@Zaranyzerak Hey Sean, I might send you these foreign horror movies in a year or two but I can't send 'em right now cuz I'm not in the situation... If you buy these let us know but if you don't buy 'em then I'll send these to you eventually...

@Zaranyzerak well Blakes 7 is my fave scifi show of all time :)

@Lauzzy81 LOL! "Let's see how many other strong guy franchises we can reference on the back to try to boost sales..." :) Conan the SUPERBARBARIAN!

@Fragminion A friend of mine used to work graveyard shift security at an old folks' home. He wasn't lucky enough to have a TV, but would often borrow Doctor Who novels from me to wile away the wee hours. :)

@Skullgrin140 Yeah, it's really because of WHEN it came out that it was lightened up so much, of that I have no doubt. Though it's also likely because Hercules and Xena were so popular that this even got MADE in the first place. I would love to see a new Conan series on HBO or AMC that keeps that dark and gritty tone of the original stories.
I always liked the TV show. I used to watch it all the time along with the Mortal Kombat live action series, which I also enjoyed. Interestingly, I think Ralf Moeller and Arnie are close friends in real life, which makes for kind of a fun connection.

@Ninkyo893 The Mortal Kombat series needs to come to DVD. I'd buy that in a heartbeat.

Some of the charcters and writing wa sok on the live action series but it just looked so damned cheap, I couldnt suspend disbelief. I watched some of the animated series online, I prefer that

@13evilpriest13 I guess having grown up watching low budget British sci-fi insulated me from dismissing things for looking too cheap. ;) Wobbly cardboard sets forever!

@KaraLVRogueLZ Honestly, as hot as she was, I wasn't wowed by her performance. As I said in the vid, I think the woman who played the recurring thief character would have been MUCH better. I could maybe see Rose McGowan pulling it off, not sure what that status is on that project though,. Seems to have been in limbo for quite a while...
