Excellent video and pickups Alan 👍
My lord... £20 for those retro Indiana Jones figures in Forbidden Planet... that's about $40 over here... they've been rattling around in bargain bins for about $6 recently...
Hi Dave, it’s Forbidden Planet and they are so overpriced in there, I’m surprised they don’t charge you an entry fee 🤑 wow $6 is really cheap though 😮 hope your doing well Dave, enjoy the rest of your week mate, take care👍😃👍
Plenty out this week Alan, especially for the Bogart fans!
Lovely and sunny down there. Take care mate 👍
Hi mate, I do enjoy a Humphrey Borgart movie myself and that will be apparent ext week 😉 it was a beautiful day, roll on summer. Cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
Hi Alan, beautiful day. It’s been gloomy over here for days now and with a chance of rain during the week. HMV has so many good items 🤩. I still need to see Night Swim.
Hi Ariel, it started raining the day after the video and hasn’t stopped since 😬 but apparently we are due a heat wave (thank goodness) sorry to hear it’s been gloomy where you are. HMV have now branched out into Canada, Japan and Belgium so it’s going from strength to strength 👍 maybe one day they will set up in America. Take care Ariel 👍😃👍
@@kermitsghost That’s awesome HMV is branching out. We need an HMV 🤗
Awesome video Alan 😀🍿🎸🎶 I heard amazing things about ‘The Holdovers’; I will be watching it at Xmas period 😊👍 ‘Dreams’ is my favourite Kurosawa film followed by ‘Ran’; both incredible films 🙌 I never seen ‘Aliens’; definitely need to get onto the 4K in due course; great to see that & ‘True Lies’ finally get the 4K treatment 🤩
Hi Sir Alan,
88 Films putting out some great releases, say what you want to say about the quality of films but they are value for money in my opinion & not overpriced unlike some of the other labels, "Gator" one of the wanted list, not a great cover for the "Aliens" 4K release but nevertheless a essential purchase & long awaited.
Plenty of Humphrey Bogart movies on releases, thanks for sharing Alan, great stuff as always.
Another great K Day Alan.... A couple of great classics ....kind hearts and coronets....Lavender hill mob ... av a great week mate 👍
Hi Les, it was an exceptionally good release week 👌 gotta love a British classic movie but my goodness The LavenderHill Mob was expensive 🤑 it’s not a cheap hobby is it mate 😆 enjoy the rest of your week mate, take care👍😃👍
Great Video Alan
Nice variety this week Alan. Bless that dude changing the shirt on the mannequin. Of course he’s great, he’s a rocker 😂 🤘
The Holdovers was fabulous. I know I saw Evolution years ago but it’s been a long time!
Hi Lisa, yeah, Frank knows I have a CZcams channel and he was very obliging 👌 I adored The Holdovers, definitely film of the year for me, take care Lisa xx
Great video KG, fair play it always looks lovely and clean in Brighton.
Bit of a wild release day so best I stay in doors 😅 I did grab The Beast in the Cellar so looking forward to that.
Hope you're well
Hi Craig, I should work for the tourist board 🤣 it would have been a lot cheaper to stay home that’s for sure mate 🤑 The Beast In The Cellar did sound like a fun British movie. Take care mate👍😃👍
Im on way to cex to sell a pile probably get pennies, and go in hmv myself 👍🏻 im normally a online shopper, but going Specsavers for eye retest, great video mate 👍🏻💿
Ahh yes, i recall your video, I hope you got a lot for your movies mate (plus your glasses) take care Stuart👍😃👍
Lovely day on the coast Alan. We've had nothing but rain today in Warwickshire. Great release week. 👏 some fantastic Indicator titles. Thanks 👍 mate.
Hi Roy, if it helps mate, it’s gonna rain here all week 😬 so you lot up North should get the sun 🤣 I have a few Indicator title to show next Monday. Cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
Giamatti’s film American Splendor is long overdue a blu too
Ooh I’ve not watched that in years, your absolutely spot on, it’s a film that a boutique label should pick up, it would be perfect for that 🧐 cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
Great video Alan, so much out today. Nice to see that Starwars section in forbidden planet.
I picked up Night swim and totally for about Evolution.
