Title: First!!
Post by: Patti Feinberg on March 01, 2003, 03:44:36 AM

I had to buy a DVD/kids gift; I went to a movie store. I went to the 'New Releases'

THERE WAS A BOX SET OF DARK SHADOWS!!!

I think it said like vol. 4-5?

Now this is a small store; only about 8 'new' releases..so I felt honored DS was there, right out in front!!

I showed my husband & daughter...walked around the store with it.

Duh...didn't look at it (I looked like the standard pic of Barn), but I didn't read it  :P

Anyway, that was my first time of ever seeing the ?? MPI ?? or whatever y'all buy.

(I bought "Signs" with Mel Gibson.)

I hear that is pretty scary, Patti. We're renting it this weekend.

  It's a different type of scary yet on the same level, very thought provoking IMHO. Now, my brother saw it and didn't think it was scary at all.

 :P I feel a closeness to  "Signs". My grandson was a "body double" for Rory Culkin in this movie. I spent some time with him on the set---unfortunately all I could see was MEL GIBSON!!! WOW! Oh yes, there was the movie----I thought it was very good-----scary, but definitely thought-provoking.  :o

I got that same thrill last summer Patti,
when I saw the first set of DS DVDs in the
Best Buys store. Even though I had decided
not to buy the dvds before this, since I have
so many of the VHS MPI tapes including the
episodes on these first DS DVDs, when I saw them- -I wanted them. I, too, carried them around the store, until I finally found my
husband again. He took one look at my face
and said let's get them. Unhappily when I got
them home, they would not player on my DVD
player. It said they were incompatible.
Something I may add that has never happened
before or since. So I took them back to the
Best Buys. I returned them and got my money,
which was against the store rules BTW.
I have heard a few other people had that
same trouble too, so I think some of the DVD
were flawed.
I would love to have the DVDs, but I will have to wait until I can afford them, which will be a long time.
Oh and congrats to Misty on seeing Mel Gibson
and her gramdson job on the movie Signs!

I loved 'Signs'! Thought it was a very interesting approach to an old SciFi topic.

And, Misty - Mel Gibson - whoa... :o

could NOT be more envious!   ;D
