Ah well, I'll bite. I actually didn't pick up much (anything?) in this sale that was a blind buy. I'll drop another $4.79 and get one surprise in the mail...

Actor Ron Silver's directorial debut is a futuristic adaptation of Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat. In this nail-biter, a spaceship blows up on Christmas Eve. Eight passengers survive, and as they try to determine the reason their ship was destroyed, it becomes clear that someone among them is a terrorist responsible for the explosion. Tensions mount as supplies of food, water and oxygen run thin. Robert Loggia, Ron Silver and Cork Hubbert star.

Prequels suck don't waste your time and I would suggest waiting for original versions once released. Like jaymz said.
Me I will wait for a full 1-6 episode boxset. I am a sucker for boxsets. I hate the first 3 movies yet I will have to buy the full boxset. I need help.

Now here's an odd one. I had several DVDs in my shopping cart honing my order for the last few days, and Galaxy Quest (DTS Edition) disappeared from my cart. I checked the site to see if it's still there and sure enough, it's gone- only the Dolby Digital version is available from them now. As this is an older release I'm guessing they can no longer get it from their distributor?

I've had to do this before with DDD, it's like orders get 'stuck' in their system or something and once they look it up, it gets processes. Or it could just be incredibly good timing and coincidental.

Find it odd? Sort of. Annoying? Most definitely.

Interested in mostly musicians from around the 50's to 70's. The Dylan one was especially great because it focused a lot on the scene itself and not just Dylan. Very well researched and made. A couple other music-related DVDs I own and enjoy are "Gimme Shelter" and "Live Aid". Suggestions?
Complete Monterey Pop Festival
