Depends on what it is, usually there are no movies I need right away, 'cept for certain TV shows, like Dexter S5 I will have to buy when it is released, cost some more.


Don't know with play.com, it was only 2 CDs and that was like 2 weeks.

I have a bit of an obsession with movie soundtracks so I might have to get that one too!
Yes, that are too really intersting movies. 12 Angry Men is not the easiest, cos it all takes place in one room over the whole length, but I liked it, it was not as great as a lot of people say it is, but for a black/white movie from like 50 years ago it impressed me what you can do with almost no story and no more than a room. DITD is great, but it's different. Björk does a wonderful job acting, I actually bought the Soundtrack before, but I could enjoy it more after the movie, cos I now remember some of the scenes and that makes it fun. Recommend both to you, Louisa, not to everybody I know that a lot of peole wouldn't like them.

Yes, you're right, it's so bad, it's still funny to read it, what the hell were those translaters thinking? Were they on a very bad trip themselves? Lendemain de veille? Now I have a slight idea what you are talking about, we had the pleasure that it was simply called Hangover. Okay, it's actually called Very Bad Trip in Francec? That's surprising! But I found this:

Le titre français est inspiré de celui du film Very Bad Things dont le scénario est très proche.

I'm going to bring it plus some other movies I haven't seen yet to my babysitting job tomorrow!
Ah, don't wait forever, it's a really good family series. There is a movie too and an original series from like 1990, but that had only a couple of episodes. Really would like to watch at least the movie, I don't think I'll get my hands on the original series.
