AMAZING UPDATE DONNY👊🔥

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

Thanks, buddy!

[@GeekLegionofDoom]

Im gonna have to get that Arrow video store box set. I love Arena, Rocky in Space , in fact all the movies in that set are fun. Dungeonmaster was called Ragewar in the UK

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

"Rocky in Space" - now that's a great way to describe Arena. Looking forward to (re)watch those Empire movies. Thanks, Leo!

@@CinemaniacSeventy7 I'm hoping I've got the set from someone for my birthday next week

Awesome Haul as usual Donny, always fun seeing what you pick up. I had a huge smile on my face while you showed off what I got you in the trade, thanks so much for the extra shout out, and cheers to future trades together. That Hard Target edition does look sweet and the artwork is fantastically simple and cool. Cult Epics has been giving a lot of love to classic Dutch cinema lately, gonna pickup a couple down the road myself one day. Still have to dip into my copy of the In the Line of Duty set actually, and I wholeheartedly agree that it's a fantastic release. Magnificent Warriors is still on my to get list, still undecided on whether to get the Eureka edition or the 88 Films US edition. Loved the Original Lady Indiana Jones tagline you added there, nice touch. I love the current four Indiana Jones films, (yes even The Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls), but I'm hesitant to see the Dial of Destiny as Spielberg's not at the helm, maybe I'll wait until the Blu Ray or 4K comes out. That Arrow set does bring back a lot of Nostalgia of the VHS store days, they were the good old days for sure. Some of my many memories are looking at all the VHS on display. Showgirls on 4K, that's wild. I remember in High School the channel VH1 always aired it, and many of the scenes were blurry as there was so much nudity and/or see through clothing going on. Could never get into the film entirely to be honest, but it does deserve its cult status. Lamberto Bava is a pretty good filmmaker I think, his stuff is a little bloodier than I would like, but I'd be interested in seeing A Blade in the Dark for sure. His father Mario Bava is in my top 10 filmmakers list. Take care my friend, hope you're well, and speak to you soon.

Thanks again for doing the trade, Steve! It's much appreciated! Yeah, Cult Epics is great. It's originally a Dutch company that started in Amsterdam in 1991 and moved to the US seven years later. Apparenly, America has more respect and admiration for Dutch cinema than Holland, because the Dutch films they have put out had a lousy release on DVD or has never been released at all. You love Kingdom of the Crystal Skull? I think you're the only one. I thought the opening sequence of Dial of Destiny was really good with an effectively de-aged Harrison Ford, but after that the movie went downhill. Yeah, that Arrow boxset is 100% pure nostalgia. I can't even imagine watching a movie full of blurry images. Anyway, thanks for watching and commenting, my friend. I still need to check out your videos, but I will do that soon. So much to watch, so little time... Take care!

خیلی خوب بود ممنون

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

Thank your for watching!

[@OldmovieMike]

Excellent pickups for July!! that "showgirls" box set is indeed Hot Damn!! I recently in the last 6 months picked up the regular Bluray edition of "showgirls" but it's very tempting!! a lot of great titles!! I may have to get that "Fly" collection, I've known about it, but I've been wanting to see Croenberg's The Fly again, and get those sequels to the orginal! take care Donnie!!

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

Thanks, Mike! I have the regular blu of Showgirls for some years, but that 4K set from VS is certainly worth the upgrade. Take care, my friend!

[@radovanradosavljevic6866]

Hello sir, When are you gonna update your Spaghetti western collection, I can’t wait to see that one 😂 Thank you so much. ❤

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

Don't know when I'm going to do the new spaghetti western collection video, but it will be soon.

[@radovanradosavljevic6866]

@@CinemaniacSeventy7 I can’t wait, I have my own spaghetti blu ray western collection Around 100 titles something like that. All the best.

[@ForgottenHorrorchannel]

Hey Donny how are you my friend? Love your haul another mixed bag love that fly box set and that Arrow time machine looks,cool some good films there too..Arena wow loved that one its a fighting competition with aliens/monsters and this kid becomes the 1st human fighter for a long time to enter great film showgirls well I'm sure you need more showgirls in your life lol to hell with censorship buddy hope you are well take care gilly and Mia send their love 👍👍🤘

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

Hey Dave! I'm doing fine, brother. I hope you and your ladies are safe and well. Arena is the kind of movie I should've watched when I saw a kid during the video store days. Oh well... better late than never, right? Haha, "to hell with censorship" Hell yeah, man! 🤘🤘 Take care, my friend!

[@schlock159]

Great haul as usual Donny. I didn't think Dial Of Destiny was the worst thing ever. In fact, i feel like it is nowhere near as terrible as Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull. But i agree it is a movie with many issues and it's certainly NOT the original trilogy. I will probably be pre-ordering Election 1 & 2 this month. I would love to get that Showgirls as well ;). Cheers.

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

Thanks, buddy! The opening sequence of Dial of Destiny was superior to Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in its entirety, but the rest sucks! Take care!

[@JenniferJennyJen78]

The scene on the steps of du Sacre Coeur became very lol stupid because it goes on for far too long. Great haul as always. Groetjes van Jen

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

I agree, Jen. I was rolling my eyes when Wick fell all the way down those steps... Thanks en groetjes terug!

[@eastwood4lifefan334]

Hi Donny, Fine update, & lots on show here, "The Last Run" i don"t think i"ve seen 🤔, that"s a superb set of The Fly movies from Scream Factory, which was i wasn"t a big fan of the movies myself but i have the seen the movies. That"s a nice looking set for "Hard Target" which i might just get a standard release, one of Van Damme"s best action movies, i do have the first three John Wick movies which i"ve only watched the first, i am planning a double bill to catch up at some point & then get the fourth movie. Another winner from Arrow Video as always, i wish most of the boutique labels would give the special treatment as much as Vinegar Syndrome do, all high quality materials in the packaging of their releases as always. Thanks for sharing Sir.

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

Hi Carlos, The Last Run is an excellent crime drama. I think you'll like it. Oh yes, Hard Target is definitely one of Van Damme's best movies. 30 years old and it still rocks! The Empire of Screams release, the Bruce Lee boxset, the up and coming Hellraiser 4K set, this is easily going to be a great year for Arrow Video. They are on fire! Thanks for watching and commenting, buddy! Take care!

[@fabianstark1309]

Thumbs up just for the Indiana Jones and the Dial of destiny -comment. That movie is awful, just awful piece of crap.

[@CinemaniacSeventy7]

The opening sequence of Dial of Destiny was superior to Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in its entirety, but after that it all goes downhill. Fast! Thanks for the thumbs up 👍
