I use to work at BigW, there is no ‘database’ and it sucked ■■■■■. It was such a load of shit.
If some dude laughed at me, then I found what I was looking for, I would be dragging him out the back and belting his face in.
Please, can anyone post a picture of the dvd back cover?
I found a heaps of RGB copies at Target Chatswood, 12 bucks, they also had heaps of dvds for sale so I picked up Short Circuit, and Never Ending Story for $9 ea and season 1 Extreme GB for $12. Big W was a mess, you couldnt make heads or tails with the way they had things set out on display, Target was worse but it was a fluke my gf found copies on a stand at the bottom buried behind some random dvds that weren’t meant to be there.
I’ve been going through the old 80’s movies the last few weeks and just re-watched Never Ending Story the other day, still awesome after all these years gotta watch no2 again, have never bothered with the 3rd though ( I also watched Boy Who Could Fly and Flight of the Navigator is next but i’m really getting off topic here)
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYY!!!
Is The Boy Who Could Fly about a kid who sits outside his window with his arms out, and has a girl next door who thinks he’s weird and mysterious? I vaguely remember that.
Other movies I liked were B.R.A.T. Patrol which starred Sean Astin, Flight of the Navigator, Goonies, Milly ■■■■■ (about an unpopular girl who turns into popular boy after a solar eclipse), and I-Man (Scott Bakula movie about a guy and his son that get exposed to radiation and become invincible).
Picked up my copy of Season 1 RGB today at Kmart for $13. A scream of joy accompanied me actually locating it on the shelves. Once I loaded it up and watched a few episodes I realised how f**king scary the episodes were! Im 26 and can happily recall the days when ch 10 screened it in the arvos. But my housemates and I watched the boogeyman ep (my sacrilegious housemates called it a ‘vintage cartoon’) and I realised how terryfying that character is! And the Sandman! Creepy as…so now I have a great reason to blame my current mental state ; )
Annyway, a great investment, and it brings back so many great memories. Just dont watch it in the dark!
the boogieman cometh scared the heck outta of me when i first saw it back watching it on saturdays mornings
thought i found myself laughing at some of the things that at the time back then i didnt get - (in troll bridge when ray is yelling after peter as they drive away - when i was a kid i didnt get that - but i just broke out giggling watching taht sence again
Aw damit I keep forgeting to pick this dvd up! >_< I’m hardly ever at a Big W. I must make sure I pick it up soon otherwise it’ll be lost in the black hole which is Big W. :sigh:
I know that the show freaked me out when I was kid hahaha But I watched a ‘heap’ on Youtube earlier this year. Some of those eps are pretty freaking scary. Like the one where they go to France and that dudes face just melts off D= But the lines they say are classic.
Ray: “Hey I have a jacket that colour”
Venkman:“And that Ray, is why you’re still a lonely man.”
:lol: classic hahahah
That and the animation is very excellent in quality for it’s time. Especially for just a tv series. They actually used spacing/timing correctly and followed through with movements. Sighhh you dont see that kind of quality nowadays. =(
I went searching for this on the weekend, but couldn’t find it anywhere =(
There’s always Ezydvd.com.au , but Big W were a little bit cheaper.
yeah ezydvd where a few dollars dearer but I was able to find Extreme Ghostbusters there the other day and I hadn’t seen that anywhere else
I’ll try again this weekend, otherwise ezydvd might have to do
Edit: Went looking again last night, but could only find Extreme Ghostbusters…which I bought…
