| | Posted: | | | | Is this the movies you order, or do other people really send you all of theses movies? If they do, all I have to say is wow. You have a huge collection as well. |

| | Posted: | | | | No these all are movies and TV Shows that people give me. I could never afford all of these. If I could... I would have upgraded to a blue ray system... something I just can't afford to do. But yeah... every single title I mention in this thread are strictly gifts only. That I can swear to. | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | OMG! I woke up to a wonderful surprise! I have yet another DVD Care Package coming! And just let me stress the point... This is not coming from the same person that sending me the above movies. This is another kind soul of a friend of mine. This person sent me a message late last night saying.... "Since you don't have something to watch from 2011, I'm going to send you a direct-to-DVD film that came out this year. That way you'll be sure to have something for your marathon when you finally get to this year."And I find out this person is sending me... All-Star Superman Region 1 Released: 2/22/2011 Widescreen And if that isn't enough... they said... "However, one DVD will not fill up the box, so it will contain a few other things ... likely 24 of them, if it works out the way I think it will. I think I may leave you in suspense this time, since it won't take long for the box to get there if I get it sent out tomorrow" So no idea what the other titles will be... but like I told this person... What is a little torture between friends?  And here I was considering slowing down a bit on the current marathon so I was sure to have one once I get to 2011... guess I don't have to now! | | | | Pete |

| | Posted: | | | | And it seems the Games are On!...
she messaged me a bunch of clues saying...
So there's a few hints to tantalize you. I'm sure you'll work some of them out, perhaps with help from the folks here or over at the other forum. If you want to guess any of them I'll let you know if you're right or wrong.
Sets:
- 2-movie releases is likely musical in parts and involves a talented palomino
OK... Talented palomino and musical in parts... Roger maybe you can confirm... I am thinking it has something to do with Roy Rogers and Trigger. Was Trigger a Palomino... and did Roy Rogers sing?
- 2-movie release is low-budget horror from the 70's directed by someone named Andy Milligan
- the 4-movie set stars an adorable little dog
I already sent her a guess of a 4 movie set of Benji movies
- 50 set comes in a cardboard box and I've heard of the stars but not the movies (people like Yul Brynner, Lloyd Bridges, Ann Sheridan, Raymond Burr, etc.)
- 6-DVD box involves 6 serials with 72 episodes between them. 1 of which stars Gene Autry
Single Movie Releases:
- there is another low-budget horror as well, but it's from 2008 and is based on a comic book series
- speaking of comic books, another single-movie is based on an indie comic and came out last year. you have two other films from the director already in your collection
- one is in Spanish & won 3 Oscars
- there are 2 disaster films, 1 low budget & 1 that I think actually made it to theatres*. That one involves a bomb as the solution to the disaster.
- one is a monster movie from 2007 (or at least that's what I'd call it)
- one is a western from the year I was born & won 2 Oscars
- one is from the same writer as The Squid and the Whale
- one involves a hitman and his protegee
- one is an anime based on a video game
- one is sci-fi and stars the former governor of Minnesota
- one involves a plot to kill someone to make $$ on their posterity
- one is set during the Mexican-American War
- one is based on a novel by Ethan Hawke
- one is a rom-com made from a play and stars the original cast
- one is a lesson to never touch dirty money
2 Ep TV Show Release
- from a show on TLC, and you wouldn't want those people in your house
So what you say guys.. can you offer up any help? | | | | Pete |
