Rico,I've been holding back for a few weeks on DVD purchases, but I loaded up this morning.
Stray Dog
Zatoichi/Sonatine
Dr. Strangelove (new version)
Gone With the Wind
Marx Brothers
Red Beard
Hero (Region 3)Other than Amazon, Criterion films are still very expensive at almost every B/M retailer.
Zatoichi looks and sounds great.
One bit of advice for Marx Brothers fans...don't buy the other box set, unless you really have to get their worst films. Buy A Night at the Opera and A Day at the Races individually.
Hero is a region 3 release in DTS:ES and it looks and sounds incredible. The Region 1 copy is due out in a month.
Bring on that cold winter weather.
