UK Most Haunted Complete Series 1 5 disc set - Includes all 16 episodes, the Most Haunted Unseen footage for each episode, and the previously released "Best Season 1 Disc" featuring two "Best of" Compilations and the first Hour long live special from Levins Hall, and interviews with Yvette "Scary Pants" Fielding and Derek "Spiritual Medium" Acorah. That's over 12 hours of all new "Most Haunted" material!

Now, what's happened to their second half of Series 3? :roll: (Most Haunted Live Vol 2 is due out just after Xmas).

I also received my Australian 2 disc Shrek 2. Yes, its widescreen all the way baby. Yes, it has the bonus disc. Yes the slipcover not only speaks (and lights up) but it opens like a book. LIKE A FREAKIN' POP-UP BOOK!

Beat that Disney! :D
Most of my Blu-ray collection some of my UK discs aren't on their database

Well as you know. Doris is now 2nd on my list of favorite movie stars and Hilary is now #1/

The Girl Is Like So Hot dudes.

Here is a pic of Hilary that is my new desktop image.

And a few days ago I took at trip to www.amazon.com and bought 3 of her cds and the 2003 Cheaper BY The Dozen on DVD. I can't believe I am a Hilary Duff fanatic. I would think I would only ever feel this way about Doris.[/img]

Himself - my mother kept promising it for my birthday so I didnt buy it. She finally came through.

By the way got a nice bonus today. I bought a real high end Sony DVD player(part of a $8,000 purchase on the weekend) 55" Sony Rear Projection LCD, HDTV Cable Box, Sony DVD Player, Home Theatre Reference Quality Power Supply and of course all the expensive Monster Cables and included in the box was

Spider Man 2 which I didnt think was out already.

I think I'll wait around for Spider-Man 2.5, rather than get Spider-Man 2. Or maybe I'll do what I did with the first, and wait for a good used copy to be available for $9.99.

Just myself - I told you where it was - inside the high end DVD player I bought on Sunday. Didnt open the box until last night. I would have to spend another $ 400 to get another one though. Makes sense thought because the salesman said both the TV and DVD player were just received on the prior Tuesday. Brand new top of the line technology. Kewl huh.

Wow, so they just put it in the box with the DVD player? Was it really a bonus, like "Thanks for buying this really expensive stuff! To show our appreciation, here's a new DVD in advance!" or just a shipping mistake that you're keeping and not telling them?

I remember when we bought our very first DVD player, they sent us Planet of the Apes 2001 2-Disc for free.

I envy you. If I had the chance today, I would have picked them both up (but Twice Upon's not for me).

Escapay - I would imagine it is more of a shipping thing. Perhaps the DVD player made it to market faster than they thought it would.

Secret Disney Man - wasnt really on my buying list, but it is something I will watch since my wife bought #1 and it was decent. Come on you can wait until the 30th. By the way I am so busy packing, I had to turn down extra work on Fantastic Four last week. Although, come to think of it every time I have been offered extra work in the last 15 years I have turned it down(X-Files, the Commish, Highlander(all TV). This was only the second movie ever - the first - Meet the Stupids. Every extra part ever offered to me has been as an office worker - and they keep offering me less than what I actually make working in an office. I cant see the logic. To date my only on camera experience was accidently walking on to the set of End of Days. Chris Columbus(director) swore at me. I think I am rambling now.

No I am not an actor, I am an office worker(an accountant). I keep getting offered extra jobs because most extras tend to be more the type you would expect for cops or construction workers and dont look like office workers. I know some of these "cop types". Everytime the extra agency is looking for an office worker one of them calls me up. But since I can earn more as an accountant I have always refused.
