial hype to offer for the film aficionados but with the smaller, more dedicated distributors like Arrow, Shout! Factory ...

Germany has the duty-free limit at 45€ for gifts/non-commercial goods and 22€ for commercial goods from non-EU countries. You can check the details HERE.

Cobra (UK Blu) - Far from Sly's best, yet still an enjoyable little film with some hilariously hammy dialogue. 6/10


Far from Sly's best indeed but still a shame the nearly twice as long workprint version has never been released officially, even as a bonus feature like some other similar 80s ...

It annoys me so much when distributors do this and split up the extras across several different retailers and various playback formats. Besides the Best Buy and Target exclusives, the extensive ~160 min video commentary track is an iTunes exclusive, in addition for also exclusively featuring the ...

That's good to hear. Considering it's been OOP for a long time and nearly impossible to get for a reasonable price these days and first of all thanks to you reminding me of its existence again, I'm now considering to get a similar filing cabinet custom-made with a few carpenter friends. Shouldn't ...

I've never bought any Brazilian releases from Brazil.. only a few DVDs long ago from a domestic auction site. :( Would be interested in getting some tho.

I remember that wooden beast of an X Files set and then some! How much does that go for these days? Did you recieve yours in mint condition? I ...

The flash sale had some great titles, tho I already had all the ones I would have wanted so didn't grab anything.

As for the forthcoming titles, lots of interesting ones there. More Vincent Price classics is never a bad thing and Delta Force is one of my fav Norris flicks.
I'll probably pass on the ...

Yup, I added the CE set soon after I had bought it. I have always enjoyed the series and it's a shame indeed they used the same dated transfer from the previous release or at least one very close to it; don't have the older one to compare side by side. Kind of lame not to create a new anamorphic ...

Yeah it's the 5% I'm talking about when you're not allowed to do anything.

One, admittedly not really important, annoyance is some, mainly US, DVDs have the plastic wrapper glued to the spine of the keep case, resulting in an ugly and uneven surface.
Oh I have come across this issue so many times and have replaced dozens of cases to get nice looking spines. The flakey ...

That is annoying indeed. Even the Dutch and Germans who used to have forced subs on nearly every dvd, rarely have forced subs in their releases these days. Some do but for the amount I've come across recently, they are in the minority.

Yes, they're there. I noticed most of the longer IMAX sequences right away during the first time I was watching the film years ago.
From what I recall, at least the opening bank heist, convoy chase, Rachel's death and the ending sequence leading to the end titles were filmed completely in IMAX, then ...

Holy cow, Batman! KAPOW!

They don't even ship to Russia or Ukraine...
Yes they do, check again. Just tested and their shop showed both destinations as available.
Just add an item into your shopping cart, then go view your cart and select the option "Estimate shipping and taxes" down on the page. Choose the destination ...

As Happy as it can be 2014 to all!

Indeed. Tho I haven't even checked the DVD disc of the EFNY combo yet so wasn't paying much attention to that. I still do have the old SE DVD :lol: .
A much better transfer was a key element for me getting the US blu. John Carpenter is one of my fav directors (of his peak directing era 70s-early 90s ...

Never watched or even redeemed a digital copy related to any DVD/BD release I've bought and probably won't. Just not my thing.
I have downloaded/streamed some titles on a laptop a few times during long train rides tho after recieving gift cards from a few domestic online stores but it still isn't ...

My top10 annoyances, more or less all have been said already but I'll revisit anyway.

1. DNR overkill .
- Too many fantastic films have been ruined by overuse of DNR, especially for grain removal, and this practice won't end because majority of people just love how their favourite films now look ...

Don't worry about it if you can't be bothered to look for the UK set. I'll put this season on hold for now and will advance with other seasons in the meantime until I've got some sort of info why we got a different version of the episode than the rest of the world apparently. Pan Vision and many ...

I'm currently writing down specs for Miami's third season (DVD) to be added soon, included will be at least Scandinavian, US and German releases, possibly Dutch too if I can find a detailed enough a review showing where some of the specific extras are located (they might not be quite on the same ...
