My Latest Purchase in the off topic with no Elvis items please.
Items to include would be CD's / DVD's and books. My latest purchase is the Jeeves and Wooster Complete series on DVD. I bought this set from the new Woolworths on-line shop. What oh?

QUOTE .......hey is it okay if Johan brings over his new movie Valkyrie? - can't stand tom cruise however - it got great reviews and a friend told me that I just HAD to see it cause it was just that good. It's not THAT good Donna.. The setting is right,the costumes too,acting is decent,even the story is 100% good...it's pretty filmed.. But Germans who speak perfect English? Nope,dat does'nt sounds right. It's hard to believe the actors in the character their playing because of that. I never had the feeling i was watching the real event. From a historical point of view is that a big letdown. Movies like this should stay factual(certainly in language) Perfect example was the brilliant "Der untergang". German actors bring to live what was history... -------------------- |

It started in German Johan. I think that they did that bit quite well. Changing to English, but at the same time, realising that it was indeed German they were speaking. It is a good film. We bought it a few weeks ago. But nowhere near as good as it is made out to be. Cruise is excellent though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif)

Didn't think much to it to be honest..( Valkyrie). I agree Tom Cruise is good...but it wasn't as good as i expected it to be. Agree with Shaun about the German bit...they kinda got around that at the start of the movie by starting in German and blending to English. Worth a watch i suppose...but nothing that special.
12 rounds starring John Cena ( WWE fame ) was pretty decent. Nothing brilliant...but an enjoyable action movie. Also enjoyed Inkheart.....but i must admit..no movies i have watched of late have been anything other than ok. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/undecided.gif) -------------------- TCB Chris
You may think that its the breeze...whistling through the lonely trees..but its only him a flyin' round the bend... as the day comes to an end.........   |

My latest non Elvis purchase are;
I have been buying John Wayne DVD's lately. Especially the degastini collection or whatever is going new and cheap. Recently I bought a John Wayne double DVD set The Comancheros/The Undefeated and The Quiet Man, Rooster Cogburn, Rio Grande, Fort Apache and The Big Country. I use to throw away the cases as they do take up space but I miss looking at the cases. I am buying some DVD's for back up copies with cases. Now all I need is some furniture to keep the DVD's. -------------------- Frank

My latest purchases;
I finally got The Omen Pentology DVD set at Morrisons for £7.99. Very good value for money. It's the 30th Anniversary edition. The Omen 1,2,3,4 and the remake of The Omen 1. I also bought the Hellcats of The Navy DVD. The only film with Ronald and Nancy together. That cost £2. Morrison's has cheap DVD's at the moment. There is baskets of DVD's you have to sort if you want any. I wish they would stack them for easy search. -------------------- Frank

My latest purchases;
DVD Films; A Bridge Too Far Gone With The Wind The Longest Day I am collecting my collection again and keeping the cases this time. After Christmas I hope to buy a bookcase for storing DVD's. Although DVD 's look better with the cases it does take up room. I could do with a bigger storage room for my CD / DVD / Books. -------------------- Frank
