Today I made a huge purchase - my first house. It wasn't easy but I am very proud of myself. There are so many things to do left but I'll handle it. I just want to figure out some details about a home warranty. I tried to contact Choice Home Warranty customer service https://choice-home-warranty.pissedconsumer.com/customer-service.html but couldn't reach them. Is it actually worth it? Share your thoughts.

Just pre-ordered this:
I'd been eyeing up the set of Memories of Murder and Barking Dogs Never Bite for a while, but this is much better value even at base price. I've seen all the other movies, but the only one I actually own is Parasite, and that's digital.

Beautiful set. There's also a hidden schematic in the case as an Easter Egg.

Couldn't resist this on Amazon for £22.99! Especially since single film Criterion's will sometimes set you back £25.

It came and so far it's pretty damn good, though I hate TV boxsets that don't move automatically between episodes. It's always back to the main menu with this one.

It's also Sod's Law that the one time Amazon delivers early (package waiting before I even woke up this morning) it has to go straight back. Bet on Tuesday I'll be sitting around twiddling my thumbs all day (but I guess what else was I going to do these days?). Normally I'd just replace the case, except I only have one blu-ray case spare and it's not got the centre clips for the extra disc holders. I normally just suck it up with cases broken in transit but I dropped £35 on this set.

What a nuisance, my boxset of Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex arrived from Amazon damaged so much the case won't even stay shut properly. Only two little breaks but in just the right places...got to send it back now and of course they suddenly can't next day delivery a replacement.

A few recent collector's edition hauls put together, two lots of Arrow and my first Criterion Collection releases.

So this set was completely misadvertised and doesn't contain the theatrical or the redux cuts.

There's none I've watched twice yet so it's difficult to say for sure, but the short list would be:
Strangers on a Train Rear Window North by Northwest Psycho

Just got the Alfred Hitchcock Masterpiece Collection Blu-Ray for £24.99. I have most of the movies on DVD already but I plan to sell those on to make some of that back. There are a couple of movies I didn't have and a hardback collector's book in the set. |

Having never seen the theatrical I thought the redux was fine, probably my favourite Coppola film. Final only came out last year. It's supposed to be Coppola's preferred version and has a length between that of the other two.
It's also had restoration done on it to remaster for 4K which is also used as a basis for the blu-ray 1080p version.

the redux cut is so much worse than the theatrical, nothing they added is really of value to the movie. Never seen "final"

Just treated myself to the blu-ray of Apocalypse Now: The Final Cut, which also includes the original theatrical and Redux cuts. I have a tatty DVD copy of the Redux already that I didn't pay much for. I'll be looking forward to seeing how the Final Cut compares.
