    Just Ghost World for me.

    I can do without AbFab, Jack and the Beanstalk, and some of those other titles.

    Although Maze may be a bit interesting.
    ...can't remember that actresses name. I'm not even sure if I'm thinking of the same movie.

    Ghost World and maybe Used Cars are on my list.

    The actress in Maze is Laura Linney by the way. Rob Morrow directed and starred with her. If that's the film your thinking of.

    Nobody's mentioned "Say Anything" yet!!! It's got some great extras for an 80's flick including semi-rare John Cusack commentary! Should sell for about $15 as well! Cha-ching, I'm there!

    I can't believe some of you guys are actually supporting the pan and scan releases of Ab Fab and Blue Planet. (see my post earlier last week for more info)

    Nothing this week In fact, I don't think I'm making many purchases in February. Possibly DON'T SAY A WORD. Watched GHOST WORLD last night--thought it was kind of overrated...Oh well...

    I can't wait to watch this one. I really loved the comic it's based on.

    Boo to pan and scan Ab Fab.

    I'll be picking up the Mad Max SE this week, but that's it. The only new release I'll be getting this month is Jay & Silent Bob (which isn't until the end of the month). I always manage to find some old titles to pick up in the meantime, though.

    Ugh. I think this is a lousy week for new releases.

    My only new purchase this week is HALLELUJAH, I'M A BUM, a fun early '30s musical with Al Jolson and Harry Langdon.

    HA! oops. I had one of those brain fart moments.
    I had a whole conversation going on in my head...

    I meant to say "that's it?" in response to the full list of DVD's.
    I'm not interested in any of them.

    I'm a big fan of the comic. So I'm a little worried that the movie will butcher it, and I never saw it. I should give it a chance.

    It wasn't until I saw the box art in the Best Buy newspaper ad that I thought AbFab was some sort of exercise video. :p

    Still just getting Ghost World tomorrow (I thought it was a bit overrated as well, but it is still worth owning, IMO).
