Finish preview 3 films of the man with no name trilogy, PQ is ok, considered the film age, it is remarkable a 3.5 to 4 star in overall. AQ is some how weak and inconsistent balance, high pitch poor transfer. 2.5 star for the DTS-HD AQ. It deserved 3 star in it original monaural track, the DTS-HD track just too bad in transfer

QUOTE(johnsontys @ May 5 2011, 07:19 PM) Reply by Amazon Standard reply, at least Amazon refund, this is the part I like, B&N event worst, they just ignore your complain!» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I notice Amazon will auto convert your standard delivery to i-parcel if the package is "Big", "Heavy", "A lot of items". So if you don't want to wait, since you order so much, maybe can check out on priority shipping (courier services), sometimes it only extra USD $10 to $15 if you have a lot of items purchase together. If you not willing to wait, then the only choice is pray Amazon not auto updates for you to i-parcel. No point complain and issue the i-parcel to Amazon, as I did before, end up same they still use back i-parcel. I complain is just for getting back at least the shipping cost refund. That all.

Finish watching El Topo, from the same director before he shot The Holy Mountain.
OK la, this one not that madness, and more story.... but it still category in not "normal" film. ----------------------- From review at blu-ray.com, if you own the BD, they is a commentary by Director Alejandro Jodorowsky discusses his inability to make a "normal" film. "Filmmaker has to do what he feels, no matter what. Even if people leave the theater...I don't care, I've done what I've wanted to do. Time will tell if what I did has value or not." WOW! I salute him!  This post has been edited by Andrewtst: May 6 2011, 10:20 AM |

QUOTE(sKyWiR3pT3lTd @ May 6 2011, 12:26 PM) As i said, Amazon or who ever can push off, there no need of explanation from you on the pricing..im not interested at all..all cut throat pricing. Japan selling is damn expensive one, you see a limited 3 BD animation can cost you RM 1.2k I just wanted to share the cool looking stuff. But i definitely feel that RM200 above is not the price tag for it , unless its utterly limited stock. Btw..I found it from eBay ; from a Top Rated Seller.  Example, S.A.C. 2nd GIG Blu-ray Disc BOX 2 http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0026Q8ELI ** eBay price sometimes can superb cheap, some times crazy expensive, but they is a risk getting from eBay..

QUOTE(valho @ May 6 2011, 02:41 PM) That's not Amazon pricing, that's the actual retail pricing of a Japanese BD, which range from 5k to more than 10k yen depending on what you are getting (this pricing is from the JP concert and anime I bought, not sure about movies pricing). Ya, a lot of KKK (in RM) in price of Japan BD, lucky I not fancy in Anime. I only love Studio Ghibli, each around RM 200+ that is already killing me softly!Amazon JP have the lowest pricing for BD that I have seen so I am really interested where you manage to find cheaper price, since I buy BD from Japan once in a while. My friend bought this 6 BD set, the retail price is 52,500 yen, he got it from Amazon JP, iinm less than 40k yen. The quality of the packaging material is awesome.

QUOTE(valho @ May 6 2011, 02:58 PM) Same here, I bought some of the BD from Studio Ghibli, but not anime boxset since they usually don't come with subtitle except for a few series. Good thing Studio Ghibli BD always have subtitles Ya, lucky all Studio Ghibli came with English subtitle. The other JP BD I buy are concerts, usually cost RM300++ for the limited edition first press, but for a 2 BD 6 hours concerts its worth it for me as I am particular on Disney release, I hate they change the color tones. |
