WOW!

We’ve spoke about millions of things in PMs/ texting that I’ve also spoke about publicly… and a lot of things we haven’t spoke of publicly that I’m more than willing to share with the rest…. :naughty:

Urgh, that sounds weird. No we ain’t sleeping together
Don't you dare reveal my secret identity to the world. If people find out I'm Banksy I'll be ruined!

Fair point though... my bad. Was trying to be funny and didn't think. Oh well, at least everyone knows what a backstabbing little Northern rat I am now :(
 
Nearly every thread here someone questions the price of an item
Those are all major studio releases, or large companies, that have massive budgets and long-term bulk contracts with production lines, that shouldn't charge that much, but even their gradual price hikes are the result of politics we're not allowed to discuss here. Remember that the end customer always ends up footing the bill for everything the 'liberal' government does, wasting your tax dollars.

Don't listen to them! LiT would only sell to like 10 people here and no one else would touch it, don't be fooled by their honeyed words. :p
You scoundrel.
LIT sold like hot cakes when it first went on sale. I'd totally be down for a premium edition!

You don't ever forget how sensational LIT is. When you watch it again after a few years, it feels like coming home.
 
I don't think it's fair to criticize Astro's choice over personal preferences. I mean, sure everyone's would love to see something else release, as I don't think Annihilation is everyone's favourite movie, but you gotta look it as something new, something different. I know there's a steelbook already but, from what I'm told, it's kind of a Holy Grail.
I'm so fed up with superheroes or Batman trilogies to be honest.
 
A "proper" film?
Anything other than LiT I guess? :rofl: If it wasn't clear I was joking, while I really do dislike LiT it's perfect fodder for collectors and a single person's opinion of a film isn't worth a great deal objectively.

At least in the short term I think I'm pretty much onboard for any project from Astro Creations, mainly because I want to support someone who's choosing to be involved directly with their customers, that feels like something worth supporting so even if they pick a film I don't especially care for, there's clearly careful thought being put into the selection and really I just want to see them do well; a positive story is nice once in a while.

Let's not let our passion for film become something negative, this should be fun, shouldn't it?