I did pick up Aliens from Amazon but the slip cover arrived ripped so will have to send it back. Great video and nice weather too on the south coast.😃👍
Hi Carl, I actually filmed that selection of Star Wars figures with you in mind mate (I know you like them 🧐) ohh sorry to hear about the ripped slipcover 😬 hope you get a unscathed one next time. It was a beautiful day on the south coast but it’s gonna rain all week 😬 cheers Carl, take care👍😃👍
Nice to see Evolution finally getting a UK Blu-ray ( although I do have the German Steelbook so happy with that ).
Aliens I did pick up ( but questioning whether I will prefer just the film on Blu-ray - does it work with a crisp picture ? - I will find out !
Also I did get ( yet to arrive ) Vertical Limit from 88 films. 👍
Always nice to see a little
In another Forbidden Planet. 👍.
Hi AJ, I see you have a video up or scheduled covering the Alien topic, I’m eager to find out myself…🧐 oddly enough I have the original release of Vertical Limit and I’m not really one for double dipping so, I’ll stick with that too, cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
we all love frank :)
He’s a top guy, very helpful and very knowledgeable and always happy to help, what more can you ask for, cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
i saw all those lovely indicator films and cried at all those region b notices. over the weekend i did find some indicator titles that were region free and they are on their way to me... hope you enjoy your pickups (loved the Holdovers) and have a great week!
Hi Erik, you may want to look away next Monday as the five films I ordered were all Indicator titles 😬 glad you found some region free titles mate 👌 The Holdovers was incredibly good, enjoy the rest of your week too Erik, take care mate👍😃👍
Great stuff alan. Lots of good releases this week. Great for us physical media collectors.
Can’t wait to grab the holdovers on 4K at the weekend. Plus quite a few others. Wew gonna be a pricey week. 7 titles I’m after altogether.
👍🏻😊
Hi Jimmy, it was a great release week, the five titles came so I’ll be showing those next Monday plus a couple from Australia, it’s not a cheap hobby is it 😆 take care mate👍😃👍
Lots of interesting titles out this week, I picked up The Holdovers, Shock Waves, The Three Musketeers Milady (the first movie was great, amazing action scenes and a fantastic cast so looking forward to watching the sequel) and Eureka’s Masters of Cinema, The Cat and the Canary (HMV don’t seem to stock Eureka titles). Those Ealing comedy 4K’s look nice, but I already have them on Blu Ray.
Hi mate, great pick ups, I will have to go back at some point to pick up The Three Musketeers Milady as I have the first, hopefully HMV will start getting Eureka titles soon 🤞 cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
Hi Alan. A gorgeous sunny day. Lots of great releases, particularly those Ealing ones and I’d be interested to see The Beast in the Cellar. I have the Bogart ones in indicator’s Columbia Noir 5 set. Loved The Holdovers. Weirdly I’ve never felt inclined to watch Evolution but there is (or was) a copy in my local thrift store so maybe I’ll pick it up
Hi Neil, it was a beautiful day in the south coast 👌 hopefully the start of things to come. I have the Columbia Noir set #3 but I prefer separate cases, so I ordered those Bogart films from Indicator for £9:99 each 😃 The Holdovers was incredibly good 👍 give it a go if you like Lake Placid, it’s that kinda humour. Take care mate👍😃👍
Enjoyed your video Alan, Remember watching Evolution on the big screen, very enjoyable film.
Hi Mark, that’s one I missed on the big screen, it’s a long overdue release but at least it’s here now, cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
I remember Evolution being quite a fun film.
It is Jared, there’s lots of humour throughout, like Lake Placid, worth a watch mate, take care👍😃👍
Great video and great films you got there
Thanks Danny, much appreciated mate, take care👍😃👍
Alot out today ! Nothing im picking up this week. Looks nice and sunny. It was raining in my part of the world this morning 😔
Hi Matt, oddly enough there nothing out for me next week, sometimes it’s like that I guess. It was a beautiful day but we have rain all week down here 😬 take care mate👍😃👍
Seems amazing it's a whole year since we all met in Brigton for Jamie Powell's birthday... what a collection of CZcamsrs and other great people were there that day!
There look like a lot of interesting movies there; I picked up *Inspector Wears Skirts 3* and *Inspector Wears Skirts 4* partly because they look fun , partly because elsewhere in the world there really hard to find and a lot because I like _Cythia Rothrock_ movie and, even though she was only in the first, obviously once I had that one I had to get them all 🤣. Oddly, sort of, 1,2 and 4 have an English dub but 3 doesn't... I think it's because 3 has never been released on physical before (certainly not in English speaking countries) so there was never a need for it and 88 Films couldn't afford to pay for a new one from scratch.
