Not much went on today…other than the usual purchases of DVD’s to add to the ever growing collection. :) So — on with today’s bits (because I’m sure you’re all just incredibly captivated by what I choose to spend my money on…).<\/p>\n
Spartacus<\/a>: Yet another that I’ve been crazy enough to purchase sight unseen, based solely on the recommendations I’ve gotten on it — though it did seem to go quite nicely with my recent purchases of Ben-Hur<\/a> and Gladiator<\/a>. Besides, it’s a Stanley Kubrick<\/a> film, who I generally really like, and the DVD is part of the Criterion Collection<\/a>, who consistently does really incredible work with their releases. This is a 2-disc set with an absolute ton of extras…looking forward to spending quite a few hours delving into this.<\/p>\n Star Trek TOS Vol. 21<\/a>: Finally, Paramount releases more Star Trek episodes! I’m so hoping that when they decide to put out Next Generation and Deep Space 9 they do it in season sets rather than trickling out two discs of two episodes each every few months like they’ve been doing. Anyway, enough of the soapbox…this volume contains two of the most known comedic shows that Star Trek made — I, Mudd<\/a>, and The Trouble With Tribbles<\/a>.<\/p>\n Star Trek TOS Vol. 22<\/a>: Kind of funny, actually, since the first of the two episodes on this one fits right in with the gladiatorial theme I’ve got going. Two episodes on this disc, as usual — Bread and Circuses<\/a> and Journey to Babel<\/a>.<\/p>\n Okay, that’s it. It’s almost 2am, and I’m tired. Time to head off to bed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Not much went on today…other than the usual purchases of DVD’s to add to the ever growing collection.
