Re: DVDs...Whatcha' bought lately?
I received a pair of Blu-rays from a friend as a thank you gift; one, a double feature disc that contains the comedies Grumpy Old Men & Grumpier Old Men; and two, the Blu-ray of the fantasy/comedy Just Visiting.

Re: DVDs...Whatcha' bought lately?
The really liked "Just Visiting" but I liked the original French made film a lot more.
I found a VHS tape of "Grumpy Old Men" in a stack of tapes just recently. I'll see if I can find it again and watch it tonight.
Its a good movie in an odd way. Now that I'm approaching Grumpy Old Man status I may pick up some pointers on how not to act.

I grabbed Kingsman: The Secret Service at Walmart for $7.50. This way I can delete it from my DVR.

Re: DVDs...Whatcha' bought lately?
GRRRR!!! Be sure and check those dates on DVDs that you order. I went to put in Evil Dead this weekend and I had accidentally bought the 2013 remake which had non of the coolness factor of the 1983 original. I was going on the cover picture of the DVD box and quickly added it to the cart.

Re: DVDs...Whatcha' bought lately?
There's a difference between the titles of the movies that can be a bit confusing to the prospective buyer; the 1983 movie is called The Evil Dead, whereas the 2013 version is simply Evil Dead.scubasteve wrote:GRRRR!!!

Re: DVDs...Whatcha' bought lately?
I see that now. I missed the changes in cover, the cast listing and the year so doubtful I would have ever caught that.the 1983 movie is called The Evil Dead
Even when it started playing I thought "wow they must have done a digital redo and added parts because I don't remember this scene." I was a good 15 minutes in before I ever caught on.
I'll get the original with next months movie allowance.

Re: DVDs...Whatcha' bought lately?
The remake isn't bad.
Just no where near as fun as the original.
