I so badly want to look up any and every RC movie I can find on Best Buy and charge it to my card. But this past Christmas lol, I'm already paying off a least a cool grand already.
...It'd be worth it still lol.
I'd be running there now going on a shopping spree...if I had the money. I've had to make $8 stretch for almost a month and a half now.
...I'm really hoping I get released to go back to work for this Monday.
Please, no one take offense if I do, and you guys rarely see me for a whole week. It's going to be tough going from sitting around doing nothing to going back to a full 8 hour work days again.Last edited by Eri8321317; 28 April 2010, 02:03 PM.

From my experience the easiest way to get the DVDs is to look on the Amazon page, they have quite a lot of movies. And sometimes it is worthwhile to look after 1 or 2 weeks again (I don't know why, but I got DVDs there, They don't had 2 weeks ago). If you don't get it on Amazon USA try GB or any other region, you can have access to. The other question is your DVD player. If you're living in Louisiana you should have R1. Look in your manual from your player whether you can change the region at any time. If you don't own a region free player, you should think to buy one, when you have more money. Anyway they're not very expensive, at least in Germany, and as far as I know electronic articles are less expenxive in America than in Europe.
Like you I'm still on my way to get everything I can put my hands on, it's like hunting, at the end of the chase you hold your prize in your hands, and enjoy the viewing!

@Artemis: Is something that says "All" the same as "Free"? If so, then it appears that my Portable DVD player will play any DVDs with the Region Labels "All" and "Region 1" It seems the DVD/Surround Sound System in my room will only play "Region 1" If that is the case, then maybe sometime down the road, I will invest in a "Free" Region DVD player (just place it on top of the one I have now lol). I might need to check sometime soon to see if the two movies I have of his (Face & The Full Monty) play on my DVD player in my room. I had a couple of DVDs that were released for Gorillaz, but one I cannot get it to go to any chapters or features, and the other. The other one is in need of a replacement. I think I either wore it out too much, or it's a tad old. Odd though, how one of their Live DVDs work and the other doesn't.
And I have been looking on Amazon and Best Buy alike. Best Buy has a few movies of his that I haven't seen listed on Amazon, and vice versa. For example, I've only been able to find "Hamish Macbeth" 1-3 season set on Amazon, and not on Best Buy. I was just asking about 'Go Now' cause I've only been able to find results of a VHS, and not a DVD version. I was hoping maybe someone has seen one somewhere heh. I do still have my VCR, but that is almost past its prime too. Actually, further on down the road, I'll either have to buy one of those systems, that can convert VHS to DVDs, or go to my dad's and try to figure out how to work his (I think he said he had one). Be useful for all those home videos we still have.
I'm one of those people, who likes to hold onto as many memories or things of the such.
And I know exactly what you mean with your last statement heh. I will admit, I will get hooked on certain things, and almost become obsessed, in a sense. Like, I can't stop. I'll try and get almost everything I can of my current obsession. I've been that way my whole life. A huge goal would be to meet him one day. I've only been lucky enough to meet a few anime voice actors/actresses, won my folks their chance to meet Aerosmith (even though I couldn't), and was almost close to meeting Dane Cook (got to meet two fellow comedians instead). So, my luck in actually meeting celebs have been...50/50 lol. I'd be an honor to meet Mr. Carlyle one day. Heck, to just get a picture with him, or a picture I don't care. But because of my love for Damon Albarn (Blur/Gorillaz, etc), is how I got to buying "Face" and discovering my love for Robert.
Which is funny. Because I distinctly remember seeing the Oasis music video Robert was featured in. I saw it early in the morning, before we were set off on a Florida family trip. (I used to get overly excited for trips, and could never sleep the night before. So I'd stay up watching music videos on VH1). And, I remember I meant to find out who Robert was (I didn't know who he was at the time), but when I went on the trip, I forgot in the midst of enjoying the vacation. I had to have been like, 14 at the time too.
Oh well. I'm probably rambling. You guys rather me talk about Rush. This is, his thunk thread, after all heh.

But Robert is like wine-gets better with age. Even though, we all can't lie. He was pretty smoking fine back in his 20s-30s too.

Well, seems like a good number of his movies are in Region 1, which means they'll play just fine. I think maybe 3 titles I couldn't find in Region 1 at all, and another it seems the title is either very hard to find in Region 1 or it's not available in this Region at this time (which sucks, really wanted to see that particular movie). And I had no luck finding "Go Now" as a DVD whatsoever.

Originally posted by rimorob View PostOkay, I've now finished...
Gunpowder, Treason and Plot:
Spoiler:yeek! James was temperamental panicky thing, wasn't he? But then there were moments where we got to see compassion, and a build up of actually caring about his family. I feel that they portrayed him meaner than history has recorded. They messed around quite a bit with history really. Oh well, good drama.Spoiler:limp and the hand.
Human Trafficking:
Spoiler:Okay, I know Sergei is a horrible person, but damn is he sexy and charismatic. I'm bummed that he got shot, I wanted to see some conversations after he got caught. I thought it was a really good miniseries, and I was shocked at how easy it is to enslave people here in the US.Spoiler:very upset when Sergei died.
Once Upon a Time in the Midlands:
Spoiler:RC looked incredibly sexy, and I really liked the first half; but Jimmy was a pretty unlikeable character by the end. Nice hair, though.
I'm continuing to work my way through the RC list, I'm saving Hamish and Summer for last.
Originally posted by Daro View PostYes, I agree. One pairing I'm not fond of is Rush/clothing. They're together in like, every episode! Something should be done about this at some point. I'm just saying.

Originally posted by BFH_Bushy_Tush View PostYeah. That's one of the arguments the money pinchers use to cancel shows. They're not making money because people are illegally copying and downloading it.

You can see either from subscriptions or go to SGU Characters & Relationships folder. Then look for this thread, the middle column is for Replies/Views. Click on Replies: [some number]. Right now you have 496 posts.
Tell me if you got it or do I need to cap it.

Spoiler:It's three images of Rush in the chair.
What about Rush/clothing in Human, though?
Slowly working through set up kino visions to write the shower scene. It's coming ...
