Put some of the more difficult-to-find-for-cheap titles in the title.

Others that may be of interest:
Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence
The Tin Drum
Never Look Away
La Strada
Puberty Blues
Cloak & Dagger

And I'll save you guys the time:
"What's a dvd???"
"I donated all my old movies to the op shop a few years ago. Didn't know people still owned these"
"What's the point in discs when streaming?"
"I don't even own a Blu-ray player any more haha"

Feel free to post more stupid and irrelevant comments that I've forgotten 😊

    That's a pretty good one, although you could probably even remove "Marvel" from the title to cast a wider net

  Sausage Party is great. Get the 4k copy if you have a 4k Player though.

  A little off topic.
  I’ve been doing quite a bit of spring cleaning in my house the last two weeks. I have so much original physical media - VHS tapes. DVDs., Blu-rays, music cds , music tapes, vinyl records and game discs and cartridges. The last time I bought original physical media were wii games mid to late 2000s. I’ll definitely still keep all my vinyl records, and original game consoles snes, ps1, n64 and wii.
  Is anything else worth keeping ?
  if I throw everything else out it will free up a heap of space.

    Some DVDs and Blu-rays are Out Of Print (OOP) and may be worth something, always good to check eBay for some of the less common titles. You can hit me up for some of them.

      Good to know

      Got a heap of bubblegum cards from late 70s and 80s which I’ll also keep.

      Thanks

    I was tossing up a couple of these. Have you seen any of them previously?

    I ended up just going with Frances Ha, Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence and La Strada

      I haven't seen any of them but the Tin Drum has been on my list for years, the Andromeda Strain as well (the second movie has less good reviews, I checked Letterboxd and IMDb). And I couldn't pass up on a cheapo Umbrella.

        We think very similarly, although I've mostly forgone IMDB and just stick with LB

          mrwak on 13/09/2023 - 08:45

          @Ninternet: I still use IMDB for the trivia section and to get a glimpse of whether a movie is good or not AT A GLANCE - LB is great but no one actively says that a movie is bad and sometimes I just need to know before committing to it, haha.

  Many thanks Ninternet for the deals and the humour.

  I very gladly got "Andromeda Strain" (a double), "Spotswood" (Anthony Hopkins), "Never look away" (Florian Henckel director of "The lives of others") and "The father".

  A very satisfactory fourty odd dollars worth, and especially good now that discs seem to be endangered species and the cost of imports is horrendous.

    I grabbed Never Look Away as well in the end. Alongside the Tin Drum. Yet to watch them!

      I don't think you'll regret "Tin Drum", it is excellent.

      Another less well known but valuable blu-ray there is De Palma's "Casualties of war".

      This is one of the few if not only US movie I am aware of that deals with some of the consequences of the war on the noncombatants. It is a sorry and lamentable tale of a small group of US soldiers acting badly, that unlike the My Lai tragedy, was dealt with firmly by the Army. The late Pauline Kael wrote a 14 page review of it !