*Shock Waves* definitely looks like one for that 'silly' part of my collection, with *Surf Nazis Must Die* etc. Only a 12 so not too heavy on the zombie threat I guess.
I adore *Kind Hearts & Coronets* but will probably stick with my 70th Anniversay Blu-ray by the same distributor.
I haven't got *The Lavendar Hill Mob* though so that's reminded me I want it... though the _Vintage Classics_ Blu-ray is a quarter of the price which is a ridiculous gap!
I never picked up the *D'Artagnan* release so I'm intending to get the double pack at a fair price; I dare say you'd want them in separate cases 😉If I didn't have the German steelbook of *Evolution* I'd definitely be getting the 88 Films release.
Plenty of _Bogart_ for me to grab as time passes.
Great video as alwas, Alan... I wonder what your other 5 are... 😀👍
Hi Justin, there’s another big meet up happening in London in August, hope you can come to that mate, wow that year went by quickly 😮 yes, given the description of Shock Waves, it’s definitely a contender for your “silly section” and why not, life’s too short to worry about missing out on titles. Ooh yeah the price tag on The Lavender Hill Mob took me by surprise a little 🤑 I do have the first of the Three Musketeers films so I’ll have to pick up that sequel at some point 🤔….if you want to know what five titles I ordered in, check out the comments I’ve replied too as I have mentioned them in there 🫣 cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
@@kermitsghost I have every intention of being in London in August; dates are in the diary and, barring disaster, already have my 'pink pass' from my wife for the day out 😉
@@blujustin4175cool, look forward to seeing you again Justin 👍
Great video Alan
Thank you so much, I really do appreciate it, enjoy the rest of your week, take care👍😃👍
A couple of Bogart films to add to my collection. Is there not in the Lanes in Brighton a boutique movie shop that sells lots of rare blurays?
Hi Larry, I have those five Bogart films to show next week, your right there is a shoo at the end of Sydney Street and Trafalgar Street but last time I was in there the blu-Ray section was very limited and he concentrated more on rare DVD’s but it’s been a while since I went in, London Road market has a great stall with a vast selection of boutique blu-rays available though. Cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
I have all the vintage classics on blu ray and a couple of the 4k collectors editions. I’m debating whether I should buy The Lavender Hill Mob 4k as I already have it on blu ray 🤔
Hi mate, The Lavender Hill Mob comes with a few new extra features plus all the extras, like a poster and art cards but at £40 😮 it seems a bit steep to me, take care mate👍😃👍
some great releases evolution, veritcal limit and of course Aliens, do you think you will ever go 4k?
Hi James, I can honestly say without hesitation that I will never switch over to 4K I have OCD and can’t mix my formats so it would mean starting over and there’s no way that’s gonna happen at this stage 😁 cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
How weird... each reply you've written is showing as '2 replies', Alan... I really don't think you need to boost your comments! 🤣
Get ready for two more 🤣 I don’t know why it’s doing that……maybe I’m just that special 😆 (a glitch in the matrix Justin) 😉
@@kermitsghost Stopped now... someone's fixed the Matrix
Another terrific video Alan, I loved The Holdovers, the scene with Mary st the Christmas party just tears my soul, especially with loss around the holidays ( I myself just lost it during this scene) a terrific film. I would have picked up all those Bogart films on indicator ( I have them on dvd) but 12 bucks is a terrific price. Be well my friend and stay well
Hi Kenny, yeah that scene was cutting wasn’t it, the whole film was a blessing from start to finish, best film of the year for me. I ordered all those Bogart films and they will feature in next weeks video, cheers mate, take care👍😃👍
Wow, that’s a lot of Humphrey Bogart movies this week. 👍🏻
Oddly enough Mike, they are the films I ordered in and will feature in next weeks video, I’m making my way through them all, take care Mike👍😃👍
Well, that complete your Humphrey Bogart collection or do you still have more to go?
@@movieedge7370still plenty to track down Mike but that’s the fun of collecting 👍
Beautiful day out there in Brighton ❤
It was Mike but it’s forecast rain for the rest of the week 😬 roll on the summer sun 🌞 take care mate👍😃👍
@@kermitsghost we had weeks like that already one day good the rest of the week rainy but you know, I love the sound of a good thunderstorm ⛈️
