    My used DVD store rocks!!!

    I just want to let you all know about my used movie store.  It rocks.  No, it feckin’ rocks.  It is The CDWarehouse.
    I joke that the 20-somethings working there know me by name but it’s true.
    I went there the other week and bought some flicks and to my astonishment it was the, “Your Lucky Day”, sale that they run every now and again.  I scooped 4 flicks for under 20 bucks.  Woo freakin’ hoo!
    So today I popped in absolutely convinced that I was not going to spend more than 10 dollars.  I found two films of interest to me.  They were kinda’ like fillers to the collection if you know what I mean.  Not really ones I might have considered to see in a theatre but flicks I think I might like anyways.
    They were, in order;
    Pirates of the Caribbean, Three and Delta Farce
    The Pirates movie I’m gonna’ watch as soon as I post this but the other one I just finished watching so you’re going to get a review of it whether you like it or not.  
    Delta Farce stars Larry, The Cable Guy
    Need I say more?
    Didn’t think so.
    Take your brain off the hook and enjoy it.
    There is a running joke through it…
    “What we got here is a Mexican stand-off!”
    Then the Mexican guy turns and says, “Down here we just call it a stand off”
    Ok, it’s that kind of humor but its well put together.
    I liked it.
    Alright, it’s taken me awhile to get to my point of this post.
    Also today I moved my James Bond collection further to completion.
    I got GOLDFINGER!!!
    The crown jewel of my 007 movie collection.
    C’mon Honor Blackman was a babe and a half in 1965!!!
    I also snagged a copy of The Man with the Golden Gun.
    YES!  YES!
    Both of these cinematic adventures cost an entire 6 bucks!!!

    So, now the only outstanding films needed to complete my collection are as follows;
    On Her Majesty’s Secret Service
    And
    Casino Royale (1956)
    Casino Royale (1967)
    Oh and yes, I do have, “Never Say Never Again”(1983)

    1. Honor Blackman is still a babe – one very elegant lady!
      Glad I’m not the only one with DVD collections! I think your Bond collection is doing a bit better than mine, though! :-)

      I rarely buy DVD’s although they’re cheap if you buy the ‘used’ ones from Blockbuster. Hire a lot though . . . there’s no James Bond like Connery to my mind

      AbVan, I just did a quick search about her. Very interesting lady, she is.
      Technogirly, A bunch of the DVD’s I buy for $6 still have the blockbuster sticker on them offering them for sale for $15 or $16.
      For years I would have agreed with you about Sean Connery but a few years ago I decided to watch all the Bond movies I had at the time in order. Here are my thoughts on the eight actors who have played 007.
      Barry Nelson, I have never seen the 1956 Casino Royale.
      Sean Connery, the yardstick of which all Bond actors will be judged.
      George Lazenby, Great up there with Connery.
      Roger Moore, I use to call him Bond-lite but the more I re-watch his movies the more I really like him as Bond, James Bond.
      Timothy Dalton, sucked!
      Pierce Brosnan, I liked him as Bond but the flicks were way over the top in SFX and that, to me, detracted from all of them.
      David Niven, Casino Royale 1967. I haven’t seen it in 30 years so I can’t really comment.
      The new guy, I like the newest Casino Royale. By the end of the flick I thought he was OK. The next Bond movie will tell.

      yeaaaahhh rockin, im a bond fan :) unusual for a gal I know, but I really like james bond, even Daniel craig, and not many like him but I think he did a great job and we get to see the vunerable side of bond in it, lookin forward to The Quantum Of Solice, but I think the name sucks! :)

      I think the used dvd market is bigger than the new one now. Much like with cds. Every self respecting man has a james bond collection. I also managed to find goldfinger the other day by searching for it at http://www.dvdusedsearch.com – a site my friend recommended to me.
