Oh, it's definitely entertaining. Your new Momitsu player should really do the transfer justice!

Here's my take on it:

I just saw this listed on Amazon Uk this morning and then watched the trailer. It looks really good. I was thinking about importing it but wasn't sure if it was worth it.

Mine is dispatching soon, so we'll see. I was blown away by its sheer style!

Well, I think that review at DVDTherapy gives a pretty good description of the movie itself, and the blu-ray release.

I gave in and included it with my order for Highlander: Immortal Edition Steelbook; Franklyn is only £10.42 after VAT removal, about $17.25.

haha, good man!

I need something to hold me over until Highlander.


I also ended up ordering the Animatrix, Martyrs, and Rules of Attraction. Those have shipped.

Yes, it's got V and 1984 overtones with surreal imagery. I'm digging Eva Green's look. She always seemed to have that wild look, now she gets to go crazy, sort of.

It looks solid, and the review from dvdtherapy says it's pretty alright.


I'm stoked!
