Around the world in 80 days was a project Brosnon did when he really couldn't get too much work in Hollywood. It was certainly before Bond and after Remington Steele. In a biography of Brosnan it quotes him as saying that when he made Around the World in 80 days his kids asked "dad, what are you doing making these programmes?" and he realized that he should be getting better work. Thankfully he did! Best thing about it was having Eric Idle in it.
That's what I think too, John. That DVD has survived all these years sealed, and sealed it shall remain. If I want to watch it, there's a newer version that's pretty cheap, so I could just pick that up.
A shop chain we have here in the UK that i know you would love (though sure you have a similar variation) is CEX which specialises in second hand games, movies and music (as well as phones and consoles)... Over the years have grabbed some real bargains! :)
Yeah, we have some places like that around here too, but a shocking amount of them have gone out of business over the last few years. The ones that are left are wildly inconsistent with their prices, but I still check them out from time to time. Was just in one this past Saturday looking for "From the Earth to the Moon," but they didn't have it, so I left empty-handed.
Good job. I'm really enjoying these videos, keep up the good work (makes me want to do my own). Around the World in 80 Days? I remember that mini-series. Well done too. My 2 cents: open it, play it, enjoy it. I believe in "working collections." Oh, and burn that snap case. I hate 'em. I got some empty DVD cases for my snap cases, put the discs in those and cut up the snaps for outside covers and indexes on the inside.
I have all of Six Million Dollar Man on DVD and a lot of Incredible Hulk also (missing season 4 and 5), but I'd need to revisit both shows to get familiar enough with them that I could talk about them without embarrassing myself. Maybe I could do a Seventies TV show video or something. I'll start thinking about that one. Thanks for the idea!
Hey heath do you like classic nickelodeon? Ren and stimpy rugrats rocko stuff like that. If you have a few dvds would you mind showing us some of those? Thanks!
I have all of Ren and Stimpy, but I don't have any of that other stuff. No Rugrats, no Doug, and no Rocko. I'd like to get them at some point. What I really want is to get "Are You Afraid of the Dark" on DVD. Maybe as I pick some of those shows up, I can discuss them on the channel. I only just got into Spongebob a couple of months ago. Crazy, I know!
I thought it wasn't for me. I was in college and starting a career when Spongebob first came out and I thought I was too "mature" for it in the late nineties and early 2000s. When I finally gave it a shot, I loved it.
Ahh i see. I reccomend the shout factory releases. My top 3: hey arnold, rockos modern life and the wild thornberrys. All of these have complete series dvds.
it has to do with a very literal read of Old Testament Bible verses about witchcraft. Some extreme sects of Christianity equate those verses about actual necromancy (aka, communion with the dead) to the very fantastical, commercial 20th century invention of Harry Potter. Meanwhile, C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien filled their books with magic, wizards, and witches as well, but they get a pass because those authors were vocal Christians.
Cereal At Midnight my sister quoted those same verses because I went to see Lotr in the theatre. I still went, because that “christian” point of view is definitely not mine.

Any chance of you reviewing THE SIX MILLION DOLLAR MAN and THE INCREDIBLE HULK tv shows from the 70's?
I have all of Six Million Dollar Man on DVD and a lot of Incredible Hulk also (missing season 4 and 5), but I'd need to revisit both shows to get familiar enough with them that I could talk about them without embarrassing myself.

@@CerealAtMidnight I would love to hear your thoughts on the hulk tv series. I have the whole series on DVD-cant afford the blu ray though.
My mom has Dickie Roberts on DVD
Dude my parents got on the turmoil in the toybox kick!
My condolences!
Thrift stores are the best places to get movies and tv shows.

Jeez it only took you 19 years?

There have been lots of instances when I tried something, but the time wasn't right. Then later, I try it again and it all clicks. That's Spongebob.

Oh God never knew a hatry potter propaganda peice existed!
Haha, coming from a christian background I remember those anti-Harry Potter propaganda. Still don’t get why I shouldn’t watch Harry Potter
