A friendly reminder to check your pre-owned Blu-ray as soon as you bring it home for a telltale nicotine colouring.
Picked up a 2010 copy of Iron Man from Cex and although it got to the menu, the player is struggling.
Disc rot is real, but I've only come across it a handful of times...
So far! 🤞🏻😞

Masters of the mockumentary! Several recent additions to join Waiting for Guffman in my collection.
This is Spinal Tap (1884) Finally on Criterion Blu-ray!
Best in Show (2000)
A Mighty Wind (2003)
Imports, and the Criterion is of course region A locked.

Inspired by a @scottniswander.bsky.social video on the correct watch order of the live action Scooby Doo movies I had to try myself.
Believe it or not SD2 didn't get a UK release on Blu-ray 😮
But this US collection is region free, albeit with very basic cover art.

Something 'sploded in the post!

It *was* the reissue of Mystery Science Theater 3000 Volume XVII
At least I can say I own Final Sacrifice now. Sorta 🥴

It only took Amazon (boo, hiss) 2 months to deliver but it finally arrived. A 3 movie DVD box set of The Beastmasters. Already have the first on blu, so this was for the sequels.
Beastmaster 2: Through the Portal of Time (1991)
Beastmaster III: The Eye of Braxus (1996)
Boy. This reeks of bootleg!

So I have seen it now. Very nice movie, but I doubt the legitimacy of this DVD. 😮
PQ's a bit murky and only English audio track.
The special features listed on the back are a complete fabrication! All there is is a trailer at the end, w/o audio.
Disc has a PG rating, not G.
So buyer beware! 😜

Here's a movie I remember seeing the box for at my Blockbuster video for years in the 90s, but never got round to seeing!
The Boy Who Could Fly (1986)
Time to remedy that. Wish it had the one-sheet art though!
No Blu-ray, I believe, so this is an Aus DVD, but region free.

As an original MOTU fan, I found both series a real treat.
Masters of the Universe Revelation (2021) + Revolution (2024)
Kevin Smith did us proud and Mark Hamill was perfect to join the pantheon of Skeletor actors.
