If you don't like this film you have no soul. It is wonderful and makes me feel all warm and fuzzy, like when I get whipped by 5 big fat hookers.

I frickin love this move.

Don't get involved in a land war in Asia, or never tangle with a sicilian when death is on the line!

i can't play region 1 anyway. humph

anyone else?
Posted by chandler, 17:41, 6th December 2002:
 
cant play region one, whyever not mr cal? surely if it is a PC DVD drive then you can just flash the firmware, and if it is a box for the tele then you could ask it really nicely
Posted by jeff, 19:05, 6th December 2002:
 
cal, why dont you put it on your wishlist and hope someone will buy it for you? you could maybe ask for it from your secret santa. and yeah, i thought you of all people would hack your firmware.. or at least buy a multiregion player... yeesh, even my dad knew that...
Posted by Bex, 19:43, 6th December 2002:
 
.... It's my fault. I bought the player :(
Posted by cal, 23:48, 6th December 2002:
 
it's a lovely player. a very nice sony. but it doesn't support software upgrading - it would be a wires and solder job and it's too pretty to break apart.
Posted by jeff, 00:07, 7th December 2002:
 
erk.sorry :/ i feel bad now :(
Posted by Bex, 16:27, 7th December 2002:
 
No!!!!. Don't feel bad.

I knew I'd bought a silly one - though obviously not at the time.

In fact it was a secret ploy to stop Cal watching DVD's all the time :)
Posted by cal, 17:04, 7th December 2002:
 
yeah - now i can't buy region 1 porn :(
Posted by Bex, 17:18, 7th December 2002:
